UTEP+8 and counting up.

 

I agree,,,and Now the line is going down:

Tulsa is 4/1 ATS 3/1 on the road .The only one they didn't cover was Oklahoma  Their QB is 12/2 for tds/ints.Their average score is 27 to 19 on the road.

UTEP is 1/2 ATS at home .Their QB is 5/7 for tds/ints.Their average score is 27 to 32 at home.

 GLTA ,but i'm on Tulsa - 6 1/2

4 of those picks were against Texas and one was against Kansas. Both ranked teams.

Just took the home dog here, I really think they will show up to play here. At the start of the season, they were one of the favorites to compete for the C-USA title. They have played a tough schedule so far, but that win against Houston showed me that they could win big conference games at HOME. They have had 2 weeks to prepare for this game and I think that they will cash in. Tulsa has so many problems protecting the QB and that O-line will struggle here again. GLTA

UTEP+7.5 (2 units)

Agreed, but we already have 3 vets here start busting on each other over the 1st post of the thread.

Please keep it civil guys. Can we just get along?. Post your pick, why and move on.

I believe Tulsa wins here.  They are a much better team.  Although they lost Johnson at QB, they got a quarterback who was an all american in high school.  He went to Texas and transfer to Tulsa cause Colt is there.  Damaris Johnson is a beast.  UTEP has has 1 lucky game against Houston.  Tulsa lost to Oklahoma and Boise by 7.  Tulsa SHOULD in this one. 

In other words, take UTEP.  I am an idiot that took Houston in that game and Boise against Tulsa.  If any of you want to win, let me know.  I will give you my picks and you go opposite.

I like UTEP here... I'm not really sure why, but I think they cover. I'm going to wait and see what the line does and do a little more research before I pull the trigger.

Prelimary thoughts are... Nice weather, two teams that have the "ability" to score, a home dog +8, nationally televised, under the lights, but ultimately two teams going nowhere fast...

Early lean... TEASER   UTEP +14 & OV (Obviously depending on the #)

Tulsa may come with the some firepower on this one seeing as how they almost beat Boise(a good offensive team).They did keep them to 4 touchdowns which isn't very easy to do when Boise was playing for style points on national t.v. but to each his own.

Tulsa + over

Leaning towards Tulsa, though I do see this as a potential trap...

No Posted total that I can find yet, but anything less than 55-58, I'm taking the Over.... ( that maybe wishful thinking also)

After the Boise St contest, I think the Tulsa Offense feel that they have something to prove with the whole Nation watching again.

Tulsa should win by 2 TDs...

But that's why they line them up & we spend time posting...

All the best to all who play the game of chance.

PS: Loser on my Auburn call to beat KY by 21. Wed night will be the night to right the ship with Tulsa over U TakEm Points

MrMannix and Irisheyez I always check your posts for input.MrM. I know you had some clue as what the line would open at. I have few posts but check the forums for every game I am intrested in betting on. the ov/un is tough in this game as Tulsa has been under I think all season and UTEP has been mostly under. ESPN national coverage can fire up both teams. I don't know if it will fire up the offence or defence. Going to wait to last minute for decision on this game.

Tulsa is pissed after they had the opportunity to take down a top 5 BCS team, and blew it, they come out fired up, and win by DD easily.  Taking tulsa minus the points, GL all
