I think it looks to easy to take Rice. I wouldnt be surprised to see an upset with all this money on Rice. Central Michigan couple nights ago was the same thing. Everyone keep saying its to easy take Central Michigan and well looked what happened. i kind of see same scenerio

The line hasn't moved (it's actually down in some places to 2.5)

RLM. Any thoughts on this? Scary?

just to clarify, "the 50% of the money", that is actually the percentage on either side of the moneyline, not the split in money placed.
and the total is the over/under, not any sort of total percentage.

My opinion is this: Rice does look like the play. However, as some have stated on here, both defenses are absolutely piss poor.

I've seen a lot more of Rice than Western Michigan this year. Rice has a "Northwestern" type of feel about them. The difference is Rice is a favorite here and they don't have the "world is against us" type rallying cry.

I don't know. I'm staying away from it even though it does look to me, statistically, that Rice is the play.
