Mich St -24.5 v Illinois :Illini pics 2-1 ytd

[/ QUOTE ]
Can I get a write-up of this going beyond "Illinois is teh suxxor, fade fade fade," please? I agree this is a good bet if MSU from the first half shows up, but MSU from the second half (talking ND game, of course) has very little chance of covering this, I think. Personally, if not for you making this pick, I'd be leaning heavilly toward Illinois here, especially now that I could get +26.5. It just seems like a lot of points for a team to lay when they're so primed for a letdown game, and have their undefeated, sixth ranked, in-state rival in a week. Convince me Michigan State will be focused enough that I shouldn't throw my money away betting ON (gasp!) the Illini. Ok thx bye.
