    Why is Oklahoma St +3 at HOME?!?!
    Why on earth is Ok St the dog here???

    Am i missing something? Baylor barely beat Kansas St with their new Qb, and then lost at home to oklahoma... And now theyre going on the road to an undefeated Oklahoma St team and they are FAVORED by 3???

    What is going on here??

        i see no way Ok St loses to baylor with that qb.. are people really high on him? Stidham i think his name is? I also didnt think oklahoma should have been a dog AT baylor last week, and they showed why. I think Ok St wins this game even though this line is throwing me off

            haha this is good advice. it really is. I let lines throw me off WAY too often and i talk myself in and out of bets because i think the line is "rigged" or whatever. I dont actually think the game is rigged, i just think the line is set a certain way to get you to bet on it because it looks "too easy." This is kinda how i feel about ok st, but i think i will go with my gut and stick with them +3

              this is exactly right. Too many people attribute line moves to things like oh that side must be getting pounded etc...whem in actuality the books move lines as they please to try and sway betters. Only time books really move a line because it's getting pounded is when they set a line to try and sway you one way but noone falls for it. Example of this today is Indiana and Maryland

                        There are no trick plays!! Ok St. is now +2.5 and +115 on the ML.

                        That is what Indiana was last night before it moved!

                          books are faking you dudes out of your shoes. why do you think the line is what it is, so you second guess.

                                3 minutes into the game and Baylor 14-0. Guess that's why Ok St. was getting points.

                                  Looks like Okie St. is about to get throttled.

                                        This conference is a shit show with it's lack of attention to defense - not sure if this game is helping anyone. they seem to be penetrating themselves and don't know it.

                                            When you're undefeated and 1 loss teams are ranked ahead of you and you're not even favored to win at home against a backup qb basically the number man is saying I don't believe you're for real show me.

                                              They are showing everyone they can not compete one an elite level. If they lose they lose, but the game is not even close and never in doubt. Baylor showed up and smacked them with their cocks.

                                                i understand what you are saying for sure, and thats why i was trying to talk myself out of taking ok st +3.. but i bit the bait.. it happens.. oh well. I mean they SMACKED tcu at home with a healthy boykin, so i figured they could beat baylor with no QB.. my mistake

                                                I am honestly usually not one to bet the 'obvious' sides, but today i did, and oh well..
                                                I also thought indiana was the 'obvious' side today and they won by 20, so its not as easy as Paco over there saying that squares are idiots.. but he has like 1000000 million posts, so he is the man and i know im not allowed to talk shit to someone with more posts. thats how online forums go.. haha.. retarded.. but whatever

                                                  The best part of this is Baylor still thinks they are good. Stupid penetrates

I mean they SMACKED tcu at home with a healthy boykin, so i figured they could beat baylor with no QB.. my mistake

                                                      I am honestly usually not one to bet the 'obvious' sides, but today i did, and oh well..
                                                      I also thought indiana was the 'obvious' side today and they won by 20, so its not as easy as Paco over there saying that squares are idiots.. but he has like 1000000 million posts, so he is the man and i know im not allowed to talk shit to someone with more posts. thats how online forums go.. haha.. retarded.. but whatever
                                                      It happens, sports is fickle, they could play one another tomorrow and have the opposite result.

                                                          would tend to disagree, Baylor is better all day. Fact is Okie St had the chance to take advantage of a banged up team and couldn't.

                                                            The better team doesnt always win though, hence upsets. Alot of things happen, playcalling, coaching, turnovers, so much. I bet Baylor but I can understand why someone would fade them with a backup qb, but knowing Baylor even if the qb is decent and can just throw a decent long ball they will be in the game because they go up top so much with those speedsters. Baylor losing last week Im sure helped with their motivation, they are the better all around team, but its not like they couldnt have lost tonight.

                                                              Okie state has gone above and beyond what was expected of them this season. If you had watched them all season you would have seen a borderline top 25 team that got lucky in several games to win...and just played out of their minds the one game against tcu. A lot of people around here were doubtful of even making a bowl game this year...so 10 wins is way above expectations.
