This is one of those occasions where your football eyes are not going to agree with this bet. Colorado looked fantastic last week, winning outright against TCU as a 20 point underdog. The Buffs offense looked explosive, and Shedeur Sanders looked like one of the best QBs in the nation. Colorado’s X factor Travis Hunter looked like one of the best wide receivers and one of the best cornerbacks in the nation. Overall, there was a lot to be excited about following Colorado’s week 1 win. On the other side of this matchup is Nebraska, who lost to Minnesota 13-10. Nebraska’s offense was brutal to watch. Their QB Jeff Simms threw 3 interceptions, and only passed for 114 yards. So when we say your “football eyes” will disagree with this bet, we simply mean that it’s hard to imagine (based on last week) that Nebraska will be able to keep pace with Colorado’s offense. The look ahead line on this game last week was Nebraska -8.5. Now the line sits at Nebraska +3.5. Whenever you see a lookahead line move this drastically, it’s important to ask yourself why the line moved. For example, did the line move because of a key injury, or the availability of a key player or players? If so, the line movement may be justified. In this case, it is not a key injury or any availability concerns. We believe this line move is more of an overreaction to one team playing extremely well, and the other team playing awful. I think we can all agree that Colorado is going to be better than anticipated, but this double digit line move is too extreme for us to pass up. It’s a tough bet to stomach, but our wager is one unit on Nebraska to cover the +3.5 spread.
