Your mileage may vary, of course.

If I was a betting man...

I’d be happy with a 1-point win.

What he said.
Oddsmakers continue to give us the unwarranted benefit of the doubt in initial lines.
Stanford was 12 and GA 31 both bet larger before game time. My guess is that this one could shrink to around 11 by kick.

Vandy is 2-1 all-time against UConn and has never beaten them by more than 4 points.

All I know is I'm looking forward to being there Saturday night. There'll be ample room to spread out, only a 20 percent chance of rain that evening (as of now) and I believe the Commodores will be fighting hard.

If this team(and coaches) don't come out fired up and excited to play then pack it in. They should be fighting mad. I hope there is still fight in them and they believe what the coaches are telling them.

And one of those games was the 2011 game that I think set the tone for the rest of the CJF era, a 24-21 win sparked by Casey Hayward's pick six. Of course, UConn was a much better program then.

That was a year after UConn beat us 40-21. Naturally, that loss came the very next week after we won an SEC game (28-14 over Messussippy).

Shocking. Should be the other direction.
