        Lets go Frogs...............The frogs have not had a good year but I think they should take Houston down easy.......I hate when they go to a bowl like this.....the first year they had the Fort Worth bowl at their home stadium was a joke I think some of the Alumni came up with that bowl.

            For the guys out there who like to take advantage of the easy line to beat because the betting "public" tend to stay away from games like this, we know these are our hidden big opportunities. Understand this, Houston was thinking Conference USA Championship this year but was absloutely clobbered by Tulsa 56-7. On top of that they are dealing with the mass departure of the entire coaching staff as they are riding out to Baylor with Houston fading in the rear view mirror (I got respect for head ball coach Art Briles though...wonderful play caller). TCU finished the year strong winning 3 of their last four and the 1 loss was actually a cover against Las Vegas Bowl champion BYU. This game is going to be a good matchup between the offense and defense for the real college football fans out there. I see it like this...TCU is battling for next year while the Houston players are palying for interim coaches who have no idea about their futures and Houston has not won a bowl game since 1980 (not even Andre Ware beat that bowl drought!!). TCU will cover the 4.5 point srpead. They are going to win by at least a touchdown.

                Hate laying points in these games, but I also like TCU -6. Their defense was impressive last year in their bowl win and I think they will score plenty. My concern is will they be flat affer having such a great 2006 and under achieving this year. Hope not.

                  I have had a pretty decent betting season overall, so far. The 3 games today really got me nervous and wondering if I should bet at all. I do like TCU, but they were really a let down this year. Maybe an over would be a better bet in this game. It should be a shootout, right???

                      Sounds like two good picks with this favorite and the over.

                            I have this one set as a pick em. So I would lean toward Houston +6.5. I also have the total set around 58, so I would have no lean on the total 58.5 that is out there right now.

                            No bets for me, so good luck to everyone in this one.

                                This one came down to the end, where Houston had a shot at tying the game, but fell short.
