Illinois and the Over

[t-wizzle]

The Illini have been underrated all season. Their QB Scheelhaase brings a lot to the table with his running and passing game and is very difficult to gameplan for. Baylor doesn't play defense (and neither does Illinois for that matter which is why I like the over) so I fully expect Illinois to run up and down the field all night. Baylor meanwhile is overrated as they beat up on the bad teams but play like garbage against decent competition.

There's a reason Illinois is now the slight fave at most shops

I like it... Good luck

I might play Illinois team total over 32 rather than game total

This is a good play as well. Illinois puts up 5 tds in this one.

agreed! Good Luck

Illinois actually has been somewhat solid defensively this year. Minus the 67 against Michigan (22 in OT) and 38 to Minnesota, the Illini haven't given up more then 27 in any other game.

In fact, they only gave up:
24 vs Ohio St
13 @ Penn St
26 @ Mich St
23 @ Missouri
22 vs N Illinois

I'm leaning Illinois in the game.

True, but the only one that impresses me is the Ohio State one. Penn State was awful on offense the first half of the season and the Missouri game was the opener so both teams may have been flat. If you watched them at the end of the year, you saw they couldn't stop Michigan, they had trouble with Northwestern despite the fact that Northwestern was playing with their backup QB, and they gave up 38 to a crappy Minnesota team. However, I do agree that their defense is better than Baylor's.

I couldn't help myself. Don't play teasers, kids

I really like Ill in this spot.

Illinois ML opened at +108 and is now -118.

There's your over 32. Illini were easy money.
