You're right about them being bad lines, but for the opposite reason. Penn St should be -8.5 at most on the road @ Purdue, and Mizzou should be -9 probably. Neither should be double digit road favs in conference against decent teams.

I'm not sold on either one being a top 10 team. One of these two will likely lose SU this week.

Mizzou not a top ten team. LOL they went 11-2(only 2 losses were to Oklahoma who's ranked #1 btw) last year and beat Arkansas 38-7 in their bowl game( with Felix Jones and Darren McFadden, the same team that won at LSU who won the National Championship btw...no they're not a top 10 ten LMFAO

Usually when something looks too good to be true, it is...obviously vegas knows or sees something we don't...being a season ticket holder and donor, i personally think neb gets rolled this weekend and I was shocked at the line, especially after being at the game vs. va tech.

But, usually when vegas does something like this, there is a reason.

BOL whichever way you go, I'd bet mizzu personally, but I can't ever go against my team.

is it because they plugged stats into a system?? or do they actually judge by watching games??

You can't throw an 18 point line out for Mizzou on the road as people would pound Nebraska, but if anyone has watched Nebrasksa play this year, I see know reason why Mizzou scores less than 42 pts.

I agree with Delta. Also a Husker and I dont see us having a chance. The problem with this line is it does look to good to be true, so buyer beware!

I don't think either line is too far off but I think Mizzou and Penn St. both look like top ten teams. I don't know how you could argue these two teams shouldn't be where they are.

The fact that Missouri opened up as under a double digit favorite concerns me but I am taking my chances as the line should be at least 2 TD's.

I do know USC was a 10 point fav last year and we all know how bad my 'Skers got rolled...

Neb will score some points in this game, Mizzu has been passed on a lot this year...the problem is, Mizzu will score much more....the Over might be a real nice play...

gary pinkel on the road as a double digit chalk? seriously? if missouri can simply win the game straight up it will be an accomplishment. thats not an indictment of the tigers (well.... its somewhat of the staff) but this is a very lose-able game.

You Guys Think LV Is Always Perfect

They're not, especially in CFB. Don't know if Tigers -10 is one or not, but each wk there are some made.

Think Iowa +9, 9.5 is a little ridiculous. Sparty is not a good defensive ball club - I give Iowa an advantage in the OL vs. DL matchup.

Iowa is not as bad as they showed vs. NW. Sparty can't be trusted to beat Iowa by 10.


Will almost certainly play Iowa this Saturday.

I was shocked when I saw this one open up at higher than 7.

MSU can't catch and they aren't that good on D. I think this game is perfect 17-14, 20-13 kind of Sparty win.
