This is for you Carl Winslow

Big Dobs TGIF Special:

Rutgers +2 @ Louisville

A few things at work here as 5-1 Rutgers travels to play 2-4 L'Ville.

There are two solid defenses matching up here - Rutgers leads the nation in +/- and is 2nd in sacks. Luoisville has kept a handful of good offensive football teams in check, but they haven't created the turnovers Rutgers has. On offense, Rutgers is loaded with potential but hasn't been able to put the pieces together on a consistent basis, Louisville has just sucked.  I don't see either team having a lot of success on the offensive side of the ball and would expect something similar to the first half of the Pitt/Rutgers game. Eventually in that game Rutgers won the field position battle and put some points on the board, and I just don't think Louisville has the athletes to match up.

Plus, Schiano is a beast on Thursday and Friday night games - I can't bet against the guy in primetime.

Rutgers 27 Louisville 13 - Confidence - 4 out of 5 suitcases full of gold bars
