Will Penn State Finally cover a huge spread?

lakerboy · 09-19-09, 12:45 AM

under is the call 3 weeks in a row pstate likes to make it look decent

topgame85 · 09-19-09, 12:53 AM

Yah shoud be if you like under 47 gotta lean temple I would think to stay under 47 and penn state cover is a tight space 38-7 or so would keep it under and penn state cover but anything other than that is pretty much a temple +30 if you like the under also

I highly doubt Temple even gets on the board tomorrow. If they do it will be a late garbage score.

pags11 · 09-19-09, 01:00 AM

with their offensive line issues I can't recommend laying these kind of points with PSU...no way I play Temple though...

topgame85 · 09-19-09, 01:10 AM

hmmm so no play for pags I guess

When Pags speaks in the Players Talk forum you better listen.

topgame85 · 09-19-09, 01:13 AM

haha thats what I was thinking BTJ may have just moved this to a no play for me although i do think temple covers the 30

I agree with pags-i live in in state college-which is where psu is located. I am not a homer--

imo they are the most over rated team in the country. There is no way they are the 5th best team in the country-ru kidding me. They failed to cover against akron and syracuse. It wasn't because they are "classy" and didn't want to run it up-its because they are not that good of a team and made mistakes. They play a horrible out of conference schedule and the big ten is weak.

Psu is definately looking past temple and looking ahead to next week against iowa under the lights. Iowa knocked them off last year stopping them from going undefeated.

Their big game is next week vs. Iowa ...........they have been looking ahead to that game all year.

A shame, as they will probably lose that game.

penn state 42-7

jjgold · 09-19-09, 07:19 AM

Penn St is a very good team but not a great team. I would never take them laying big points.

xyzky · 09-19-09, 07:22 AM

I have Temple a play at 31.5, if it gets there...

KingJIM · 09-19-09, 07:43 AM

Temple did lose to a Football Championship School. Granted Villanova is one of the better FCS schools. Penn State could win by half a hundred but they seem to play down to their competition or let off the gas when up several scores.

RageWizard · 09-19-09, 08:39 AM

I work at Penn State albeit part time, and at a different campus, but word is that old ass Joe Pa was pissed with the teams lack of passion last week against who was it Sarah-cuse I think. Anyway, this is Temple's big game every year, and they usually play Penn State tough. Well tough as in covering, but for some reason I went with the 30 points and Penn State this week, only because of a student who has a brother at the main campus who has been saying that they have been laying the wood around the practice facility to try and get the players to have some more excitement towards playing cheerleader teams. Ya, I'm stupid for taking a students advice, but if it pans out, he gets extra credit, which he will need, because he is more occupied with nailing chicks than learning Statics. Can't say that I blame him, statics is boring.

xxxvince · 09-19-09, 08:52 AM

i got burned last week picking penn st, they didnt cover the spread and the over line. if temple is really really shitty, then because they gotta make up some style points pounding some bad teams

aman86 · 09-19-09, 09:04 AM

agree with khaden, just don't think its worth taking the risk on temple though, too close a call with another 30pt spread

twincities77 · 09-19-09, 10:43 AM

Got Temple at +29.5 (+100). This means way more to Temple than Penn St; also Temple is not as bad as some might think (obviously they're not Penn St. caliber, but they're not awful). Temple is also off a bye. Lastly, I believe I read that Temple's head coach and some of the assistants worked under Paterno. This makes me think he won't run it up.

Chi_archie · 09-19-09, 10:55 AM

PSU's offense has struggled at times this season, their offensive line is all out of sync, guys are playing out of position, first year starters ect.... PSU rarely scores much in the 2nd half when they are up big, and just use about 6 plays out of their vanilla offensive play book

SmackdownV · 09-19-09, 10:56 AM

Are you guys really serious?

Penn State beat the Cuse by 28 last week and this is Temple.

Come on..........If you took Temple to cover today............you might as well eat that ticket now and poop it out Sunday.

Chi_archie · 09-19-09, 11:15 AM

Psu putting a nice drive together

topgame85 · 09-19-09, 11:40 AM

If temple gets anything here they should cover

kurocks · 09-19-09, 12:51 PM

They covered the first now -11 for the second I am on it

topgame85 · 09-19-09, 02:15 PM

0-3 they refuse to win by 30 or more psu fans who are betting their team have got to be pissed

Good call lakerboy

whatdafuxup · 09-19-09, 03:29 PM

Why would anyone in their right mind bet Penn St and a 4+ td spread? Just not smart.

xxxvince · 09-19-09, 03:43 PM

fking penn state burned me on spread and over points two weeks in a row now! damn!!!!

PSU is way way way over-rated...

they might grow INTO a top 10-20 team, but at this point they are not that good...

all new secondary, all new O-line, all new receiving corp..... they are learning as they go...... with a weak sched...and still struggling
