I just saw this posted at TCU-3. Is that what everybody else has? To me, that is the biggest gift this season. I would have taken Wisconsin at anything lower than Wisconsin -7. TCU will lose this game by 10+ points.

I'm laying off, but I'm really looking forward to sitting back and watching this one.

I have not bet a game since week 5, but this one is just to good to pass up.

Right... because what people post on here really has any effect on the outcome of the game doesn't it?

I'm taking TCU -3 because they have a power nation rank #1 Defense!

This is the game I am most looking forward to watching as a fan. I know Wisky has been on a roll of late, but I think the layoff will hurt them. Also, TCU has an SEC quality defense. They play hard nosed football, just like Wisconsin. I know this also may be a tired cliche, but Ohio State's president did the Big 10 no favor with his little diatribe last month. TCU would love nothing more than to blast a Big 10 team right off the field.

it's early but 85% of the bets so far are on Wisconsin and with all the threads i've seen about how Wisconsin is going to roll TCU i think this is gong to be a covers bloodbath. Line jumped from -1.5 to -3 right after it came out and that isn't public money.

Same here, and the line is down to 2.5. at 5Dimes.

Good point.

My thoughts are
TCU isn't as banged up after having a cake schedule
The layoff kills Wisconsin's momentum
TCU's receivers present a big match up problem for Wisky
TCU defense can stop the run

good point on momentum loss.  Kerly is going to have a monster game.

will say that Wisky is historically a good bowl bet.

Last time I checked TCU gave up 35 points to San Diego State.

I know TCU might be ranked #1 defense, but I look at who they have played. I see no one that I think is a solid team.

Wisconsin on the other hand has played Ohio State, Michigian State, and Iowa. These are all solid teams to me. I know they lost to MSU, but they know how to play against good teams.

Lets face it, If it wasn't for the BCS system(which I don't like) TCU would not be in this game, and to be honest I do not think they are worthy of it. I see Wisky winning by 10+ here. I know everyone else is saying this too, but I see it happening.

I'm guessing you have not seen 1 second of San Diego State this season. That team should've been 9-0 coming into the TCU game. A miracle TD by Missouri and a blown call/botched replay in the BYU game prevented SDSU from being undefeated heading into Ft. Worth.

 And if you watched that game between SDSU and TCU, you'd know that TCU led by 26 points with a minute left in the 3rd quarter before San Diego State got rolling. Oh, and that 5 point loss was the Aztecs' worst loss of the season in terms of scoring margin. SDSU gained 7 first downs the entire game...seven. Only 300 yards of total offense as well.

If you want to use 1 game as an indicator - a game which I am 100% sure you did not watch - feel free. That comes back to bite you in the ass more often than not though.

Apoc- we might get TCU at a pickem, I am decided on the fact that TCU will be the largest bet of my life.
