Like TCU -9.5.....LA Tech is talented thats for sure, but I don't think you should buy into this line movement for this particular game. I think it can go up,down,up,down throughout the day. I don't believe TCU is not motivated to be there or mad that there not in a BCS. OF COURSE THEY ARE, WHAT TEAM WOULDN'T BE....but you have a young QB that is still making a name for himself.....people over think these things a little too much sometimes...
I have to disagree, I dont see how TCU will be motivated tonight, and grab arizona state tomorrow night while its still 14

The WAC is just god awful this year since Boise left. The only decent team LA Tech played is Houston and their D is atrocious. Well they played S Miss too, but they are still C-USA.
I think TCU stomps them, as long as they come out motivated.

line moved down last night lets just say it was not the recreational gambler who moved the line. Line moved back up today because of the public.

WAC versus Mt. West. Hawaii beat La.T. at La.T. TCU beat Boise St. give me a break. 11 or 10 points are a lot but TCU is the better team,, may not be the better bet but the tam here. can see them winning but not covering but still would be on the Frogs.

TCU is highly motivated in this game. It's not about winning The Poinsettia Bowl but rather starting next year with the highest ranking possible heading into their debut season in the Big 12.Even though TCU will be in a BCS conference,Gary Patterson knows that having a high preseason ranking is vital to a national championship run. He has stated such and believe me the 'Frogs will be motivated.
TCU is entering their seventh straight Bowl game and their thirteenth in the last fourteen years under Patterson plus a case could easily be made that TCU has the advantage on both sides of the ball,special teams,and coaching.Not to mention that there has to be a certain degree of distraction as it is strongly been rumored that Sonny Dykes will be returning to his home state of Texas as the next coach at The University of Houston.

I was a little full of myself for having been 4-0 on the bowls picking the sides right and going Over on the SDst/ULaf and I really thought FIU would play inspired football playing in their own backyard. Wow, was I wrong. Seriously, they should not have been a 4 pt fav anyway. That game was ugly to watch. Terrible offense. Really awful play calling with pass after pass thrown to the line of scrimmage. Seriously, 1 yard passes? Horrible punting game for FIU. I was very grateful for at least seeing the writing on the wall and jumping on Mar +3 for the 2H to erase my FIU -4 loser, but it didn't make me enjoy the game any more, that's for sure.
Now I realize that the dogs are 3-1ATS and isn't that how Bowls tend to go year after year early on? Is it the long layoff? Teams out of sync? Dogs more to prove? Early bowl games featuring the not-so-great teams so parity is a real factor? Comments, anyone?
I initially like TCU but now I'm thinking I should just close my eyes and go with the dog. Two good defenses, that should favor the dog if there's not a lot of scoring. Both teams only give up about 20 pts a game. It's a down year for TCU, I recall they even struggled against Wyo and BYU. It's an up year for LT. I'm thinking I should take TCU and Under or tease them if I do anything at all. Watching that game last night was like biting into a sour, rotten apple....left a bad taste in my mouth. What a crap-fest game.... Yech.

Take the Ruston Louisiana boys and the points. Co-OC Justin Fuente received the HC job @ Memphis, and plus TCU thinks they deserve a better bowl than the Poinsettia (see team page). There will be enough scoring mustered by Colby Cameron to beat the Frogs in a potent offensive battle.
Final: TCU 28, LT 31

Everywhere I look, everyone I ask says TCU wins without a doubt, this usually turns into bloodbath.
It appears to me that the line movement has strongly swayed the majority on here and that about 75% of the board is on the Bulldogs.This seems a likely scenario for a La.Tech bloodbath.
