The Vegas Strip sportsbooks trying to slow down Matt Rivers is the equivalent of Eastern Mennonite University trying to stop Alabama.
The free pick Saturday is on Penn State -6.5 to Northwestern according to Matt Rivers of OffshoreInsiders.com
This is just too cheap of a price if you ask me and a game that just cannot entirely be passed over. I am a believer in Pat Fitzgerald and really do like this Northwestern team. Dan Persa is an athletic quarterback who can kill you with both his arm and his legs and all in all the Wildcats are an improving program that is well coached and fairly talented. Heck Northwestern even slipped into the top 25 a few weeks ago.
But with the above said the superior program is still clearly Penn State and especially so in Happy Valley. To be getting under a touchdown in this road spot is giving Northwestern a bit too much credit here. Robert Bolden is a talented young signal caller and is expected to be healthy enough to go here. I’m not saying that this is Joe Paterno’s greatest team ever but the Nittany Lions just upset Michigan at home and have been looking a lot better these past few weeks. Evan Royster is a player and after appearing to finally get their act together the Nittany’s are a solid bargain today only laying a tad more than a handful.
Yes I know that Ohio State is on deck and it could lead to a little bit of a look ahead situation for PSU but I’m just not really feeling that will be the case and in the end the two loss Wildcats will become the three loss Wildcats.
Free pick: 27-17 Penn State
For more information: Matt Rivers did it again last night as Central Florida came through to make it 9 winning days in the past 11. The profit has been there in a major way and will continue to be there as I am going for that jugular and dropping the hammer!
The biggest weapon in my arsenal is here, a 500,000*, on a noon underdog that is getting way too many points and is going to absolutely rock the hut. A pair of bonus 200,000* plays as well; Alabama-LSU and Temple-Kent. Three plays in all including a 500,000* and three winners in all. 3-0 today baby! Click now to purchase
