Thursday's Selection ...
20 DIMER - MISSOURI TIGERS - This has trap number written all over it.
Nebraska opened a 1-point favorite and Joe Public has steadily moved this number up to 3 1/2 with a few 4's popping up as of this morning.
Now from what I gather, everyone is jumping on Nebraska mainly because of their effort at Virginia Tech, a game they should have won outright except when you settle for field goals instead of touchdowns, you are asking to lose.
Maybe it's just me but I personally think Virginia Tech is overrated and I won't base anything on that game in handicapping this game here.
This is conference play. This is "I know you and you know me" and it is a matter of who is going to do it better.
Both teams off a bye week so both will be ready to roll.
Missouri isn't just going to lay down and hand Nebraska this win. They will fight for their life against a team they have owned the last 2 years.
At home in 2007 Missouri as a 6-point favorite wins 41-6 and last year at Nebraska as a 10-point road favorite wins 52-17.
Now this year the Cornhuskers are all of a sudden a 3 1/2 to 4 point road favorite? As I said at the top, this has trap written all over it.
It wouldn't surpise me in the least to see this game as a field goal game and that put's the value right smack dab on the underdog.
It's easy to pad your defensive stats against the likes of 3 Sun Belt teams, and Virginia Tech. Now they step up and face the best offense Nebraska has seen all year and you are asking them to lay points here? I just don't see it.
I love value on Thursday night and the underdog is barking again tonight. Who is listening to that bark? I AM.
Grab the home dog with Missouri.
