this line seems way off to me. first of all this will be the first time i will bet on my aggies this year because i dont like betting on my team. vegas has not adjusted the lines on A&M all year and A&M has surprised a lot of people. isu has lost 14 straight conference road games. A&M is playinbg great ball this year at home already beating good teams like tennessee, mizzou, and tex. tech. the only 2 home games the aggies have lost are against okie st. and texas. they were actually leading both of those games at the half too. the best 2 players by far in this game will be playing for A&M. last week the aggies played mizzou at home and the aggies were getting 3 points. now they are playing isu at home and are only laying 2? this makes no sense to me and i cant find a reason why the aggies wont win this game. isu is flat out terrible on the road, A&M is a very good home team, and A&M has much more talent. if i am missing something then somebody please let me know what it is, because maybe im just being a homer. i hope dr. freeze feels the same about this game as me.

Your analysis is sound and seems like a very good play. I came to the same conclusion and so did Freeze. Good luck!:D

yeah, this line is kinda like the houston/so miss line last night, my only winner out of four plays. and as you pointed out, i'll probably put a little on a&m in the first half also. g/l.

I 'm with you too. The line is too thin, but reminds me of everyone on Bama last night...what are we missing?

Is Jackson Vroman gonna bust out tonight??? Iowa State blows on the road.

Ags are the side, and I'm a Longhorn, so no homer here.

thats a godpoint loophole i think ill put a little on the first half too because we always seem to play good in the first half. im almost positive the ags have had the lead at half of every home game this year.

doug e. the difference with this game and last nights game with bama is that georgia is actually a good road team(i was on bama too though). isu blows on the road.

Totally agree. Saw this line this morning and stood out more than any other. GL to us.

i was kind of leaning toward Iowa St on this game. Home turf could make a difference though, but im staying away from it. Its kind of like that bama game your right about that. To me, the aggies just don't have the depth as of iowa st. good luck on your picks guys

Current UT student here..respect Bernard King, but nothing else about the Ags.

I just can't get myself to betting this. Seems everyone and their mom is on it, and the line has dropped from +4 and is going nowhere from +2.5. Seems too good to be true...I will wait till the 2H to make a decision.

txag ... my point was not that the games are comparable but that most everyone was on Bama last night ... and alas, most everyone was wrong...

I have yet to see one person on Iowa St, and being bored at work today, I have read almost the whole board...

That is the scary part...

yeah jaycadd i just called my local becasue i was curious to see what he had the line at. of course everyone here is on A&M and he moved the line up to 5(good thing i have an offshore). he said hes taken 17 bets on the ags and 2 on isu. thats to be expected though here in college station. he also said hes betting on the ags to cover himself which he hardly ever does, and he thinks they win big tonight.

Just got in,hadn't even seen a line today. Thinking a&m would be
minus 6.5/8.5 being at home and knowing they can play. Now see this and just can't figure :shrug: Was gonna play em at -6/6.5, now, after tha bangin I took last night. Think I'll just wish ya luck.:Yep:
