2. Washington at Indiana (-6.5)
First Navy, now Indiana? Yes, both teams are squarely in the discussion. You have to love this sport! The Indiana Hoosiers are 7-0 and 4-0 in the Big Ten. It has not been a fluke either, as the Hoosiers are beating opponents by an average of 35 points per game, number one in the country. Indiana is hosting last season’s national runner-up, the Washington Huskies, and this game certainly got more interesting on Sunday. Indiana’s starting quarterback, Kurtis Rourke, injured his thumb and is out “indefinitely.” Tayven Jackson played the second half against Nebraska as IU handled the Huskers 28-0 en route to the 56-7 blowout win. Jackson is now QB1 for at least this week, and Indiana needs to keep winning to keep their College Football Playoff hopes alive. IU still plays at Ohio State, and the Hoosiers likely need to finish 11-1 to get into the 12-team field.
