Pick: Creighton -1.5
The Creighton Bluejays are one of the most underrated teams in the entire country. They should be a much heavier favorite Saturday against St. Joseph’s. I expect them to roll on the road this afternoon. Creighton is 7-0 SU & 4-0 ATS in lined games this season. They are outscoring their opponents by a whopping 19.1 points/game this year. The Bluejays are 3-0 SU & 3-0 ATS on the road, winning by an average of 11.7 points/game. The Bluejays have three starters back from last season, led by the coach’s son in Doug McDermott. The forward is lighting up the nets for 23.7 points and 9.0 rebounds per game while connecting on 62.6 percent of his shots, 57.7 percent from 3-point range, and 81.0 percent from the free throw line. Creighton is 24-8 ATS in their last 32 games overall. As you can see, they have been a money-making machine over the last two seasons. The Bluejays are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games as a favorite. St. Joseph’s is 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games as a home underdog. Bet Creighton Saturday. -Jack Jones

Pick: UNLV vs. Wisconsin Under 126
Instead of worrying about which team will cover the spread in this game, I will take the under 126 on the total. The over may seem like a strong play with UNLV coming in averaging 83.0 ppg, but the Badgers are as good as any team in slowing down the game and grinding out a win, especially at home. Wisconsin is allowing just 39.8 ppg at home this season, holding opposing teams to just 29.6% shooting. Wisconsin has had just one game all season go over the posted total in this game. That was a 73-56 blowout win over BYU, which still only went over this posted total by 3-points. Wisconsin and North Carolina managed to score just 117 points in an earlier matchup. The UNDER is 11-3 in Runnin’ Rebels last 14 games after scoring more than 90 points in their previous game, 6-1 in Badgers last 7 non-conference games, and 4-1 in Badgers last 5 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.BET THE UNDER 126! -Steve Janus

Michigan State vs. Wisconsin
Prediction: Wisconsin Badgers -9.5 -110 odds (December 3rd 2011)
CLICK HERE FOR TODAY’S PREMIUM COLLEGE FOOTBALL PICKS

The Michigan State Spartans (10-2 SU, 8-4 ATS, 5-7 O/U) and the Wisconsin Badgers (10-2 SU, 7-4-1 ATS, 8-4 O/U) have both won four straight games and will both be looking to take home the bacon when they meet at Lucas Oil Stadium in the Big Ten Championship Game on Saturday. Michigan State is coming off an emphatic 31-17 win over Northwestern the last time out, while covering the NCAA college football spread as a 5.5-point road favorite to move to 3-0 ATS over its last three games. Wisconsin looked fantastic in routing beleaguered Penn State 45-7 to cash in as a 17-point home favorite and snap their modest two-game ATS winning streak and improve to 2-2 ATS over their last four games.

Analysis: While both teams have won four straight coming into this huge title game, I’ve got to warn Touthouse NCAA football bettors everywhere that it is the Wisconsin Badgers that are looking like closer to a lock than anything else if you ask me. Not only do the Badgers average a whopping 14 points per game more than the Spartans, but Wisconsin has also gone 10-2 ATS in their last dozen games following an ATS win and 13-3 ATS in their L/16 games following an SU win. Michigan State is 2-8 ATS in their L/10 games as an underdog between 3.5 and 10.0 points and a pitiful 0-4 ATS in its L/4 neutral site games. Wisconsin is 6-2 ATS in their L/8 neutral site games while the Home team in this series has gone 5-2 ATS. With both teams allowing a nearly identical 15 points per game defensively, I like the more explosive Wisconsin Badgers to get the job done with their often overpowering defense. As good as Michigan State quarterback Kirk Cousins has been this season (21 TDs, 6 Ints) Wisconsin signal-caller Russell Watson has been just a tad better in throwing 28 touchdown passes and an eye-opening three interceptions.

Wisconsin vs. Illinois
Prediction: Wisconsin Badgers -13.5 (November 19th 2011)
CLICK HERE FOR SATURDAY’S PREMIUM COLLEGE FOOTBALL PREDICTIONS

The Wisconsin Badgers (8-2 SU, 6-3-1 ATS) have won two straight games, including their 42-13 blowout of Minnesota in Week 11. The Badgers failed to cash in against the spread as an insane 29.5-point road favorite to fall to 1-3 ATS over their last four games overall. The Illinois Fighting Illini (6-4 SU, 4-6 ATS) have lost four consecutive games including their 31-14 loss to Michigan in Week 11. Illinois failed to cash in for college football gamblers as a 1-point home underdog to fall to a dismal 1-3 ATS over its last four games and 2-5 ATS over its last seven games overall.

Analysis: I’m going to encourage Touthouse college football bettors to play the Wisconsin Badgers to pick up the SU and ATS win in a game that looks more like a lock than anything else. The Fighting Illini are 0-4 ATS in its last four home games and a discouraging 8-19 ATS I its L/27 home games against a team with a winning road record. Wisconsin has compiled a near-perfect 8-1-1 ATS mark in its last 10 games as a favorite of 10.5 points or greater while also going 13-3-1 ATS in their last 17 games overall. The Badgers average a whopping 46.5 points per game while allowing just 15.8 per game defensively – and numbers like those tell me that Illinois is in big trouble in this contest!

Wisconsin vs. Ohio State
Betting Prediction: Wisconsin -7 -110 odds (October 29th 2011)

The Ohio State Buckeyes (4-3 SU, 4-3 ATS) should be feeling good after beating Illinois 17-7 as a 3.5-point road dog two weeks ago. They’ll also be well-rested for their Week 9 home date against the 15th-ranked Wisconsin Badgers (6-1 SU, 5-1-1 ATS) when the longtime rivals battle on Saturday in a prime time pairing. Unfortunately, the Buckeyes are facing a Badgers team that will be in a foul mood after suffering its first loss of the season in falling to Michigan State 37-31 on a last second Hail Mary. Wisconsin failed to cover the college football spread as a 7.5-point road favorite and saw its five-game ATS winning streak halted at five games.

I don’t think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out that the Wisconsin Badgers are an elite team that is not in the same class of rebuilding ballclubs as the Ohio State Buckeyes. Having said that, I fully expect the Badgers to win this contest by double digits to cover the college football betting line with room to spare. Wisconsin is averaging a whopping 47.4 points per game, good for fifth in the nation, while allowing a paltry 13.6 per game defensively (sixth). Wisconsin has compiled a stellar 9-1-1 ATS mark in its last 11 games as a favorite while also going 13-3-1 in its last seven games overall. The Buckeyes are 6-0 ATS as an underdog between 3.5 and 10.0 points and 6-1 ATS in their L/7 games as an underdog. The Home team in this Big Ten rivalry has gone 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings between these rivals, but I’m banking on Wisconsin to buck that head-to-head trends by recording a huge road win in this pivotal Week 9 contest.

Wisconsin vs. Michigan State
Prediction: Wisconsin -8.5 (October 22nd 2011)
CLICK HERE FOR SATURDAY’S EXPERT COLLEGE FOOTBALL PICKS

The Wisconsin Badgers (6-0 SU, 5-0-1 ATS, 4-2 O/U) remained unbeaten on the season by spanking Indiana 59-7 to cash in against the spread as a gigantic 38-point favorite to also remain unbeaten against the spread (ATS) this season. The Badgers will likely have a tougher time in beating the 16th-ranked Michigan State Spartans (5-1 SU, 4-2 ATS, 1-5 O/U) when the two Big Ten rivals meet at Spartan Stadium in this prime time matchup. Michigan State is coming off a solid 28-14 win over Michigan while covering the spread for the third consecutive game, this time as a 3-point home favorite. The Spartans will be looking to win beat the Badgers for the second consecutive year after beating their conference rivals 34-24 as a 3-point home underdog just last season.

Analysis: Nevertheless, I’m going to advise all college football bettors to back the Badgers to win this contest handily and cover the spread as a solid road favorite. While the Spartans have looked very solid in winning three straight games, the fact of the matter is that none of the Spartans’ past trio of opponents is in the same caliber of teams as the explosive Badgers. Not only is Wisconsin the No. 1 scoring team in the nation (50.2 ppg), but they’re also extremely stingy on the defensive side of the ball, ranking third in the country in points allowed per game (9.7). When you can score the ball like the Badgers – and routinely shut down opponents on the other side of the ball, then you’re opponent doesn’t stand much of a chance of winning. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in the L/5 meetings, but the Badgers have compiled a perfect 8-0 ATS mark in their L/8 conference games while also going 6-0 ATS in their last half-dozen games against a team with a winning record. Michigan State is 2-6 ATS in their last eight games as a home underdog and I just don’t see them covering the spread against the powerful Wisconsin Badgers.

Wisconsin looks like the team that will benefit the most from Ohio State’s temporary downfall. However, the Badgers do have some issues, as they have to replace solid QB Scott Tozlien and RB John Clay, the 2009 Big 10 Off. Player of the Year. Fortunately, they have a speedster in James White (5-10, 202) returning, who ran for 1,052 yds and 14 TDs, who will be the change-of-pace back to workhorse Montee Ball (5-11, 214), who had 996 yds. At quarterback, soph. Jon Budmayr (6-0, 205) is the likely starter, but he’s not coming off a great spring. Senior WR Nick Toon (6-3, 213) is the top leading returning WR but is coming off a broken left foot. The O-line is usually the dominant factor on the team and even though they lost two starters to the NFL, they should be strong again. On defensive, they have to replace J.J. Watt (7 sacks), but should still be strong overall. Senior DE Louis Nzegwu(6-4, 245) will need to step up on one side. The tackles should be the strengthof the defense with all four in the rotation returing. At linebacker, they are young, with soph. Ethan Armstrong (6-2, 232) moving to the middle to compete with Chris Borland, who missed the spring with a shoulder injury. In the secondary, they return All-Big 10 corner Antonio Fenelus. They need to improve on the other side. The non-conf. schedule includes UNLV, Oregon State and SouthDakota at home, withNorthern Illinois played in Chicago. They also host Nebraska and Penn State at home with Ohio State on the road.
