    Why the moves?
    I put 12 units on GaT at 3.5 and I had 2 units parlayed OSU ml GaT -4. The spread continues to move up yet all that action is on the Iowa side from what I can see... so why the rising spread?

    I still like GaTech even at -5.5 I'm thinking about loading the rest down for an end of season double up or bust.

    You got a great number. I would just be happy with what you have. Money is apparently flowing in on Tech because somebody or a group of somebodies is moving the line. Whenever this Reverse Line Movement occurs with the favorite giving more points, its usually good news for people like you that got the early number. However, you usually don't want to bet more on a line that has moved so much and get a much worse number. I got in at -5 yesterday and was very happy to see the line continuing to move.

      Yeah 3.5 tickled me to the point where I want more. I was waiting for my NFL futures to payout to load more but by then the line popped.

            I visit another forum besides SBR, and there is a big split for tonight's game. Everyone here is on Iowa, and everyone there is on GTech. The guy here Guru is definitely HOT! right now and he's on Iowa. But I really like GTech tonight. It's a tough one but in a lot of these bowl games the winner usually is the team that the line move towards. Some examples, Boise last night, line moved +9 to +7. UConn +6 to +3.5, etc a bunch of other trends i noticed.

              wow that was a poor showing by GT. I put the remaining units on GT 2H -3 even, trying to hedge some. Looks like I am done for this football season. Down -22.5 units.
