Illinois St - Rutgers

Game is in Cancun. Haven't seen a line but I'd guess the Redbirds are underdogs. Anyone see if there is TV?

Hope we can get a W. We have similar teams in terms of youth and height. Hopefully playing in a ballroom will throw some people off and we can take advantage.

Vegas has the Birds at +4.5 (opened +5)

Would be a nice stepping stone win for the birds. They are a young team and a win over a BCS school would give them some confidence.

Ill. St is a 4 point dog

Hopefully ISU can show the rest of the valley they are no slouch tonight and add to the BCS win list.

Hey, ignore what BirdmanBB said, don't sell yourself short, you're a tremendous slouch! :dance:

This would be a good win --- not because Rutgers is especially good, but because IlSU was picked to finish towards the bottom of the conference. A win would really look good for the conference.

I heard Rutgers might acually be decent this year. After ISUR lost to Fresno State on the road, I'm not expecting a win but it would nice for the valley....

Illinois St leads 13-9. Looks like a win to me!
