I do not understand the Wisky-PSU line

14 to 15 points? Seriously? I see it as a one score game. 20-17, 24-20, something like that. Seems like easy money to me.

Wisconsin will run it up (the butt) on PSU.

Penn State is not "horrible." They have a legitimate top 10 defense. That offense, though, that's another story...

The lines in some of the rivalry games are pretty brutal.

Usually, big underdogs are a good bet in the major rivalries.

Oregon is giving 28.5?

Bama at -21.5?

Heck, a sorry-ass UDub is giving 6.5 to a team that almost plays some defense (by PAC standards).


I don't even know what to think about those.

Of course, Auburn is pretty rough, too, but 21.5? I don't see it.

Dude - Auburn handed Alabama the most embarrassing loss (perhaps) of the entire Iron Bowl series last year. The payback is too immense to even think about. I say 'Bama by no less than 30 - maybe more like 40. I get the feeling that they will pull out everything in this one. Auburn's just not good this year.
There's certainly no good reason for Auburn still being in the Top 25.

The offense is rapidly improving. In case you missed it, the old man is gone.

What was Joe doing in the booth other than scratching his balls and bitching about the weather? In any event, the PSU offense has scored 14 and 20 points respectively since JoePa's departure. It's going to take a bit more than that to stub Bielema's toe.

I don't know about the point spread but I would be all over the under in the game...Penn State has given up over 20 points just twice. I'm picturing 17-13 Bucky with two scores by Ball.
