TCU -17

[ClonesFTW]

This line will be much higher by kickoff I'm assuming

 

[CloneinWDSM]

Wish Bovada would release their lines sooner. This is insanely low. B

 

[3TrueFans]

That's a first half line, right?

 

[twojman]

Holy crap take that and put the house on it.

 

[Hoiball92]

No way. I thought it'd be around -31.

 

[BryceC]

I don't gamble but with lines like this I could absolutely be convinced to start.

 

[Acylum]

It's like printing money.

 

[CycloneErik]

Wherefore art thou, CyBookie?

 

[3TrueFans]

The guy who inputs the lines is dyslexic, it's supposed to be -71.

 

[DesertClone1]

this game better be at 30 by the end of the week, and they'll still cover.

 

[Clonehomer]

Maybe Vegas knows something that we don't. Like maybe Jamie is going to make a coaching change this week.

This line will be much higher by kickoff I'm assuming

And even higher following kickoff.

ISU will get much closer to the spread vs. TCU compared to Tech. But I guess when you have 24 points to play with for the comparison, it isn't saying much.

one of the crazier lines I have ever seen. Money is gonna be pouring in on TCU and this line will move a lot. Get it early if you wanna make some $$$.

 

[bs1984]

I need to get to began and empty my bank account.. I would bet everything I own on TCU with that line.

 

[ISpyCy]

Pretty sure they forgot a zero somewhere in that line...

Vegas probably looked at the fact that TCU barely beat Minnesota, Texas Tech, and K-State. This game could be closer than people think, but only because the game is in Ames and TCU will most likely not be pumped coming into this game. They may play sloppy and make themselves look poor, and us to be more competitive than we really are. Or this game will be a blowout like last year. My bet is a slow first quarter for TCU, before they take off and beat us by 35-42 points.

 

[DurangoCy]

Heading to Vegas Thursday. I think i'm going to bring $1000 to bet on this at anything under 28.

TCU will most likely not be pumped coming into this game.

How can you not be pumped to face Iowa State right now? I'd be pumped if I knew there was a 99.9% chance I'd win.

The problem with that thinking is that Minnesota, Texas Tech, and K-State are all much, much better than ISU. Even if TCU comes out sloppy, they will still easily cover. We had over 300 yards rushing against Tech, supposedly the kind of offensive attack you need to slow down an uptempo offense, and we still came nowhere near close to winning the game. ISU could run for 400 yards and TCU would still cover.
