RE: ODU vs Rice
I think we'll win somewhat handily, but FIU was a 10pt favorite over us.

RE: ODU vs Rice
To be fair, I said we should win. Should being the operative word.

We aren't good enough to be confident in a victory, but the team has been trending up and I'm optimistic against Rice. ODU 24 Rice 20

RE: ODU vs Rice
This might be a dumb question, but is Stubhub a good place to buy football and basketball tickets? I've never used it before.

I've never had any problems buying tickets for ODU games there.

I prefer SeatGeek, it compiles all the different ticketing sites to let you know where the best deals are. Green = good deal, red = bad deal.

RE: ODU vs Rice
Monarchs are 9 to 9.5 point favorites for Saturday, depending on where you look. I was expecting a little closer to 7.

I believe we win this one convincingly, something like cmett003 predicts here. What is really tantalizing is how a win over Rice could set up the game with MTSU. Of course it will be a big game for us, but it could be huge for both teams. The Blue Raiders are sitting at 5-5 with their "100 miles of hate" game coming up with Western Kentucky Friday night. If we win, and they lose (which is entirely possible), it would set up the last game of the season with the winner being bowl eligible and the loser being through for the season. If it turns out that way, what a way to end the season, and I cannot think of a better time to break the Empty Sue strangle hold on the Monarchs.
Meanwhile -- no more looking ahead and back to Rice. Time to go 1-0 against the Owls!

Im rooting for MTSU in that one. I'd rather them not be so desperate for a win and maybe taking a rest after becoming bowl eligible. Frankly, I just hope we're 5-6 at that point and then let the chips fall where they may.
