A serious question about TCU/Iowa St.

[Tomorrows Paper]

I placed one of my largest bets on Iowa St. +4.5 quite a while ago, as my actual line was Iowa St. -6, and I expected the line to open at pk or Iowa St. -1. I immediately jumped on the Cyclones, knowing the line would come tumbling down. Now I see that many of you are on TCU, and I was just wondering if anyone had some sort of explanation as to why they like TCU so much. I would like to have a middle over two relatively critical numbers if someone can explain a little.

keep the Cyclone pick. it's very solid. big play for me on Cyclones too. you've got great value as it's Cyclones +1.5 now. tcu will flop like a toad today. good luck.

be careful, the bruin line was the same---its just public money on tcu

[therealdeal]

so many ppl pickin so many diff teams i'm lost but not wastin so much money on bowl games is key i think

UCLA line jumped to 4 yesterday as the closing line. Iowa st is the pick here. Seneca Wallace will run wild. GL.

[DAREALDEAL]

seneca wallace huh? ucla line was 2

[KPBS Arthur]

UCLA -2 / -3 in majority of places but i saw one with UCLA -4 closing line.

Seneca Wallace is long gone! You Iowa State players are going to lose your ass. EVERY SERVICE IN NORTH AMERICA is on Iowa State. There are at least 5 Game of Years on them!

GL and Go Toads!!

I played ISU at +4 as well.

These teams are about as evenly matched as can be. I like the points. This is not that much of a home game for TCU as all think.

ISU travels well and has a solid D and running game. I would keep your bet. If you wanted to hedge, put a little on TCU -1 or so, but not higher than that!

[KPBS Arthur]

Just because they are GOYs doesn't mean everyone in Northern America will play it. Go Cyclones!!

If you sound so sure and you like it so much, why don't you wager larger bet on it? Toads will drown tonight!!

The public is all over ISU, I just took TCU +2. While I think ISU is the better team, my thought is that they won't bounce back from the devastating loss at the end of the year. I don't think they will be up for this game, much like Georgia Tech. Better team but never got on the plane.

WOW>..14-0...I have been on the losing side of just about all the early leads so this bodes well for all the ISU backers.
