What do you see here? I was shocked to see the Herd laying 13 1/2 points on the road.

Sounds like another great bet to take with the home schools.

I'm thinking the Herd will be fortunate to come home with a win. This could potentially be a game that's played again on December 18th for the conference title. I think the Herd should win the East, but West likely coming down to La Tech and UAB.

I tend to agree....that line went to 14 flat but has drifted back down. I kind of like Tech at home getting that much help! They did not look good in Provo and that somewhat scares me so I probably will not take a position on the game but if you put a gun to my head I'd take Terry Bradshaw's alma mater. Seems like everything has gone right for us as well, the ball don't always bounce your way and we're due for a bad bounce.

La Tech has their big OL tackles back this week, and they have really good athletes in the skill positions. Probably comes down to a couple of things. One, have to get pressure on the La Tech QB, and two, the Herd QB has to continue to play well, and limit the mistakes, which so far, he's done an admirable job as a FS Freshman. Hopefully that big Herd offensive line can dominate, and the Herd running game can control the game.

I think we'll win the game...but the winning the bets as you know is a different gig when you're laying that many points on the road!
