Good grief. You're idiots. It's likely TT's last game at Cincy. I'm a homer, but I'll take CU and the points ....Let's see if we can get him canned at half time.
Have you watched Cincinnati at all the last 3 weeks? They have no heart. Kiel has basically fractured the team with his attitude after being benched. No wonder he flamed out at Notre Dame.Good grief.

I stand by my post. You want to give me the points and a bet? Otherwise, stick to posting on message boards. And yes, rest assured I'll pay my debts.Have you watched Cincinnati at all the last 3 weeks? They have no heart. Kiel has basically fractured the team with his attitude after being benched.

As will I ....He's not a very good coach. Game passes him by. I don't bet on sports. I will enjoy you eating crow.
As will I ....
By 17.5?They don't even have Andy Travis or Herb Tarlek. They don't even have passable chili. And they still don't have Kenyon Martin.
Cincinnati is averaging 4.3 pts in the month of November. TU is averaging 40. I think TU easily puts up 45 and Cincinnati is lucky to hit 17. I don't bet either...I am able to follow trends and these 2 teams are on completely opposite trajectories right now...TU plays with a huge chip on their shoulder because of the perceived lack of respect within the conference and Cincinnati...well they at least show up right now.I stand by my post.

LMAO! Pretty much the greatest 6 minutes in the history of sitcom.They may not have Tarlek and Travis but I think a former Buckeye News Award winner still reports their scores for WKRP - the legend Les Nessman!
Also Tarlek and Carleson proposed a promo event for Friday nights game. It involves a Helicopter and live turkeys!
Go TU!!!
This is a different team than the one that played Fresno and SMU earlier in the season. Since those 2 games and this team gutting it out, they have played with extreme passion and precision. Very few glaring and noticeable mistakes. I'll admit I was down on them early against UCF but our coaches are THE BEST IN THE AAC at making adjustments on the fly and our players are some of the smartest in being able to implement those adjustments on the fly as well. IMO, Monty is AAC coach of the year without a doubt.I think it's a big line too. I wouldn't touch it.
No, I'm just defending the line and why it's that high. Vegas usually has a pretty good sense of what's going on by this time of the year. It's actually probably about 3-4 points too low but for the avg. bettors who likely don't know anything about either of these two teams, anything higher than what it is right now likely pushes that gambler away from this game. With minimal research (results last 5, offensive proficiency, trends) and a seasoned bettor knows that you are probably safe taking TU minus the points. Heck just looking at last week where TU struggled on offense against a pretty good defense on the road and we still pretty much covered the spread x2. Cincinnati played Memphis, not exactly a defensive juggernaut, and scored 7 points. There are a lot of factors suggesting this line is too low.Did I say we aren't?
Hopefully I'm wrong.
Solid point on the garbage time stuff. The one thing I am not sure any bettor can reconcile is mindset of a team though. Short week, Cincy just wants to be done, on the road. I think TU will push 60 points scored.Actually results still wind up on one side of about half the lines and the other side on the other half. Still works that way late in the season for Vegas. Seasoned bettors get that.
We've also got some seniors who don't get much playing time that will probably get out there later in the game for their last home contest. A 3 score margin can be challenging to maintain through a final quarter.
Honestly I don't think coaches or AP writers have a clue what the real top 25 should be outside of 'Bama #1. It would be interesting to see a Vegas pro rank the teams.And to that point, in week 12, 11 of the top 25 didn't cover as favorites. 10 did. 1 finished exactly at the spread.

I would be shocked if Kiel sees any action. He didn't play at all against Memphis and that would have been his last home game as a senior. His stats aren't awful this year and he has played really sparingly. 2 INTs in 127 attempts this year. UC used to have a bevy of really good WRs and a couple of decent RBs. Not sure if it is Tuberville's offense. I have also heard many times that Kiel has been pretty pissed off about not being handed the starting job and has been a distraction in the locker room and fractured the team quite a bit. I am actually shocked Tuberville hasn't told him to take a hike if those things are true. Seems to me Tuberville is one of those coaches where dysfunction follows. Tech was like that, the end of his Auburn days were like that. His career at UC has been remarkably like that of Bill Blankenship's at TU. Did well with players mainly recruited by the previous HC (Butch Jones now at Tennessee) and then the last 2 years when those players dried up he has struggled to meet expectations.I don't get it with G.Kiel. Last year, while resembling Ben Roethlisberger, he kind of played like him, too. Then, when the season starts, he's 3rd team! Early on, I figured 1st & 2nd team guys must be superstars. Then, the roof caves in on any one of them who starts. What's going on Bla?
If Kiel starts Friday, let's hope he doesn't revert to last year's form. TU has a tendency to make stars out of people you least expect. TU Football: 1st,last,always!

Back to Kiel, he is a kid who believed everything that was written about him and forget to play football.

I think you quoted the wrong post, but other than that, cool proposal.TUBballjunkie - I know you are married. But if not, can I please have your hand in marriage?
Totally. I'm bat at Internet.i think u quoted the wrong post, but other than that, cool proposal.
The truth speaks LOL.Told you people this line was scary.
Totally helped a drunk guy with an online bet for Cincinnati +23 in Nola after he asked about my TU shirt though.
Game opened with a TU -17.5 line. Cindy has hit rock bottom. How long does it take after the game for us to hear that Tuberville has been fired/resigned?
Dunno man. Read "Rise and Fall of Nations"Does he still get fired? They lead that entire game until the last play in OT. I didn't think Cincy looked like a wallflower team by any means tonight. I think every team in this conference is legit, except maybe Tulane... They never win.
Just about broke into a brawl tonight.IIRC, the last time Cincy visited Tulsa they nearly started a brawl, back in the 90's when both were still Indy's, 93, 94, or 95? I distinctly remember a TU player getting jumped by multiple Bearskat players near the UC sideline, and Rader's staff immediately running onto the field to keep their players from getting involved. The TU players were livid their coaches would not let them respond to the aide of a teammate. In the end, Rader's staff likely prevented a major brawl, while Minter's staff just let Ref's sort out the scuffle.
I would love to see TU crush the a-hole commuter school by 50+.
