[QUOTE="Purp, post: 2506898, member: 12852"] Yeah, there was quite a bit of concern over our injuries that they valued at about 8.5 points and then the rivalry aspect took it down another 8 just b/c this is the biggest rivalry in college football. So from 26 points as a starting point it went down quickly to under 10 points. Then, after accounting for the fact that they're going to give us their best effort of the season Baylor actually got another 14 points and became the favorite by 4.5. But then the Baylor sucks factor was considered and, worth 21 points by itself, that took the Frogs back to a heavy favorite at 16.5. After finally accounting for karma (another TD) the line settled at the Frogs being 23.5 point favorites. It's crazy what they take into account in Vegas putting these lines together. [/QUOTE]
