Texas vs Rice (NCAAF)

[McLOVIN]

It's not Rice to win by 24, it's Rice to lose by less than 24.

If Texas doesn't win by at least 24 then Rice "wins" the bet.

I know. That's why 24 is way too much.


24-3 UT

I am not gonna bet. I don't like College Football

College football is way better than NFL.

24-3 UT

I think it's safe to say that UT is expected to win by more than 24 (as Mark said, it's now 30 points). Last 5 meetings:

52-10 (2008)
58-14 (2007)
52-7 (2006)
51-10 (2005)

That 2008 game was with our best offense in ages--we went 10-2 and sent two of those players to the NFL (Dillard, Casey).

It would be a dream if we cover the spread, and a miracle if we actually win.

If you guys win I will eat my hat live on webcam

Mmmm, I'd be willing to lose 1.2 billion to see that!

 

[pcfan123]

I mean win the game, not cover the spread

I hate it when people says that too. Obviously it's just an exaggeration.

Damn Sohum changed his avatar. He had the last one since ever

I prefer watching college football, too. Probably since the defense is weaker so there is a lot more offense.

Bah, what's vCash worth. I'm gonna take a punt on Rice covering the spread.

Mc once you are at college you will get it. Rooting for your school to win versus rooting for some rich pricks business is just not comparable.

Another good point, NFL defense is so fast that you can't run certain plays. You will only see exciting plays like the "option" in college.

 

[McLOVIN]

There is more to that than just "rich prick business".

I do go to college. Except it's a art academy. So none of that college sports. Once I transfer out to UCLA or Sana Barbabra ...

In what ways? More pride, more rivalry?

Let's make this interesting. One of your International Cricket caps?:laugh

 

[AkshayS]

fix it if you wanna see Mark eating his cap.

No more like few 30+ year old guys sitting at home and going "hey I used to go to that college, I still support the football team!"

Minor League >> NCAA. And that's a whole another different discussion

 

[sohum]

Sorry, McLOVIN, but you are wrong.

Just come to Texas, I bet you will find more UT fans here than the combined fans for the Cowboys and the Texans. And not all of them went to UT, either.
