This is the game that stands out to me for next week's college football card. The Wildcats are much better than their 2-4 record and Penn State isn't as good as their 6-1 record. The Nittany Lions have a really solid defense but the offense is just flat out anemic. The running game has come around but they still struggle to put up points on the board.

Northwestern nearly knocked off a then-undefeated Illinois team in Champaign and followed that with a blown 10 point lead to lose to a really good Michigan team. I think what we are seeing with Northwestern is that they are right on the edge of being a decent team but they just can't put together a whole game. Since Dan Persa has come back the offense has looked really good and I think that this is the week the Wildcats put it all together. This is a really big game for them and they will be looking to avenge a loss in Happy Valley last year. Keep in mind, Northwestern was leading 21-0 last year before blowing that game.

Like I said, PSU's defense is stout, but Northwestern has the weapons to give them some problems and move the ball down the field. No one is better at betting Penn State games on this site than me. Trust me on this one fellas.

Northwestern +4 -110 (4x); ML +155 (1x)

[The Bet Master]

Possibly the last chance for Pick Six to get a win.

Not betting the game yet...may tease it...But Penn States offense is absolutely pathetic, and I don't care how good there Defense is, if they allow 10 points to a "decent" Northwestern Offense, I don't know if Penn State can get in FG range 4 times in that game to win.


good bet.

Northwestern will put up 20+

[t-wizzle]

The Greek holding +3.5 here. Very telling.

Just about every book still has +4. Grab it now before it drops. This one will close at best 3.5, probably 3.

Don't understand your unit allocation assuming scale 1-5. 4 pts turns the game from a 1 to 4.

This isn't a good bet. Penn State has a lot more to play for and is the better football team.

Yeah, and PSU won 35-21... Why would anyone have faith on a team against another team who scored 35 unanswered points on them just the previous year?

[priskilla22]

2010 - PSU 35-21 over Northwestern
2009 - PSU 34-13 over Northwestern

Not to mention, PSU dominated Iowa, and Iowa just dominated Northwestern. There isn't much to suggest Northwestern will hang around in this game... PSU's offense isn't very good, but the same pair of QB's they'll be using Saturday had 35 unanswered on Northwestern last year to win 35-21.

[priskilla22]

And just to compare the defenses a bit... PSU allowed 3 points to Iowa, and the very next week, Northwestern's panty wearing defense gives up 41 to them.

PSU's 4th string defense would start for Northwestern.

[Louisvillekid1]

love it

Ok wiseguy, you seem pretty confident in Penn State. Let's make a wager on it. I get Northwestern +4. Whatever you wanna bet priskilla.

I was actually more trying to figure out why you are so confident in such a bad football team?

You seem to be from PA... are you a Pittsburgh fan? Just seems like you hate PSU to be honest.

I'm a Big 10 football junkie, big Illinois fan, and I can tell you that PSU will by far be the best defense Northwestern has faced this year.

PSU isn't great... that 21 ranking is probably about right... but Northwestern is ranked around 60th or 70th probably, so I'm just trying to get some justification for this play.

[No coincidences]

Bouncing back and forth between this and Purdue. Methinks I'll just pound the shit out of both of them.

[Brock Landers]

Northwestern has big problems, to bet on them is suicide

Zero defense

That's it? I thought you had some kind of inside info on locker room issues....

[Muscles]

Playing on the road is a pretty tough thing to do in any conference. NW hasn't had a fully healthy Persa for most of the season and trust me that guy can deal. PSU isn't as good as their 6-1 record goes. I'm all over NW +4 but hesitant on the ML.

This will be the worst defense PSU has seen in a few games, and this will be the best defense NW will face all year.

[Pin Fish]

lockit up against Brock .....NW win outright..

[priskilla22]

Ha, Brock is on the right side here. PSU hasn't lost to Northwestern in a long, long time. The games are usually blowouts.

PSU is better than last year and PSU beat NW 35-21 last year.

F the game.......I'm trying to figure out how priskilla has 1,100+ posts in 27 days. That's JJ Gold pace right there.

I haven't lost a Penn State bet in 2 years. Take it for what it's worth. I know this team like the back of my hand.

[Dutch]

NW looked pretty average against a pretty average Iowa team. I see no value in betting on NW this week.

[t-wizzle]

And no, fukk pittsburgh.

I've seen every Northwestern game. Their defense is bad, but it is mostly bad decisions in the secondary. They give up big plays on messed up assignments, or a CB getting burned deep. Their run D is not that bad. Illinois could not run at all against them. And they held Michigan very well until the 2nd half. Yes, the Northwestern D is bad, but this may be their best match up with a weak PSU passing attack.

The offense will score points. They outgained Iowa by 100 yds. They just made a few costly turnovers (did the same in the Michigan game). I think NU offense scores 24+, and I don't think PSU will score 24. I think NU D steps up this game.

NU 28 Penn St 17

PSU is gonna win I'm pretty sure. They might win by 3 or 10.

No way PSU gives up 28 to NW.

[priskilla22]

The difference here is that PSU is significantly better than NW.

Then how about if Northwestern wins, you leave the forum. Will you no longer have a pulse if that happens?

[priskilla22]

Keep betting on a team that never beats its opponent and is far and away inferior talent wise.

PSU dominates Iowa. Iowa dominates Northwestern, and you're all over NW against PSU? Not bright.

[priskilla22]

Sure, if PSU wins, you leave. Deal.
