runningblind Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 We're not playing Minnesota anymore huh? Everyone is so concerned about Colorado. I show MN at -7.5 this morning. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 So .... Two likely losses (>+10): Michigan and Wisconsin One probable loss (+4-+7): Minnesota Five basically coin flips (+/- 3-ish): Illinois, Purdue, Michigan State, Maryland, Iowa One probable win (-4- -7): Colorado Three likely wins (<-10): N Ill, La Tech, Northwestern That would be 4-3 with five coin flip games, meaning 6-6 or 7-5 would be most likely. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted August 24, 2023 Author Share Posted August 24, 2023 There is nothing right now that I really like. Anyone see a line that makes them think "Wow, easy money"? 1 Quote Link to comment

What will be interesting is if we beat Minnesota and look competent in doing so....how much do these lines move? 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Sometimes just a little bit. My guess...NU will be favored by the time Iowa comes to town...I could see a 6 point swing. I think Michigan goes up, probably closer to 20 3 1 Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I think the Iowa game is the best grab right now, with Nebraska to win. Feel like Michigan State & Maryland are both games where there's no good way to know what kind teams they actually are currently. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Red Five Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I'll take the +7.5 vs MN. Getting the hook is big. It was down to +7 (and I think I saw +6.5) a couple weeks ago. Quote Link to comment

I really like NU+7.5 at Minny and NU+3 vs Iowa. That extra half point vs Minny is big and I can’t imagine the Iowa line increases any. If it flops to NU being favored at least you could have a good tweener. MGM finally has teasers I might get in trouble this season. 1 Quote Link to comment
admo Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Northwestern @ Nebraska -17½ (-115) I won't bet the House on it. But I will bet the Tool Shed that I converted into a Workshop, with all the tools, the fans, the surround sound speakers, the recliner with 2 folding chairs, a card table for dominos and cards and pizza... plus the Ramones/Black Flag/RHCP/Tupac/Bob Marley/Beastie Boys stickers inside to say "go away - this is MY place". I know against NW it normally turns into some close funky games with them. It is what it is. But this year, I will lay the points. Why? Do you remember the game we had in Lincoln and put up a 50 burger on them??? That's my confidence and what it feels like. NW is a mess. Oh, and take Nebraska to win outright against Iowa. We spanked them last year, and the year before we had them looking like a$$ with Smothers at QB. Smothers. What??? No 2AM??? Nah man, we are just going to plug Smothers into the offense this week and be like, whatever. And we should have sealed the deal. So yeah, those two are obvious games that stick out and I will put my money where my mouth is Quote Link to comment
Decoy73 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Turnover margin is the key factor. If we’re positive, we win 8 minimum. If we’re negative again, we win 5 at most. That being said, I’d bet us covering against Michigan and Iowa. Also, northwestern covering, but losing to us. 2 Quote Link to comment
