Cam Camper and DJ Matthews Jr. have combined for 265 receiving yards and 1 touchdown, while AJ Barner has 4 receptions.

The Vandals are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 non-conference games and 6-13 ATS in their last 19 games in September. The Hoosiers are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games and 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games overall. The under is 11-5 in Vandals last 16 non-conference games. The under is 7-3 in Hoosiers last 10 non-conference games.

The Indiana Hoosiers smoked Idaho last year and are obviously the better team yet again here. However, Indiana doesn’t have a history of blowing the doors off opponents consistently, and they’ve had little success covering numbers lately. The Idaho Vandals also went toe to toe with Washington State last week, which should provide some confidence heading into this spot. I’ll take a stab with the points and the Vandals.
