UNI @ Illinois St.

I would pick UNI to win this if it was on a neutral field, but it's not. The Panthers are away from their dome & Illinois State has been really good at home, so I think they'll get the job done. The Redbirds can't make the special teams mistakes they did in Cedar Falls, though.

Here's my assessment of the matchups & my pick for the game:


      • Quarterbacks -- Illinois St.

        Running Backs - (push)

        Receivers/TEs - Illinois St.

        Offensive Line - (push)


        Defensive Line - Northern Iowa

        Linebackers --- (push)

        Secondary ---- Northern Iowa


        Kicking ------ Northern Iowa

        Punting ------ Northern Iowa

        Return Teams - Northern Iowa

        Kickoffs ------ Northern Iowa





        • Northern Iowa 16-21 Illinois St.

Total homer here, of course, but I'm predicting a win by the visitors. ILSU might have a mental block about UNI.

Cats 31
Crimson Crows 19

Sorry, D. I don't do that anymore. I've found out the hard way that no mater how much of a lead pipe cinch my proposition is, the minute I put $$ on it, it flips on me. Had I put $$ on my Cowboys the year they FINALLY beat the Steelers in the Super Bowl, the Steelers would have beaten us for the third freaking time.

No thanks....

Not interested in money. I collect welfare, make a ton under the table, sell drugs to children and have Obamacare. Thanks to folks like Tman and Cornhole Hogan, I'm set.

How bout the loser leaves cs.com permanently?
