    This Houston Game Looks Like A Trap

    undefeated and playing Tulsa on road -3

    They should win easy here

    right??

    Tulsa is a good team. Don't underestimate them at home. Bigger factor here is the wind. Gusty today could really hamper the passing game and that favors Tulsa a little IMO who runs the ball just a shade better.

    If you have no money left after one game you should not even consider yourself a handicapper.

    Refs might decide a game like this, it is in the interest of the conference to have an undefeated team.

    something to take in consideration here

    Thanks for the fade ! It's Houston all in. They need to win out to guarantee a bigger money BCS bowl for their conference.

    Interesting game. Grabbed the +3.5

    Either a trap or a fake. We'll find out in three hours.
