Minnesota -21 vs Rutgers

If they shut down Giovanni Resigno our defense will have no answer for their offense. I would give the points because the probability of them shutting us down is greater than the probability of Giovanni being the next Mike Teel. My comment is purely based on betting. Also factor in that it's an away game.
 
This line is shocking (and depressing), as I thought it would open at RU +14ish. Will be interesting to see how the line moves. Will also be interesting to see how the media reacts if we pull the upset.
 
why in the world are you guys shocked by this? What RU team have you been watching and bear in mind, we now start an unknown and unproven commodity against a team that has good line play, is disciplined, can move the ball and it's away

c'mon people, be realistic, the line is probably generous but God do I hope we start something new this weekend and show we can play
 
My guess is the line must not only have to do with QB play, but also special teams and therefore average starting field position. Does Minny have a good returner?
 
Its actually a great bet if you aren't a Rutgers fan.
That is the problem. I could never bet against RU and based upon our history I have learned never to bet on RU. We always seem to find new and interesting ways to lose even when we are good.
 
Its simple math based on Rutgers inability to score plus playing on the road with a new quarterback.
 
I'm thinking y'all might win with Liedner being out and with little tape on Gio there won't be as much opportunity to game plan for him. I'm considering betting the money line

Hmmm. Iowa and Illinois did nothing on offense against us. We had chances on offense against both but blew them.

Everything went wrong against Illinois and we lost by 17.

The opportunity will be there for us to win or keep it close. Will the players execute?
 
21 was cray, taking the 21 was the play and hoping it drops to middle it.
 
One of my buddies who bets CFB told me today that his bookie service has taken the game off the board.

Any confirmation of this from others ?

They already forgot we lost AT HOME by 17 to a terrible Illinois squad. Lay the points if your thing is betting on CFB
 
So far Rutgers has not covered. There is no reason to think they will start covering any time soon.
