ok...just had to look around right quick and give you the scoop on these 2 teams. i dont bet any game based solely on emotion factor from a loss. i just dont have the time to do the long writeups i used to do. cal is returning on o from a very good team the entire backfield and rec corps. this is minus the qb...but plus the parade all-american qb who was the starter earlier before an ankle injury. they are loaded man...thus all the preseason hype. also have what most publications were calling the best d-front in the country...a very tough lbacker corps...and the best 2 cbs in the pac 10. you got the team who was expected to battle usc for the pac 10 title against a minny team not even expected to contend in the big 10...with the better team at home and angry from being humiliated. this line was set expecting the thought process you used in the above post from the public. cal got blown up at tennessee...minny rolled a weaker team...minny is gonna travel accross the country and compete at cal. cal is clearly the better team...and 8 points is a value. once again...my opinion...and i respect yours as well. gotta go to work and then i think i am out of town til friday. i will holla at you all later. |
