Picks from FOX Sports Betting Analyst Chris Fallica:

Northwestern's offense is a brutal watch, but my man Sammy P says to watch the wind off Lake Michigan this week. It should pick up speed quite nicely. That could seriously hinder the Hoosiers' passing game in this makeshift stadium that offers no protection from the elements.

PICK: Less than 42 points scored by both teams combined
