    Colorado state alert

    COLORADO STATE ALERT................i was LOVING CSU too, that is until i read the yahoo writeup on the 22 point blowout win last time they played. not only did csu shoot 16 more FT's with a bunch of home calls. but look at this quote at the end of the article..........

    "The Falcons were without three starters. Injuries sidelined leading scorer Grant Parker (groin strain), Sammy Schafer (concussion) and Taylor Stewart (broken hand)."

    3 STARTERS, leading scorer? come on

    ya no problem i was hot and bothered for CSU when i looked at the way the two teams are playing. i figured the line should really be CSU -6. not anymore. i still think CSU is a decent play, but not a gem like everyone thinks

    Looked into this game a little further Air Force will be w/o Schafer and Stewart tonight one for injury the other for personal reasons. Parker however is listed as probable due to flu, he avg. 14 pts per game(leading scorer for Air Force). Hope this helps for everyone and BOL... Big Dave

    AF without 2 key starters. even with them AF lose. AK are akin to the nets in the nba. fade against them with good quality teams and you will prosper. home court adavantage will not negate the underlying problem and that is, AF stink.

    You sound confident in the Rams, I just don't see it, but good luck.

    Not to sound negative, but when has this form of capping ever worked out well, so and so beat so and so by x amount so they should beat so and so by x amount.

    I seen the spread last night(-1.5) and jumped all over CSU thinking the spread would go up today. It was up to 2 before I logged off last night. I see it anywhere from 2-3 pts today. Starting to look like a trap game. It looks too easy, but let's hope not. Go CSU!

    not on sheer win/loss percentage of course. the way they approach the game. they lack skill, lack talent, lack depth, lack heart. all ingredients for being very profitable fade material. let's face it if we were talking about a double digit spread we wouldn't be having this discussion but we are talking about getting only 2 albeit at home against a far superior outfit. this is a gift. as the saying goes, don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

    Colorado State isn't a very good road team IMHO.

    under no circumstance would i take air force, not even at +8.............and i wouldnt take CSU at -4, but at -2.5 i will take them on a small play. mainly cause of what big dave said about the roster outlook, flu ect

    agreed they are not a "very good road team" but there are very few teams that are. they are adequate which is sufficient against bad teams remembering that air force in the conf are 1-8 versus cs that are 5-4 (2-2 on the road). cs are playing good quality ball. not sure the same can be said for AF that are 1-8 SU in their last 9 games. apart from home court advantage which may be worth up to say 5 points for AF if you were to try and put a number on it, i just can't see AF turning around a 22 point caning last month.

    i love when teams let players with flu like symptoms play. they run out of steam real quick and bring the whole team down. they have nothing to give in the second half especially when the chips are down

    This game is on the Streak for the Cash schedule. 99.4% are on the Rams. I stay away from plays that are on the Streak.
