    Depends on how juiced up TCU is to be playing tonight. La Tech is no joke, but TCU is the superior football team, I would feel better if the line was -7 though.

    Well said. TCU clearly better, but how much better? Crappy spread, I'll probably stay away...may take EP36 up on the TCU TT.

    Does anyone have any info on Louisiana Tech's star Wide Receiver and Running back's injuries.

    Last I saw Creer the team's leading scorer and receiver as doubtful,
    and their leading rusher as probable (but am assuming he is not 100%)

    All the more reason for the spread to be where its at and the public to be all over them... you think vegas doesn't know that LaTech is 10-2 ATS this year... this game should be a 2 touchdown spread at the least. The ONLY reason they cover is because a TCU letdown for not getting into a BCS bowl and they just don't care.

    TCU makes sense in theory, but a move from -11 to -9 with the public backing TCU should be a cause for concern.

    hard to know if TCU can cover, but they should win the game.

    Creer is out for La Tech, didn't travel with the team, so thats a blow to their Offense

    This doesn't make any sense. You're saying the line should be a 2 TD spread at the least, but Vegas opened its line at 12.5 with 70% of the public on TCU yet the line moves in favor of TCU down to 9. And you think Vegas is doing this for you to bet LTech?

    I think TCU is WAY better than Ltech and this line is WAY too easy. Ltech will cover and the public will once again lose today.

    You bought a half point from -9? WTF is the logic in that? That half point is worth 3 cents.

    TCU is healthy and pissed off. Players believe they deserved to be ranked higher after their final game. LaTech has their 2 best offensive players injured, limpy and Creer is doubtful. This is a snippy bowl bid for TCU and they will kill LaTech just to prove they are power house.

    I liked the Freshman QB better. Gave them more of a puncher's chance. This new guy is pretty conservative. Plays into TCU's hand pretty nicely...My main concern for LA tech is their pass defense. If they limit big plays in the passing game, I like their chances.

    Unless they're incredibly easily motivated I don't think they'll care too much.

    La Tech has the better D-line in this game, doubtful they can score 40.

    You're making way to much sense. Win or lose somebody has LT for some serious $$.
