PENN STATE -7 7 STAR
Penn State is outscoring teams at home by 30.3 points per game. On defense, overall, they are allowing just 3.8 yards per play to teams normally getting 4.6. They have a slightly better than average offense, getting 5.5 yards per play against teams normally allowing 5.2.
Despite their record, where four of their six games have been at home, Wisconsin allows foes to get more yards per rush and more yards per pass than they normally get.
INDIANA -3 3 STAR
Michigan State's defense to the tune of 14 receptions for 160 yards and six touchdowns.
Last season, the Spartans suffered a 46-21 shellacking by Indiana in which Hardy caught four touchdowns. In 2005, Michigan State blasted the Hoosiers 46-15, but Hardy scored both of his team's touchdowns.
Indiana isn't just getting it done on offense either. The Hoosiers lead the nation in sacks, averaging nearly five per game. Michigan State is tied for fourth in the nation in sacks, averaging four per game.
NORTH CAROLINA +7/ 7 STAR
The home team is 5-1 SU in UNC’s line.
South Carolina has a very deceptive record. USC ranks 11th of 12 teams in rushing offense and ranks 11th in rushing defense, ahead of only Ole Miss in both categories.
Defensive touchdowns have rescued South Carolina this year.
SMU+9/ 7 STAR
The Mustangs are led by quarterback Justin Willis, who is 22nd in the nation in total offense with 1,204 yards passing and 283 yards rushing. He's thrown eight touchdowns against seven interceptions.
SMU coach Phil Bennett said the Mustangs, who have lost three straight, used their off week to work on tackling and fundamentals following the loss to UTEP. He believes his team has made progress and looks at the trip to Southern Miss as a positive despite the Golden Eagles' likely testy mood.
