OK. It’s time for Week 4 in the Big Ten, one in which the No. 3 team in the country will be sitting home because of Coronavirus concerns with an outbreak within the Maryland football program. Yes, Ohio State now has a bye-week for the game against Indiana the following weekend.
As we do each week during Big Ten season, we’re bringing you our expert picks on all the league games. Also, as an added bonus you didn’t know you even craved, we’ll throw in six of the top games across the slate of all the college football games for the week. We’re the judge and jury on that one. It’s called our Pick Six and there are some pretty slim pickings this week.
As a reminder, if there’s an asterisk next to the pick, that means the team will win, but not cover. We get our odds from BetMGM. In the event of a tie, George Washington settles it via the old coin-flip.
INSTRUCTIONS: Make your pick against the spread. For example …
– If you think Ohio State will win -3.5 over Michigan: OSU
– If you think Ohio State will win outright: OSU
– If you think Ohio State will win, but NOT cover: OSU*
Here we go for Week 3 in the heartland with the standings being updated each week after all the games. After completely falling on the sword against the spread the first two weeks, we’ve bounced back a wee bit.
