does anyone have any real strong convictions about the Wave tomorrow night? I really want to pull the trigger on it because this could be a program shifting win for them and they've looked the part so far.


but it is Tulane. so does the momentum run out here? I see 31-28ish if they're going to win. both teams 2-1 ATS this year

Don't know about the wave, but thinking of taking Over 56.

Tons of internal pressure for Tulane here. Everyone who cares about the program is sky high about the game. That could be good or bad. Can't really guess how they'll respond.

It's hard to ride with the over as well. Tulane's defense has looked legit (and they really are good up front) and the offense is still a run-heavy scheme which thrives with ball control despite the new OC. I don't know if King is the best fit for what Holgerson likes to do with the Air Raid either.

I have the Wave in a bunch of ML parlays and tease pieces - they should win going away based on the situational spot. They should be able to maul Houston on the ground, and defensively I don't see Houston sustaining many long drives.

King for UH is athletic enough to break a good defense that doesn't have tons of speed on it. It might be a bad thing for Tulane to drive him from the pocket.

Yeah true I don't know much about Tulane's LB corps - definitely a match-up worth looking at.

The metrics are way down on Houston, but in fairness to them they've played 2 really good offenses. Tulane's offense is a bit one-note.

I just like the Wave's intangibles - Houston put a lot into their loss to Wazzu and not sure how motivated they will be going into Tulane. Should be a pretty hyped crowd for Tulane's standards too.

i’m starting to lean taking the points but expecting Tulane to win. King has been good, not great. and despite giving up 49 and 31 to OU and Wazzu, their defense isn’t awful. the did give up more points to Prarie View or whoever than was necessary has anyone checked the line movement? if it’s coming down I might just wait until closer to kick. that Over looks tasty though

Line movement


It opened at Tulane -3.5 now its -5. It did get up to -5.5 yesterday afternoon. It opened at Ov/Un 62 and now it’s 56 on the book I use.

Exactly why I took UH and the points. I think Tulane will win, but UH should keep it close. Also took the under @ 56

I ended up taking U56. according to the experts, the under hits 57% of the time that there's wind higher than 12 MPH . I couldn't decide what to do

FSU looked WAY better last week at Virginia. Hard to believe it was the same team. They kind of deserved to win - I had UVA huge on moneyline and I sweated my arse off the entire 4 hours.
