you forgot SMU -10.5 over UTEP

seriously though Tech @ -7 and Texas @ -6.5 seems a little high.

K State doesn't impress me at all. Of course, it's still early in the season and they could put it all together this weekend. Still, I think the line is about right.

Just got off my the phone with my nephew who attends UT...we both seem to agree Nebraska will be UT's toughest test on defense. That meaning neither of us are all that impressed with OU's offense but acknowledge they can kill you every other way.

I think Tech -7 is about right. I think they'll rack up 700+ yards, and 40 + points.

I don't think it is impossible for A&M to win, but they have to control the clock with Courtney Lewis, and keep Farmer on the bench. Lewis is light-years better than Farmer.

Booston finally says something I agree with! Lewis will be special . . . mark my words.

I don't think that line will stand. I look for the final to be about Tech -3.5 or 4. I wouldn't take Tech -7, but think it'd be a good bet at -3.5. That's just way too many points in a game where the final score could be 52-55 either way.

Has Tech ever been that big a favorite?

Hell, it's already down to 6.5.

This line will move like crazy.

jessup...lines rarely move that much. we'll see. looks like the odds makers watched your secondary. i do think a large dose of lewis could be the answer for A&M.....last team to score a TD wins.

I know they usually don't move that much, and I'm not saying they will this time (although I think they might). All I'm saying is that -3.5 would be a much easier bet. [After reading my post, it looks like I am saying that]

And like I said, it moved a half point in the first hour+.

so, a line can easily move 2-3 points, especially when you have 2 crazy teams like ours. Betting on this game would be a mistake, and a sure-fire way to pi$$ away your money.

Are you sure it isn't -70?
