Week 13
(Friday, November 27th ) – Nebraska Vs Iowa
(Vegas Iowa -13 ) (Game Picker Iowa by 22.52 )
Nebraska got rolled by Illinois at home this past weekend 41-23 in embarrassing fashion. Iowa has been on a roll winning their last three games by three touchdowns or more against Michigan St., Minnesota, and Penn St. Iowa will have a huge mismatch with its 47th ranked rush offense versus the 118th ranked run defense of Nebraska. Nebraska’s run first offense will struggle against the 16th ranked Iowa rush defense. Look for Iowa to cover the spread in this one at home.
(Saturday, November 28th ) – Ball St. Vs Toledo
(Vegas Toledo -9.5 ) (Game Picker Toledo by 17.53 )
These are both two very talented offensive teams. The difference in this game will be that Toledo has a much better defensive team and will be able to get some stops. Ball St. has been horrible on the defensive side of the ball ranking 110th in pass defense. Toledo will be able to score early and often in this one and will be able to slow down Ball State with its top 30 defense. Look for Toledo to cover the spread in this one at home.
(Saturday, November 28th ) – Minnesota Vs Wisconsin
(Vegas Wisconsin -21.5 ) (Game Picker Wisconsin by 28.85 )
Wisconsin ran into a buzz saw in Northwestern last week and was held in check only scoring 7 points. This game, however, sets up really well against Minnesota as far as strengths and weaknesses. Wisconsin will have a big mismatch with its 23rd ranked rush offense versus the 114th ranked rush defense of Minnesota. Wisconsin has one of the best defenses in the country ranking 6th in rush defense and 9th in pass defense. Minnesota will struggle to move the ball on offense. Look for the angry Wisconsin Badgers to cover the spread in this one at home.
(Saturday, November 28th ) – La Lafayette Vs La Monroe
(Vegas La Lafayette -26.5 ) (Game Picker La Lafayette by 28.25 )
La Monroe is a pass first team with virtually no rush offense (125th). La Lafayette has one of the better pass defenses in the country ranking 19th but has struggled a bit against the run ranking 88th. With this in mind, La Lafayette should be able to stop the La Monroe offense in its tracks. La Lafayette will have a tremendous mismatch with its 32nd ranked rush offense versus the 128th ranked rush defense of La Monroe. Look for La Lafayette to take advantage of the strengths and weaknesses to cover the spread in this one.
(Saturday, November 28th ) – Oklahoma Vs W. Virginia
(Vegas Oklahoma -11.5 ) (Game Picker Oklahoma by 8.88 )
Oklahoma had an emotional game last weekend against its in state rival Oklahoma St. Now the Sooners will have to travel to a very cold Morgantown, WV to play a very stingy defense in West Virginia (27th in rush defense and 8th in pass defense). West Virginia will have a decent mismatch with its 25th ranked pass offense versus the 88th ranked pass defense of Oklahoma. Look for West Virginia to cover the spread in this one at home.
(Saturday, November 28th ) – Virginia Vs Florida St.
(Vegas Virginia -9 ) (Game Picker Virginia by 17.12 )
Florida St opted out of playing Clemson last weekend because of one late breaking Covid-19 diagnosis on the Clemson squad. It seems that Florida St may be flying the white flag on the 2020 season after having a horrible year thus far. Florida St has played a much weaker schedule than Virginia and ranks 103rd in pass offense, 109th in rush defense, and 107th in pass defense. Virginia’s only weakness has been its pass defense which Florida St. won’t be able to expose. Virginia should be able to move the ball at will on Florida St with its balance offense. Look for Virginia to cover the spread in this one.
