  "account": "Week 10 of the Big Ten football season offers a promising slate of games, with several notable matchups to watch. Nebraska has struggled in recent weeks, but they cover the spread against Illinois at home. UCLA is an impressive 8-0 against the spread this season and should cover against Minnesota. Maryland's defense is struggling, making the over on the total against Purdue a solid choice. Oregon is playing well offensively, but Ohio State's defense is elite, making the under on the total a wise bet. Penn State is favored against Washington, but the spread has moved in Washington's favor, prompting a bet on the under. Wisconsin has a chance to bounce back against Rutgers, with Wisconsin covering the spread at home. Finally, Northwestern is favored against Iowa, but Northwestern's home record makes them a strong underdog in this matchup.",
