The line

I get it. Every one in America knows the line is set to get balanced bets. But 12.5 dogs last year and 10 point dogs last night. People said Vegas must know something. I said they know how to get Oregon fans money

Combine that with Husky fans still suffering from PTSD and reluctant to bet and you get a big line that doesn't reflect the emotion on the field. That should change as Husky Arrogance is welcomed back to bigtime football.

It also shows the power of media - social and legacy - to set a narrative and how many folks just follow along

Oregon didn't tell all the pundits to go full retard but it sure played into the hands of the DAWGS

I'm thinking that these teams are about 3 points apart

Home, away, neutral field

Maybe London or Berlin?

UW was >10 points better last night. The score line was flattering to Oregon.

I was more nervous at 17-3 and 20-10 than when UW fell behind. I knew that was coming. And when it was close in the 4th I knew who would win

I was not trolling with my 20 point win prediction. I felt UW was going to do it for 60 minutes. But 3 points is fine

Agree, I was actually somewhat glad it was 4 pts behind as well because they would need to score a touchdown.

I'm a huge believer in not kicking field goals to go up by 6. Coming back the other way teams will pull out every trick and 4th down play if they know they need a TD. If they only need a FG to tie teams often get squirrelly and dink around until they give their kicker a 42 yarder.

Kinda like the first Oregon game. Play for a field goal.
