The Northern Iowa Panthers didn’t look good in their only game against a division 1 team, and now they get to go up against this Virginia defense. Fun, fun, fun. NIU just doesn’t see teams like the Virginia Cavaliers often, and it’s usually a culture shock. Big line and a look ahead spot for Virginia with Baylor on deck. I’ll still lay the points.
