Line on Cal game

[droski]

A guy on cal board who I have found to be very reputable says he was in Reno and Cal was a 4.5 point favorite over Tenn.

That I believe. 10 points was nuts.

Hmmm, on the road and the line is against us. I like it.

Underdogs and on the road. Cal better watch out.

I'd rather cal be a 14 point dog. Part of me was hoping the vols would come in thinking they could just show up and win because of last year. Being the underdog could be a motivator.

 

[hvwarrior58]

Umm, you haven't heard Jon Hefney apparently. The team definitely doesn't have this chalked up as a win and are going into it with the same attitude as last year. Same ole disrespect for us and hype for Cal.

Better get it before it crosses the 4

Better get it before it crosses the 4

I think it drops too. Every SEC fan who walks through vegas or reno will bet on the vols.

 

[hvwarrior58]

Every level headed fan period would take that.

the line wouldn't be 4.5 if that was true.

 

[hvwarrior58]

It won't be at 4.5 for too long.

 

[droski]

It won't be at 4.5 for too long.

of course most sportsbetters probably aren't level headed.

 

[hvwarrior58]

True

I'd say the average sports better is a fool, and probably doesn't have a logical or objective take on any game. That being said, all those folks would probably split on a match up like this. This is a tough game to call.

I'd say the average sports better is a fool . . .

:good!:

Fall pratice is here could someone gitting hurt be a big factor? or let's say our recievers come of age during fall pratice the line could take a wide swing in the next 30 days.

 

[hvwarrior58]

One really good thing coming in to fall practice is that, aside from Karl, we are pretty much completely healthy. There is a shot that Karl will be able to go, as well. Knock on wood of course. This is very different than in past years where we went into fall practice beat up.
