Some books are not offering this game...why?

**Illusion** · 12-14-07, 02:55 AM

Delaware looked like shit against SIU . If anything, I would bet App St minus the points. I will probably pass however.

Illusion I respect your plays and I was hoping for a team you felt comfortable with.

Line is currently 5.5 at Pinny. I'm considering taking Appy state minus the points in this one.

This game is in Chatanooga. It is familiar territory for A state. A state is too athletic for Delaware in the end. I can see this being fairly close at half but A state pulling away.

I took Delaware at +7 1/2, so all you Appalachian State bettors can celebrate now. LOL

I hope everyone took my advice. It's even easier than I thought.

Unreal all the chances that DEL had....i hate it when refs play a role in the outcome.

BB,
ASU's team speed had a lot more to do with the outcome of this game than the refs.

When the score is 49-21, it's hard to argue that the refs jobbed you.

Right DocJs...no argument from me that ASU ist the better team....but I was referring to when it was 7-0 and the TD was called back for Deleware by the refs. Really changed the momentum b/c they got stopped on the next two plays.

they had a ton of chances. ASU made all the big plays and Del didn't.

BB,
You're right about that. Also, I didn't care much for Del play calling when the turned it over on downs on the ASU goal line, either.

No question about that BB.

Delaware Offensive Stats
Total Offensive Yards 432
Total Offense Plays 79
Average Gain per Play 5.5

Those kind of numbers should have equaled to more than 14 offensive points.

It was just one of those things that if you had a Deleware ticket in your hand, like I did, and you watched that first half you had to feel very frustrated that they were somehow down 21 pts at the end of the 1H....

1) can't convert on 3rd and inches two times after a TD is taken away
2) top placekicker in D1-AA misses a 35 yd fg.
3) ASU fumbles in the endzone and all the DEL defender has to do is jump on it, and they completely wiff on it
4) 2 drives of 10 or more plays that result in 0 points
5) ASU converts on seemingly every 3rd and long situation
6) ASU scores with .45 left on a long pass play right after DEL had scored their first TD

Very frustrating to say the least........

Sounds like games when I bet overs. Teams never score TD's inside the 20 for me, it is either fg's or turnovers and I come up 1-3 points short every time.
