So @ ISU-R the predictor says NDSU is a 3 TD favorite (18.75 points).

Edit: updated sagarin predictor numbers

Sagarin says Illinois State is #20 in the FCS, and that there are 104 teams between NDSU and Illinois State in D1.

For further context, Sagarin says USD is #22 in the FCS, and that on a neutral field USD is actually a half point favorite over Illinois State.

If the october 25th game of Illinois State @ South Dakota was tomorrow, Sagarin says USD by a field goal.
Their secondary appears to be a weak spot for them. Perhaps helps inflate their run D stats?
