    Nebraska -16.5 is a gift.
    Colorado will show everyone they are not a team that deserves to be in a bowl...they will get down early and quit.

    -16.5 is a gift. This will move to -17more than likely.

    Hmmm... After watching Nebraska's game last week I wouldn't touch Nebraska till they leave the Big 12...

    Maybe they will get a fair chance since Colorado is leaving as well but again I would tread slowing...

          **** me 16.5 is a HUGE line you guys. Discussing it with a friend yesterday we thought it would be closer to 9.5 and we are both die hard Husker fans. That is a lot for an injured husker team who has had nothing but controversy this week.

          Jesus that's a lot.

              Too much drama going on at Nebraska .... I recommend staying away from this one, there are better games out there, but I would lean on Colorado + the points ... Nebraska has been playing shitty the last couple of weeks ... BOL

                    I'm in Colorado (though originally from Miami) and the team seems to be playing for the new fella after tanking it for the last coach. I've bet against them and been burned by them.

                      Me too. I thought for sure K-State would beT them last week and it didn't happen.

                      Nebraska beat Iowa State by 1 point and scored a total of 6 points last week. Do you really want to lay 17 in this spot?

                      It's a Rivalry game as well. I like Colorado.

                        colorado is autobet at home and autofade on the road. 2 completely diffferent teams.

                        great week to get value on nebraska as all of the controversy has kept the line down.

                          Dude, it opened at -24! The line has been moving in the opposite direction! Colorado has been a completely different team since Hawkins got fired and they're playing with tons of confidence. Things have been super chaotic with Nebraska this week and they will be playing without (most likely) Martinez and Niles Paul, their two best offensive players.

                          Colorado could easily win this game. CU ML might actually be a good investment bet. I got it at +700 yesterday.

                                Can't take Nebraska here with Niles Paul out and Cody Green starting at QB.

                                        this game seems like bankroll death. Gun to head, Colorado, they have a decent offense and can keep it close

                                            I completely agree... I took KSU last week too. The Buffs seem to be playing inspired ball the last few weeks, while Nebraska is pretty banged up. I'd take CU at +14.5 or more...

                                              I really like Colorado to play tough here. They have nothing to lose and everything to gain in this spot.

Colorado has been a completely different team since Hawkins got fired and they're playing with tons of confidence. Things have been super chaotic with Nebraska this week and they will be playing without (most likely) Martinez and Niles Paul, their two best offensive players. Colorado could easily win this game. CU ML might actually be a good investment bet. I got it at +700 yesterday.
                                                        Already confirmed. OP must be betting whatever lines look good on paper.

                                                          This game is really a stupid one to bet on. Nobody has any idea how the officiating will go, nor how Nebraska is going to play. One thing is pretty much 100% for sure though, Nebraska will win the game. For their ML play to be profitable they have to win a far less percentage of the time than they will. I say 95% Nebraska wins. If you want action here, take Nebraska ML. Otherwise you're flipping a coin and throwing away equity.

                                                            This isn't the same Nebraska team we saw at the beginning of the year. Without a healthy Martinez at QB, they have no offense.

                                                            Can they even score 17 points?

                                                            Colorado has covered and burned me two weeks in a row. Likewise, Nebraska killed me last weekend when they didn't cover. I think I've learned my lesson.

                                                            If I play this game, I'll take Colorado and not the team that beat Iowa State by 1 in overtime and scored only 6 points last week.

                                                              Sounds like an under play? I know Colorado has been involved in some high scoring games of late, but it sounds like the consensus here is that Nebraska will have trouble scoring and the Buffs shouldn't go bonkers, either.
