Has anyone figured out how A&M can be a 3 point dog to Arkansas?

Place that bet on A&M if you can actually place it, which I doubt you can.

It looks to me that those 3 points reflect only Arkansas' home field advantage, and there is not actually any line.

An update, a buddy of mine said there is some question to whether or not Arkansas' starting qb can play and there is effectively no line right now.

If I would have seen Arky -3 I would have jumped on that one QUICKLY! This will get ugly. Arky can't throw the ball with their starter, much less the backup.

Point spread aside, TAMU has played its game of the year already; they will not repeat their performance against us with any team left on their schedule.

Shouldn't that be in blue?
I was beginning to think that Arkansas was not that formidable this year. What am I missing? Granted, A&M's defense is certainly suspect, but there is nothing suspect about their offense.
So, what gives?

Yea, I saw this too. I am not a betting man but if Vegas puts this line as TAMU favored at Arky by anything less that 2 TDs then I'm taking the title to my house to the nearest bookie and going with the aggies.

Every place I have seen it is "off the board" because of the Arkansas QB situation. Coach B has a lot of work to do in Hogland this week to keep them from quitting on him, is my guess.

If you don't play defense, you're susceptible to anyone. What Arky does best is run the ball. What A&M does worst is stop the run. Will JM and co. be able to outscore Arky? Probably, but TAMU is not like Bama. Our offense can be out of sync or just play poorly and we still win by 25. A&M...not so much.

Best case for them at this point is to finish out 2-6 on remaining games. Honestly I'm really not sure there are 2 wins to be had there.

This all started with a typo by ESPN. It was supposed to have been -13. Of course, the ESPN is not a true "line," anyway, since you can't place a bet with them. I don't expect a real line until and unless the Hog QB question is resolved - which may mean there won't be a bettable line before the game...
