Northwestern @ Penn St.

Penn St. -19.5
I’ve now seen Penn State enough to know they are not quite good enough to beat the elite teams, but are much better than their weaker opponents. Both teams are at 2-2 and the line is 19.5 points for a reason. Thinking these two teams have anything in common is the equivalent of thinking the knockout from your hometown is anywhere near as hot as the knockout on South Beach. Not even close. State College is hungry for a big-time effort from the Nittany Lions so lay the points and prepare yourself for a big exit from the month of September.

REVIEW: Penn St. 33 – Northwestern 7

Feels good to get one in the W column. A good Sunday and we will be back in the black.

Purdue @ Notre Dame

Notre Dame -14
Who ordered the offense? Because here it is. The Dean doesn’t like playing Over/Unders, but if I did this would be one of them. Purdue is giving up over 28 points per game so far this year. Even I-AA Indiana St. put up 35 points on the Boilermakers. Purdue’s only chance is to score with the Irish today, and I just don’t see that happening. Again, its like the hottie from your hometown, maybe her hometown innocence can keep her in the arena with the hottie from South Beach, but she’ll be left far behind before by the time its all said and done. ND’s offense got on track last week in the second half of the Michigan St. game and Purdue has shown nothing that resembles a viable defense. Take ND at home, give the points and make it a 4-star selection.

REVIEW: Notre Dame 35 – Purdue 21

Vegas and the Crowd were dead on with this game.
