[NU Sports] odds

[Jonathan Hodges]

There are usually not lines for games against FCS (I-AA) teams out of Las
Vegas (although some offshore sportsbooks may put out lines especially for
the first game of the year); this is usually not done as there is far less
information available to make well informed lines for the FBS vs. FCS games
and things can get kind of crazy for the bookkeepers.

Do note that Jeff Sagarin's computer ranking/score margin predictor does
include FCS teams, and predicts NU to win by 28.92 points.  Another stat: NU
has won it's last 4 games against FCS opponents by an average score of 36-6.
