Decide by FOX Sports activities Betting Analyst Chris Fallica:
My tour of the Large Ten ends in State School, the place the Nittany Lions are a bigger-than-expected favourite over 4-0 Illinois. That is a kind of traditional video games that James Franklin will cowl. He is 17-0-1 towards the unfold (ATS) since 2000 when favored between seven and 24 factors. However on the sphere, I believe they will have success throwing the ball and forcing the Illini to play from behind — one thing they actually haven’t had to do that 12 months. Nebraska had alternatives to get a cease and stand up a number of scores on the Combating Illini however simply couldn’t do it. I believe the expertise stage at Penn State is a lot better than that of Nebraska and count on the Nittany Lions to win by three touchdowns.Â
