Default Kansas vs. Kstate

I am pissed that i am posting this now that the line has moved down to 8.5 but i still think it is a great bet. for those that know me, i am an avid Kansas football fan and handicapper. Living in lawrence, ks and having several connections to sports radio, the university and other sources, I am able to fully understand the Kansas football team. Nevadaside can vouge for me that i have had a great record with KU FB and BB against the spread. My biggest Kansas play was last week as I knew we would get destroyed by TT. I was going to post this but after seeing all of the great handicappers on this sight had Kansas, I didn't want to interfere. It seemed that everyone had KU and I actually made TT my biggest play of the year. Anyways, I have this week's game as my next biggest KU play ever. Not to bore you, but the simple truth is that the linesmakers and public are still reflecting back on last year's season for this KU team. The lines still reflect a KU team that used to have a running game, cornerbacks (Aqib Talib) and defensive ends that could put pressure on the QB. This year's team lacks all of the basic fundamentals of a good team. They can't rush the QB, run the ball or stop a strong passing team. I have watched the KU/Kstate series for years and years and this is always a game that both bring their best. In my mind, these two teams are very equal in talent with a small edge to KU. However, the small edge in talent does not always show on the field. To summarize, this game will be back and forth for 4 qtrs and I actually expect Kstate to win and for sure be within a TD. Even though the line has moved to 8.5, this is still a great line to jump on Kstate.

Here is how I got this game capped.

Kansas State 60
Kansas -2

So I feel the same way, a bet on Kansas State +8.5 is a good bet I feel.

totally agree with you Gambler, KSU has a great record in this rivalry. KU has really slumped this year, more so than I thought they would. I got caught up in their previous abilities & LOST with them last week. Wish I would've known you were on TT big, I would have rolled with you for sure, as you have proven time & time again that you know those JAYHAWKS.

Lets CASH this one man.........

I have Kansas favored at 11 1/2, but which teams are going to show up? Kansas seems to be more of the dependable team week in and out, but K-State is scary in that they can put in good performances, or get blown out. Kansas is the better team for sure (and better coached) but K-State can get hot and put up lots of numbers. I won't play, but at 11 1/2 I would gamble with K-State.

Kansas blows this year, and wasn't all that good last year. They never should have made it to a BCS bowl last year after their pattycake schedule. K State kinda sucks too, but in a rivalry game like this, they should keep it close.
