The battle for the Apple Cup is what these clubs battle for on the college grid-iron, but it’s all about bragging rights tonight as the Huskies invade Pullman to take on the 21st ranked Cougars. What a difference a year makes as it was the Cougars that were installed as underdogs in both of their meetings last season. No doubt Wazzou deserves to be the chalk in this spot due to their stellar home play, but I’ve got a feeling the Huskies will get the better of them in this spot. We all know that Wazzou would love nothing more than to slow it down and bore you to death. However, that could prove to be fatal tonight with the size the Huskies possess. Washington is a much different team this season that can readily adapt to play the slow style of play due to big men Brockman and Hawes. I’m looking for Wash to ride these guys to at least a cover if not a SU win in this spot. This might be a younger Husky bunch, but they still remember dropping last years game at home to these same Cougars, and they’d love nothing more than to return the favor this time around. Expect a very game effort from HC Romar’s kids tonight, and don’t be shocked if they hold the bragging rights until they meet again.

Todaythe play is Washington Huskies +5!!

Today, I say bet on Purdue +5.5.  Just one week ago Purdue rolled up and smoked the Wolverines as 5-point home chalks! They cruised the entire game, and ended up winning by a comfy double-digit margin. The Boilers took care of business against these same Wolverines and yet they find themselves installed as the same type of dogs on the road this time around. I know Purdue hasn’t been the greatest on the road this season (2-6 SU RD/NEU), but they put forth a solid effort their last time out at Wiscy and covered easily as double-digit pups. I believe they’ll carry the confidence over from that game, and they certainly know they can handle these Wolverines with ease if they get right back to doing what they did only a short week ago. Michigan certainly is a completely different animal in Ann Arbor, but these teams are so even in terms of talent that you just have to take the points on Purdue here. This contest will be much more competitive than the first time around, and I feel it won’t be determined until the final minutes of play.

The bet is Purdue +5.5 !!
