What to do with this game in Vegas - csstevem - 08-23-2017 10:11 AM I will be in LV for the NIU BC game, not sure what to do. The spread is BC-2.5 and the over under is 46. Thinking about hitting the under hard as BC should be able to shut down the NIU running game and without Galladay and with Graham I am not comfortable that NIU will score much. BC is far from a powerhouse offensive team but I am having a hard time seeing NIU winning against a team with the 13th rated front seven defense. So I think the under at 46 maybe a strong bet. However I also do not see NIU winning this one. However I really want to cheer on my Huskies. I have a classic NIU Huskie on my arm, have two huskies at home in Georgia and want to have fun. Any thoughts............ Please no spelling or English corrections. I am a long time ago grad with an accounting background and my thought or hiking the mountains of Utah and gaming in LV. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - thxjoenovak - 08-23-2017 11:19 AM FWIW: I like under also as I think this will be an ugly "taffy-pull" of a game. Something like 23-20.....Huskies. Maybe it's the kool-aid but somehow we get back to being tough at home. The D and FGs win this one for us. Good luck in LV RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - MileHighHuskie - 08-23-2017 12:07 PM I bet the Huskies a lot and they usually cover. I think Huskies beat BC... funny feeling maybe. In fact I talked to a pit boss and he mentioned the Huskies by name for a team that he usually bets on, and he had a lot of info and back fill and was right. Beat BC! RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - MaddDawgz02 - 08-23-2017 12:14 PM Better have a lead vs BC at the half. I think this is a year where NIU will actually be a better 1st half team than a 2nd half team. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - badmoonrising13 - 08-23-2017 05:03 PM NIU will fall behind early and it will take Carey too long to replace Graham, and we'll lose 24-21 after Santa leads three TD drives. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - 7 - 08-23-2017 05:54 PM I'll give you a billion dollars if Santa leads 3 TD drives next Friday RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - Big Redd - 08-23-2017 06:30 PM If late money pushes huskies to +4 I would bet on niu. If not I don't want to touch it. I hate betting the under given the unknown with special teams. Look at how we scored on BC last year for example.

Just bet NIU on the money line so you don't have to concern yourself with backdooring into covering a spread or staying under/going over totals. As a fan, I dislike when my rooting interests conflict with my betting interests. Just be a fan and hope you cash in a winning ticket for plus money if NIU can manage to come out on top in this game. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - csstevem - 08-25-2017 07:52 AM Well i took NIU plus three a small wager, I really want to cheer for NIU. The under will not post until Monday and I will be in St George Utah for some hiking, hopefully it stays around 46. Any thoughts on the illness -7.5 with Ball St (line started at -11.5) and WM +28 with USC. EMU is also going like hot cakes out here. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - Skinut - 08-25-2017 08:51 AM I'd definitely take WMU. That's huge. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - NIUSAE - 08-25-2017 09:29 AM Wouldn't touch WMU. Freshman QB and new wide receivers against a top 5 team. QB will be lucky if he gets out of there injury free.

I think it would be more humane to go to the Coliseum in Rome and watch the lions maul the gladiators. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - randyfensfanclub1 - 08-26-2017 09:44 AM Run away, don't play and be happy if they win.

Don't bet on teams that you have any sort of emotional investment in. There are hundreds of other games to get action on. RE: What to do with this game in Vegas - machoman83 - 08-26-2017 03:31 PM Take Wyoming +12 against Iowa (Iowa doesn't blow many teams out with their style of play) Also take Florida +4 against Michigan.
