OK, who is taking Colorado over Nebraska in week 2??

[tnapucco]

Well fuck

It's not officially official unless he puts you guise in his favorite teams...that's the only time the curse can effectively triangulate its juju to bend all of the leptons, gluons, quarks and bosons that tie the holographic 'branes together resulting in a solid "fuck you over REAL good" spatial disruption.

Well DON’T TELL HU!!!!!!!

I did in my Pickems.

Sorry Nebraska




How wrong am I???

Nebraska. No question.

one confidence point.

 

[Tomhusker]

Nebraska is gonna skull fuck Colorado.

 

[Tin Man]

So the commanding officer said to the assembled pick 'em Hooplans, "I need somebody on point, somebody to pick Colorado and take the first bullet. I know, you gotta be outofyourmind to do it."

Keep an eye on that -3.5.

It's not uncommon for sharps to make a lot of small wagers to get the spread where they're more comfortable dropping big bucks.

If that -3.5 quickly goes back up to -4, -4.5. or even -5 between today and Friday, then the sharps are comfortable with where they got it and pounced.

If it continues on the down trend to -3, -2.5, etc, then sharps aren't on it.

My guy has 4 right now. I’m waiting for it to go to 3.5, buy it down a point to 2.5 and pounce. Hope it does

 

[TP76]

Not confident at all after seeing CSU march up and down the field at will last weekend.

It'll be a game, but I'd take Nebraska giving up 4. Probably. I wouldn't bet your house on it. If Shenault is healthy, he might be the only WR in the country that you can compare with Jeudy and think "Y'know, I might take him first". Dude was AMAZING before he got hurt. As good or better than N'Keal Harry last year.

Plus I'm not so sure I think Adrian Martinez is really that good, even if he changed his name from Taylor and got another whole set of eligibility.

Nebraska is gonna skull fuck Colorado.

Before or after the game???

I've been back and forth on this one since the spread dropped to Nebraska -3.5.

It opened Nebraska -7.5, was quickly bet down to Nebraska -5, and has now been bet down to Nebraska -3.5.

I'd have certainly taken CU at the -7.5 and even the -5.

I will take CU in pickem's for 1 point, just for the win/win jinx factor, but the harder I look at it (involving real $$) I am pondering taking the Huskers at -3.5 at the casino. I will wait until Friday to make that decision in hopes of getting an even -3. I will surely take the Huskers if it gets to -2.5 or lower.

My rationale is the harder I look at CU, I'm seeing them being a one trick pony (a la Rondale Moore and Purdue), but with Laviska Shenault.

Rondale went off on Ohio St for 170 yds and 2 TD's.
Since then Purdue is (2-5) overall with an opening loss to a G5. Rondale doesn't catch anyone by surprise anymore. Take him out of the game and Purdue is back to being Purdon't.

Since Shenault went off on Colorado St (211 yds), Nebraska (177 yds), UCLA (126 yds), and Arizona St (127 yds) to start last season, CU is 1-7.

Game plan to keep players like Moore and Shenault from having big games and Purdue/Colorado become well below average teams.

Colorado is going to have to run the ball to win this game. Their rushing offense was 99th last season.

Colorado had a good rushing output last week (243 yds) in their (52-31) win, but Colorado St's rushing defense was 113th last season. Shenault had 3 catches for just 48 yds/1 TD.

I don't think Nebraska should be favored in this game. That they are and the general consensus that CU not only covers but wins outright, pushes me even further towards taking the Huskers. The money-line has obviously been CU (-7.5 >> -3.5), and Vegas wasn't built on winners.
.

Just take the over RA. That is way too low even at 65. I figured it'd be low to mid 70s

 

[LionsWhyMe]

I got stock in Nebraska all the way through week 5.

 

[wazzu31]

They did just lose to Colorado...last year.

Ya, but that was before their program got burned to the ground with their loss to FCS school Oregon State.

 

[Angry red]

Might be a week to pick against them. Who knows it's a toss up but one team has home field advantage or does it?

Bringing my Danzig gloves.

Shenault and Fountenough are French names. The fuckers just want to give up.

You have one job. Beat the whorns.

 

[Innermind]

It's hard to say after just one week.

Hell... look at Illinois... the Illini looked great in their 42-3 victory over Akron... then again, Lovie Smith has taken on double duty as the new defensive coordinator, and the Illini defense looked darn good vs Akron (Akron only had 64 yards rushing and 102 yards passing).

Colorado getting 4 points at home is tempting, but I gotta go with the Cornhuskers.

Ever heard of Texas and Maryland?



Damn, Samurai beat me to that one!

Hot take - Frost is overrated. CU by 13
