Houston vs. UAB

**Dbldown11** · 10-07-08, 11:12 PM

yes sir i completely agree with you on this one man. Houston takes this one HUGE. They are a solit team, and UAB, well.....UAB lost to Fla. Atlantic, after people see how many point UAB gave up to FAU and after watching FAU tonight ur right, this line's gonna jump

**WestsidePete** · 10-07-08, 11:13 PM

UAB can't stop anyone...I've got 17.5 but bought a pt for
-16.5

**WestsidePete** · 10-07-08, 11:14 PM

Fukk it this one is good...3 unit play for me instead of one

Lets not forget that Houston last played on Sept 27 while UAB last played on OCt 2. Houston has an advantage. Its not like houston needs extra days to get ready for a bad team like UAB.

**DICEROLLER79** · 10-08-08, 09:02 AM

Houston team over 42 looks like a good bet as well as the game spread. Even Fla Atlantic put up 49 on UAB and Fla Atlantic has a pathetic offense. Your thoughts everyone??

its gonna be a barn burner for Houston

What makes you think that this game is going to be close? I just can't see it. Houston beat up on East Carolina on the road. Houston is a very solid team and UAB is a garbage team with a garbage defense.

Houston beat UAB 49-10 at UAB last year and they should have no problem scoring in this one! The UH defense concerns me but they should have some momentum off their great performance vs East Carolina (Over 600 yds) and the extra 5 days to prepare! I think Hurricane Ike messed up a couple weeks of their season but they showed their potential last game and they're talented enough to trackmeet schools like UAB! Fear of a backdoor cover makes this a smaller play for me at (-18)! I'm considering teasing the line down which should be more than safe in this one!

Houston 47
UAB 24

Starting wide receiver Frentell Forrest is questionable with a knee injury. He leads UAB with 25 catches for 334 yards despite missing two games. Forrest is also the kick returner and is really good at returning kickoffs. Starting left tackle Willie Thompson, who has started 5 of 6 games this season, had a knee injury in the game against Memphis and did not return in that game. There has been no update on his condition.

Houston has only one injured player, RB Andre Kohn has not played since spraining an MCL against Air Force on Sept 13 and his return this week is doubtful.

Does anyone have any updated information on Forrest's injury?

**MarioBareseSP** · 10-08-08, 11:26 PM

Houston BIG -17.5.

**THEGREAT30** · 10-09-08, 01:29 AM

if houston held east carolina to 24, on the road, i dont see UAB scoring 24, believe it or not, the unda looks good to me, its very difficult for me to lay points on a conference game when a team is favored by this much, uab might just rise up and cover, but Im leaning towards playing the unda.

**Jimmydafreak** · 10-09-08, 02:25 AM

Yeah, Houston returns home tomorrow night for the first time since the hurricane so I think they'll be pumped for this one. I think it'll be a blowout as well. 3 TD margin of victoryshouldn't be a problem here!!!

FREAK OUT!!!

**tab** · 10-09-08, 03:34 PM

the spread now for halftime is Houston -10.5 (-115) at the greek. It is -11 (-115) at betmaker. Probably lot of action on Houston at the half.

**EaglesPhan36** · 10-09-08, 04:55 PM

I like the OVER for the 1st half or the UNDER for the game.

**bosterosoy** · 10-09-08, 05:35 PM

Love your UAB pick.

**mogwai** · 10-09-08, 05:51 PM

I am on Houston and the Over. This one is gonna be 55 - 24

**The_Kid** · 10-09-08, 06:46 PM

FYI, 60% of the public is on Houston and the line has moved back down to -17.5.

**diogee** · 10-09-08, 06:48 PM

Took some UAB +18 +100 at match

**xyzky** · 10-09-08, 07:25 PM

Houston needs to get on the freakin scoreboard...Then this point train will be running!!

**Dbldown11** · 10-09-08, 07:28 PM

yeah, well they just fumbled a punt and uab has it at their 17 yrd line..............not looking good

**Andrewsurf** · 10-09-08, 07:30 PM

**Dbldown11** · 10-09-08, 07:30 PM

**atlsportsfan** · 10-09-08, 07:38 PM

Not sure if i want to watch it with the score right now

**xyzky** · 10-09-08, 07:40 PM

Lord have Mercy what the F*ck!! Houston should have at least 14 here if not 21.

**Tigers1230** · 10-09-08, 07:42 PM

Houston looks VERY slow and their D is already tired from chasing around Webb, the UAB quarterback. Not looking good at all fellas.

**xyzky** · 10-09-08, 07:46 PM

Well down 4 td's now, at least there is 3 quarters to play!!

**mmike032** · 10-09-08, 07:48 PM

houston is down 3 TDs?

WTF
