Shotgun probably really upset right now. He worships bartoo.
What did bartoo have to say about tenn? He picked them as a playoff contender (lol).
I missed it when he originally picked them over WV but he must have talked the Vols up as beating WV handily b/c the Tweets were brutal.Quote:

Actually he's right quite often. He was 5-2 against spread last week. Lost big on UWV/Tenn game. If you go with recruiting rankings as your primary way to pick games, you probably gonna be right a good bit of the time.Quote:

Covers the spread. Historically speaking ... at K State they are extremely good at doing that.Quote:

This explains quite a bit about you. You allow others to define the foundation of your thoughts, as opposed to relying on what you see for yourself. It also explains why you've consistently gone off the rails in your posts since C34 left the board. He provided you the perspective and you turned his thoughts and twisted the verbiage to make it sound original.Quote:

He also said that using his matrix Don leaving meant we'd only win 7 games this year which is a load of crap. He just panders to the big teams and skews his matrix to fit their team having success. Which is understandable, I mean the guy is running a business and those bigger fan bases will buy whatever he's selling if it's positive for their team. Pretty sure he's been on the Texas is back bandwagon for years now.Quote:

Some of these predictions are done to gin up controversy and generate excitement. They mean nothing.
I agree completely.Quote:

He was betting the spread not the win.
K State is going to stack the box and force Nick to throw. Last year that was a good game plan but this year with Mitchell, Guidry and Austin Williams it might not be the smartest move.Quote:

My gut instinct is to bet the house on MSU, but something just seems off. I'm not betting us this week.
It's like he just wanted to include all the biggest national fanbases for clicks or something. Can't believe he left off Michigan.Quote:

I dont expect a blowout at all. This is a tricky game. If we go in there and blow them out, I'll be all aboard the 11-1 or 12-0 train.
I get that instinct, but it's simply not true.Quote:

I think Vegas gets too much credit.
I view this as like when we play one of those MAC teams.Quote:

tough place to play--wow. We play LSU-Auburn-Bama-etc. just how tough can it be? I'll bet on this game. I'll bet our defense clamps down on the Wildcat's nuts. I'll bet Fitz has a great game. K-State doesn't even hav e 4 star playing. Jimmys and Joes is what it is about. Jo-Mo will have us ready.
Go look at their home record under Snyder. Very few blowouts. Lots of wins, some big upsets, and a lot of close losses to highly ranked teams.Quote:

Sometimes, week 1 results can sway opinions a little too much. You always take week 1 with a grain of salt.
