re: Is Rice and betting the under a safe bet?

Honestly, probably not a safe bet.

Unlike a lot of blowout, where one team gets ahead, puts in the backups and the other team scores garbage points to make it close, this game will see A&M likely building a modest first half lead only to see the Heisman winner come in and build on that in the second half when Rice is getting worn down.

Sumlin's personality leads me to believe he might leave Manziel in most of the half and let him anger frick the Owls as long as possible.
