    Kansas +17 and a little on the ML

    Bought half a point and played +17 for three units. Put 1 unit on the ML.

    I feel like KU makes this game ugly, runs it decently, keeps it close, and might have a chance to win in the 4th quarter.

    I think Tech may be a bit of a fraud and I don't think they should be laying 17 on the road here. I understand KU is bad but they have played Tech really well in recent years and are at home today.

    It's an early kickoff. I think Tech may be sleep walking in this game.

    GL.

    Kansas +17 is nice but I don't know about them winning outright. GL though

    Yes, it's definitely a gamble that's why i put an extra unit on the spread.

    This game stuck out to me when the line opened. It reminds me of the WVU/OSU game last week.

    I wish I would have grabbed it at 17.5 when it opened.

    I gotta say though WVU is a better overall team than Kansas but I see your point. I'm laying off this one as I agree with you something smells fishy. All the best Sir

    Both teams are bad. KU is the worst team in the league but it seems like every year they catch someone off guard at home.

    I love the fact that Tech is ranked in the top 20, undefeated, and probably feeling over confident. Plus it's an early game. We'll see. It just seems like a great spot for Kansas to actually do something.

    The total is a little lower than you might except which makes me think I may be right about KU being able to run the ball today and control clock.

    Good call so far on the KU ML. At home, they seem to show up well, almost took out OkSt last year.

    KU was playing great and it was 10-10...then Kansas called a fake punt on their own 20 yard line when it was 4th and 10 and their punter ran for a 5 yard loss and Tech promptly scored a TD.

    Dumb and a huge turn in momentum.

    This would be a BigD comment. First he would bump the losing thread and then take a back-handed jab:


    "Tough one here. I'm not sure why anyone would take Kansas, that team is awful but that's just me."

    Honestly the ML was a good pick, the line itself may have been bad but only because KU was gonna pull it out or get blown out.

    Worth a stab though, no regrets.

    Never done that to you. Not once in one of your threads. Can you say the same? You love bumping losing threads to try and rub it in.

    Kansas was doing well and then just gave up after that stupid fake punt didn't work inside their 10 yard line.

    Then the interception on the first play of the 2nd half.

    Oh well. Bad pick. It won't be my last. Lol.

    ?

    When is the last time I bumped a losing thread of yours?

    I don't think I've been in any of your threads in a long time.

    Anyway, good to see ya around.

    This was a god awful pick.
