Boise State @ Tulsa Early thoughts...

[aekdb1130]

Boise is down to 8.5 now, which is a great value. This is it for Boise. Win, and they are in a BCS game, because there is absolutely no one left on their schedule to challenge them. Lose, and they are out. Boise did beat a pretty good Oregon team. Tulsa got destroyed by OU minus Sam Bradford. I think that Boise wins this game going away. The WAC is much better than CUSA as a whole.

This game is Tulsa's ticket into National Spotlight, and i believe that CUSA is a stronger conference overall compared to the WAC.

2009 Teams with a winning/even record:
C-USA:
Houston
Tulsa
Southern Miss
Marshall
East Carolina
Central Florida
SMU

WAC:
Boise State
Idaho
New Mexico State
Fresno State (2-3) but a good team

C-USA: 4 wins vs BCS
WAC: 1 win vs BCS

Why is everyone shitting their pants because Tulsa got shut out IN Oklahoma? Oklahoma just lost their starting senior QB and lost on the national stage to BYU the week or 2 before, you don't think they were a little pissed off? Another thing, if you think Boise St's defense on the road will even look HALF as good as Oklahomas at home, you are only kidding yourself. Most people on this college forum look at teams' previous opponent and the scores and go "OH! BLA BLA BLA Did this to this team! AND..." Yea all a you dumb ****s thought because Arkansas State barey lost to Iowa that "Oh man, no way ULM wins" ULM Lost their starting QB, missed an extra point and missed a FG, didnt score in the second half and still won and covered. I booked the over under at 52 -130 last night, its now already up to 55...I am contemplating a teaser with Tulsa and the Under.

I think you had better rethink your posts. Don't you mean go on Tulsa? If 23% of the bettors outweigh's 77%, I would think that the big bettors are on Tulsa. I can also tell you that by game time, the line will be back up to 10 or more.

No, like i said... the 23% of the people betting on Tulsa brought the line down a full 1.5 points. So that means the minority of the betters have more money on Tulsa. That 23% outweighs the 77%. So just that alone says that the big betters are placing their money on Tulsa.

I do agree with you that the line could easily move back up which is why i'm waiting to see what happens.

But i love following reverse line movements.... Such an easy way to pick out what the play is.

You are 100% correct.

everyone was betting on Arkansas State due to the fact they lost to iowa by 3 points. I discounted that game knowing that ASU had the 75yd int-return TD in the 4th quarter. They shouldve lost to iowa by 10-14 points therefore i stayed away from ASU last night.

does anyone know if CK's still had his college football thread anywhere ???????????????????

Good Call. I had ULM and the Under and didnt fret at all during the game I knew I was gonna cover both once the Refs ruled that first TD a complete pass. Everyone thought Arkansas had some good Defense? I think ULM might a hung up 31 if their QB didnt get hurt in the first half.

WHat I learned last night from Ark St is that they have terrible tackling and can be run right over by a simple running game.

What I learned is what stats on paper already told me, equal defenses and ULM with a slight edge on offense.(looking at their yds avg.)

I'm fading you son of a guns, Tulsa + 10

I'm fading you son of a guns, Tulsa + 10

The individual who started this thread is on the Over 52 which is now up to 55...I've said on record im not playing the spread but if a had to I'd take Tulsa but I can't bet against Boise St. right now so just takin the over of 52.

[SmackdownV]

Boise and the Over.

Tulsa getting 10 points?

Tulsa will lose tonight by 20. Why are all of you overthinking this play?

BCS comes out soon and Peterson understands that the only way in HELL to stay up there is a QUALITY WIN ON THE ROAD BY A LARGE MARGIN.

He took it easy on UC Davis for "personal" reasons.

Tonight will be a ****ING BEATDOWN.

Stop overthinking this game.

Boise will do to Tulsa what they did to Fresno.

Easiest play of the week tonight:

Boise -9.5
Boise OVER 55..............(I would take it up to 65).

GL!

[RICHIE801]

Tulsa will lose tonight by 20. Why are all of you overthinking this play?

IDK to be honest. I'm thinkin if its that ugh for Tulsa, I can potentially hedge a second half wager on the Broncos if I think its necessary .

[SmackdownV]

Peterson is 40-4 at Boise.

This will be UGLY tonight.

Boise wins 45-21

Easy pick tonight.

[mick]

I agree with you on that Smackdownv. This looks like a no brainer! Takem when you can getem!

[SmackdownV]

I would submit that besides the obvious.......(the blue field).

Fresno is about one of the hardest road games out there and Boise Beat that Ass

51-34 ON THE ROAD ON NATIONAL TV. Boise gets UP for National TV games.

It's all about STYLE POINTS tonight.

STYLE POINTS.............EQUALS A MOTHER ****ING BEATDOWN.

BCS IS CALLING and they will DROP LIKE A ROCK IF IT'S A 4th QUARTER GAME.

IT WON'T BE................Tulsa is missing SR. Free Saftey Davis tonight...............You have one of the top rated QB's nationally in Moore..........Equals PASSING THE BALL!!!!!..........EQUALS BLOW OUT.

And once Boise gets up.............Tulsa will abandon the running the clock game and pass more...........equals more points..........equals OVER.

Boise players have also stated that this game is a STATEMENT GAME..............NO MERCY GAME............BLOWOUT GAME.

Thank you........I'll be here all weekend.

[bearmz]

Got Boise-9 here but the line is going Jefferson's now.
GL

[DeluxeLiner]

Taking Tulsa plus the points (Can get them for 10 now very good! think it will get pushed higher before gametime)

[SmackdownV]

OK.

Done Posting now.

Anyone who takes Tulsa tonight deserves to lose that cash.

Crazy to put any cash on Tulsa tonight. Actually stupid and crazy.

Don't let the UC davis game fool you.........that was a "be nice" game.

Don't let the Sam Houston and Rice game fool you..................It was SAM HOUSTON AND RICE!!!!!!!!!!

Good Lord. Some of you need help even thinking that Tulsa will stay in this game with everything Boise has on the line.

Just plain stupid.

[coolbreeze02]

teased it:
boise st - 3 and under 61.5

[Hnguyenphi1981]

bs

I hammered my funds on Boise St last week when they played Davis. Boy, were they a disappointment! I told myself whoever Boise St plays next, I'm going to bet against them. That is exactly what will happen. Tulsa--hotpick--

[DaColts]

Hnguyenphi1981 you will really hate Boise St. Tonight when they cover

[JIMBOK]

Big Daddy is right, the Big bettors are on Tulsa for now, but i would liek to see how the lines moves closer to game time

[hillardoh]

Tulsa has allowed zero rushing TDs this season... That right, ZERO.. including the OU game. I was at that game and Tulsa easily could be up 21-17 by half-time. the homefield advantage in norman is rediculous and remember OU beat #2 texas tech at home 65-21 last year. Tulsa had 3 starting O-linemen injured prior to the OU game and had to play a true freshmen, a juco transfer and a walkon.. The oline should be in better shape for the Boise game. Tulsa went to Rice and beat them 21-10 during a heavy downpour while houston lost to UTEP that same weekend. The Tulsa defense this year is alot better than most people think.

The recuiting for Tulsa and Boise state are on the same level and Tulsa could be the BCS buster within two years.

Tulsa a bcs buster!!!! awww no. In 2 years maybe but I dont cap games that far in advance

[stocker08]

I got:

Boise (-1/2) (first quarter) for 2 units
Boise (o 16) (first half) for 2 units
Boise (-9 1/2) (entire game) for 2 units

Cash money!

[hillardoh]

awwww no the spread was just to high for them to cover. Look for boise to be undefeated or only lose one game this year. I would not cap like that at all. Sounds like you cap on revenge. Dont get fustrated and decide to take the other team because the team you picked lost.

[hillardoh]

teased it:
boise st - 3 and under 61.5

hey I like it great this should be a fairly easy win and good luck

[wal66]

I've posted my reasoning and play in my thread so now I can say. Right or wrong I'm on Tulsa for the game and did a teaser with Boise and the over.

[Kenny981]

Boise for me..They need a statement win BAD!!

Thank you........I'll be here all weekend.

Since you think Boise is "ALL ABOUT STYLE POINTS" in an away game against the 2nd best offense in C-USA with a top-25 defense in the country then you should bet your entire bankroll on this game.

[stocker08]

This game means a lot more to Boise. They have a really good shot at a BCS game this year. If they want to keep that, they better be able to beat tulsa by more than 10.

[shake zula]

I'm not in love with either team, especially BSU. I don't think it is entirely outside the realm of possibility to see Tulsa win this one outright. Home field advantage on a Wednesday night is HUGE. I'm leaning o55 and Tulsa +10. Also considering a parlay w/ Tulsa +290. Tonight is the kind of night that BSU lays an egg. Ultimately, weather will dictate whether I lay the o/u play.
