Obviously, if the Bulls are a play its almost a gimme to parlay them with the over.Not very likely that a Bulls cover would stay under the number.

I am a bit concerned with the Bulls D. Giving up nearly 400 yards to Temple is not a good thing. Mizzou can name their score here, just hope that the Bulls and Starks can put up 20+. GL with the play

i think buffalo's offense is diverse enough to get to 20+. theyve done a good job rotating starks, thermilus, and henry and they have pretty good balance in the passing and rushing game. right now they are stronger on offense than defense. so even in the mac, theyre almost going to have to outscore their own defense. is that a big concern when playing an explosive team like missouri? yeah. but the tigers defense is very forgiving as well. if buffalo can get into the endzone twice, theres a reasonable shot to cover. if they can get in 3 times, i feel very good about this play.

If Missouri gets up by 40+ in the second half Pinkel will call off the dogs. But, he will have them playing all out the first half no matter what the score. I love Missouri -20 first half and over 36.5 in the first half with the over in the game.

Pinkel was a MAC coach for many years..If he gets a sizable lead he may possibly call off the dogs here..But I'm still not 100 percent convinced about Mizzou's defense. I would be surprised if Buffalo didn't score points here. Mizzou is facing a better passing QB this week.

pinkel is a good guy but his teams seem to always be a 50/50 shot to show up focused each week. this is obviously his strongest team but mizzou has been known to have some inexplicable clunkers. obviously UB isnt going to threaten for any sort of win here but with big12 play right around the corner i can see a fairly uninspired 20 point win here. no doubt i could be playing with fire here and the tigers could drop a 60 spot on me and have the number covered by halftime. but i really dont see it and am comfortable with the dog. i think the over is the way to go as well. saw that youre on that and i think youre on the right side. gl sooners.

what did you play it at Prodigy? I got Buffalo +33 earlier in the week, but see a lot of 31.5 - 32 now

Mizzou has bye week I believe next week. I think this team is very focused this season. I don't see a let down but feel number is tight. Buffalo 1st half may be the play but way Mizzou has been coming out of the box, I think it will be more of the same.

Everyone and their mother is on Buffalo.

Why?

Cuz they scored in the 20's on Temple and thru up a hail mary to win?

Whats with the lovefest?

Mizzou has the most explosive offense in the country, if they are putting up 50+ on these other teams, then they are putting up 50+ on Buffalo.

I mean how many pts are you guys expecting Buffalo to score?

21?
24?
27?
30?

everyone and their mother is not on buffalo. nor are they on missouri for that matter. not a lot of people like getting involved with 30+ point spreads one way or the other. this is one time i am willing to back an ostensibly overmatched dog. line far too inflated. and if it loses, so be it.

Prodigy,

It opened at Missouri -34, it's down to 31.5, so don't tell me nobody is on Buffalo. It got hit like a son of a bitch.

Plus, every post regarding this game I have seen on here aside from yours considering this game is on Buffalo.

So don't tell me the favor isnt going towards Buffalo.

My question is, why???

A low Division 1 program going cross-country to play a Top 5 power with possibly the best offense in the nation.

Why all the love???

i didnt say 'nobody' is on buffalo.
i said 'everyone and their mother' is not on buffalo.
quite a big difference. the line move from 34 to 31.5 is tantamount to a single digit line moving from 5.5 to 6.5. its not a big deal.
as for the posts youre seeing, look at the sample size youre considering.

call me crazy but i love playing lines when they are over 26+ points. I took PSU (-29.5) and Missouri (-32.5) and probably Texas (-29) tonight. best of luck with your picks.

The Luckeyes were lucky to get their one BCS title in the 2003 Fiesta Bowl over the Canes. :nono5:

Truth be told, every Luckeye alum and fan should have Terry "On the Take" Porter (back judge in the game) on their Christmas card list for life. :finger:

And yes, I am a UM alum. :tongue2:


Preach!!

I'm on the under here. I think Buffalo finds a way to use up the clock to keep Missouri's high-powered offense off the field at least enough for this to go under.

About 5 plays and Mizzou up 7-0. Cmon people. Stop it with the Buffalo jargon. This game won't be close.
