    Ok Hornfans, I am in in Lake Tahoe this weekend. Later tonight I am going to put a parlay bet down on behalf of Hornfans.com. If we win, I will mail @Dionysus the proceeds as a donation.

    Like last year, I will choose the first two games to parlay, you get to pick the third game. The game with the most votes gets added to the parlay as the third game. Here are this weeks odds ...

    NCAA College Football Odds and Daily Lines - ESPN

    My picks are: Game 1 - Penn State -6.5 will donkey stomp Minn. Game 2: Texas -7 over KState (unless u tell me I’m crazy, I feel more loyal than confident)

    honorable mention: Wake Forest -2.5 over Va Tech

    Let me know what you think! It’s fun to have a community parlay. You will have juice on the games tomorrow!

    I am sight seeing today and tomorrow, So I will not be watching the games in real time. I’ll check back tonight on the consensus. Thanks for playing :headbang:

    That’s a good one SN. My Texas pick makes me really nervous. I may have to replace with ND. But I will wait to see what others think bout Texas

    I like the Texas bet.

    Appalachian St. is my vote.

    Illinois getting 14.5 at Michigan St.
    I don’t think Michigan St can score 15 against the sisters of the poor

    I ain't got a clue what those betting lines mean, so I'm useless.

    So.... is Bama favored, or LSU?

    Ok, after the votes have been reviewed, ND is the 3rd game. Official parlay bet has been placed:

    Penn St -6 1/2 11:00 am central time
    Texas -7 1/2 2:30 pm central time
    ND. - 8 1/2 6:30 pm central time

    I stuck with Texas with hopes the returning players on defense make a huge impact. Go big or go home :coolnana:

    Texas gets +7 1/2, right?

    * edit Holy crap! I thought we were getting the points, not giving them. Now I am pretty nervous about that line too. I think we win, but by more than a TD? Not confident in that at all.

    I love the idea and hope for Dion and HF you hit. I think the fly in the ointment may be Minn getting 6 at home. People will be talking about PJ being the "it" coach after this win. "Row the boat"!

    Because of the parlay, they stuck us with the extra half point ... kind of makes it extra dangerous! But extra satisfying if the Horns do it!

    Minnesota plays really good football. Texas couldn't blow out a candle.

    I thought for sure Minn and Baylor were both undefeated paper tigers. My bad. Now I think Baylor can beat OU.

    Yep.

    I stopped by to eat a little crow re: Minnesota. I most certainly underestimated them.

    Maybe, but I for one will be quite surprised if they do.
    I'll be surprised if it is very close even.
    One things for sure...it will be a game between two teams that were very fortunate to not add an L yesterday.

    Although OU's defense is starting to look like last year's defense lately.... They played lights out against us with 9 sacks but now it seems their slip is showing on defense....
