Through seven conference games each, Michigan has an average per game pt differential over 30+, including on the road, while Maryland is only break even. But here's the elephant in the room: the big show down NEXT WEEK with Buckeyes for Big Ten east title! Serious lookahead here! Wolverines desperately can't afford to lose anybody during the Maryland cakewalk! I'm wondering if Wolverines have the game in hand by halftime or shortly thereafter, they might be wise to rest key players and start inserting a number of backups (though not empty the bench completely) That's what I would do and I bet that's what YOU would do too, though unsure what Harbaugh will instruct his team to do in this event. It would seem unquestionably prudent though! It's not just the B10 east title on the line, and a crucial rivalry vs OSU at that, but also a shot at a playoff spot and maybe a national title! Given the stakes, and the wisdom of Michigan yanking key players in the second half, I wonder if a Maryland backdoor cover looms here. Am I the only one who thinks this?Jacksonville State -318 *BB 5u; JMU Dukes -333 *BB 3u; Oklahoma -13 -490; Liberty -16.5 -400Adding LIVE BET after Purdue punts on opening drive: NWU -145 *BB 10uBad play calling by Purdue has allowed NWU to keep a tenuous 6 - 0 lead....that likely won't last though...Damn....I'm on NWU to win for big bucks! but we just got lucky as spunky Boilermakers were driving then fumbled at midfield. NWU offense is hit and miss though. Purdue is missing a top pass rusher but are still smothering Bryant on almost every dropback Now they are knocked out of FGA range...but down the ensuing punt at the 2! Still 6 - 0OMG we just got lucky AGAIN, with only 35 ticks left from the 2, Purdue throws an INT at the 20!!And then the NWU dummies miss a makeable FGA with a kicker who had only missed one all year....NWU has to slow that Purdue pass rush. They do that and they win easily.
WOW! Muffed punt by Purdue at their own 20....I wonder now how NWU will FCK-UP this golden opp....Nope.....they DID manage a FG off a very lucky break....
