That was a big part of my reasoning.......Screw stats with in State rivals.....Also the fact Cousins will probably throw a pick in the 4th.......Posted a thread about hour ago about the atmosphere here at the game. Line is already at 3.5 now........GOOOO Blue

Wow Hugh

Yes I have like 2 page reasonings. What I am referring to is if somebody is serious or curious about a particular game then PM and I will give my opinion more in depth. If I were to type it all up it would be like a 8 page post who the hell would really read that.

The "do your homework or buy a service" was a little joke meant for somebody not that serious. It is a little saying me and a friend throw around to each other inside joke and actually funny as hell if you knew the story. Sorry if you took it the wrong way or it offended you.

And yes I fully expect to run right around 75% in Big Ten games

No tout if I lose I lose and go back to work for  next weeks games. GL to you though I hope u hit all of your games

Michigan Wolverines

69 total

47 first downs

USC

Do you think Illinois can score over 10 points at Happy Valley

There is a reason why it is called a teaser bet........To tease you right out of your money. Good Luck Hope You Cash It.....Not a bad one but Illinois might not score more than 7 points, and don't sleep on Indiana scoring points even if they are in garbage time.Not pumping up Denard I fully agree that you have to prove yourself for a little while. However sometimes it is what it is....The kid has talent Yes I do expect him to have around 400 total yards and 3 scores. Have no reason not to beleive that....He will be slowed at somepoint but that might be at Ohio State....Only team in the Big Ten that has the team speed to keep up with him on every down

1.) I watched the game 2 times actually. To say state dominated ND is crazy. ND moved the ball with ease they opened the game scoring opened the 4th quarter scoring and overtime. All key times to come through with scores in a game. If ND did not have 3 tournovers this would have been a 10+ win for them. State had a run before halftime and opened the 3rd quarter with the momentum. ND with stood it on the road never the less. There was no domination on either teams part it was a good game. I feel ND had control throughout amd were the better team. 

2.) I have never said there was not value in taking State. I dont really care about value or the sharps. Just stating who I beleive is going to win the game. The reason States rushing D's numbers look good is because they have been ahead and teams have been throwing against them. The problem is that their stud LB Jones is not very good laterally and will struggle to keep up with U-M speed. Is U-M going stop state when they are pounding the ball up the middle on us? Probably not but if we get on them early which we should with the edge at home and they are trying to play catch up then Cousins will make a mistake and turn it into a 2 score game in the 4th.

Trying not to show bias. Michigan State haas the best LB in the country and can run the hell out of the ball. They are a good team just dont like them in this spot and I have no problem going against Michigan. As a matter of fact right now I would take Iowa and Ohio State against U-M. I'm not on the heisman wagon with robinson and stay skeptical when it comes to U-M. Two things I dont do though......Look at last year and watch espn. Thanks for the reminder though.

I have to disagree with you about Mi St. Their D is solid but the only 2 oppenents they played put up 31 and 24 against them both games at home. They should not have beat ND and if they didnt pull a fake fg from the tricks they would not even be ranked and nobody would be taking state at all

Posted before last weeks games went 4-1.......I know Big Ten Football simple as that.......Tail me or fade me......Promise I will go 75%+ on the year in Big Ten Football. Read last week post for the reason. I use the forum sometimes to laugh and sometimes to say ohhhhh good point let me check that out. Thanks to all that help me!!!!!!Just trying to give back to the things I know.

All lines 5 dimes pick in Bold

Minnesota +22.5 @ Wisconsin

I'm not going spend a lot of time on any write ups if you are curious pm me. I have this game at Wisc 34-20. So best bet is to take the points.

Illinois @ Penn State -7.5

Have it at 28-14 state so laying looks good.Penn State O is subpar but D is good. Illinois O not good on road giving them 14 is generous. Illinois put everything they had into last weeks game now on road Penn State coming off loss. Easy winner

Indiana + 21.5 @ Ohio State

I got ohio state at 38-23 winners. Last week against Michigan let me tell you that Indiana is not that good. Michigan D is bad (and it is my team)And Indiana O is good. Ohio State is way better than last weeks showing, trust me. It is always a tough game for the buckeyes at Illinois. Indiana passing Offense though can put up a late td or two.

Michigan State @ Michigan - 4.5

Michigan is my team, I'm not being a homer I have thought hard about this game and have tried my best to take all emotions out of it. The line tells me that the professionals put it at almost a push on a neutral field maybe even favoring state a little. Have no idea why my thought is because of last week with state winning vs Wisconsin at home and Michigan playing close at Indiana. For one Michigan D is bad I admit, However Wisconsin is a little overrated and playing at State and losing did not surprise me as I picked state as a dog. I like Michigan by 2 scores 38-24. I know state has what like #20  rush D?..... Yea but have they played a D-Rob.....Especially on the road? NO......This is the hottest ticket in Michigan right now even more so than our unemployment rate. Not hot on laying points in a in-state rivalry at all, but truely feel that state QB will give us at least 2 opportunities to make a play. If we make one of them we should cover. Will be at this game go wolves.( such a homer)

Purdue @ NorthWestern -9.5

Hardest game of the week for me. First of all not really sure about either team. Purdue is coming off a bye wich hasn't happened since like 03. What I do know is their O is not typical Purdue O Their on like 2nd string everything. Playing on the road can not be good. I initially had N'western 27-20 looked into it a little more and it should be -5.5 but will lay a little extra at home one for the fact that N'western should have covered last week (only game I lost) I would like to have a play on the over/under but it seems like it is on mark. If I had to pick I would lay off this game because of the uncertain but that is not me(lol) N'Western has a better chance at home to cover than Purdue does. Nwestern might not be as good as their record but they are better than last weeks showing.I don't think Purdue can score enough.

Good Luck to alllllllllllllllll.............Do your homework or buy a service if your lazy

Finally conference schedule goes into full swing. I dont know how people usually make their picks or do their capping whatever you want to call it. Maybe they throw darts or kick their dog to see how loud he barks or use other people or services whtever works for you go with it. I live in Big Ten country and have my whole life. I read all the local papers and tv shows and even party at some of the schools from time to time. It's just easy for me to focus on a couple of matchups a week instead of scimming through the huge football cards. Anyways this works for me and run about 75% throughout the year......I know yea right your saying. 75 cmon man bla bla bla.......Not bragging just will post Big Ten football through out the year and see what happens. Good luck to all this weekend.

Odds are 5 dimes. Picks in bold.

Ohio State @ Illinois under 50.5

N'Western -5.5 @ Minn

Wisconsin @ Mich St +2

Michigan @ Indiana over 65

Penn State @ Iowa -7

I do have write ups and reasoning ask me individually if you care
