Mizzou can be the world's most united team but it still is bad at football.

 

Let's all pull together for Mizzou as BYU dumptrucks them by 30!

 

Mizzou will be playing the whitest team in all of Division I. I like the Tigers... for this one game.

 

LOL. I'm there now. The Army parachute team that delivered the game ball was thankfully more on target than anyone in orange.

 

GT's defense needs a safe space away from its dogass fumbling running backs.

 

Nice of GT to respect tradition and give away a game to Beamer with a stupid penalty. Classy move with his retirement coming up, and so much more meaningful than a print of previous times they'd done it. Look for Mike London to follow suit and save all his timeouts to ice the kicker three times.

 

I want to stab myself in the eye after watching that game.

 

I have what I hope is a very pedestrian question ... Why are some games reported with the favorite as a "minus-X" and others with the underdog as a "plus-X"? Suppose in one game you have:

Xxxxxxxxx vs. Xxxxxxxxxx (-3.5)

and in another you have:

Yyyyyyyyy (+3.5) vs. Yyyyyyyyyy

From a wagering perspective, is there any difference between these lines? If not ... Why the difference?

 

Listing the away team first?

 

Thanks. That's it ... It enables a consistent, two-column, two-row table:

Visitor O/U
Home Line

If the home team is the favorite, the line is a minus-whatever. If the home team is the underdog, it's a plus-whatever.
