Big Ten Week Ten Lines/Over Under Predictions

Submitted by justingoblue on

Week nine lines and over/unders are up and that means MGoBlog's 238947324th best weekly post is back.

Recap (game, who covered, by how much, over/under, by how much):

Michigan State @ Wisconsin: MSU (10.5), under (-2.5)
Iowa @ Northwestern: Northwestern (5), under (-4.5)
Purdue @ Minnesota: Minnesota (19.5), over (+21)
Michigan @ Nebraska: Nebraska (11.5), under (-25.5)
Indiana @ Illinois: Indiana (13), under (-10.5)
Ohio @ Penn State: Ohio (12), over (+8)

Notes: MSU and Minnesota were upsets ATS, Ohio/PSU was a PK.

If you picked last week, see how you did here.

Week Ten (line listed is for the home team):

Illinois @ Ohio (-27.5, +/- 51.5)
Michigan @ Minnesota (+12.5, +/- 46.5)
Penn State @ Purdue (+3.5, +/- 51.5)
Nebraska @ Michigan State (+2, +/- 44)
Iowa @ Indiana (-1.5, +/- 55.5)

I know both Michigan and Penn State looked fairly bad last weekend (and Minnesota looked pretty good...against Purdue), but I don't see any way those games are that close, especially PSU/Purdue. For that matter, the over/under for Ohio/Illinois seems crazy low considering they just put up 35 on one of the three best defenses in conference. That game seems like it will be worse than Ohio/Nebraska was, although Illinois does have a history of playing tough in Columbus against highly ranked Buckeye teams. Like always, what do you say this week, MGoBoard?
