The Ohio State Buckeyes (7-1) have moved up to No. 3 in the national polls thanks to a dramatic comeback win over the Penn State Nittany Lions last week, but they cannot afford to look past the Iowa Hawkeyes (5-3) this Saturday.

The Buckeyes are listed as 17-point road favorites on the betting lines after opening at -16.5 and briefly dropping down to -16.
The Hawkeyes have lost 12 of the past 13 meetings but have gone 6-2 against the spread in their last eight games against Big Ten opponents. The schools have not met since 2013 though, and the previous three matchups have all been decided by 10 points or less. Sportsbooks will likely need Iowa to come through as a home dog in this spot.
