Already a line out for the Oklahoma State game

I don't mind the line as long as both teams enter the game with another W in their win column.
I was expecting to see tents outside the stadium and a bit confused
Phil Steele’s Vegas power ratings have us at #10 but the K-State and OSU lines don’t jive with what he has. By his ratings we should be about a 7 point favorite against K-State (ISU -6.5 is the line now but it opened at ISU -4) and we should about a 10 point favorite at home against Oklahoma State.
I think Texas rebounds this weekend. While Texas should have won the game last week, Okie State isn't a world beater. -4.5 right now seems appropriate.
This. Regardless of what I saw, I would not feel comfortable at all with an Okie St game. But I watched part of that blue turf game. That's a team that most definitely has some weaknesses.
The analytics continue to love ISU, which I'm sure is why Vegas continues to love ISU.
It makes sense. They are basically an average punter away from being 5-0.
The Iowa game was the most lopsided loss, but when you look at the stats and analytics, ISU was the far better team.
This chart really highlights this.

Texas might win by 2 TD's tomorrow. Which is unfortunate, as I'm not excited about facing Gundy coming off a loss.
FPI LOVES ISU.. All depends on how ISU and OSU play tomorrow.
This is so dumb. Who on earth could've watched the ISU-Iowa game and come to the conclusion that "ISU was the far better team?" You guys have to stop this crap. Analytics is not football. It is a tool. Numbers can be manipulated to support whatever outcome you desire. But this one was obvious. Iowa is better than ISU this season.
