ZacSeljaas'Stache Intervention Needed

Probably, but after outperforming the spread against Houston by as much as we

did last week I agree why they did it. Obviously the 17 point win wasn't indicative of how close the Houston game was. That being said beating Houston by 17 and then being Favored by 20 against 1-5 Texas State (despite how close their losses have been) probably felt like easy money for BYU to cover.

Also, Texas State's secondary is a shell of its former self. I expect BYU to be able to pass and pass all game long

IMO, the 28.5 spread vs Texas St. is probably a TD too large

I agree. 3 TD seems closer to me to what it will be.

Even if that’s indicative of how much better the Cougs are, that’s a crazy spread to expect. Especially for bettors.

Especially with BYU’s history this year of laying off in the 4th

Kalani seems bent on ensuring that we’re not ruts. You’d be crazy to bet on the Cougs to cover a large spread.

I don't think that's been true, I think unlike Bronco, he tries to be sportsmanlike, but he still allows them to push

I don’t recall this history of Bronco not being classy.

that wasn't my point. Bronco went to near excess to not RUTS. To the point of ordering Anae not to pass. He wanted

That could have never been the case against Utah considering the only time since

I was almost surprised we scored that last TD vs Houston

It was a simple handoff though. Too early up ten to completely kneel on the ball

Yup, you don't just stop running. It was a run play to use clock and not lose

not exactly laying off in the 4th...

Vegas doesn’t care about the final score, only that there was equal betting.

Cbers would be disappointed with a 41-20 win

I felt that way about UTSA. I feel the opposite about Texas St.

depends on which type of game they play, do they play UTSA or late Houston? because both are relevant to Texas State

ChinaFan

It's a bit inflated as Vegas has lost too much due to BYU. 4-1 ATS.

I thought the UTSA game was going to be a lot closer than the predictions.

10/22/20 8:57am

Yet texas state was a missed xp away from beating UTSA

LiveCoug

10/22/20 8:59am

they are rivals just up the road from each others. weird things happen

10/22/20 9:06am

Texas states ball control offense plays right into BYUs hands. No defense is stopping BYU on the other side

Maybe accounts for BYU finally being able to play in front of fans at home.
