Wisconsin is a -34 1/2 favorite over Mew Mexico
Minnesota is a -3 fav over Fresno St
 
Don’t they know we haven’t played a game yet and Colorado beat CSU badly? How can we be favored?
 
The biggest disparity going into the game which everyone knows is Montez is a 2 year starter and 2AM hasn’t taken a snap in a college football game yet...

That to me is the biggest let down of not playing last night or today for that matter..

Even a series or two would have helped AM immensely...and it would have made me happy too.

For starters, it tells you how bad CSU is. I think Nebraska and CU is a good matchup, but not based on what happened in the CU-CSU game. Rams are dreadfully bad, especially on defense.

Is CSU terrible or have they played surprisingly good opponents? Hawaii hung 60 on navy last night.

I think the bigger play should be on the under 62 1/2
I tend to respect your analysis on games, but I can't figure out the logic behind an under play here. Nebraska will be anxious to show off their offensive prowess, Colorado is coming off a game in which they scored 45 points in the first three quarters and Nebraska's defense, granted under a different coaching staff, was porous last year.

I think both teams are capable of scoring 4 to 5 TD’s

31-28 or 34-28 or 34-31 type of game..

Just a feeling. I think Colorado’s offense isn’t as good as it looked last week and I think Nebraska’s offense will struggle early. I am looking for a 28-17 type game. But even a 31-30 or 31-28 game is under 62 1/2

62.5 needs 9 TDS/PATs total by both teams to hit the over.

I agree with you, although I just have a feeling our D is going to be out to prove something. I think they want to show they aren't as bad as they looked last year. CU will get some points, but I am thinking it won't be as much as people think.
 
The O/U has jumped from 62 1/2 to 66 1/2..

Looks like more people think it’s going to be a high scoring game..
