IU Indy vs. Green Bay Prediction

I’m on IU Indy here. The line isn’t outrageous and if you take Green Bay in this matchup, you’re pretty much saying that the Phoenix win the game, and even though IU Indy is the closest thing to Green Bay’s level right now, I’m not buying it. The Jaguars are the better team here and I like the moves that Paul Corsaro has made to help improve IU Indy. It’s going to be a process for the Jaguars but I think they’re trending upwards while the Phoenix still have a bad team and an even worse coach. Give me IU Indy on the road in this one.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: IU Indy -1.5
