TCU +2000 to win BCS

Enogsiwon · 12-02-09, 01:44 AM

This and Cowboys +1700 are solid.. The cowboys will be able to matchup with the Saints much like the Giants did with the Pats... The cowboys have just enough time to fix their offense.. ton of value here...

rm18 · 12-02-09, 01:52 AM

I think Dallas loses this week but +1700 to win it all looks good.

rm18 · 12-02-09, 01:54 AM

TCU should be favored in the title game and Nebraska has a great shot to knock off Texas

rm18 · 12-02-09, 01:55 AM

Have to worry a little about Cincy but don't think they can leap the Frogs, they probably do not beat Pitt anyways.

TCU was -20 over the 16th ranked team in the country while Florida was -12 at MS St. I would expect TCU to be favored based on this.

You're on crack. So when it's Florida vs. Texas, mind you Florida probably -5.5.

TCU vs. Florida if Nebraska wins and Bama loses, TCU +12.5 minimum.

The Books made Florida -22 at home vs FSU and TCU -19 vs Utah. You think Utah is favored by less than 3 on a neutral site against FSU?

rm18 · 12-02-09, 02:05 AM

based on your line Florida St. would be -15 at home vs. Utah

Man, you might be right! I am not the authority here. My humble opinion the BCS title game will be played Dec 5 Alabama vs Florida..... That's your title game jack. Whoever wins that will be your champion. Us dumb redneck southerners have little respect on any conference not named the SEC...and TCU at that?? TCU might play like hell against Alabama or Florida for the 1H, but dick will be dragging in the second half. They don't have the size,depth, or speed to play 4 quarters with an SEC champion.

LT Profits · 12-02-09, 02:12 AM

This WOULD be a nice play if College Football had a playoff system, as I do think that TCU would have a chance with their great defense.

However, with the system as it is, this is throwing money away because TCU has virtually no chance to play in the title game.

Tell that to Henne, Long, Carr, Graham, and the rest of the boys that beat up Timmy in the swamp in 07.

That was after they got bounced from the title game, and didn't give a crap...same with Alabama last year.

Another possible fade of the loser between Florida/Alabama in their bowl game.

This has zero chance to win correct. This is just throwing away money.

rm18 · 12-02-09, 02:21 AM

they need Nebraska to win that is it, possibly Cincy could pass them but unlikely

rm18 · 12-02-09, 02:22 AM

no chance they let the title game be a Florida Alabama rematch

?? They are already playing the title game this Saturday in Atl,Ga.

Whoever, loses will present a good fade opp possibly

poker_dummy101 · 12-02-09, 02:30 AM

then why not just go with nebraska/tcu ML double ups

rm18 · 12-02-09, 02:31 AM

I am saying no chance the BCS title game is Florida vs. Alabama. People are acting like it is impossible for TCU to rach the game when they basically just need Nebraska to win.

This isn't even possible...the loser of this game WILL NOT get into the championship game...simple as that.

TCU will be a small dog if not favored in the title game it will not pay anywhere near +2000.

If Alabama wins TCU is definitely favored.

If that's the case, you can already get +500 on Nebraska.

LT Profits · 12-02-09, 02:35 AM

If Nebraska upsets Texas, BCS Game should be either a Florida/Alabama rematch or SEC Winner vs. Cincinnati, assuming they beat Pitt.

So for TCU to make title game:

1 - Nebraska has to beat Texas (unlikely)
2 - Pittsburgh has to beat Cincinnati (possible, but I like Cincy)
3 - If 2 does not happen, has to remain above Cincy in BCS Ratings (possible, but SOS difference may put Bearcats ahead with win over Pitt)
4 - Even if they survive first three, have to leapfrog 1-loss SEC team (50/50)

At LEAST...I would guess about 9.5 to 10.5.

I am not saying you are wrong, but simply disagreeing with you. TCU @ +2000 might present some value because there is a shot. There is always a shot. However, if they do make the title game that is. What are there real chances of competing for 4 qrts against an SEC champion. They lack the size,speed, and depth to go 4 qrts with Alabama or Florida.

BubbleBobble · 12-02-09, 02:37 AM

+3600 for 20 bucks at MB at the moment, hurry if you think it's a good bet ^^

Not true. If Texas loses, SEC loser would still be more worthy than TCU or Cincy. Not saying it will happen, but not a given that it will not.

rm18 · 12-02-09, 02:40 AM

They do not lack anything but depth and this is not basketball.

rm18 · 12-02-09, 02:41 AM

I guess it is possible for a one loss Florida team to play for the title. 0% shot for a one loss Bama team.

LT, mathematically it's possible. I just don't think the poll voters will let it happen.

Irrelevant, it's all about the ratings.

And I actually LIKE TCU and I wish they would be given the opportunity. I just don't see it.
