Still, by the time mid November rolls around we might be favored to win. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Essentially they're giving KU the edge because of home field, saying that we're evenly matched otherwise. I see no reason why we shouldn't be underdogs in that game. We're cutting in new QB and WRs, while they bring back the majority of their skill positions on offense. Like nuance said - this could very easily change by the time mid November rolls around. Right now, it's nothing to get excited about. Quote Link to comment
strigori Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 The only number that wont change week to week is the over under on wins for the season, which Vegas has NU at 8 wins. Quote Link to comment
HuskerJen Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 The only number that wont change week to week is the over under on wins for the season, which Vegas has NU at 8 wins. That's the "safe" number to expect. Personally I think Nebraska can go undefeated. Heck the Huskers almost won 10 games last year. Quote Link to comment

Regardless though, I would still take the over bet for this year. Quote Link to comment
hunkyhusker Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Love Nebraska as a pick 'em against Missouri. This is a must-win for Nebraska if it's to make a step up this season. Don't think Missouri is all that good. Quote Link to comment

Don't think Missouri is all that good. Because the sky will fall if Missouri wins? This makes no sense. If we lose to Missouri the rebuilding continues. Quote Link to comment
junior4949 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I'm actually a little surprised we aren't favored to lose by a few more than 2.5 points at this jucture. We have a brand new QB while KU has the top ranked QB in the North Division preseason. The game is in Lawrence. Quote Link to comment

And now a dancing banana cob: you are correct. 6-7 points for college. it's 2-3 for the NFL. sorry for the wrong info. Vegas is saying they have no idea right now which team is better but are giving the home team the 2.5 nod just because it's in Lawrence. I'm guessing if it where in Lincoln, the line would be 6-7 right now. Quote Link to comment

Until proven otherwise, to me these teams have nearly identical positives/negatives. It'll sort itself out during the season, and we should have a decent idea what's going to happen the week of the game. Quote Link to comment
redout22 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I think the reason Kansas is favored is because it is at Kansas. I mean it's only 2.5, it's not like it is double digets or something. Quote Link to comment
