I'm not sending this play out all dressed up like the others. The numbers will not completely support a play with a number this large. I am sending this one out as a play for myself and as an opinion for anyone interested.
Oklahoma plays Okie St Saturday. Oklahoma currently trails Texas in the BCS poll. The Big 12 Conferemce Title Game will be between Missouri and the highest ranked opponent out of Oklahoma, Texas and Texas Tech should they all end the regular season at 11-1. Texas Tech is basically done unless something crazy were to happen, so it really all comes down to Oklahoma and Texas.
Texas can ill afford to not beat the ever lovin crap out of Texas A&M. They will need to impress the polsters with not just a win but a very impressive victory because if Oklahoma beats okie St then most believe that Oklahoma would jump over Texas because of strength of schedule.
I always prefer to play favorites but rarely ever would I be willing to lay a number this large especially in a rivalry game. If Texas A&M had any chance at all in this game I would take the points or pass but from what we have seen Texas being capable of and what we have seen Texas A&M not being capable of I am willing to lay 40 if need be in this game.
Play:
Texas -35.5**
