Any Guess on the Missouri Spread?

Is it not a consensus of the books that have released a line? Meaning someone had ISU as a 1 pt favorite.
It's the websites projection of the line before they come out. They will then adjust as books release opening line.
i've always been in the camp that you don't mess with vegas when it comes to sports betting, but early season college basketball is known to be one of the few times when vegas info is not at its best and some pros think there's an advantage.
I too would bet the farm on Mizzou if they're only favored by a few pts.

After the first game Vegas will have a self correction. I also think we didn't play that bad against Emporia. At least not as bad as everyone says we did.
I bet the farm on OU this year in football. I have the power to make ISU win.
From Mizzou's exhibition with **ck Kansas, sounds like they're plenty good but susceptible to driving. Wiggy and NWB need to be full speed ahead and to shoot free throws.
"Although both teams struggled defensively and turned the ball over nine times each in the first half, Missouri was much better at converting the turnovers and additional opportunities afforded by offensive rebounds into points. The Tigers had 16 second-chance points compared to the Jayhawks’ four in the first half, giving them just enough of an edge for a 44-40 lead going into the break.
It was all Kansas in the second half, however. The Jayhawks made an offensive adjustment to start driving the ball into the paint more often, and the Tigers’ young big men simply couldn’t handle the aggressiveness. Forty-three percent of the Jayhawks’ points came from within the paint, and when they didn’t score there, they dished the ball out to wide-open shooters on the perimeter for easy 3-point looks."

I haven’t seen a line this intriguing since ISU -2.5 @ Drake in 2011.
