Rhode Island at Central Michigan
Thu 8/31 223 Rhode Island +27 -120 o56½ -120
7:00PM 224 Central Michigan -27 -120 u56½ -120

Over looks good.

HK-"when you need to know"

You're still doing this after you were such an embarrassment last year?

27 points? That's it? Taking CM sounds juicy, real juicy to me........I'll predict something like 50-14.

You two should save your pennies,maybe afford to buy a sodie pop at a free event?
Softball intra squad scrimmage or something like that!!
FB is for high rollers.

From a pure entertainment standpoint, these are my favorite threads on the board. Pure hilarity.

Clearly, just look at how well supported our program is. Only the finest facilities and the biggest investment in staff... Our "high rollers" really are bringing a ton to the table.

There is simply little pressure to win here at 'ol State U......totally unlike basketball.

So the program wallows in [less than] mediocrity...and not many really care.

If Fleming and team don't show measurable improvement this season, he is likely to be gone....and replaced by what exactly?

Another staff on the cheap....hoping against hope [again] they can strike lightning in a bottle and make something out of nothing.

It's been made clear that no major investment in facilities, and probably staff too, will be made in this program for several years to come.

Let's gooo! lol I'm not expecting a win but I'm glad that football season is happening.

Rhody Mob-spot on!!
Just got my season tix,can't wait!
The complainers don't go to any games for any sport.

If I see "juicy, real juicy" typed once in any of these spread threads....

I don't even know what this means but it made me laugh.

Same here. I always look forward to the Football Threads - always a hoot.

Meanwhile I'd love to see an upset Thursday Night !!!!

URI is now up to a 34 point underdog. Vegas has roared indeed.

Looks like the line opened at -31 not -27 so the line shift while large isn't as staggering as a 7 point shift.

That said, clearly some in Vegas thought it was juicy, very juicy, for the line to shift even 3 points.

Exactly...because when Vegas has dozens of dollars at stake...it's important they get it right....

No matter what the spread is in the dessert, I'm excited to how the Rams react to a real solid opponent. Especially our transfers. Go RAMS!

STC and Rhowdy-you should stay away from gambling. It costs $$ like hoops,FB tickets, and subsequent trips to Vegas,NYC and Mohegan Sun to watch!!
Too bad they cancelled gymnastics-bet you got your money's worth there!!

Agreed....maybe let's try to keep Rhody football in a single thread or section? I really don't want to miss any of these...

I only gamble when I'm in Vegas (which is not often), I more so get great enjoyment out of these silly threads.

I was in Vegas for March Madness this past year and made some solid money on Rhody against Creighton and covering against Oregon. Hopefully can do it again this coming year!

Anyways, back on topic, -34 is a lot of points but I'm not going to underestimate URI's level of suck against a D1 team so I would go Central Michigan -34.

It costs money when you suck at it, and you've proven time and again how clueless you are

Whoa Rhowdy-take it easy,the game is on ESPN 3 tonight. Which is free-right???

lol settle down...

New over/under prop....
That point in the football game where it will no longer be 'interesting enough' to click back and forth from Yankees/Red Sox.
Maybe...2nd qtr, 12:00 left to play?

ESPN3
First Game of the URI Rams football season
Rhody vs Central Michigan - $400,000 Payday for our Football Program

Priceless

Let's go Rhody! Win it outright for Hal!!!

Do you think they'll spend the whole $400K this year?

Sure why not

Harris needs to be pulled. From this point on in game,QB play is on Fleming.

Fleming will lose his job if these 2 transfers are a bust. His inability to find a competent QB is appalling.

The rest of the team isn't half bad.

they made some plays....but how can you let a guy throw 6 picks? and if not for a couple CMU drops...coulda been 8.... He must have no faith in the other guy at all....
