A long streak is on the line as Penn State plays at Purdue in a Big Ten Conference intradivisional game to highlight the first full week of the college football season.

The Nittany Lions have won nine in a row against the Boilermakers. Will Penn State extend its streak or will Purdue beat its Pennsylvania rival for the first time since 2004?

Penn State leads the all-time series, which began in 1951, 15-3-1.

Purdue’s last win over Penn State was a 20-13 victory on Oct. 9, 2004, the Boilermakers’ most recent victory in State College, Pennsylvania.

Pick by FOX Sports Betting Analyst Sam Panayotovich:

“I spoke to a couple of professional bettors who are down on Purdue and will be looking to short the team quite a bit. It’s tough to disagree with those sentiments, given how much the Boilermakers exceeded expectations and how much offensive firepower they must replace.

“Let’s buy low on James Franklin’s bunch and lay the points.”

PICK: Penn State (-3.5 at FOX Bet) to win by more than 3.5 points
