The Week 5 Hype

College football is officially peaking. After the Iowa Hawkeyes pulled off that legendary last-second upset against Michigan, the vibes are immaculate. Now, Iowa has a chance to prove they're main character material when the Ohio State Buckeyes roll into Kinnick Stadium. Ohio State is currently favored by 14.5 points with an over/under set at 44.5.

If you're looking to get skin in the game for the Week 5 lineup, sportsbooks are dropping nearly $3,000 in total bonuses for new users. Real talk: it's a massive W if you play it right.
