Bowling Green/Idaho

The line should be Idaho -3.

**nyplayerz** · 12-29-09, 11:59 PM

I personally think bowling green will win because Idaho lacks defense, but both teams will light up the score board, so smash the OVER!!!

What makes you say that?

Smash the over is right.... Fresno State Alum, have followed Idaho this year and they can put up points but can't stop anybody at all... Mr. Barnes will have a huge day for BG

**nyplayerz** · 12-30-09, 01:02 AM

yes the over!!! I will be placing $3300 to win $3000 on the over of 68

Agree with you all both defenses suck. But idaho's could be the worse in the nation. Think the obvious play here is the over!!!!!!!!!

**beerman2619** · 12-30-09, 01:18 AM

I was going to go with the over to but be carefull here reading the weather report for Boise tomorrow. 70 percent chance of snow showers might limit the scoring here.

**Cornerback** · 12-30-09, 01:47 AM

Even with the snow showers I'm still taking the OVER.

**Shortstop** · 12-30-09, 06:16 AM

Snow = More Points! Let it snow, let it snow...

By the way, where did you hear it will snow?

My pal that lives near Boise just told me it will be clear all night on Wednesday...

weather.com calling for 30-40% chance of snow during game, though it's not as if they haven't been wrong before.

I actually like the under, and cap it at Vandals 32-24. Played Idaho +1 big yesterday and thinking about the under 68.5. Like A&M/UGA, this is one of those games where everyone expects a ton of points and the defenses come out sharp because of all of the work they put in to avoid looking terrible in the expected shoot-out. Winning this game would be a huge way for Idaho to cap the season. They won't be looking to sling it around in the second half if they have the lead and conditions are bad. BGSU allows 5.3 YPC [in the MAC]. If this game goes the way that Idaho wants, they'll run it 20+ times in the 2H. BGSU has played in only one road game this season [Kent St] in which more than 60 points were scored.

I may just stay away from the total given the strong over sentiment expressed on the boards, but I think that it's worth noting that you can't just look at two teams, say that they're high-scoring with poor defenses, and count on a shoot-out. If that had been the case, a game like A&M/UGA easily goes over. However, Richt decided to play a ball control game as they did against Ga Tech, and it took a second half flurry of points to even get close to the number. If Akey's smart, he's planning to play a similar game to keep the ball away from Sheehan and Barnes. My two cents. Bol whatever you decide.

Finally someone who realizes the under may be where sharp money is. Under has been where the money is of the late. Matchups that were thought to bring high scoring affairs were anything but. Im going under..G.L

**waco66** · 12-30-09, 09:56 AM

im going against the public n taking bg...worked for the last couple of bowls

**Pavv4** · 12-30-09, 10:02 AM

I like the over!

**og4667** · 12-30-09, 12:52 PM

from what I see the %'s for the side are about equal, but from a total standpoint the public is on the over by about 68% and line has gone down .5pt so possible sharp money on the Under. I am still undecided either way but leaning Idaho and Under

**bballs84** · 12-30-09, 12:55 PM

32-24... Idaho is going to hold BG to 24 points??? They will have 24 at half!!!! Idaho is terrible, awful, horrible on D
