Using Jake comparison Math, I have already shown that Oregon is 89 points better than Nevada. We all know that Math is meaningless but to say that nevada would easily beat Oregon is pretty much a joke. There's not a handicapper in the country except Jake that would not have Oregon as a favorite. They haven't played anyone that is ranked in the top 25 ! I love Boise State's team this year and think that on any given day they could beat anyone but let's not get carried away and pretend that Nevada is some powerhouse football team.
You will concede that your review is a conclusion that differs from pretty much every handicapper in the country right ? If you ever put forward a line that had Nevada favored over Oregon, you would get pretty much all one sided action I can assure you... of course unless Jake would put up about a $ 1,000,000 on Nevada to even out the action. When someone says " Joe could easily kick Bob's A-s, I take it that you believe that Joe would easily win the fight ! BTW You avoided one of my main points " You are not trying to convince us that Nevada is some kind of powerhouse football team... Are you ?
First off, I have never been a Boise State hater. I think they have an awesome team and I have stated that repeatedly ! Secondly I do have a problem with everyone telling us Duck fans about what happened last year on the blue turf ! Last year the Yankees won the World series, Last year the Saints won the Super bowl, last year Bama won the BCS title, last year N. Carolina won the NCAA basketball title ! My hat 's off to all of those great teams but last year's achievements will not help them win this year. Different players, different circumstances etc. etc.
Lastly I hope that Boise State meets Oregon in this year's title game and I think it will be a great game. I think the spread on the game will be very small which means most experts think that either team could win and I agree. Jake has never taken me up on my offer of a friendly wager of 10 lbs of Idaho spuds against my carton of Columbia River smoked Salmon if they should meet in the title game. We can settle up on the wager at next year Bash ! There is no hate as far as I'm concerned... just loyal fans supporting their favorite teams ! GL on all your wagers unless it's for the 10 lbs of Idaho Spuds !
VD It sounds like you and I should be game for a little side wager also. I will be at the Championship game. You come up with the stakes ! Make it interesting but make it small ..... I have kinda grown to like you and I want us to remain friends after the thrashing Boise State will be taking !
Who moved this thread to the rubber room ? Very interesting thread with lots of intelligent comments and posts that could help make $$ for posters and someone moved it to a place I have almost never visited ? What's the deal ? Pretty pathetic action in my opinion. Let's have Wil weigh in on this one ! I haven't a clue !
