Rotation #327
Wisconsin -9.5 over Indiana (loss)
Wisconsin is a big favorite this afternoon that can cover today’s game. Indiana has the more experienced coaching staff, but they lack talent on either side of the ball to consistently compete in the BIG 10. The Badgers run the football well and have pretty good targets that can get themselves open against a weak Hoosiers secondary. Indiana won’t be able to keep up on offense if the Badgers are up in this game. The key to this game is the Badgers defense. Take Wisconsin.

Rotation #404
Ole Miss -3 over Texas A&M (push)
Ole Miss has the luxury of being the home team and has the better of the two defenses. The Aggies have a good coach in Jumbo Fisher, but their offensive line is young. The Rebels are a well-balanced team led by QB Jaxson Dart. Look for the Rebels to run the ball well behind a massive offensive line and for the defense to overwhelm the Aggies. The Rebels are one of the deepest teams in the country in terms of depth on their defense. Take Ole Miss.

Rotation #349
Georgia Tech +1.5 over Virginia (win)
The problem Virginia has is their need for offense. QB Tony Muskett is a young player with a weak offensive line in front of him. The Cavs offense line is severely young and will be manhandled by the Yellow Jackets’ front seven. Georgia Tech QB Haynes King has filled in well for Jeff Sims, and he has a lot of experienced players to throw the ball to. The primary key for the Yellow Jackets is their running game, which should run wild against a sub-par Cavs defense. Take Georgia Tech.

Rotation #391-392
Oklahoma/Oklahoma State Over 61.5 (loss)
The Bedlam Rivalry is one of the best in football, which showcases the two best teams in the BIG 12 at the moment. Both teams snap the ball quicker than average, so we should see a lot of drives from both teams. Both offenses can put together scoring drives and, at this point of the season, are better than the defenses. Sooners’ Dillion Gabriel should be able to find a lot of offense today, as should Cowboys QB Alan Bowman. The total is high, but I expect the game to go over it when the final whistle blows. Take the Over.

Rotation #379
Kansas +2.5 over Iowa State (win)
Kansas shocked the football world last year as they came out of nowhere to become relevant and, once again, are having a decent season. Iowa State has played great this year and always plays well at home, but the Jayhawks are the better team. Iowa State QB Rocco Becht could have better-skilled players to throw to, so the Cyclones will likely focus on the run game. Kansas has an outstanding group of quarterbacks. Jason Bean will take 100% of the snaps as Jalon Daniels is out again. Bean has a great running game and might have more targets than any team in college football. If Iowa State gets down early, they need more firepower to catch back up. Take Kansas.
