What team shows up vs CSU? Line is 7 point favs right now

[djm19]

If the Nebraska team shows up vs CSU, we roll. If any other team shows up, we will lose. How can we gauge how good this team really is given this point of the year? I am lost on what to believe any more.

Win/Loss

Nebraska 5 1
Idaho 1 6
UNC 1 6
Air Force 1 6
Texas State 3 3
New Mexico 2 4

Total combined opponents record.... 13-26.

Sidenote: We are one td favorite

I kind of like the spread. The last few games UW has been huge favorites and failed to cover.....I'd rather be underestimated than over-hyped.

Colorado St. seems like they have a losing gene. They are somewhat better this year, but they always find a way to shoot themselves in the foot. I've been wrong a few times this season, but I think the Pokes will win and cover comfortably.

I think if the team that played AFA, or Idaho shows up, the Pokes kill them.
Let's not sell ourselves short. With the exception of the shit game @Tx.State, the Pokes typically overwhelm their lesser opponents.
I still really believe if there was no 3.5 hour delay, the Pokes beat Texas State.

Not pumpin Sunshine, but I completely agree. We started movin with ease just before they called the delay. We were even running to the ball and wrapping up before. After, we were extremely stagnant and played slow and stiff. That and Wick never showed up at all. I think he was pulled not only for his fumble, but also for lack of energy when he'd get a carry. I thought we should've given it to Miller several more times. He was playing tough all game long.

I imagine the Pokes will roll the Sheep by more than 7, but the spread is good where it is.

I agree...the only thing the Pokes can do is to continue to win....even if that pisses people off. :roll:

Go Pokes!!

Rivalry games can almost ALWAYS go in either direction, that's what makes them rivalry games. After watching what Texas did to Sooners, I'm all too aware that CSU could step up to the plate as well.


That said, I want us to humiliate them worse than what we did to Air Force. No putting in the number 2s until we're up by 50+.

Local line is still 7....I think the Pokes have no trouble covering this one. CSU has improved, but not enough to hang with the Cowboys high octane offense. If the Cowboys come out fired up and play that way for 4 quarters, this one could get really ugly for the sheep (man I hope so). The Boot should stay in Laramie for another year.
