This confuses me. (not much doesn't).... If public is hammering the over, wouldn't the book's total go up?

Aside from my question:  If they played to a 17-16 final last year with virtually the same teams in tact......The under sounds good to me.

                CONGRATS  ! 

 Talk about lucky..37 points in a snowstorm.

I bought your bottle before the game started thinking these teams would score 1 touchdown the whole game. Well by the end of the Eagles game your bottle was gone .  SALUTE Mon e-pics   Keep that bottle in the cupboard e-pics when I get to the Christmas Isles someday a drink will be waiting for me.

TCU tonight...I only wish Boise and TCU could have played other BCS teams rather than themselves!

TCU over 250 rush yards and pass yards per game..if one style isn't working the other will...TCU is the play

TCU defense will shut the Broncos down and I really think they could've beat ANY team this season..... Hope they don't take Boise lightly though.  TCU should win by more than 2 TDs this time around.

BOISE ST +7. Pretty easy wager here. Boise State's QB Kellen Moore is the nation's top-rated passer who has been sacked five times all season - none in the last five games.  Moore finished second nationally with 39 touchdown passes while throwing three interceptions.

I like the under in this game as well, last year TCU beat Boise State 17-16 with a late come back in the Poinsettia Bowl.

Cant wait for this game to start. Should be a good one.

Sorry for double-posting - i was really wondering if anybody had a take on the Surface of this game and the fact that TCU seems disappointed to be in this bowl game with this opponent -

Anybody have any color to provide on either of these items?

 

 

 

oh...and...

Mountain West makes it 5-0 in the postseason tonight. Gary Patterson and Horned Frogs will be on a mission to prove that the BCS couldn't pick a winning team if it crawled up their ass. Elevating Cincinnati to #3 over the Frogs was the ultimate insult. The BCS probably slighted the Frogs because they didn't want Urban Meyer siezing up with a massive coronary in a game against TCU. I'm looking for a tough game tonight, but TCU is on a MoWest mission. Frogs by 14. Tonight.

TCU -7 Large

started out loving TCU, however the more i look at it I am taking Boise +7.5.

boise st. is used to being the underdog/overachiever and TCU has just stepped into that role recently and I think TCU has their feelings hurt by being in this bowl. I would not be surprised to see Boise win SU

TCU has their feelings hurt? I think they're so mad they have piss shooting out of their eye sockets. I wouldn't want to be a Bronco tonight.

UBERDOG  you may be right BUT, that piss may cloud their vision and allow the Broncos to cover.

These two teams are evenly matched, with a slight nod going to TCU's D as the possible difference maker. 

But while TCU has played a more impressive schedule, Boise has the best win (Oregon). I also like Boise being a big underdog and coming off last year's bowl loss to TCU. They'll be looking for revenge and respect. That's good enough for a small play on Boise +7.

judging by this board the game should not even be played.   everyone is 'pounding' tcu as if they already know the outcome.   i've seen this act before. 

boise st plus the points for me. 

good luck to the boise backers.

I like TCU with the ML tonight.  I think it will be a close game.  More like a 3 pt game or so.  I am also taking the Under at 55.  Teams are similar to last years (17-16 score) and I see no reason it won't go under again.

My guess:  TCU 21 BoisST 20

Boise St.  +7  

 

I would go with another low scoring affair - game goes either way but enough for Boise to cover. 

Not too much real handicapping going on in this thread huh?  I thought you boys (and girls) did your research!  

 

Excited for some Monday night football!!!

The number is going down because they are begging you to take the over - when the public pounds one side and the line goes the wrong way its 'usually' a sign that they are begging you to take that side (in this case the over).  I'll go small on the under tonight.

I wonder what the O/U was last year when they totalled a measly 33 points.

Kellen Moore, and his horse mouth, will be tempted by the salt-licks strategically placed on each goal post. However, it won't be enough to plow through TCU's defensive line, which will throw him a severe beating tonight.
