Spread has come down a couple of points from the open, although the Over/Under has increased by a point. This tells me there IS money out there that knows Patterson always seems to have the cockroaches ready to play us, especially in their house.

However, they could not contain Pony Excess and they have no Bijan. Last week put Bijan back into some of the Heisman discussions, especially with Rattler falling off a cliff the past few weeks. I expect to see Bijan have 200 yards easily...and that is while sitting out the 4th quarter since Sark will recognize that a rested and healthy Bijan is better than being injured in the pursuit of individual post-season glory. He will also get intermittent rest during the game as Roschon Johnson gets another 100 yards or so.

Casey continues not to strike out, although he will have a couple of drives that don't end in a TD. He also learns from the pick and is committed to making sure that doesn't happen again.

Between the two programs, we see more than 1000 yards of total offense and the combined point total is north of 90. Garbage time performances on both sides of the ball yield cheap points for the cockroaches.

My call...sponsored by the makers of RAID! (ok, not really)

Texas- 59
TCU- 36
 
Texas - 52
Horn Roaches - 24

Done underestimating Sark O. Looking at the Pony game, their secondary isn’t the fastest and I don’t think they’ll stop Bijan.

Don't underestimate things...TCU COULD contain Bijan...









after all, have you SEEN how close the stadium wall is to the edge of the end zone?

forecast for rain this Saturday could make for sloppy conditions and a closer game. 33-27

Alternately, sloppy conditions CAN produce HUGE rushing totals...and if they shut down a passing game, that hurts the cockroaches far more than it does Texas.

When will Texas fans learn that Texas ALWAYS faces a different team than whatever whichever team someone thinks they can compare stats against?
 
TCU gets back 2 or 3 defensive studs they were missing last week. I am not convinced of our greatness just yet, especially on the road. I think we win it, but only just.

Texas 31
TCU 28
 
Score early and score often...get paid :)

Only Toledo had better price for the first TD. Middling odds for the most point prop though...this one is not to be confused with the Over/Under combined totals...
