This is an 8* play on Rutgers.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics:

As note that Indiana is just 4-8 ATS in its last 12 on the road and only 2-4 ATS in its last six as a road favorite, while Rutgers is 4-2 ATS in its last six as an underdog in the 10.5 to 21 points range.

The bottom line: No outright upset, but look for RUTGERS to sneak in through the back door against an Indiana team that gets caught looking past.
