Hawaii -9.5

bhg · Oct 1, 2003

This line has dropped rapidly, Tulsa is coming off of a bye week after thumping Arkansas St out of nowhere. Hawaii's score against Rice is a tad deceiving - rice had 2 fumble returns for TDs. Can they go the mainland and win this game by 10 points? The team has made a boatload of mistakes and turnovers so far.

Thoughts?

according to wagerline this line opened up at 15
I was wondering about the huge drop myself...I think Hawaii can cover 9.5

I am on Tulsa.

Hawaii is taking Tulsa way, way too lightly. They won't get into Tulsa until late Thursday. Nobody in the Hawaii camp is even considering losing to Tulsa. Their focus is on Fresno St. next week. UH is without 3 of 4 starting wideouts due to injury and suspension and the backups have lousy hands and dropped several easy TD passes against Rice. UH is also without their best DL (Sopoanga). UH still has not solved their turnover problem as Rice covered due to 2 fumbles returned for TD's.

Tulsa is brimming with confidence after a blowout win against Ark St and had the bye week to prepare for UH's run and shoot.

This will be a close, high scoring game.

liked tulsa at 15. liked them at 14. no like them here. when EVERYONE is on one side like they are here - i either take the other side or pass.

tulsa seems to be the right side but ALL of the value has gone out of the line. we have gone past key numbers of 14 then 10 so there is no way i want tulsa +9.5 when it was 15 sunday night

100% pass here

line down to 9 or 8.5

FYI Winky, I still see value in Tulsa all the way down to +7. Congrats on getting it higher. (I got it at 11). Maybe you could call Berman for us and see who the "swami" likes.
