Texas A&M Line and others

College football lines just opened in Las Vegas.

Texas A&M favored 14 over SMU.

Other interesting lines...

TCU -9 @ Baylor
Houston -4 vs. UCLA
Oklahoma -23 vs Tulsa
Boise State -2.5 @ Georgia
LSU -3 vs. Oregon

Thoughts?

If we stay within 14 points of aTm I believe that would be a moral victory. And yes, I am still taking moral victories a this point. A win would be fantastic.

I'll be on SMU, but only because we tend to cover as dogs. This game still scares me. We are going to have to be hitting on all cylinders and take advantage of Aggie miscues.

I tend to favor Baylor on this one, but I'm not sure if they have really closed the gap that much with TCU, even given all the turnover that occurred there. I'm going to stay away from this one.

I'll be on UCLA, OU and LSU. Might load up on OU actually.

I tend to stay away from BSU. Never been able to make money off them over the course of a season. If I had to pick, I'd go with BSU, though I'm not sure why.

Good point. Even more reason to stay away from this one.

I would be inclined to agree that beating the spread would be a good start to the season, but I think that our kids should take the field believing themselves good enough to win. And winning would be awesome.

I believe they will. But actually doing it is another thing. If they do, it would be something special for sure. But I believe they will have the right attitude going into the game. It's always 0-0 at kickoff. :mrgreen:

OU will cover, wouldn't take any of the other bets
