The only way NU covers if they get a lot of early turnovers (which is possible, they lead the conference in takeaways). However, that's not going to happen - so I'll be bettiing all my V-cash on the Bucks.

"D" puts it foot on their throat, figuratively speaking. And the "O" comes out with it's foot on the gas and keeps it there till the end.  |

Man I hope we cover, and I like that we got revenge on our side, but with Tress as the coach 16 is a lot of pts. to cover against a good offense.

Basanez is something else. So often he runs the "just in time offense."
Buck's D will be runn'n and chase'n some very well concieved NW pass/run concepts.

Hopefully the revenge factor will help Northwestern figure out that they're Northwestern. Screwed up last week and gave the points. Not going to happen again.

I know it is early, but at this one site there is already a line up for the scUM game and we are +1. They go from loving us one weekend to knockin' us the next.
And also MSU is a 3pt. underdog against PSU so Vegas sees that game as being pretty close.

Seeing as the rule of thumb is home field being worth 3 points, Vegas actually thinks we're 2-points better of a team.

I think the home field is worth about 6 pts usually, but it's at least that big if not bigger in the The Game. scUM is going to need all the advantage they can get.
The NW game will be our 4th in a row over 40 pts - sweet!
