    The numbers appear to match for the most part. I think it was only the games involving an FCS school that weren't widely available to bet that had no %s yesterday. All the FBS matchups appear to be there. Also, VI is my favourite for the complete, timestamped line histories, which I think tells more than the public numbers.

    i use sbr for timestamps on line moves....i am comfortable navigating the layout.

    its nice to also know who the public is on in conjunction with looking at the line history...under col/col st appears to be a smart play

    True. I sometimes feel like I get too distracted by line movement and public numbers though. When I really just focus on being on the right side of a game, I feel like my performance is much more consistent. The more I get thinking about public numbers, the more I tend to second guess myself, and I'd rather have my handicapping be the more decisive factor in picking games than market analysis.

    As for the timestamps, I sometimes find that the SBR line history is incomplete, with the VI one being more detailed. At least it used to be. I'm not sure about it's current state.

    Teaser protection. They were expecting to take teasers with the Broncos bought down to under a FG so they left the line at 9.5. I guess they've relaxed a bit or were taking too much BAL money.

    This. As far as SU going from 9.5 to 7.5, pretty much dead numbers so basically irrelevant (8, 8.5, 9).

    Not really sure how I feel about this game though. I think giving Peyton Manning homefield advantage and 7 months to stew over a playoff loss makes betting the Ravens unsavory.

    People see the same basic line that was offered last season and forget just how perfectly stars were aligned for the Ravens in their playoff run. Flacco played the games of his career and Boldin & Pitta were unstoppable in the postseason, combining for 36 catches, 543 yards, & 7 TDs. Both gone from the team now. It took a 70 yard bomb to tie the Denver game with 30 seconds left. That was a miracle for the Ravens...

    I just feel like I should be laying the -7 (-115) right now with confidence, trusting in Peyton/Fox to start the season off with an authoritative win.

    100% agreed with this was just discussing this with a couple buddies earlier today. I teased it twice instead of laying the 7, I dunno why Im not just laying the 7....also wasnt it 2 bombs in the last 5 min or so too? also I remeber 2 questionable challenges that went in favor of the ravens that shouldnt have in my opinion but I had money on denver in that game so.....glad champ baileys out because hes the one who got burned by torrey smith

    Not just Bailey out they're missing other defensive starters too and of course their best pass rusher from last year. Denver has a ton of problems on D.

    Nothing, probably. WF vs BC on a Friday night is the definition of a degen game. Two pathetic teams vying to see who can be slightly less terrible for a night. UCF is the only team playing tonight that I respect and laying -24 on the road isn't appealing. Good slate tomorrow, so no need to mess with the games tonight.

    Actually, I'm going to watch the start of the game and if BC scores first, I'm going to take the improved line on Wake. WF probably wins this game outright. If WF scores first, I'll just let it go.

    It's going to be an interesting game. I won't be excited about the Vols until I see Josh Dobbs under center. I love what Petrino does for WKU though.
