    public was 54-46 on bama so most likely it was sharps or it was some fake line movement even tho that is a lot

    Msu was definetly suspect coming in and they showed it. Bama might be best 3 loss team ever.

    once the game went down from 11 to 9.5, the line movement was total head fake.

    Numbers 9.5 to 7.5 are all the same.

    I have just spoken with a major book manager in Vegas and he said they lost a ton from Bama game but they made it all back and more on Northwestern covering.

    He said it's all good. They are still in business.

    Agreed. That 9.5 to 7.5 range is the 'dead' zone. Notice shops like Legends will regularly hang numbers in this range and take more on the money side like -125 or -130.
