SMU vs. UAB

[surrealvol]

SMU is a 21 point favorite according to FoxSports.

Did I miss something here? SMU? 21 points? Over UAB?

Sounds like a sucker bet.

Hell Ill take UAB straight up to beat SMU.

Depends on how good SMU's offense is... UAB gives up a lot of points.

Hackney is unstoppable. He has been all year.

Doesn't seem right. Unless the pony express is back (Dickerson/James)

I think SMU beat TCU right after they beat Okla.

The most points scored against UAB this year is 28. The least they've scored is 10 (against us). Other games have been upper 20's, 35 and 56.

I'll be at the game BTW. It's UAB's homecoming.

Yeah, to some teams :ninja:

I guess a little research would help.

UAB if favored by 21 NOT SMU. Over/under at 46

SMU is 1 - 4 on the year and 0 - 2 in CUSA. Losses to Baylor, Texas A&M, Tulane and Marshall. Win over TCU.

Go Blazers!

UAB by 21 makes sense, but it is still -21 on the SMU line at FoxSports...probably a typo.

A minus sign means you are favored.

 

[milohimself]

I thought the number was always for the home team... Minus means the home team is favored, plus means the away team is favored.

 

[surrealvol]

Nope, whichever team has the minus by their name is the favorite by that number of points...they need to make up the minus to beat the spread.
