OSU one of national title favorites

Looks like that OSU-USC game is just as big as we thought it would be.
The lines are out, and Ohio State is one of four teams with 6-1 odds to win next season’s college football national championship. USC is the top favorite, at 3-1.
Joining the Buckeyes at 6-1 are Florida, Georgia and Oklahoma. LSU is listed at 12-1, and Missouri has 14-1 odds.
This shouldn’t really surprise anyone, with a strong defense returning most of its starters and the offensive excitement generated by Terrelle Pryor’s arrival on campus. Say what you want about Todd Boeckman, but he was an All-Big Ten quarterback last season.
If you have a few bucks lying around, you could put them on 150-1 Arkansas, just in case. Atta boy, Bobby Petrino.
