    Are sharp books head-faking us on NEB/WASH?
    Huskies are now down to +13, and Nebraska's being offered at + money.

    I know how often DD bowl underdogs cover, but I watched the first game between these two teams and it was a joke. Having a hard time seeing Washington staying within two touchdowns here; wondering if the sharper books are just bluffing to draw line watchers in.

    It's going to be a close game. The books want you to take Nebraska, which would be a horrible pick. Expect a high scoring fun game decided in the last few minutes.

        The only way this game is close, is if its low scoring.

          based on trends. Go back and check out games where two teams play each other twice in the same year. If you think this game will be just like their first meeting, you're crazy.

            Man , this game is concerning. I dont really think Nebraska cares about this game at all. Washington cares a ton about this game. Statistically these two teams are not even close. I just think that Wash. will have something up their sleeve. Wash +14 for me

                Locker was totally dominated in the first game, and Nebraska has arguably the best corners in the country.

                  In games that are too close to call I go with a 2 step process

                  1) Don't bet the game

                  2) If step 1 fails, take the points (Washington +14)

                    Bo won't let huskers go through the motions in this game. Locker is not accurate enough not to get dominated again. Husker defense is improved over last game and will outscore Huskies tonight. T-magic is healthy and will once again make the Huskie defense look slow. Huskers win 38-3.

                      are you serious? you really should refrain from betting this game if you think washington qbs last name is locklear. you should be watching melrose place or tj hooker

                          Locker is 100% healthy and he has a lot to prove. To Washington and to raise his draft stock.

                          Nebraska doesn't want to be in this game, there is turmoil inside that program with T. Magic. I think they'll come out flat.

                          I took the under, Dub +14, and a small bet on Dub straight up!!

                                  Haha...Jake Locklear - that makes me laugh just saying it. I think I'll start calling him that now. Work sucks and now I have something to laugh about...all is good now.

                                            From my Nebraska connections what I hear is that this team will be ready to play and that Martinez is 100% healthy...

                                                I think books are getting Washington action because people are questioning Neb motivation for this game.

                                                        Washington better tighten up their run D. When they played them earlier this year, Neb. had 3 100 yard rushers , including their QB.

                                                          I just put $100 on Neb with my local at -12. I've already got them in a 4 teamer with UGA, LSU, and Oklahoma so if they don't at least cover 6 1/2 tonight I'm down $400. This movement is starting to scare the hell out of me.

Nebraska doesn't want to be in this game, there is turmoil inside that program with T. Magic. I think they'll come out flat. I took the under, Dub +14, and a small bet on Dub straight up!!
