Week 3 of the 2022 NCAA college football season includes a showdown between the Toledo Rockets and No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes. The Rockets were dominant in their 55-10 win over UMass last week, highlighted by Toledo rushing for 234 yards and 6 touchdowns on 37 carries.

Meanwhile, it was business as usual for Ohio State. The Buckeyes didn't break a sweat in their 45-12 victory against Arkansas State. OSU quarterback C.J. Stroud was at the top of his game, throwing for 351 yards and 4 touchdowns, with 184 of those yards and 3 TDs going to wideout Marvin Harrison Jr.

Ohio State State enters this contest as the favorite on the spread. This 7 p.m. ET clash also features a total of 62.5, which is fairly high as far as the rest of this week's college football projected totals.

Toledo vs Ohio State Prediction & Pick

Though Toledo and Ohio State have only met three times over the years, it's been the Buckeyes who've won each of those meetings. With Ohio State outscoring Toledo, 114-22 over that stretch, it isn't tough to see why the Buckeyes are so heavily favored this week.

Things also don't look great for Toledo after losing six of its last eight games against the Big Ten. On the other hand, Ohio State is a perfect 10-0 in its last 10 games against MAC opponents. At the end of the day, the Buckeyes are a top program for a reason and I expect them to make an example out of the Rockets.

Final Score Prediction: Ohio State: 36 | Toledo: 10

Toledo vs Ohio State Best Bet

While I expect Ohio State to win, a 31.5-point spread is fairly daunting. Since the Buckeyes haven't performed well against the spread lately, I don't believe they'll cover. The final score should still be lopsided, just not by 32-plus points in OSU's favor.

Bet: Toledo +31.5 (-106)
