They must’ve heard about the prices us UTEP fans are willing to pay 😆
It's on the Big10 network. So interesting that Northwestern went from -3 to +1.5 either Vegas knows something or is baiting betters. As much as we think we know about Utep, Vegas knows more about what's going on with Northwestern than we do and they don't just make lines for no reason. They at least believe Utep to be better to have them favored on the road no less.
Thanks for the info. A miner fan regular corrected us on the abbreviation.
I’m not looking at this game as “which team team is better”, I’m looking at it along the lines of “which team IS NOT as shitty.”
The crazy thing is we could win this and it still not be a big deal or a surprise to anyone except Miner Fans since we're supposed to win lol Now we have pressure to beat a Big 10 team on the road, that sounds weird 😵💫😬 lol
I hope these players work their asses off this week and Dimel unhooks the trailer because on paper it looks like the stars are aligned.
Yeah I hope Dimel opens it up and plays aggressively in the beginning and gets up a little and then does his traditional Milk job or whatever to walk out of Evanston with a win. This is the best chance we have to beat a P5, cause I think Arizona is about 3tds better than us.
I think it is the qb play for both teams and in college football seniors are expected to make an impact on team play. We all love the stars by the players name but that doesn't mean squat. It's the seniors who set the core, the expected performance, the culture, etc.; and as stated by our NU friend, they lack that for obvious reasons. UTEP, who have seniors/upperclassman who have stated that they want to get to the CUSA Championship and are great athletes (and turned down P5 offers), fell short last year.
Great Pick, I'll give you my first born, left testicle and deed to my house if you get this right. You may not want the testicle though it's enlarged a bit 🫣 lol
Heck, even then. They are a bad P5 team but they are still P5 with some P5 talent. I haven't looked but I'm sure their OL and DL is just as big as UTEPs, If not much bigger. I bet their team speed is equal if not greater. And then we dtill have Dimel as coach. Utep has its work cut out for them.
Because Las Vegas is smarter than us Miner fans
Vegas doesn't give 2 shits about the few Miner fans lol
I didn't say that. I just mean they know much more about Northwestern than we think we do and if they put this line it's for a reason. They do more research and analysis than we do, plus we think with our heart strings not logic. I'm surprised as well and think it's sketch. I personally would've handicapped Northwestern -4 1/2, but maybe they know something we don't.
Sure, but home field alone is usually worth about 3 points, so the line is surprising IMO.
What's funny is that you think that 50 miner fans putting bets would move the needle for Vegas, that's dumb LMAO 🤣 I'm saying they didn't make this line solely based on a couple lowley Miner fans putting some bets down which is Exactly what you said!
All it takes is one person to make a big bet to move the line. That person could have nothing to do with either school. Just someone trying to make money from the lines.
I 100% agree with that, but that's not again what I made jest to. I made a point about them not being concerned with a couple of Miner fans bets then all of the sudden changing it based on that. However I get where you're coming from now Man.
Pretty easy to game plan for Dimel’s offense— sell out on stopping the run and force Hardison to beat you throwing.
