          Here's the deal.... NIU is a much better team it's that simple. People see a MAC school on the road favored against a Big12 school and they cream their pants betting on the big12 school. The fact of the matter is NIU was really good last year finishing 11-3 and they are even better this year. Kansas on the other hand was HORRIBLE last year, and not much better this year. Dr. Bob can suck it cause this is gonna be a loss for him

              NIU's running game is superb. that is a fun offense to watch.

                  NIU rolls over a pathetic Kansas team this weekend, its obvious the books are getting what they wanted at the line opening at 5 going up to 6.5 now back down to 4. Alot of action here expect NIU to cover easily winning 30-14 best case scenario for "rock chalk"...

                      How is the UNI defence? Especially the run defence? That's what KU will want to
                      do. KU defence is terrible and there is no doubt UNI should score easily. I was thinking over for sure.

                        FYI UNI is University of Northern Iowa....NIU is Northern Illinois University but that's just sematics haha.

                        Their defense isnt world beaters, they gave up 24 last week I believe although much of that was once they had the game well in hand. Kansas is gonna score some points, but not nearly enough to stay within 4.5. The over is probably a good play as well

                          I agree, NIU is one of the best plays this weekend. I have been a Jayhawk fan for a long time, ( basketball that is ), and this KU team will be one of the worst that we have had. I like NIU big this weekend, GL

                              Yeha I'm thinking it woudl be a little like last nights NFL game with NIU pulling away. Bu the line dropped from -7 in a day -4.5 because why, the pubic suddenly started playing Kansas Wednesday?

                                From what I've heard and seen it looks like it's because Dr. Bob has Kansas as a play...doesnt scare me though

                                  Ha Dr. Bob is driving the public to Kansas over the past few days. I agree it seems like it's Big 12 home team rationale driving action toward Kansas. How is their secondary?

                                    NIU's defense overall is just average, their offense is what's most impressive though. NIU only gave up 106 passing yards last week but that was to Army. I just don't see how NIU doesnt win this game by double digits. Kansas is terrible, and the only game I see NIU losing this year is at Soldiers Field to Wisconsin

                                      Yeah I watched and played NIU all last season, definitely high powered. How is Kansas' secondary? I would think not good if they let McNeese have 24 pts, and reading news it appears they're new and unfamiliar. But I assume they have bigger boys out there so I'm trying to gauge play size on Kanas' defense.

                                        Just making a bet for a few points at SBR. Would never put real money on Kansas. I rode NIU last year for money, but I like the home team getting 6.5. I think NIU wins by a field goal.

                                                  Wow 2.5?!?!?! I must be missing something because I don't see how it's possible for NIU to be giving so few points to such a shitty Kansas team

                                                    Dont see that line anywhere. If it exists it's at a local, but doubtful.
