I have seen KSU as 6.5 under dogs

Opened at 7.5 where I am and dropped to 7.0 yesterday. If it’s 6.5 everywhere today, that means some sizable money has gone down on KSU. I like to play a couple $10 or $20 wagers each week. I’m headed down to the sports book in a couple hours and can check out what it is now, at least here on the Mississippi.

Opened Toledo -4 moved to -7.
98 percent money with Toledo.

Here's what I've seen.

I think Boca Rocket is right. If there's one school in the MAC that knows the betting lines it's Toledo.

Zing.

I'd like to see who had it at -4. I follow it pretty closely and all the early lines I saw come out Sunday were -7.5 and it's slowly tracked down the last couple of days.

Hard to watch, not hard to see. It is like the varsity playing the junior varsity. The difference in speed and strength is a chasm wide. Hope we have some defensive size coming in.

Crum's ball placement is absolutely phenomenal. 7-8 for 192 and 2 tds so far. Could be in for a big night.

I have a question... Is there any possibility a player can petition the NCAA for a year of eligibility back in the event that they get hurt quickly in their 5th game? In previous years I believe you could regain a year if you got hurt before a certain point. The reason I ask is Bangda still isn't back and he literally got hurt on the first carry of his 5th game. If he could get this year back shutting him down for the last 3 would probably be a good idea.

Nevermind. As soon as I ask he gets a carry. So I guess he's back.

Wow, it was there for the taking. UT got the ball back with over 5 to go and their freshman backup QB just coming in and we let them run the clock out without forcing one pass attempt. Our run defense is beyond pathetic and we mismanaged our second half timeouts.

Still outmanned generally all over the place. It will take another year or two to fill the lineup with better D-I athletes. The solution for the run defense is bigger, stronger, faster players. The recruiting is there but it takes so much time to show up on the field.

Sure, I was pretty hard on the team in the 1st Qtr, but I am proud of the effort of this team. I will say that they have heart and the coaches did a good job with what they had. We are getting better, even though there is a long way to go. Size and Strength.

Difference came down to that ill-timed roughing the passer penalty that negated the pick and led to a quick TD.

Where was McCoy and Shaw? Two key offensive players, especially McCoy.

Shaw is no longer listed on the roster

+1

The I'll advised WR pass play that took us out of FG range wound up being big too.

I noticed that too but the announcer said he was hurt.
