Illinois +26 vs Wisky

[JTrain]

Wisconsin is a team that rarely scores 26 points. They have just finished arguably the toughest 5-game stretch that any Big 10 team has faced or will face all season.

Illinois is not good but they have shown flashes of being decent. There's a chance this game will still be competitive going into the fourth quarter. But even if it isn't, I feel good about the points.

i like that pick alot....... i like illinois as a pick in general and i agree that wisconsin isn't a high scoring top team.

but i have been HUGE FADE material on these types of games recently

one mock draft has both illinois DE in the first round........... not sure why it doesn't show up more in the team's record.

but i guess it's 2 players out of 30+ key players for illinois...... reminds me of when illinois had simeon rice and kevin hardy on D. i think they were maybe 2 of the top 3 overall picks in next draft. still got completely slaughtered by ohio state.

Wisky has scored 26 or more points just twice this season. Those teams are 5-6 Akron and 2-7 Michigan State. Illinois has NOT been shut out this season. JTRAIN fails to mention that he cannot get 26 points any more. That was the opening line. Still, 24 1/2 to 25 is not bad at all. Pretty good wager here.

I hope you realize that Illinois is terrible vs the run.

Yes, I see it has moved all the way to 24.5 at heritage. I still like the value there. I was able to get 26.5 Sunday night.

If you got it on Sunday night, why didn't you post it on Sunday Night, or Monday, or Tuesday, or.....You get the drift. No one will believe that.

Sorry Bigdaddy I will try harder next time

c'mon it's not court room testimony.......... i generally consider most picks on here handicapping picks unless they are labelled as "line shopping" so the pick should be robust to a few points movement.

[gojetsgomoxies]

these strong team favorites who aren't explosive offenses has been such a winner for me for what seems like forever.

not working that well this season......

still got the backdoor and the "illinois gets something going" hopes.
