Big games this weekend, who you got?

[surly]

TxT -2 @ WVU - liked what I saw of the Eers at BU and will take them straight up
BU -2 @ TCU - rivalry game that will be close, going green
ISU +14 @ OU - Cy will need all the points, maybe more
K-State +7 @ Texas - LOL, bet the farm

BU -2 @ TCU - rivalry game that will be close, going purple

K-State +7 @ Texas - LOL, bet the farm

I have to think Baylor's luck will finally run out.

Per Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, "Delton has grown frustrated with the program. The turning point came Saturday when Duggan exited with an injury on the final offensive drive, and the team turned to Collins instead of Delton."

Delton's loss is of significance because, besides Duggan, he has the most playing experience. The Kansas State transfer has appeared in six games this year, and started the first two weeks before Duggan took over. He has 318 passing yards and an interception on the season along with 100 yards rushing. Though he was demoted from his starting job, he still had a role in the team's offense.

- Won't touch TTU/WVU both teams have been so erratic that who knows what will happen.
- BU should beat TCU comfortably
- I don't think OU is all that great, but we've put out some stinkers this season. ISU could win a close one or lose by 30. Won't touch that line.
- Take the points, I guess? One win against a team overlooking you doesn't make you a good team. But Texas has been surprisingly bad this season.

 

[dualthreat]

which team are you betting the farm on?

 

[TheJackWePack5]

WVU to win outright

Baylor wins and covers

ISU pushes, loses by 14

Texas clobbers KSU similar to how Baylor & Oklahoma St did and covers.

I think @surly has grown over-confident after the OU upset and beatdown of KU. As another poster mentioned, you didn’t play Baylor nor OSU close.

If the game was in Manhattan and you guys were underdogs, sure, bet the farm.

 

[ThePollinator]

Only lock I see is Texas don’t feel good about any other ones.

 

[surly]

I switched to green on the BU game based on TCU being out of QB's with Delton's quit.

You know teams do improve as the year progresses, well, at least some clubs, certainly oSu is a good example of that. Texas is getting a lot of their injured guys back after their bye week, so there won't be that excuse one way or the other. That said, Vegas sees it like most of you, a Texas walk.

Tech over WVU
TCU over BU
Iowa State to cover, OU to win
K State to cover, UT to win

 

[CubsClones1]

Tech over WVU
TCU over BU (True Frosh QB Duggan is going to be a good one)
ISU goes in to Norman and wins straight away
K State over UT

I just don't love how K State matches up with Texas, they were a good matchup with OU, this is kind of the opposite. I think you guys cover but UT wins an ugly, low scoring game (see ISU/UT two years ago) . I'd love to be wrong though, I'll be pulling for the Wildcats.


I also like Tech, TCU and OU.

Edit: looks like Max is expected to play against Baylor

[surly]

Max is a hell of a frosh QB but I'll go with Charlie Brewer in this one. Something's not right in Fort Worth.

Agree, except I am going to be outspoken and take TCU outright. They are pretty salty, and I think Delton quitting may be addition by subtraction. Sometimes the lloss of a locker room problem can fire guys up. Also, I think Baylor run of good luck will finally come back to the mean.

Texas will crush KSU.

I'm not sure if Gary will be left to running the single-wing offense without a single healthy QB, otherwise, I would have taken the Frogs in this one too. Baylor has a very good defense and TCU is all but toothless.

They could always install a triple option and make like Army! Nothing messes up a DC's plan more that something they haven't planned for.

 

[CNECloneFan]

Texas will crush KSU.

Texa$ has the potential to crush a lot of teams. It just depends upon whether that "genius" Tommy Herman can get them ready and coach 'em up to it.

 

[Rogue52]

Can someone look up the score of the KSU game and post a thread with it for surly?
