Texas-Missouri opening line

[Hank South]

 

[Texas fan in Georgia]

I think it climbs if Colin returns.

[Alex Butler]

Too many points. Their defense is good and our offense is easily defensible. Plus, they’re going to control TOP with their running game. I’ve got very little contin this game especially with injuries all over and the offensive line getting whooped like a red headed step child. 

[Glass Joe]

I’d put money on Mizzou and give Texas 3.5 points without hesitation.  Dumb line.

[Paul Jespersen]

Texas at #11 and Missouri @ 19 in coaches poll heading into game.

[Shmatt]

Not betting this game at all

[Gerry Hamilton]

Low of 39

kickoff likely to be in the 40’s with little wind 

[Joe Naural]

I bet Wingo goes off!!!!!! Over 150 yds in front of his froends n family - peers

we cannot look at any team’s offensive performance vs any defense as a predictor of our success.  it’s shawn watson/tim beck bad this year.

Not even close. 

2014 Shawn Watson offensive FEI: 88th
2017 Tim Beck offensive FEI: 95th

2026 offensive FEI: 34th

I haven’t checked in a while - what is Texas ATS this year? Cannot be great. I’d take Mizz this weekend if forced to bet.

Because betting lines are set based off of how people are expected to bet and it adjusts based off of where the money is going. It's not really set up that they objectively believe Texas is a 3.5 point favorite

To be fair, they have been right. With the exception of the games we were actually supposed to win. For whatever is worth. But I agree with you in theory.

[Quinncent McManning, Jr.]

We might be out all the guys that were hurt in the miss st game. Having Colin back won’t compensate for that.

I rewatched the Arky Missou game.  Two things:

1.  I don't think Missou is ready for our defense.  The aggies are probably the best D they've played this year, but they ain't us.

2.  Arky is not a good team and gave up on that game.  

IF our offense plays at an average level or above, we cover.  Have already put my wager in.

Is Missouri yet another veer and shoot offense we will play?

I mean who are you going to bet on

[Realist Horn]

Already down to -2.5; I’d expect it to close near -1.

and IF we don't come out and play like we did vs OU

There are always intangibles.  I see both defenses dominating this game, so scoring 20 is a W.  Under Sark the Horns are much worse offensively on the road, which is hard to imagine this season.  And, considering our consistent special teams gaffes, our defense will need a heroic effort - including multiple TO's and possibly points - to pull this one off in Columbia.  I feel a long-awaited Mizzou victory this time, 17-13.  And the Horns will be right back into the do-or-die mode, which just might propel them to victory in Baton Rouge next week.  Hook 'em!
