    Explain the Denver line to me


    I think Denver is being overvalued based on their upset of MTSU last night. Did you know they shot 91 percent in the first 13-plus minutes of the second half? That ain't gonna happen again.

    I think NT wins comfortably here. Why it opened at -1 and is now a pick is perplexing to me.

    Same thing happened last night! the line didn't make sense people were jumping all over MTSU but the line was holding or moving for Denver. Either Sharpes are all over Denver or Vegas wants people away from them.

    Who would have thought Denver wins 2 in a row away from home never mind 3.

    Something is not right if Denver wins tonight handly something went down in a big way. Its interesting HOW shitty they were on road this year for a good team and now look like that never happened... lol

      The teams Denver has played were on the road as well. All teams generally play better at home than on the road. It's not just a Denver thing, I'm sure.

          Denver played N Texas tough on the road this year. It was a scrappy game throughout with N Texas winning by 5 in the end. I know this because I was at the game. I had N Texas to blow them out. didnt happen. tough call on this one.

                even if this is a trap game im taking it..I could live with myself losing 2 units if Denver pulls something outta their and does pull the upset (well in this case its PK) so if Denver "wins" this game

                          leaning North Texas, but the line movement and Denver suddenly showing up away from home has me spooked.

                              i've thought long and hard about it, and i'm on N Texas. not making it a big play as originally planned, but 3u. when you look at their Pom FT numbers, it's difficult to ignore that Denver will basically spot N Texas 12 points on FTs. if Mean Green can hold Denver to an average or worse night from behind the arc, they should roll. also helps that the line movement has sorted itself out a bit.

                              BOL to all tonight.

                                That's what I'm thinking. If NoTexas didn't suck last night I would give Denver a better shot. I think after last night's near debacle that the Mean Green will come out ready to play from the tip, so I will take them since they are the better team (even though Denver may be playing better).

                                  den has me a little confused of coarse it could be because i just took for granted to fade them away to the point its one of a few teams ive not really seen very much of...id think NTex handles them tonight but i may just pass because i dont wanna be on Ntex with everyone and be left scratching my head

                                      agreed ... my head says North Texas just like the public ... but I don't know how I can justify taking them going against the line movement when it has burned me so often!!

                                      The more I look at it though .. Denver is the play ..Ahh haha

                                            Nevermind, I checked. So I guess Denver and UNT were playing at different gyms in Hot Springs because their two games were concurrent.....interesting.

                                              I agree. I have seen denver play a few times on FCS and they are a terrible team. I am NT here!
