    Sorry saw this too late, but if I didn't list it as one of my plays then it didn't make it through filters. Anything I give you would simply be a lean as either didn't make it through algorithm or didn't make it through sims...

    Hey Reap,

    Do you think the BYU line of 50.5 is too high to touch? Seems like 2 / 3 Td's a quarter will be a piece of cake.

    I don't mess with those kind of games my friend but good luck to you if you play it 7 TD's and a FG to ZERO

    Further on that Blaker88 BYU is 7-0 vs FCS foes under Mendenhall and Wagner is 0-3 vs FBS schools having been outscored by 95-6 margin over the last 3 years. Too many points for me even though BYU only has a bye on deck and then sorry San Jose State

    Insight on LA Monroe/Idaho there reaper? I see you have the Vandals +1.5...was leaning ULM myself as a rather strong play.

    My Sims on this game actually have this game within 2 points either way so I will take the home team getting the points in this revenge game

    A couple more tidbits for you my friend. 67% of the betting public are on ULM and 89% on them moneyline. Yet the line has moved the opposite way, tells me someone knows something and it usually isn't the general public

    Have you seen overall success in tailing reverse line movement? Always just looked at it as a myth, honestly.

    Oh no my friend it is a reality I know people who make money this way regularly. These casinos and offshore books aren't being opened and built on the public being right...There are 2 games this week that fall under the rule of 70. I like to look at them closer to game time but they are
    372-MARYLAND+6.5
    456-KC-2.5

    456 was a quarterback issue. Not saying KC doesn't cover, but this wasn't organic.

    I think I found the answer... I'm copying and pasting here.


    Once we identify that the public loves a certain side, we can start tracking the line movement. If the line moves toward the side that 70 percent of bettors are on, it’s as expected. Bookmakers are going to push the line up so they can induce some money on the other side. These kind of standard moves are not worth reacting to when buildingDFS lineups.
    However, when a line moves the opposite way of those 70-plus percent of tickets, we have a reverse line move. Take a step back and think about what is happening there. The books are getting flooded with action on Side A; your friends, the barber, your mom and all the guys on ESPN think Side A is going to cover. But the books are moving the line toward Side B. That should illicit a big eyebrow raise and a “hmmmm.” The red flag is up.
    So why would a line move the opposite way of all the action? It’s really quite simple. Even though tickets are coming in on Side A at a 70 percent or more clip, the money is actually coming in on Side B. And not just any money – the sharpest money in the world. The kind of money that moves a line in the face of heavy public perception. A book may take a thousand $10 bets on Side A, but then they took one $50,000 bet on Side B from a bettor they know to be world-class. So even though the ticket count remains extremely lopsided, the money shows the books that they have to move the line away from what the public likes.
    This is easier to see in an example. During Week 15 of the 2015 season, the 10-3 Packers were playing the 7-6 Bills. The line opened Green Bay -6 and roughly 80 percent of the tickets were on Aaron Rodgers and company. By Sunday morning, the line was down to Green Bay -3.5 – a clear and significant reverse line move that proved the sharp money was flooding in on Kyle Orton’s Bills. When I saw this, I immediately made sure I had zero percent of Rodgers, Eddie Lacy, Randall Cobb and Jordy Nelsonin my DFS lineups.
