TCU will win this one, I just hate laying double digits on bowl games.

Thoughts?

TCU had a pretty good Defense. From the games I have seen, they have improved greatly on defense. Average opps rush per carry is 2.4! I cannot see this game being close at all. TCU averaging close to 400 a game on offense. I think this game should be a blowout and Coach Patterson IMO, is a good coach who should have this team prepared!!

I really like N.ILL is this game plus the points ONLY if Horvath goes...their SR QB! He is listed as doubtful with a knee injury, so going to have to wait for updates closer to the game.....if anyone has any info on his status between now and then that would be great!! Just a small play for me though......I have other bigger bowl games I like better.

For the first bowl game of the season, i wish it were a game i have a better feel for.......northern has had there fair share of clunkers this years...tcu had a rough patch mid season, but has been solid down the strech.

I feel TCU should win, but i feel the Huskies can control the game with Wolfe and even outrush TCU, and we know that means if you're the underdog.

There are better games out there for me, but, hey, i would not be on this site if i passed on bowl games.......so my two cents.......i will be teasing NIU up to 18 and the over down to 41 and taking my chances.....i know wimpy play, but when push comes to shove next tuesday, i think that is where my money will be.....of course i am open o any and all thoughts!

GLTA!
