Are TCU A Safe Bet ?

I hope not. I need Wisconsin in a bad way.

TCU is my biggest play of the bowl season.

Houli why do you like TCU so much? Not that I'm against it but I think Wisconsin will over power them on the lines

TCU's best win is over Oregon State. Wiscy has 3 wins better than that (Ohio State, @ Iowa, Arizona State).

Wiscy struggled early because they relied on John Clay's bad ankles. Now they've got James White and Montee Ball and they're scoring 70ppg.

Wisconsin 38
TCU 10.

I wouldnt take TCU.....Wisky is too big, strong, and good......TCU hasn't faced anyone. The media has discussed it all year long....hence why they wont make it to a Championship game.....Wisky +3 is a GIFT!

Big10 is 2-0 so far this bowl season. Wisky or no play at all for me

thunderingherd23 · 12-29-10, 10:16 PM

this is gonna be a great ballgame

thunderingherd23 · 12-29-10, 10:17 PM

TCU is looking for respect and they are undefeated

I don't care how good TCU's defense is...they haven't seen a rushing attack like Wisconsin's.

I don't know what I'll be doing for this game (if anything) but I wouldn't call it a safe bet...I'd just call it a bet.

IS TCU a safe bet? NO

There are no safe bets.

It's Gambling. (*not trying to be a smartass...been gaming to many years and just trying to help any new guys out there.)

I wouldn't base a pick off of two games for the Big 10. Imo, the Big 10 is the second best conference in college football this season behind the SEC. With that said, Iowa was very lucky to beat Mizzou after Gabbert threw a pick 6 with 5 minutes left in the game to give Iowa the lead.

As for Illinois beating Baylor, Baylor isn't a strong team. They only beat one team with a winning record all season and got bowl eligible by beating teams like Rice and Sam Houston State.

People can say that TCU hasn't faced a power running game like Wisconsin, Wisconsin is bigger stronger etc, whatever. I could also say that Wisconsin hasn't played a team with the speed of TCU.

I feel like TCU matches up well with Wisconsin. TCU's defense is pretty good against the run.

I like TCU to win the game even though I placed a future bet on Wisconsin the win the national title before the season. I got them at 40/1 and they ended up with one loss. It's not like I don't respect Wisconsin.

Be careful with this one.

Damn good read/post BigDof.

This game should be one hell of a match up.

I agree..."Be careful with this one."

Ty. I like TCU in the game because I feel like they are a damn good team and want to prove something. Remember the way they played at Utah this season?

ASU came very close to beating Wisconsin in Madison. Wisconsin had trouble containing the speed of some of ASU's skill players. I feel like TCU could have similiar success

I'll make a play on TCU but it won't be anything crazy because Wisconsin is a damn good team in their own right.

use better english

"Don't Mean Nothing".....this is just fun #30.

Goddamn Charlie trying to kill you means something.

We have one arrogant "spellchecker" here at SRB and don't need another one. The SOB is nothing but a negative poster.

Let's all just help each other make a judgement on how to win money. Nothing else!

lyon804 · 12-30-10, 02:33 AM

Well, I will be honest.. I am a novice college football fan and novice college bettor. However, from my limited experience seeing TCU giving points is shocking. Usually when I don't understand something that is the way it happens. So with me knowing nothing TCU looks like the play, besides 2/3 of bettors are on Wisky and the line is holding -3 and the ML is rising upwards. Based on this info alone I will play TCU.

we ain't needin to use good english, we just gamblers man...let us do our thing
