dam,according to the power rating formula for coming up with line's.OSU should be -4 ( for home field advantage ).
but when I use my point's outcome system, I have OSU winning by 30 pnt's.been using it for year's& it's usually very close to posted line ( unless it's just a bad line )
but its never that far off,especially when stat's are as comparable as they are..i double checked & it came out the same.dont look right????
I never said it was a gimme. I made OSU a best bet because of the matchup well in favor of them. Stava is as bad of a QB as there is. Wisky in the past was able to run play action because of their QB paly, not their running game. They have always been able to run the ball but this year they are much more reliant on it because of the lack of QB efficiency. Now if I know that, can you imagine how Urban is going to prepare for it? The coaching of this team plays a major role in my decision
YOU HELPED ME ALMOST GET OUT OF THE HOLE LAST WEEKEND 
BUT STUPID ME FIRED ON THE VIKINGS, WASHINGTON, GIANTS!!!! 
LAYED OFF AT4 BUT WOULD OF TAKEN SAN FRAN 
THEN I DOUBLED UP THINKING I CAN'T GET SWEPT BY TAKING PITTSBURGH. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
I HATE NFL!!!!!!
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SOX 
Jimbo will make sure there is no look ahead. BC can't score....Period. FSU's highly proficient offense will. I believe this is a rout and Winston is ACC Offensive Player of the Week

Illinois Over 57.5
This is the 2nd all time meeting between these two schools on the gridiron. Northern Illinois won at Purdue 27-20 as an 11.5-point underdog in 09. Last season the Huskies attained an unprecedented feat as they became the first team from the MAC to play in a BCS Bowl game. They eventually lost to Florida St. 31-10 in the Orange Bowl but it culminated a very successful 12-2 season. This is a team that’s 15-1 in their last 16 and 24-2 in the last 26 games overall. Besides the Florida St. game the only other loss in that span was in their 2012 season opener 18-17 versus Iowa. They were able to revenge that loss in their 2013 season opener winning on the road 30-27 over the Hawkeyes.
The Huskies are 3-0 on the season and are coming off a huge scare a week ago. They were given everything they can handle and then some versus Eastern Illinois before pulling out a come from behind 43-39 win, while failing to cover as a 14.5-point favorite. The defending MAC champions fell behind 20-0 at one point. The defense continues to be a major concern as the FCS school Panthers racked up 577 yards of total offense including 450 of those in the air.
The Purdue faithful yearns to return to the winning tradition that was established by former head coach Joe Tiller. Under his successor Danny Hope the Boilermakers went a disappointing 22-28 the last 4 seasons. Hope was let go and replaced this season by Darrell Hazzell the former head coach at Kent St. All Hazzell did last season was lead Kent St. to a terrific 11-1 regular season. His team lost in the MAC championship game to Northern Illinois 44-37 in overtime. That narrow defeat cost the Golden Flashes an improbable BCS Bowl berth. Hazzell took over a program at Kent St. that hadn’t had a winning season since 2001and in just 2 years reversed its bad fortunes.
Purdue has a record of 1-3 with its only win versus a FCS school Indiana St. 20-14. Last week they were pummeled at Wisconsin 41-10 and failed to cover as a 21.5-point underdog. Similar to Northern Illinois the Boilermakers have struggled defensively especially versus their 3 FBS opponents in 2013.
Despite their 3-0 start Northern Illinois ranks 115th out of 125 FBS schools in total defense allowing a whopping 491.0 yards per game, versus the like of Iowa, Idaho, and Eastern Illinois. The good news is the Huskies offense continues to be explosive ranking 17th nationally in total offense while also averaging 39.3 points per game. The Huskies senior Jordan Lynch is one of the best dual threat quarterbacks in the country. Lynch has passed for 662 yards and ran for another 404 yards in 3 games this season. This is nothing new since he threw for 3138 yards and ran for another 1815 a season ago.
The Purdue offense has hardly been dynamic in their first 4 games. However, versus a porous defense like Northern Illinois I look for quarterback Rob Henry to have a huge day, and the offense as a whole to have their most productive game of the season. The Boilermakers defense will have a difficult time keeping the Northern Illinois offense in check.

hey redsoxxxx, i'm really liking col/orest over 60,,,,
wonder if you thought the same, there both very pass happy teams.putting up 40ish points per game,and allowing a lot of points also
neither team can rush, so they wont be milking the clock.the defenses cant stop anyone either.....thanks for any thoughts.

Without giving it a look, I have to agree with both being almost completely reliant on the pass. They are both amongst the tops in the nation with their passing attacks and Mannion has been tremendous thus far. I will give this a look
