A&M only favored by 3 points this week

[WhiteMamba]

Vegas Insider still has it open at minus 3...

Time to make a bet eh?

I expect that line to move a little bit before we post it in the bookie forum later in the week.

Taking a 2nd mortgage out on my house and driving to Vegas...lol.
A&M made some changes last week that seemed to help shore up their defense a little.

Guessing it was SMU not running the ball. Nice to play a one dimensional team that refuses to scout its opponent

There are no current lines on this game that I can find.

Apparently it opened SOMEWHERE at A&M -3...but looks like it was summarily pulled and nobody is touching it.

SMU did try but since their run is connected to the pass they really couldn't get their drives going due to A&M being in anickel package.

Was that second sentence about the A&M-SMU game or the BYU-Texas game...

Personal foul. 15 yard penalty.

I might be making an emergency trip to Vegas for a personal issue.

if a book is offering -3 it is not now. Some of them said A&M +3 if you check the ESPN site.

I check docsports, they have a paper book available in most Las Vegas Sportsbooks, so I trust them over the funny online companies.

I agree with someone else, if the line is -3 or something, the fix is in. Manziel has already shown that he accepts money from the autograph dealers, shows disdain for the NCAA, and tweeted he couldn't wait to get away from Texas A&M. Something funny might be going on here.

I'd be crawling all over the history between those 2 teams if there is any.

If there's actually different books with a -3 line and a -13 line, you might as well bet both sides and go for the middle. I'm extremely skeptical that a -3 actually exists and isn't just a website error.

Lot of history between the two teams teams dating back to the old Southwest Conference days.

They run as a constraint play to their pass. That is my pt. SMU opened with 7 straight passing plays. By the end of the 1Q SMU ran 22 plays. Only had 6 rushes, but they went for 43 yds.

Samford is a small Baptist University in Birmingham, AL they play in the Southern Conference and Pat Sullivan is the coach. Long story short they had no business EVER being behind them.

Samford is where folks used to park to go see Bama games at Legion Field. Was unaware they even had a football team, but apparently they first fielded one in 1902.

Um that is Birmingham Southern College not Samford.
