The money should be coming in strong at PA online sportsbooks ahead of tonight’s nationally televised primetime tilt between Michigan and Penn State. Can the oft-criticized Wolverines silence the doubters with what would be a key upset road win (or at least cover the spread), or will Penn State keep its perfect season alive and perhaps grab yet another cover in the process? Let’s run through the best odds, promo offers, and top odds boosts before pivoting to some picks and predictions in our full Penn State vs. Michigan betting preview.

My guess is that if you’re a fan of either Penn State or Michigan, you have probably heard this week that Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh has been absolutely B.R.U.T.A.L. against Top 25 opponents since taking over at his alma mater prior to the 2015 season.

Harbaugh was supposed to wash away the disappointment of the Rich Rodriguez and Brady Hoke eras, while restoring Michigan to its place among college football’s elite programs. That hasn’t happened to this point as the Wolverines prepare for No. 7 Penn State with an almost unthinkable 1-9 record against Top 10 teams under Harbaugh. They will need to reverse that trend starting tonight in order to stay alive in the Big Ten East race and ultimately have a chance to meet the considerable expectations that were placed upon them prior to the season.

The Penn State defense is second in the country in sacks, has allowed only five touchdowns in 82 drives, and has limited Big Ten opponents to 1.2 yards per carry over its first three conference games. Despite owning a 3-1 record head-up against Penn State since Harbaugh took over, Michigan is up against it tonight as a big underdog in what will be an electric atmosphere at Beaver Stadium. Keep in mind this will be a “White Out” game.

It’s worth noting that Penn State obliterated Michigan two years ago, 42-13, the last time these two teams played in one of these “White Out” games.

It’s about that time again. Thursday night is here, Week 7 of the NFL regular season is upon us, and it’s time to see if we can start off a big weekend of football betting across PA online sportsbooks with a win in our Chiefs vs. Broncos betting preview.

I believe in Andy Reid.

Fatal last words if uttered in January, I know, but if said during the regular season throughout Big Red’s 21-year head coaching career, that belief has been rewarded more often than not.

It’s okay. I know you’re scared, but say it with me…I believe in Andy Reid…I believe in Andy (gulp) Reid.

To ease your concern, Reid has won 10 or more games a remarkable 13 times throughout his first 20 seasons, accumulating a .612 winning-percentage in the process. That doesn’t just happen by accident.

The Chiefs looked poised to coast past the double-digit win mark once again this season after getting out to a perfect 4-0 September start behind early-season MVP candidate Patrick Mahomes, but have uncharacteristically sputtered in back-to-back October losses at Arrowhead Stadium.

The Broncos, meanwhile, struggled through a winless first month before rebounding on the strength of a suffocating defense that has allowed a total of only 13 points combined in back-to-back wins, setting up a crucial AFC West clash tonight in Denver.

You know already know who I’ve got in this one because I believe in Andy Reid, baby, and I’ve got plenty of reasons why, so let’s get into it.
