    I love Texas this week, I am on board with you 100% on that one. However I do not like maimi -6.5. I love UNC +6.5 in that one. The line seems very small and I think the oddsmakers are up to something in this one.

    What makes you lean towards UNC so much in this game? I'm not questioning your pick, just wanting to see your thinking. I really don't have a good explanation for the Miami pick, just going on "feel" more than anything.

    I will glady explain my logic wolfpack. I just do not understand how a big time program, 4 and 1 team as in Maimi is only favored by 6.5 against a 1 and 4 UNC team. It's early but the public has pounded Maimi in this one ( at various online books I have seen over 90% taking the U) but the spread has dropped. It started as Maimi -7.5. I just think the oddsmakers are playin the public in this game and know something. GL

    Thanks man. That makes sense. I go to NC State and I probably base my "feel" for the Miami pick because i can't stand UNC. Probably not the best thing to do. haha. Best of luck to you this weekend.

    Looks good. I'm with you on Missouri and Bama. Slight lean to UNC, but I can't play it at the current line.

    Good luck this weekend.
