View Full Version : I know it’s too early for the OU/TT line…

...but, I'm wondering what it's going to be. I hardly ever bet OU because my heart tends to cloud my perspective on things. The way I see it, OU is tough to beat at home; it is something only two teams (not Tech) have accomplished with Stoops as HC at OU. However, cancelling out that factor may be an OU defense that has given up a lot of points to teams not of Tech's level...plus, the nation seems to be high on Tech, which may give them a few points on the betting spread.

I'd most definately bet OU if Tech is favored, simply because I think OU will come out fired up and ready to play. However, if OU is favored by more than three, I think I'll leave that one alone.

If you're a sports handicapper, what's your take on the game? Who is most likely to be favored when the spread comes out? I'm just curious what others think.

Thanks.

See football board:

(hint: OU is a 9 point favorite when the line opened this morning)

Haven't seen the Tech line.
We're 17.5 favorites over Buffs

Why would the line open up Monday the 10th when the game is next week? I think you're referring to last year's spread, which was OU -8.5/9. I don't foresee anyone being favored by more than 3 in this one.

Well articulated.
