 thurs pick
Louisville @ Rutgers
Strong Pick = Louisville -5.5
The big stat in this game that makes me go with the
Cardinals is that they are ranked 7th in the nation
in passing YPG, with 289.4. Although Rutgers is ran-
ked 2nd in the nation in rushing YPG, they did'nt
face to many teams that throw the ball, with the
exception of Pitt. Another stat that jumps out at
me is the balance of Louisville's offense ranked
2nd in overall YPG, and PPG, where the Scarlet Kni-
ghts rank 114th in passing YPG. This could end up
being the difference since they'll more than likely
have to pass more than they normally do. If the Car-
dinals go up by more than 2 scores early, this cou-
ld be a long night for Rutgers.

Louisville @ Rutgers
Regular Pick = UNDER 51.5
Don't have much time for a write up, but my main
attraction for the under is that both teams will
try to establish the run. Rutgers know they cannot
air it out with this team and will try to dictate
a game on the ground. |
