The Spread?

What's the early spread for the game?

Was just at the casino (Reno, NV) at lunch today and it's NU by 9.5 pts.

I get nervous with spreads like that. Not that I don't think we can win by 9.5pts, but a point spread like that against a proud program like Texas gives them all the motivation they need. Having said that, I'll give my prediction..........

Huskers 28

Texas 17

[epocSoN]

35-10

[HuskerT]

35-10

The spread is starting out at 10 points. I doubt we'll see much tejas money coming in this wek to lower it.

[Husker Z]

Normally a team like NU would start out giving 10, just because of the homefield advantage. So, in my mind, Vegas thinks this is going to be a hell of a football game.

10-pt spread sounds about right to me. Honestly I'm surprised it's not more considering Texas is the butt of jokes and we're the punchline.

To my knowledge homefield advantage is only worth 3-4 pts.

I would guess that number could fluctuate a bit, depending on the actual field. A line of 9.5 seems similar to last week's game where Vegas was begging people to bet on KSU, predicting us hammering them, this week seems reversed, seems like they want money to fall to NU, because they think the opposite could happen.

 

 

I don't care how or how much we win by, I just want a win, I can't stomach another kick in the nuts by a Whorne, ugh!!
