whats up guys

i'm a little surprised by the line of TCU -1.5 for this game. Really, I'm hesitant to play it because it looks like a trap.

Iowa St is more of a passing team, they have more completions on less attempts and a greater average per game than TCU. However, TCU has the much better running game, averaging 4.4 yards a rush to Iowa St.'s meager 2.8. TCU's only loss of the season came in their 2nd game of the year. Without that loss they could easily be in a BCS bowl. With the exception of a final game loss to Kansas, Iowa St. finished their season strong after losing three games in a row. Also, I believe a big factor in this game is that it's being played in Houston, a mere 4 hours from Fort Worth and TCU. In essence, it's a home game for a statistically better team...and the spread is -1.5?

Opinions are appreciated.

It's a steal! Take TCU. Their defense is good and very fast. Iowa State isn't a power team. TCU has a good passing game but a great rushing game and they are much more balanced than I. St.
I don't understand why people are on I St. so strong but they are on the wrong side of this one. Enough said???

TCU is undervalued and they will ROLL today.

Sorry Pal, tried to help!!! Don't ask me how I know but it won't be close.

TCU ROLLS!! :yeah:

Maybe you can get on them in the 2nd half.

What I can't understand is why everyone was all over Iowa State??? What have they done? It just doesn't make sense.
