Northwestern @ Purdue 7pm PREDICTION: Gophers 31 Aggies 13 FRIDAY NORTHWESTERN @ PURDUE: This is a quality matchup for a Thursday night opener. The intrigue will be with the health of Wildcat QB Thorson. The Boilers Utah State @ #11 Michigan State 6pm will likely rotate Sindelar and Blough at QB. I give the lean to Purdue at home W. Kentucky @ #4 Wisconsin with more returning experience but this will be a good one to open things up inside the conference. PREDICTION: Boilers 20 Wildcats 13 SATURDAY UTAH ST @ #11 MICHIGAN ST: The Aggies gave up (215) yards per game on Oregon State @ #5 Ohio State 11am the ground to rank #115 overall in 2017.

I watched Illinois run on the Hilltoppers last fall Appalachian State @ #10 Penn State and win 20-7. Senior QB Drew Eckels with his first career start at Madison, Northern Illinois @ Iowa 2:30pm good luck with that. The Badger offensive line should close up shop around half-time here.

PREDICTION: Hoosiers 24 Panthers 14 KENT ST @ ILLINOIS: Coach Lovie Smith needs this win. Watch for QB AJ Bush to lead the Illinois offense under new coordinator Rod Smith. The best news for the Illini is that their freshmen are a year older. Kent State appears to have a lock on last place in the MAC East under new head coach Sean Lewis. PREDICTION: Illini 35 Golden Flashes 10. TEXAS STATE @ RUTGERS: I understand if you don’t want to read this Numb3rs from the prediction and I am ok with that.

Temple’s Harrison Hand is a prospect who fits that bill. Coming off of a season in which he tallied a team-leading three interceptions and five pass deflections, he is looking to carry on his success as he prepares to play at the next level. Draft Wire recently spoke exclusively with Hand about his competitive mindset, his preparations for the draft, his NFL bloodline, and what he brings to the table as a potential draft pick. JI: One of the calling cards in your skill set is your physicality. What does a defensive back have to do to obtain that physical edge? HH: To be honest, it’s really a mindset and wanting to be aggressive. There’s a lot of corners that don’t really like contact, but I say it’s really just gaining the strength and the mindset of being strong and really wanting to overcome the opponent by strength: show them that you’re the top dog.
