Why  think Boist St wil cover?

1.-  Of the games they have left, this is the most important, Boise State Looking At BCS Championship Game, Not Just BCS

2.- Their best defensive back is back in the lineup: "

Boise State hopes the expected return of cornerback Kyle Wilson, the team's defensive leader and top punt returner, can give the Broncos a boost.

Wilson, a senior and starter the last 3 1/2 years, was out against UC Davis because of a strained shoulder and his presence was missed as the defense allowed season highs of 206 yards through the air and two passing touchdowns. With Wilson in the lineup the first four games, the Broncos yielded an average of 163.3 passing yards with two touchdowns and nine interceptions."

3.- Better talent, best team, with 11 days of preparation for the most important game of the season. Oh they know tgey didn't exactly impressed no one with their performance against UC-Davis...

Good luck

i cant tell you who is going to win or how many points they will score........but I can tell you it will be around 55 deg. 30% chance of rain (maybe drizzle or light shower) and Tulsa plays outdoor and on turf. Looks to me like the weather will not be much of a factor if any.
 
Oh and another thing.......dont worry about the home crowd because there wont be much of one.
 
If both teams play like they are supposed to the bet is Boise -8.5 and over 52

I will be checking back closer to gametime when I find out which Boise players didn't board the flight.

Thanks for the info....please keep us posted

Boise motivation won't be an issue.....If they just cover unimpressively, they drop in the poles and jeopardize their end of year BCS opportunity.....
 
Plus, what we now know is an only average Okla D shut out Tulsa....
 
Boise by 21.........Hoping Tulsa scores enough for the OVER......

I got Boise St -9.5 and feel great about it.  I won 2 units last night and feel pretty confident it will be another 2 units tonight.
 
Boise needs an impressive win tonight to justify their ranking.

Boise should play like they are trying to prove something, though they won't make it to the National Championship game.

Either way Boise covers easy and turns this game into a one sided affair.

Don't know about the over/Under though. Rain is a low percentage, but a little rain can screw everything up.

BOL

When boise plays a bcs team on the blue turf once a year its like their nat champ gm. For tulsa this is their bcs oppenent in their backyard on espn hence their nat champ gm. In Fresno the bulldogs ran wild. we all remember the oregon game but that oregon squad is not the same team that is rolling the pac 10. Tulsa keeps it close maybe wins outright....Lip
Line moving to 10.....was pushing 8. Moneyline is +310. Tulsa will have a shot in this game... boise has their hands more full than many think.

The under is starting to look really good right now.
 
My book has it at 55. One more half or whole point and I am all over this UNDER!

Something to think about
1.  Boise is 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) in road games after a win by 17 or more points over the last 2 seasons.
 
2.  Boise is 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) in road games after allowing 125 or less rushing yards in 2 straight games over the last three seasons.
 
3.  The Broncos are 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) after a game where they committed 1 or less turnovers over the last 2 seasons.
 
4.  The Broncos are 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) in road games after 3 consecutive game where they committed 1 or less turnovers since 1992.
 
5.  Boise is 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) in road games over the last 2 seasons.
 
BOL to you all

I got to take Tulsa.  Line movement makes no sense... remember the UCONN game a few weeks ago?  Same thing... Tulsa covers the 9.5.

I agree that Boise needs to look impressive. Going to wait closer to game time on this one.

Just a side note...

I definitely think TULSA is OVERRATED...if you look at their schedule, Tulsa's oppenents, other than Oklahoma, have a combined record of 2-15 (Sam Houston State not included because they aren't even a real Div 1 school) and Oklahoma was their only real competition and they got shut out 45-0 in that game!!

1. Tulane (2-3)
2. New Mexico (0-6)
3. Oklahoma (3-2) / Sooners shut out Tulsa
4. Sam Houston State (who cares)
5. Rice (0-6)

If Boise State plays "good" football they should win by 2 TD's and if they play "great" football...they should put a whoopin on them...

jus my thoughts...GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!

BOIST ST -9.5

I just don't know guys.  Just the public opinion alone puts me thinking Tulsa.  However, I have seen games like this before... public heavy one way, line movement one way, etc. - then the favorite beats the shit out of the dog.  This could be another one of those.

Leaning Tulsa, my book has it at +10.5...
