    Troy at Middle Tennessee State
    What do we know about these 2 other than the line just went from -3.5 to -3 and that some of us can piss on our bet at the half ?

    QB Dwight Dasher returns from suspension tonight for MTSU. Troy played Oklahoma State close. They have won and covered 4 straight meetings between these two and have won 11 straight Sun Belt games.

    Hard to not want to take the points except for that week night home dog crap and still recent memories of a suspect defense giving up a last second Hail Mary

    from a logical standpoint Troy should be favored. So in gambling on football I have come to the conclusion that you look at what should happe, pick a side that makes 100% sense, and go the other way. MTSU is the play because its fukin stupid!

        the books made mtsu the favorite because this is the only game tonight. most people don't know anything about these two schools and they're more likely to bet the favorite without much thought. troy should be favored here.

          the murphy and kilgore kids were merely average for mtsu...Dasher would be destroying the shit teams they have played so far...(best way to describe mtsu the first 4 weeks is its like they replaced Vick with an injured Kolb for the first month..haha).. kid is an awesome athlete and supposedly hasnt missed a step in practice... their defense is a little suspect... for fukksake they lost to memphis of all teams..but troy gives up a bunch of points and Dasher will pick them apart... MTSU rolls at home with the best player in the conference and possibly Over is what i expect out of this game...

            The game is a coin flip.

            Dasher coming back will lift this team tremendously, he is leaps and bounds better than the other 2 qb's.

            But then again Troy could put up 70.

              The Trojans have dominated this series in recent years and should continue to do so tonight. Middle Tennessee is home, so they should be able to keep it close, but Troy is too strong offensively and will find a way to win.

                  players are rusty when they miss time because of injury. this guy was not injured. perfect example is AJ Green of Georgia when he came back this week and lit the scoreboard.

                    Scoring 27 points in college does not constitute "lit the scoreboard" Especially against a Colorado defense who gave up 52 to Cal 2 games before.

                      I think the smartest play here is a pass this game is like throwing a dart to see who could win theres no real logical way to cap it. Troy is the better football team but mid ten state with qb and home could pull it out im staying outta this game.

                        I have to make a play a day per my agreement and with only one game on the board I couldn't pass tonight so I teased Troy +9 and over 57.

                                  The over seems to be inflated. MTSU has good defense and this game is very critical for both teams to become a shootout.

                                          64 at some places and climbing.

                                          Troy played a few teams out of conference which made their defense look worse than what it is within the division.

                                                The wrong team is favored in this game. I'm taking Troy and the 3 points.

                                                        Logical conclusion: Troy should be favored.
                                                        Fact: They are not.

                                                        Fact: MTSU is favored.
                                                        Further conclusion: Makes no sense except for last conclusion below.

                                                        Last conclusion: Most will play favorite.
                                                        Fact: Most usually lose.

Who knows really - maybe cuz they haven't lost by 3.5 yet this year? I am cursed at betting though so all of you betting on Troy I apologize in advance! Here are my thoughts:

MTSU was picked to win the league and get their stud QB back plus they're at home going against a freshmen QB.
