COLUMBUS, Ohio -- For being a heavy favorite to repeat as national champions, Ohio State's last two games have been cause for concern.
That's true because the Buckeyes' offense hasn't moved the ball well. And, of course, Urban Meyer hasn't yet settled on a permanent starting quarterback.
But in Ohio State's schedule, there aren't a lot of major challenges until late November when the top-ranked Buckeyes host No. 2 Michigan State.
According to VegasInsider.com, Ohio State is a 31-point favorite over visiting Western Michigan despite the fact the Buckeyes haven't covered the spread in each of their last two games.
