College Football Week 9 Picks & Predictions: Illinois vs. Oregon
Illinois vs. Oregon
Last Week was the first big spread Oregon covered all season. Oregon was favored by 17.5 against Boise State and won by 3, 24 against UCLA and won by 21, 22.5 against MSU and won by 21. Illinois held tough on the road against Penn State and have straight-up won as underdogs against Kansas, Nebraska, and Michigan. Oregon will probably have some explosive plays, but Illinois has played the 'bend but don't break Defense' well (22nd in Scoring defense – 18.1 PPG Allowed), 'playing up' in games as underdogs. Oregon is a little beat up coming into this game, and with rain in the forecast, they may be looking just to win and get out healthy as the clock ticks down late. Oregon should win this game by double digits but three touchdowns is probably a bit much in this one.
Pick: Illinois +21.5
