Ok we can all agree on one thing. The Coogs will win. S.Miss will be the first to tell you that. The problem is the game is not a pick'em.They have a 14 point window to make their backers money. The players are too stupid to realize the monetary value of this game. But the coaches from both teams must know the significance of Houston winning. 

I would take S. Miss first half and Coogs and the over second half.

Lets think about this for a second fellas! If we want the line to drop on SMU & HouU we have to talk about SMU right? If we want to see the line move up then talk about how good is HouU right? We have to be a litle smarter guys! At this point it depen witch side you on. ( Lines Up or Lines Down Concept ) my point is we are the one that controlling the Lines! ........

Houston isn't necessarily a square pick, but I wouldn't be scared one bit to fade them. They're defense is absolutely abysmal. I remember a couple of years ago they let UTEP's RB score 3 80 yard TDs on them. Any team with a pulse on offense shouldn't have a problem scoring on Houston.  

UH is only allowing 20 ppg this yr. Get a clue or read a boxscore.

UH's top 2 defensive players are Juco's Sammy Brown and DJ Hayden and once they got the defensive scheme down mid-season our defense has been fantastic.

Houston sports radio interviewed the D coordinator for Houston Cougars this morning and asked how is it that the defense has turned around since that UTEP game. Regarding the UTEP game he just said it was a short week and we got caught with our pants down, because we didn't get in the repetition we needed in practice.

The Houston Coogs Swiss Cheese defense is no longer a plausible handicapping method. 

Exactly.  Houston has given up 16, 7, 17, and 13 in their last four games.  Their D has stepped up recently.

Forget how much money will be lost if Houston does not win. Larry Fedora is coaching for a pay raise and to get a bigger coaching job somewhere else so rest assured USM will come out ready to play. IMO this game goes over and USM keeps it close enough they will have an opportunity late in the game to steal it. Over and USM are the plays here... BOL

If u look at how the teams have played USM has never been a dog to Houston by this many points.  As a matter of fact, USM has owned Houston for most of the time that they have played and was only beaten by Houston by 14 pts once.  Line did open at 17, and would of been easy to take USM then, but with with the line jumping to 14 more difficult.  85% are on Houston and over 90% for the over.  If the line does move closer to 17 again, would take USM for sure.

Ya I was wrong. Way wrong. At least I said Baylor would pull away late and win by 14+ in a previous post in this thread. LOL like that matters anyway.

Always good to hear you have no gambling talent. Make me feel good all over. 

Im pretty sure Atlgettingpaper has won every bet he made. He probably even won the bet of the Braves making the playoffs up 9 games with two weeks left in the season.
