Yep. I had the same reaction to seeing this line as I did to seeing Utah -10 against us.

The only thing that concerns me TDAWG is that Stanford's blitz package is very effective and your oline is suspect.

I worry about Price's knees in that game. That kid is playing with two bum knees.

The owner of BeyondTheBets.com has Wash +20 as his lead pipe lock this weekend... FWIW, pretty savvy statistical analyst.

LOL - So you'll be on 5dimes soon as well? On the bright side you'll get early lines now.

His knees are fine now, but his ankle was sore this past week. He looked better on Saturday against Colorado.

Last year was bad. I think someone calculated what the average time Locker had to throw was and it was 1.4 seconds. Our blocking has been much better this year. It helps that we can play with a TE now. Shayne Skov being out hurts the Cardinal on defense a lot IMO. WSU had plenty of chances to move the ball on them, but their WR's had a ton of drops.

Since its the betting thread I will post this here too. I dont know if any of yall got on Preseason win totals but here are the only two that are for certain going into week 8


K-state has covered their preseason win total already (5.5)

Florida St. is mathematically eliminated from covering their preseason win total (10)


Just figured someone here would find this interesting if nothing else

I'm very cautious when it comes to that game. We have very little to judge Stanford by. If I were to bet one way I would go Washington, but I would be very hesitant.

I think there is some homer in those responses but point taken. Price is clearly gimpy and those knees have something to do with it, imho. The oline is better than last year's but still suspect.

Why oh why he'd build that house a quarter mile from I35 (and completely visible at that) I'll never know. So much for privacy.

Landry Jones' parents live over there too. Really cool family.

Very nice area. It's about 15 minutes northwest of me.

Nah . I'm not calling it a lock like I did against Utah, but I think our offense is too good right now to be outscored by 21. Btw, I heard a theory on the radio this morning that since Vegas has been getting killed by the big teams constantly covering the spread (87% of the time), they are raising the spreads to get more people to bet the underdog now.

I don't think that is a theory...pretty sure that is definitely what they are doing on some of the games. LSU -22.5? Bama -28.5? OU -29? I think all of those are high...wouldn't ever consider them
