Upset Thursday? (teams, Texas) - College Football - - City-Data Forum

Anyone think the Bruins can upset the Ducks, tonight?

Thursday nights seem to be big for upsets. Oregon State did it at home against USC, AZ did it at home to Oregon. I believe WVU and SFU, both got upset, out of the BigEast, on a Thursday night.

The Bruins are so up and down. They beat Texas in Austin...but have crapped the bed everywhere else. (can they only beat Texas teams?) Do they get up for this game? Do the Ducks have trouble adjusting to a different schedule? Are the fans less rabid on the weekdays?

I just don't know if I smell the upset or not. I'm trying to decide if I should bet. What does anyone else think? I think this is Oregon's toughest game...kind of a trap game for them...could they get caught looking ahead to the Trojans?

I don't expect it but I guess I wouldn't be too suprised either...

I would expect Oregon to win this one, but like you said, it could be a trap game so they'd better be prepared for this game.

Like Oregon in this one. I'm curious to see how the duck defense holds up against a UCLA running attack that ran hog wild through Darrell K Royal memorial stadium.

I don't know about an upset, but I would for sure take UCLA +26. That line seems kind of ridiculous to me.

I am curious as well to see the quacks d against a pretty solid ucla run game.

I think it could be a trap game. Probably not though, it is UCLA. quacks by 20.

Wow, I don't know that was a the spread. I'll take UCLA against the spread and the Ducks straight up. 20 sounds about right.

People are taking the Bruins. Spread fell a half point in an hour. 25.5. Over/under is right now, at 61.5. I'm taking WAY over....thinking about betting a parlay.

I don't think UCLA can pull this off. Does Oregon still pay the refs?

When did the Ducks become the Luckeyes?
