Only Two Touchdowns?

Most of the official lines for the first week of college football came out yesterday. I must admit I was more than a little surprised to find Tulsa a mere -14 over Tulane in New Orleans.

Last year the Golden Hurricane smoked the Wave- handily covering a -28.5. Tulsa got and then covered the hook too- very embarrassing.

I'm not sure people's expectations about the two clubs are much different now than late last November. Most folks are still picking Tulane last in a bad League- and Tulsa figures to be top division team at least. I figured it to be north of three scores at least… well, that sort of eliminates the suspense of the first Prediction Thursday here.
