Smoked Pork: BYU vs. Arkansas

[Art Vandelay]

Even more bets and money have been put on Arkansas since my earlier post (now 75% of bets and 74% of money) but BYU is now the favorite again by 1 - 1.5 points. I'm guessing that Vegas knows something about injuries even if it isn't public knowledge yet.

My guess is what "Vegas knows" is what the sharps are betting. If majority of public money is going to Ark, the books seem happy to give them even better odds to offset wiseguys and sharps are hammering BYU. This game is having a lot larger point swings than normal without injuries involved.

Thinking about heading to the game and trying the scalp method. Normally I would just take advantage of the motorcycle parking, but my 14 yo is begging to go with me. Where would be the best place to park for a lowly non CC member.

The parking garage next to the Marriott school always has spots in it. The tunnel to Helaman halls has been under construction so it hasn’t been the great parking spot that it has in the past.

So, we have no running game. That’s great.

How on earth was there no PI on that pass?

Wow. That was a unbelievable punt by Arkansas. Looked like about 80 yards in the air, 70 net

Little Hobbs just trucked that poor defender at the end.

Im not sure what I think about Puka lining up in the backfield.

You don’t like taking out best receiver who is already gimpy out of the slot and putting him where he’s going to take hits instead? Why’s that?

[BigFatMeanie]

Our run D. Oy

[All-American]

Passing game is on.

kicking game…. Why??

[All-American]

Another exchange of touchdowns, and it is increasingly clear that nobody will bother to play defense today.

[All-American]

Well, we played just a little defense there. Holding them to a field goal preserves a 4-point lead, with time for another drive and taking the ball to begin the 2d half.

[BigFatMeanie]

Hall looked speedier there than he has the past few weeks.

[BigFatMeanie]

Twice so far today that we’ve fumbled the snap under center.
