No comments? Not sure why they couldn't have a better game scheduled for tonight, considering Thursday night is a showcase...

I'm happy about the opener, got UNLV +35 1/2 . Granted they'll likely get demolished but I'm banking on Wisconsin looking ahead to Oregon St.
^ I'm pulling for you guys. I haven't made any comments, because like the OP said, no big games are scheduled tonight. Fresno opens against Cal in Candlestick on Saturday. ...should be an exciting game. I'm hoping Spurrier doesn't overlook East Carolina. Glad college football is back.
yep, this is terrible. Line came up to 35 just before kickoff. ESPN announcers are also blatantly cheerleading for and drooling over Wisconsin. Ugh.
In the first quarter, I realized how rusty I am. I forgot how Bielema tries to make his offense seem like the best in college football by running up the score as much as possible in the second half. 60s and 70s often last season against bad teams. I hope he doesn't do that tonight, but it's too late to matter.
If you got it at 34 I feel bad for you... Honestly I knew UNLV's D was bad but I was happy with the way the O performed against a good D. They shot themselves in the foot a few times but I am happy that they didn't quit. We're not a good football team and I didn't expect it to be close but I'll have a better idea of my team next week against Washington St.
miraculous. I actually shut the game off after I saw the wisconsin player stumble into the endzone announcers were debating whether it was a TD and I just shut it off. I bet +34.5 at the end after the line moved up. My afternoon bet was +34.5 -107 and later I got +34.5 at a lower price. Odds of 34 vs. 34.5 coming into play must've been miniscule.
