Analysis
Since 1989, conference road underdogs of +24 or less coming off an against-the-spread (ATS) loss are 187-93-5 ATS (66.8%) in Week 2 forward versus opponents with the same or better win percentage, provided one additional parameter is satisfied. This situation has covered the spread by an average margin of +3.8 points per game. Illinois arrives off a 34-16 loss to Ohio State in which they finished with three turnovers, which is significant in that college football teams with seven or more days of rest coming off a game in which they committed three or more turnovers are 213-140-3 ATS (60.3%) since 1989. Meanwhile, Washington enters off a 24-7 loss to Michigan, which is a bad omen for the Huskies in that college football home favorites coming off a game in which they scored fewer than ten points are just 293-389-22 ATS (43%). Finally, since 1998, conference road underdogs with more rest are 265-202-8 ATS (56.7%) versus opponents coming off a game as underdogs. Take Illinois and invest with confidence.
