Are we on Upset watch?
- Thread starter 220reb
- Start date
Hmmmm, we better come to play, CSU is not to be overlooked, we need that 6th win!
Upset alert? We started at the bottom and now were here, lol
I don't think anyone is overlooking CSU.
The talent gap between UNLV and CSU is minimal.
WE are -8 Favorites
I would expect that # to get lower.......... maybe -5 by Game time - NOT because of the the graphic
Because this is kind of a big game for UNLV
(sports wagers) People will look at history - and think - "for what ever fricking reason UNLV always seems to shoot themselves in the foot" when it comes to games like this
People might think "I'm going to go with tradition and take CSU and the -8 points"
Lets see

I don't think UNLV football has been on anyone's list for "upset" alert since JRob. We probably haven't even been a favorite in more than 1-2 games per season, if that.
To be honest those people would probably be right to do so...
8 seems like too many points.
I'm not worried about shooting ourselves in the foot. But CSU is better than who we have played recently. And their offense strength is our defensive weakness.
I can see us win by double digits, but I think it will be a one score game.
It is an interesting thought since we are undefeated ATS that odds makers have underestimated UNLV every week this season. Does that trend continue or is this the week we get too much credit?

The line is currently at 7.5/8 but opened at 3.5. https://www.vegasinsider.com/college-football/matchups/colorado-state-vs-unlv/
If you look at the attachment, you will see the line went over 9 before coming back down.
Not yet. I’ll try and get an article up with it. I want to chew on some more stats. But my prediction won’t be 3-0.
People will probably bet with your prediction. You are good thus far.
Yeah, been pretty fluky close so far. But seriously, it’s a guess and a fluke.
Well, put a disclosure on it and take a guess like you have been doing. I am just interested to see how your guess continues to be so closed. Maybe the mathematician in you subconsciously spits it out?
I am not a betting man and I will never be. But it is interesting how close you get to be the result of the scores for each game.
