both teams can play some D's if they want too...leaning towards the under myself but I told myself not to play any under in the early bowl games after that Navy/Wake game.

Both Defenses are overated because of the competion they have faced this year look at the games vs teams that had decent offenses and you will find your answer and Yes I have this in the 50's for tonight.  GL

Is it possible that TCU's defense could be to fast and over pursue the Broncos?

As I was looking at the head to head stats for this game a huge revelation hit me !
 
 
Boise State's numbers are skewed due to the huge home field advantage they have with that God awful blue turf. If you contrast their home and away numbers with decent teams this year there is a HUGE difference.

You actually have a really good point.  I literally will not watch their televised games because of that GOD AWFUL field.  What idiot thought that up?!  Tell you this much, they should be shot.

I do agree Boise St is very average on the road
And this is not the same team that beat O U they are not even close to that good
TCU has the upper hand I think in this game but I strongly belive that each one of these teams score  25 points  tonite
I watched the TCU and OU game this year and TCU did not keep  O U at 35 points O U did not play very well early in the year . Just look at the U T - O U game. The Team that played in the Big 12 champions hip is 10 times better than they were when playing TCU.
TCU Def is ok they are not great by no means.
Boise gave up 35 points to NEVADA that means there D aint that great either

BSU was up 24-3.  3 Interceptions by the BSU quarterback directly led to the Nevade comeback.

Anyone believe this will at least go over 36? I have this game as a last leg of a ten point teaser and I bought down the o/u 46 and then took over 36.

It did open at 50...

This game is a total toss-up, so big NO PLAY on spread or ML.  I like the 1st Half under with more conservative play until the teams get comfortable.  Then see what they give you at halftime and pound the over.  This is it, so look for both teams to let it all hang out in the 2nd half no matter what has transpired prior.  GL

fellas, lets toss all these last 4 and 5 game stats and scores,,bottom line , both D's look stout, both may blow up on the O side,,take the 3.5 in a toss up type game, i'm on the under here as well as I fully expect one if not both the D units to show up large - out for one more round of shopping and some gym time too --holla

That is true but both teams have plenty of time to prepare for this game.....anything can happen, that's why the UNDER is so low even though we have a high scoring type of weather tonight.

Sorry that was Opponents Offensive Avg. not defense avg its 10.9

However here is a bit more thats intresting
Average power rating of opponents played: TCU 35.1,  BOISE ST 29.8
I do not think that either team has played a very serious scedule

Something I'm noticing in the posts...
 
People are either on TCU and the under
 
or
 
Boise and the over....
 
Winner just might be the books if you parlay this one.
 
Take it straight up...
 
On Boise Money line here... (3 units)
