The early odds for Ohio State vs. Georgia in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl have been set by our friends at Tipico Sportsbook, and for the first time this season, the Buckeyes will enter a game as the underdog.
And it’s not just a mild underdog, but a point spread of an entire touchdown, at -7 in favor of the defending champion Bulldogs. The line really hasn’t moved that much since it was released the day after all the bowl game matchups were set, but don’t be surprised if the spread moves just a tad bit towards Ohio State because the trend has been more money coming in on the Buckeyes, but not enough yet to really move the needle.
There’s no doubt that it’ll be a tall order for Ohio State to go into Georgia’s backyard in Atlanta and beat the No. 1 ranked team in the country, but at least the Buckeyes get a swing at trying to shock the world.

We’ll keep an eye on this line as we get closer to kickoff, but for now, head coach Ryan Day and his staff can play the underdog card to help motivate the team as it prepares for the trip down south.
