    University of Houston -2.5

    Season ticket holder and current student here. Not a homer pick. I went 4-2 last season in the 6 games I played (two times taking the other team). I'm 1-1 this year (lost the opening as I didn't think they would cover the -40 on opening day). Rice is good this year so we probably won't smack them the way we usually do but I just don't see UH losing this game.

    Get it before the line moves. If you want to fade wait until Saturday, you'll probably get +3

    .

    I agree! Class of 2001, here. No homer pick...Just reality.... Houston will get those TD scores in The Red-Zone, this week. Defense will be pumped, based on the offensive production of UofH. "Run them to exhaustion", is pretty much what I expect. I would take Houston -14, if I had to.

    Houston has played a FCS team and what could well be the worst FBS team (0-3 Temple). Their stats are totally inflated. Rice hung with Texas A&M for a while and defeated Kansas. I would NOT give any points here. Obviously A&M is 20 times better than Houston is. Pass.

    And that's why the line is not even a field goal. I took Rice in that game because A&M was not going to have Johnny Dickhead until the second half.

    Piland will probably get cleared tomorrow but I'm good with O'Korn. Expect that line to move when they announce he's good to go.

    Ok. Wait until game time and unload on Rice plus the points. Maybe we both win.

    Rice made it interesting in the end
    I'm glad I couldn't find a stream for this

    Good ending. That's the best onside kick I've seen in my life.

    Under appreciating UTSA at home will not be a good idea. This team is good at scoring and very good at home. I can only assume squares will pound Houston so Ill wait for UTSA to get even more value.

    I was going to drive to San Antonio for the game but my daughter's softball season starts this Saturday. I still haven't decided if I'm playing this game or not. I might pass this week.

    Still thinking about this one boys, but in the mean time I just unloaded on San Jose St. +9.5 and ML +290
    This is a good team with a future NFL QB in David Fales and Utah St. just came from a hard fought game at USC where they covered for most of the game and lost in the 4th. Q by a field goal. They have to go to San Jose now and I really see them with a little mixture of let down/look ahead factor (BYU next week).

    San Jose is gonna be pumped, I see them covering the 9.5 and maybe even winning outright.

    Get it boys!!!!!!

    I thought it might be a close game and chose to pass on them today, kicking myself for it. But I'm happy they won and happy you guys made money on them.
