It should be noted that gambling is illegal in the United States, and that these are strictly for fun purposes.

Damn you, Vegas. You go to hell. I had it all planned out. You'd set Mizzou as 3.5 favorites, and then I'd be able to justify staying away from it because, well, Mizzou would be assured to win by a field goal. That's just the way it was going to work, and I was happy with it.
But you had to go and screw it up by putting this sexy, sexy line out there. One point? You know nobody's going to be able to resist it, because it's a 10-2 team against a 7-5 team.
But I know better. Oh, yes I do. Iowa's definitely better than 7-5; Mizzou might be a little worse than 10-2. I know it's a trap. I know it is. It's the trappiest trap that ever trapped since The Great Trap of Nineteen Seventy Trap. And I see it from 60 kilometers away.
You're not going to get me this time, Vegas. No way, no how. That line is a snake in the grass, and I'm simply not going to fall for it.
