Penn State Football Opens As 43.5-Point Favorites Over Nevada
With more preseason hype than seemingly any other Penn State Football team in this century, the Nittany Lions will open the season with three out-of-conference opponents, starting with Nevada from the Mountain West.
The hype, combined with Nevada’s 3-10 record in 2024, has the Nittany Lions as 43.5-point favorites per DraftKings, with an over/under not listed yet. Penn State’s last win by more than 43 points came in week three of the 2024 season against Kent State, as the game finished 56-0.
Over the past five seasons, Penn State has been one of the best teams against the spread in the country. With the 12-team college football playoff, taking care of every team on your schedule is even more important.
DraftKings has also set the Nittany Lions’ win total to 10.5 games this season, which is tied for the highest win total with Oregon and Ohio State. There is no team in the country with an 11.5 win total.
