Betdsi-Offshore Sportsbook: ISU 6 Wins for 2018

IMO, it should be either 6 or 7, so not too surprised. I feel like it should be set at 7.5, but I'm biased. For me, 7.5 would be the number I'd have the toughest time betting on.
 
I had it tabbed at 6.5 ... I'm guessing when some more mainstream books come out that's where it will be. 7 seems too high - gotta think nationally - 6, with our knowledge of the team - seems too low.

I assume this is regular season wins only, right? So last year we won 7. I'm just not sure we'll do worse than last year. Obviously it can happen, we all know that, but I just think we'll be more talented overall as a team this year, and the Big 12 is losing some talented players (like Baker Mayfield, although we had no trouble beating him last year anyway!).
 
Hmm, I still have an account somewhere. I would be all over 6 and probably bet 6.5. They are even biased on the under at that site as its -120. I'll take that bet.
 
Good reality check for those of us rushing to a 8+ win season!
 
We're getting attention when national papers are predicting us as a preseason top 25 team.

How many other preseason top 25 teams are projected to only have 6 wins?

In gambling perception means more than actual facts. We could be in the pre season top 10 and be tabbed at 7-8 wins with our reputation.
 
6 could happen...we have a tough schedule especially the front end. My gut says 7 or more.

Bowl games count, I believe. But I can’t totally remember.
 
No. Bowl games and post season never count on preseason over/under numbers.

I know you're saying what the bookies think, but how many do you think we'll win? 7 seems realistic.

Correct. Regular season only.
