PREDICTIONS: Iowa State at West Virginia

[FredCyclone]

There is no bad weather in the forecast. It will be 60 and cloudy. Very small chance for rain.

The line is up to -3.5 WV, which seems off. And that scares me.

Big money is coming in for WVU. They have lost to only ranked teams. They are probably the best 5-3 Team in the nation.

I'm thinking ISU wins, 44-24. We have 3 field goals.

 

[SolarGarlic]

Doesn't that mean money is going to ISU?

The opposite. They are trying to make it more enticing to put money on ISU because more money is coming in on WV.

WVU, has not lost back to back games in Two years. Also all their loses this year, have come to ranked teams. The bad weather, on the road, with a motivated WVU is going to be tough. This team has already exceeded expectations, anything after this is Frosting.

That doesn’t sound like raising the standard to me.

This is the type of thinking that CMC is trying to keep away from this program. Don;t be satisfied and assume the rest is extra. They will be focus and ready to roll. ISU wins relative ease.

Many might assume this team is due for a let down. I don;t think this team has gotten respect nationally and this game is another example. Go get that W, earn respect (and I'll keep cashing these tickets on ISU to win as the underdog!)

62 degrees, cloudy, and 5 mph wind sounds about perfect.

 

[Blandboy]

Cyclones by 14.

Big late money swing always makes me worried the sharps know something we don't, like Lima's back is still acting up.

I completely disagree. With our receivers being so tall, 5 mph wind will probably feel like 10 mph winds and will play complete havoc to our passing game.

This was my thinking at first, but big money flew in on OU....and then we were only 20 point favorites over KU.....and then we were dogs at Tech......but right after that we were dogs to TCU....

 

[MilehighClone]

24-0 Clones with the shutout on the road.

SR’s lead again. Vernell and JD upfront, Joel being Joel and KCM making plays in the back and solidifying 1st team BIG 12 Honers.

Trevor makes a play on special teams that leads to points and Al studs it out as usual and gets a red zone TD.

 

[Spanky]

Clones...

A much smaller CB fought the ball away from Lazard and got an interception in the TCU game

Fought the ball away or was massively under thrown? ****

Yup, winds fault. Ya that’s one of the few times that kempt threw the jump ball about 2 yards short and to the DB’s credit, it was a hell of a catch. Happened about 6 yards away from where my seats were at. Dude played it very well

 

[harimad]

Clones 34, Coonskin Caps 20.

 

[Brandon]

34-24
This isu defense is like a boa constrictor, it slowly chokes the life out of opposing offenses. I think Monty goes for 125+

 

[Frak]

If Montgomery starts busting big runs and goes for over 100, ISU wins by 14. If WV stuffs him like most teams have recently, it's going to be a close game.
