Penn State Opens As -18 Favorites Vs Illinois

[LandoComando]

I'd agree if the game was early and at Illinois, but this game is at home and at primetime. That's why I don't think the spread will come down that much. BUT if it did come down to 13, I'm in!

Hope you're right--Ideally we win by 17

Not sure I have the stat accurate, but PSU at home in primetime under JF is 12-2. The losses: OSU.

Penn state as a favorite greater than 7 under Franklin has won 27 in a row and is 21-5-1 vrs spread during that streak

Boy, for all of Franklin's faults, that is SUPER impressive. Truly, if this guy could just find a way against OSU and MiCh

Wow. That line is huge.

The way Ill can now throw the ball, and they do throw it well I would be worried about Bielema against that 4-2-5 defense. They can still run the football too. While not a juggernaut I expect Bielema to find a way to keep it tight but hoping for the men in Blue to have a convincing win. This game should be a good barometer of where we are as a team.

No doubt home field advantage with a whiteout type crowd is huge for this game. Hope we come out on fire.
