    Is that 61% of the bets or 61% of the money?

        That is the % of wagers, but there is more money on VT

            Yes Boise won AT Oregon in a game where they opened up a big lead and then Ducks got two late scores to make game deceptively close. You guys must be thinking of home opener vs. Oregon STATE last year.

                Yup. The real sharps are waiting for the best possible number on boise. a lot of dumb big money came in on vt at most shops. big table game players in for holiday weekend that like to bet fb. they all took vt. limits at one property were raised to accomodate the table game players vt action.

                  OK I see now, First you are right that BSU opened with Oregon last year, the game I was thinking of was the game in Oregon two years ago.

                        I was thinking of previous meeting two years ago.

                              they didn't play TCU on the road, they played them in a bowl in Arizona (a lot of Boise fans were at that game)

                                I've been going back and forth on this game all week. I think the play may be to lay off. 1st week of college and pro is so tough. Everything is based on hype.

                                  VT is the play for me. I think VT will do just fine rushing up the middle of that BSU def line. They will control time of poss and come out with a victory. My thoughts. Can't wait for this game to start!!!!

                                    line play is big difference and boise will need time to adjust after losing their dc.

                                      There's a reason they play the games. I'm with you guys on Boise St. For all you SEC lovers... how 'bout them Jacksonville St. Gamecocks.

                                        Fair enough, but this game is not in Virginia.

Its Joe public pounding away at VT cause they are the home team and Landover is closer to Blacksburg then Boise, and its a TV game so lets cheer for the home team.

                                          Boise +2 -110 Pinnacle
                                          Agreed.

                                            +2 to -2 movements in football are meaningless. How many games end on 1 point differential in football every year. Maybe once every two weeks if you are lucky.

                                                  Yes, the sharps are on Va Tech. 61% of all bets are on Boise as of 2:50 ET. This is some serious RLM.

                                                  And the thing is, I have loved Boise all week and I still don;t see how a transitioning Hokies defense can stop the Broncos. But the sharps have now forced me to pass this game.
                                                  This is a high profile game LT. I don't think the books would make it that easy for us to spot RLM. I think they're pulling a very typical feign right here. Show heavy RLM so that sharps think that V.Tech is the right play, when in reality sharps may not have been on V. Tech in the first place.

                                                  I'm personally thinking Boise here.

                                                    Yes, but the ML moves along with the spread.

                                                    VT ML opened at +119 on Pinnacle, and it's now -121.

                                                      It's in Maryland guy. It will be all Hokie fans. You guys keep trying to talk yourselfs into putting money on Boise in this spot. Look I'm not saying VTech will win this game for sure but I do think the smart bet is Tech.

                                                        Also after all the hype for Boise. All the so called experts saying they will be in the National Championship. You guys don't think VTech wants this game big time. They are the underdogs here.

                                                          This is basically a home game for VT. It will be mostly VT fans. However, I think Boise State is the better team and this is a high profile, lot of public money game. I don't buy into the RLM or late sharps plays. I think Boise State wins this game by a TD.
