First season win total released

Technically, wouldn't this always be a win-lose situation? C'mon man, go for it - Bet ISU on the over and when it happens it will be glorious. If it doesn't, there's always CF for venting sessions and group therapy.

I was about to say the same thing. The four options are:

Win/win - Bet over, win over
Win/lose - Bet under, win under
Win/lose - Bet under, win over
Lose/lose - Bet over, win under

So he is really taking the win/lose option to remove the risk, but decrease the reward. Not that anyone cares.

I wouldn't bet on the over or the under that because my prediction would be 8 wins.

As an Iowa State fan for 45 years. I feel like this season is setting me up for the groin kick. I hope to hell our team stays healthy and we can finally have the one season. The one where it all goes right.

I hope so too, I dont know if I can handle another 2005.
This teams seems to be trending the right direction tho

I would think smart money would be on the Under for Nebby.

But I always lose when I bet, so I'm probably wrong. But it feels right.

This is football, not MBB, right?

100% agree! 8 wins in insane.

I bet ISU over 6.5 at three Vegas casinos last year. 2 cancelled the bet but the Golden Nugget paid out

Interesting tidbit from last seasons over/under. Most people I know got it at 6 and bet the over. They were sweating it early in the year, then the Clones got rolling and covered. Vegas called off all bets, due to not playing a full season, the Drake game didn't count. SUCKED

Has anyone come out with Iowa State at 7.5? I'd take the over on that.

 

[ribsnwhiskey]

I'll be disappointed with anything under 9. I'm expecting 10. I also don't gamble.

hit that under hard. if you miss it u will land among the paid& laid boys

This is exactly how I like to bet on sports. Bet against your favorite teams so it can always be a win-win situation. I would LOVE to lose a couple hundred bucks when the Clones beat the Hawks..... but if they would happen to lose, at least I'm up a couple hundred.

I got in the habit of live gambling against Clones FB whenever they would get up to 2 score lead. Much better payoff for when we’d blow it. Was lucrative for awhile, but my available gambling funds went to $0.00 last year .

That 2005 team was a fragile bunch...seemed any sort of adversity or even one weird play would just throw them off for the rest of the game.

Never know but seems to me the culture for ISU football right now is there there's several players that want to go out and make the play.
