ESPN has given us a stinker for Friday Night Football as the Scarlet Knights of Rutgers travel to face the Black Knights of Army. Since it is the only game on it will attract the attention of football fans and football bettors alike. Luckily I have found a few angles that have isolated a great play in this game.
Rutgers is in the dreaded conference sandwich. They come off a tough game against Pittsburgh and face UCONN after this game against Army. The classic look ahead. Army has some reason to look good in this game. First of all they are on the big stage, it does not take a genius to see how home teams have done in the national spotlight and they give it their all. Only ESPN on a Friday would allow Army to host a game and Army has some revenge for a pounding that they took the lat time they faced Rutgers. Army has a bye week after this game and gives it their all knowing they will get some rest.
Rutgers has plenty of injuries to deal with. Rutgers offensive lineman Caleb Ruch (ankle), left guard Desmond Wynn (shoulder), linebacker Ryan D’Imperio (stinger), safety Patrick Kivlehan (leg), wide receiver Keith Stroud (undisclosed), linebacker Marcus Witherspoon (leg) and wide receiver Marcus Cooper (undisclosed) are questionable versus the Black Knights.
The difference between this game and the last game is that Army has a new defense. Army now blitzes and runs plenty of stunts to try and offset the offense and surprise them when they can.
Scarlet Knights are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a road favorite and 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 games as a favorite. The Black Knights are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games in October.
ESPN 2 may have scheduled a stinker but don’t be surprised if you end up seeing a very good game and a upset from a ten point dog.
