9-2 and that sounds like easy money. Sure to drop during the week.

I was just looking at DraftKings and saw 10 points dogs and came here to check to see if I was reading that right. Guess I need to put some down on that stuff.
 
Army is a run heavy team which plays plays well into our strengths in defense. I don't see Army doing much this game.

I feel so much more confident knowing I have seen our LBs and DBs make open field tackles throughout this season.
Army is impossible to stop if your defenders can't tackle one on one. Gang tackling is less frequent because every defender is assigned an offensive skill player and if you cheat on your assignment Army will burn you.

Wow. Usually when a line is this unusual i ask what vegas knows that the rest of us don't.

Whatever it is, i can't see it.

I agree. Something about this line doesn't smell right. As we were driving home from the Rent yesterday, me and my crew were trying to figure what the line against Army would be. There was four of us and we all agreed that Uconn would be any where from 3-6 point favorites. We all know our stuff and do a little handicapping before a wager is made. With the present line of Army -10 and the U/O being 43.5, the projected score would to be Army 27-17 for them to cover. Army will not score, I repeat NOT SCORE 27 points Saturday. They have only scored 16 points the last two weeks combined. I spoke to a Army season ticketholder today at church and told him I was going to the game next Saturday and he said Army sucks this year. He blames the coach. I have been to Michie stadium a number of times. Great place to see a game, but not a huge home field advantage. Just don't see how a team. winners of five of their last six games, the last one being against a top 25 team be a 10 point dog against a team that has only beat one FBS team all year. SOMETHING STINKS

I was surprised by this line as well. Oddsmakers are probably looking at last year's result, the fact that Army is hard to beat at home, and their two recent defensive performances against Air Force and Troy. They may also think we will be emotionally drained after the big win over Liberty. The fact that we are already bowl eligible whereas Army has to win out may also be a factor.

The +10 spread should get our guys fired up.
 
One of the reasons for the +10 spread could be UConns 1-5 road record. Remember the odds makers don't set the spread on what they think will happen. They set the spread to get the same amount of money on each side. The thought may be that gamblers will look at UConn 's road record and bet Army.

Obviously we want to win next week against Army. If we do we not only get to seven wins but we knock Army out of bowl eligibility. Navy is not bowl eligible. that’s two spots that open up for us.

Not positive but I thought I read Army was already out because two of their wins are FCS and you only get bowl credit for one.

Going into this week Army had to win their last four games. They lost to Troy. They have one fbs win and one fcs win that counts
 
That 1-5 road record. Hmmm, four of those teams were ranked at the time. And three still are. Kinda think the sharps may know that, but perhaps the betting public does not. So, an opportunity?

Just win baby. To paraphrase Don Brown: solve your problems by winning.
