Iowa 10, Illinois 6 (Final)

[devil's advocate]Illinois' defense is nothing to write home about. They could give up 20 points to air. So they just might give up 15-17 points to Iowa.

Iowa's defense has been not-so-great, but not nearly as bad as their offense. And Iowa's defense seems to be built like a typical Iowa defense; stout against the run, not so much against the pass. On the surface, this seems to be a less than horrific match-up vs. Illinois, who is near the bottom of the league in passing efficiency. They might hold the Illini to 21 points or so.[/devil's advocate]

If I put v$ on this game though, it will probably be on Illinois. The Hawkeyes don't appear to have the speed to deal with the Illini option game.
Man....even in your devil's advocate scenarios, Illinois covers.

am i really getting ready to bet on Illinois?


I've made Vbank doing it the past 2 weeks. They are really that much better than Iowa. I do however always wait untill the last minute just in case of injuries or suspensions etc.
