College Football
Ball State +17.5 over Northern Illinois
It would be a challenge to find one person who bet on Ball State tonight. Northern Illinois is getting close to 90% of the money. This Ball State team has players on it from last year when they were ranked #12 in the nation coming into the season. Ball State is at 1-8 on the year and I don’t want to state that they are a good 1-8 team because 1-8 is horrible, but they have been in a lot of close games and I think they deserve a little bit more respect with this number considering they have owned NUI in the past few meetings. Northern Illinois has some QB issues which should be too much of a concern however its hard to get on an offense roll when players don’t know who will start and when a QB doesn’t get all his reps in practice. I am not calling an upset, but I do think Ball State plays it closer than the line is set. Take Ball State.

Rutgers -2 over South Florida
Rutgers has win the past few meetings when South Florida had Matt Grothe at QB now today they have a backup freshman who can run the ball well, but they will be missing their top receiver this season. Rutgers is good at stopping the run and if they can contain B.J Daniels they should win this game. Rutgers has struggled on offense a bit this season, but I like what they have done the last two weeks on the road. Look for the Rutgers defense to force Daniels into mistake situations. Take Rutgers.

NFL Football
Bears +3 over 49ers
Alex Smith was a former #1 pick in the NFL and is getting his second shot to prove he is a winner. So far to date he has not proven that. He has been better, but you first have to get the feeling of being a winner before you can be favorites in a game. Look for Jay Cutler to have a field day against a bad 49ers pass defense that will be even worst with Nate Clements sidelined for this game. The 49ers have offensive weapons, but without their starting Left Tackle and a QB who has proved nothing the edge clearly goes to the Bears. Look for TE Greg Olsen to have a big day. Take the Bears.
