Had been waiting on this to hit 3.5 all week -- maybe I'm blind, but I don't get why the Illini are home dogs. While I do like PJ Fleck from his Western days (my Broncos would have been a playoff team in 2016 under Fleck, which I can't even fathom, had the current format been in place), what the heck do you mean Minnesota is favored? Oh yah! Yah! That's Fargo but most of the movie takes place in Minny. Think the Gophers can win, sure, but 3.5? The Illini's two losses are at current top-five schools Penn State and Oregon. Star wideout Pat Bryant (34-510-7) was in some question today but has been cleared so this 3.5 might not last too long.
