With a reinstated season comes renewed betting lines, and Wisconsin may have some serious value according to odds courtesy of BetMGM Sportsbook.
The extremely heavy favorite, to nobody’s surprise, comes out of the Big Ten East. Ohio State is at -250 to win the conference, meaning a $25 dollar bet would only net ten dollars in profit if the Buckeyes do in fact win the conference.
The Badgers are tied for third-best odds, but present some serious value as the top team in the Big Ten West. Wisconsin is at +900 to take the conference title, with Iowa and Minnesota tied at +2500 being the next best odds for any Big Ten West team.
If Wisconsin makes it to the Big Ten championship game, which they are odds on favorites to do, a +900 number is extremely solid value in a one game Big Ten championship scenario. Will it be the Badgers and the Buckeyes meeting at the top during championship week? If you think it will be another Ohio State vs. Wisconsin clash, +900 is the number to hammer.
