    So are you saying then to take Tech +19.5 or + 20

    Is that what you are saying here?

    Don't start on the beer so early in the morning!!

    You will wind up like Larry Hagman who died at 81!

    Rip Larry Hagman aka J.R. Ewing of Dallas!

    I see your point though!!

    K-State blew out Texas and probably will be overlooking this game for the Okst. game. I feel like there will be a backdoor cover here.

    Tread carefully.

    Jordan Henriquez, the starting/6th man center will miss this game to attend his grandmothers funeral. Will Spradling, the starting shooting guard and do everything guy is questionable after a hit to the chest sustained in the Texas game.

    There is also a blizzard coming into Kansas tonight that will hinder attendance. Energy in the arena could be low.

    I will say, I expect K-State to cruise and be up 20-25 much of the second half but then for the game to get a bit tighter and Tech to cover. I think K-State 1H would be a better bet if you wanted to bet the game.

    Yep, my play is on TTU also, got in at 19.5 yesterday, I figured it would be a typical KSU win at home of 10-16pts.

    You can't bet based on what's happened in previous meetings with different opponents. It's like betting based on past trends in head to head matchups with prior teams that don't exist in that form anymore.

    I wouldn't put one red cent on K-State in this spot.

    There's just something about this Kansas State team I don't trust. GL with your play, but staying away.

    I have my lines with kansas st at -18 1/2 for the game and -11 for the 1st half. I think both will come in but which do you think is the more favorable one to take?

    If I had to chose between those two lines I would go with K-State 1H, but I think the play is TCU +18.5 and I am a K-State fan.

    tough call on the game, this kansas team is just under 70 pts per average, but the last five games they topped the 80's in three of them, I wonder if they can do it again? If they could i'd take them to cover, and they hold TT under 60 pts, that would be nice. I'll probably bet them anyway.

    Made a small play on Texas Tech because I think this is a classic look ahead game for Kansas State. Kansas State by 15.

    The spread is a function of the amount of bets put in whichever position, not a game-theoretic signal necessarily.

    Yeah but linemakers have to set an initial line even before the bets start flowing in. Resulting line movement of course can be impacted by the direction of the money flowing in.

    2 points for recognizing the Blizzard of Oz! I am currently in this. So far pretty weak but we already got 12 inches of snow from last week. 12 more expected...

    not good for us who are k st so far. 1st half is toast for me already i was hoping they'd cover 6 in 10 minutes. 10 bucks, and not higher, thank goodness
