Thanks much Sam...we have been waiting on these GN lines.

I like to compare early opening lines to those posted by the Golden Nugget. Offers some interesting comparisons.

Example: Early lines have Vandy -2.5 on Ole Miss. GN has Ole Miss -4. I've thought Ole Miss was the pick from the very beginning, especially if I can buy to +3.

Appreciate the post Bud!

BD, opening week I would lean these three if I had to play today from your list.

Auburn -12 vs Washington St. (Home)
Boise St. +2 vs Washington (Road)
Clemson +3.5 vs Georgia (Home)

* Auburn will surprise some people this year. The Alabama late August heat/humidity is murder if not use to it.
* I have gone against Boise State in the opener the past two years...not again.
* Toss up game to me...Clemson at home and more than a field goal gets my attention.

Auburn is a strong wager IMO. Wazzu is 0-7 ATS in their first lined away game in the past 7 years. Auburn is going to be out for blood after their terrible season last year. We do not understand all the love for Georgia. They are a favorite AT Clemson, a team that went 2-1 against the SEC (Auburn, South Carolina, and LSU) last season. Boise State just beats Pac 12 teams.

Clemson was -3.5 not too long ago. If you took UGA +3.5 earlier, that would be a great middle.

Auburn shouldn't be considered a big victory imo. If you, me, or anyone else in the country but Les Miles calls the plays in the 4th quarter, LSU wins that game. A win is a win tho.

All of my picks are on my spread sheet.

[daneblazer]

Alabama, Ohio State, Louisville, Oregon, Georgia only teams projected to be favored in every game

[WorkHorse]

Thanks Dane....what is the sourse for your lines sir?

I'd like to make a copy.

[daneblazer]

I saw that in an article from the Ajc.com ...I think they got them from the golden nugget

[BigdaddyQH]

You can get updated lines now from the Nugget.

[daneblazer]

Vandy still -2.5 on 5dimes (+4 at Nugget)

UGA +2.5 (-3.5 at Nug)

Colorado -1 (+3.5 Nug)

Penn State -3.5 (-6.5 at Nug)

Some decent middle opportunities if you had the option to place a bet there

[BigdaddyQH]

5Dimes has a very low max wager. I believe it is $100.00. Not too many people are going to try to go to Vegas and get a middle for just $100.00
