Seems about right to me, what do you think?

I would be happy to only lose by 13.5 to Auburn.  I think we'll get rolled though, hope I'm wrong.

It's a nice moneyline play for K-State, but I'll wait to see if I can find +400.    I do like the over as well (44/45).

That'll be a tough game...Auburn's a good team, as we discovered next year. If you can control the ground game against them, and run the ball effectively and stop their ability to do so, you have a good chance to win. I didn't think much of their passing game.

Doesn't that apply to about every football game ever played?

You just found out last year that Auburn is a "good" team?  Where you been?

Auburn has one of the best records in the NCAA in the last 5 years, welcome to reality. I suppose Husker fans have their heads to far up their....to know what goes on outside of Lincoln, NE.

13.5 seems right. I just hope we can score more than 13.5.

Seems a little high.  I would have guessed 9.5.

Our offense is gonna be pretty bad.  I'm hoping Prince plays this game like we did the OSU game last year.  A very heavy dose of LP with a bit of JJ and mix in a deep pass from Freeman every once in a while to keep the safeties and linebackers from completely focusing on the run.  Put the ball in our playmakers hands(Leon   and JJ  :love:)and let them do the rest.  Maybe mix in a few plays for our speedy(Woods, Pierce?) players like a reverse hand off.  (Remember the Yamon play at Colorado last year?  Freeman is a great blocker  :-X )

As for stopping their offense..Our secondary is the best it's been since 02 IMO.  Let the corners do their job and use everyone else to stop Auburn from running.  I don't think our D-line is going to be able to stop them whatsoever, so we'll need a very heavy dose of assistance from LBs/safeties to force them to go against our secondary or punt.

I rest my case.
