    any thoughts from anyone on the syracuse vs missouri match up

    im thinking about taking a play on cuse +5 and taking cuse in ml. i really dont think missouri is anything special other than being the home team here i think cuse has better overall talent?

    I still think Missouri has slightly better talent. Don't like the spread so I am potentially teasing Missouri. I think they win by 10

    As I posted in my weekly plays thread, I've actually got a larger sized play on Missouri. At work so can't post a huge write up, but thought I'd post a few reasons why I'm on Missouri so big.
    -Mizzou needs this win to be bowl eligible with a likely loss at A&M next week.
    -Syracuse a much different team on the road this year, with 1-4 record and a record of 1-8 ATS last 2 years on the road.
    -Huge letdown spot for Syracuse after last weeks thrashing of Louisville.
    -Franklin is finally fully healthy
    -Minus the Tenn. game last week Missouri's D has been pretty good this year.

    I always look for games to take a team that people are on the other side because of what they did just last week. for example Syracuse beat the highly ranked Loisville Cardinals that did not lose all year. and also another example is La. Lafayette plays a Florida Gators team down to the wire....so I will bet on missouri and also on Western Kentucky this week....also looking at Utah State over a La.Tech team that now is being talked about as the BCS crasher......Utah St got one heck of a D

    Missouri's stadium, especially at night, is one of the toughest venues in the nation. Field is squeezed in there, raucous students seated practically atop of visitor's bench. And 'Cuse doesn't travel well. Missou.

    Syracuse ML

    Mizzou's best defensive player DT Sheldon Richardson is suspended, the guy is a beast and would have givev Syracuse a lot of trouble. And now Marcus Murphy, the country's leader in return TD's looks to be out, another area we have trouble defending...special teams.

    Fade me if you must cause you will think I'm a homer but we win this, trust me.
