Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take #135 Illinois Fighting Illini over Maryland Terrapins (12 p.m., Saturday, October 31 FS1). I don’t expect Maryland to get much of a spark after firing Mike Locksley. With the remaining staff facing uncertain futures in College Park, keeping this team focused could be a challenge. Illinois still has a bowl berth within reach, and this matchup represents one of its best remaining opportunities to pick up a win. The Illini have won the last two meetings with Maryland, taking last year’s matchup 24-6 after a 27-24 road victory in 2023. Bret Bielema brings the experience to keep Illinois moving forward, and his team has won two straight against opponents stronger than the Maryland squad it faces today. Take the Fighting Illini. Don’t miss Doc’s Sports Weekend Card, featuring top plays in the NHL, NBA, UFC, and Breeders’ Cup. Sign up now and put 55 years of handicapping experience to work for you!

Jacksonville State -3 (-118)
We’re taking the rested team in this spot. Jacksonville State hasn’t played since October 13, and that bye gives the Gamecocks time to heal up, game-plan, and prepare for the long trip to Las Cruces. New Mexico State has no such advantage.
The matchup points the same way. New Mexico State’s pass defense is giving up over 224 yards per game, and we expect Jacksonville State’s staff to attack that early, build a comfortable lead, and then lean on the ground game to close it out.
The ATS numbers back it up:
Jacksonville State is 4-3 ATS overall and a perfect 3-0 ATS as a favorite of 3.5 points or more. The team has handled being the expected winner.
New Mexico State is also 4-3 ATS overall, but just 1-3 ATS as a bigger underdog. The Aggies haven’t been able to keep up when they step up in class.
We think this number closes at -3.5, so grabbing -3 now gives us a little value.
Let’s cash some tickets!
