dallas, i understand your logic and why you would like tcu, but why does the line smell like a rat to you? you just explained some of the most basic reasons that would justify a line like this. i did expect it to come out significantly higher, but they have adjusted it imo because many people have seen the frogs play very impressively, and utah has played a few games that weren't impressive....and they seem to be right because it definitely seems there is lopsided action on tcu. i've talked to hundreds of people about this game, most of which like tcu, and the first thing that they mention is the defense (which is undoubtedly the most impressive and not the wrong place to start at all when talking about this game), and usually the second thing they mention is something that has to do with new mexico (which imo is very flawed logic). i like utah based on my rating of them before the season, potential and spot, and the intangibles i've seen out of them this year and last year with my own eyes. if you had not watched these teams and compared stats, and that was your primary reason for the wager, of course you'd be on tcu. therefore, i think if there is a side that looks "too easy", it's tcu...not utah. overall perception on these teams of course immediately gives the oklahoma game a pass, and somewhat rightfully so. so you have the hotter, more dominate team that was on tv in a weekday game 3 weeks ago kicking a "top 10" team's ass only as short favorites on the road to what i would consider one of the best mid-major home teams that have looked unimpressive their most recent couple of outings...guess i see "the rat" factor a little differently than you...
