I don't think that the So Miss defense will be able to stop their offense, and the Houston defense is giving up less than two touchdowns a game on average in their last four games. As for So. Miss, they've been inconsistent lately. What's up with losing to UAB a couple of weeks ago? Statistically, they're not markedly better than Tulsa, and we saw what happened to the Golden Hurricane last week as just a 3 point dog. GLTA

It seems Houston has developed a little defense, and SoMiss has NO chance at slowing Houston I think the books have thsi line set to make SoMiss look like have a chance. Houston large!!!

S.Miss. average score for all is 32 to 20,and for the ones on the road average score is 32 to 25 . They won and covered 4 , won 1 S/U no cover and lost 2 . Houston average score is 52 to 23,and for the ones at home average score is 64 to 14. They won and covered 5 and won 2 S/U no cover ,but lost none. I got to take Cougars with Case -13

Prospect Joined: Sep 2007 Posts: 151 Location: Colorado	#12 Posted: 12/2/2011 2:46:34 PM Wacky, It seems that Houston has a tendency to start slow, so I don't expect a first half blowout. Also, Keenum has been leaving games when they are well out of reach. Given this is his last game before Heisman voting, though, I'd expect him to play a bit longer than usual...just so he'll at least get the invite to NYC.

Miss......packed house, last home game for all seniors and Sugar Bowl bound. LonghornHoosier, be more original with Cooger high crap, that garbage is 30 years old......your Hoosiers and your Horns both suck in every sport!

Good analysis...hope you are playing with play money...I like Keenum's 43 TD's and only 3 picks...The only thing that is going to burst is So Miss's secondary when he throws darts through it....

Rookie Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 732 Location: Arizona	#19 Posted: 12/3/2011 7:26:13 AM Great thread, and also would like to add the fact that this is a revenge game. I normally don't put a ton of stock into that, but if you add in the possible (albeit improbable) "Armageddon" scenario, they have every reason to get up for this game and play out of there minds. The Cougs D has only improved last 4-5 games, especially in their house. Note: Kendrick Hardy is listed as questionable, and although he hasn't played since week 6, he gashed Houston's D last year for over 200 yards and 2 TDs. Also, as Bhumphrey said above, don't overlook Dantin, he can throw it rather efficiently,and can tuck n run at the drop of a hat. All this being said, I just cannot see UH letting up in this game and not covering by 2 TDs for the ATS win...but then again, that's why they play the game. I actually think they will even beat whomever they meet in the (possible) Sugar Bowl, but that's a month away...feelin Houston 48-27...GLTA

I got to take Cougars with Case -13 This is the reason, I say "A no play" for me. Have followed So. Miss this year and have made money with them. My gut feeling is they cover. However, the stats say otherwise.
