Iowa -6.5? vs. Perfect Minnesota team?

How in the world is this right? Iowa may be one of the most disappointing teams this season and have looked awful in both its wins and losses. 

What am I missing here?

Yeah, she ain't bad. Shame she quit doing porn. Lol.

So you're with me on Iowa? Makes no sense right? And I guess in this case, best thing to do is stay away? I usually don't seek out advice, just soak it what I read. But this line TRULY boggles my mind and I know someone has to have some insight here.

And while we're at it ... Missouri +2.5 at UCF? Feel the same about that, really. Just strange.

It reminds me of that FSU line a few weeks back when everyone was jumping all over Wake at +28. My theory is that when Vegas sets a line that's too good to be true, it probably is.

FSU 52, Wake 0.

Pray tell, what makes you think Iowa can win this game? That's what I can't fathom.

Granted, Minnesota is no world beater. But 4-0 against a so-so schedule, is 4-0. And their QB is mobile and can beat you with his arm or feet. That makes for a long day for Iowa's slow, smash-mouth defense that doesn't like finese teams and loves to just bottle up the run, snag a few sacks, score 17 points on offense and call it a day.

Problem is, THIS Iowa offense blows. And this is not your grandaddy's Iowa team that once was always formidable. Seems like that program is going down the tubes with all the trouble its players have been in and this may be the last week Iowa is a fav or a team as good as Minnesota will be this small of a dog against them.

Yeah, you're right about one thing: no more trying to figure this one out.

Just gonna bet Minn. on moneyline and parlay it with another dog I feel good about for a nice chunk. Time will tell if I'm right. Did same with UM and K-State last week and what I snagged there woud've paid for my whole weekend and then some had I lost every other bet (which, of course, I didn't).

Anyway, Cups .. thanks. BOL.

MarQeis Gray is not playing tomorrow.  That's a huge double-threat loss at quarterback.

Add that to the fact that Minnesota is who Minnesota is...bottom of the pack Big 10 team with a sub-par defense and a bend-don't-break offensive line.  6.5 is too little in this game in my opinion.

I mean, great, they beat Syracuse, New Hampshire and UNLV.  The only nice win I see on this schedule of fluffjobs thus far is Western Michigan.  And I say "nice" in terms of U of Minnesota football achievements over the last three years.

This is a 4-0 that is very suspect.  Vegas is not mind-fucking.  They are capping it how they see it.  Can't just place assumption on 4-0.  Just like Maniac Cop III.  Awesome title, God awful movie. 

That's why I don't judge books by their covers anymore.

I know Shortell might've played (and he looked good last week) but my book is listing "no significant injuries" for the Gophers, and that would inclue Gray. Although, I did a further search and it looks like you're right. Appears he's out. Gonna have to send an e-mail to those folks and ask them to whip flunkies who are supposed that stuff with a flystrip full of nails. :)

Well ... that would explain the line, but I still think it's worth a flyer with Shortell under center.

Iowa is just ... that ... bad.

If I was in the persuading business, I would have been balls deep inside Christina Perri (before she became famous.)  That's why I'm not going to start now.

I do know I'm on Iowa tomorrow.  And I also know one of us will win.   

UH, i dont know whats pressing these lines, must be the gays
