    Greek just moved WVU to +1

    From a -2 open?

    Not a good sign.

    I personally am on WVU i don't like that so many other posters are as well but what can I do... No coincidence this lines up pretty perfectly to be a monster play on WVU all except for the fact that Gibbs is out..

    1.We have TOp 5 team that is hot that is now a dog
    2.WVU just got embarrassed by Nova and is now a favorite
    3. Public has managed to change the favorite in the game

    Believe it or not the fact that this line has changed from west virginia favored to pitt favored is actually good for west virginia... Check it out or start to check it, change of favorite games when the public changes the favorite, the team that was the intial favorite wins almost 70% of the time...

    Like I said the only thing that isn't good is that gibbs is out, but I'm still rolling with WVU

    I'm on WVU pretty big -- just don't like the movement at the moment.

    Yea I here you, in most cases I would agree with you espcially since Greek is probook and I do respect there line moves... If line was different and it moved like say 4 went to 6 i would be more scared, with the change of favorite stuff though I wouldn't be to worried... The only thing you get screwed out of is juice, cause now you could be playing WVU at even odds.

    I cap much differently then others at this site, I don't like to bet against teams that have reported injured player... People think this is the way to go, it is not... The line is adjusted accordingly sucking all the value out of the game... So yes I'm well aware of who gibbs plays for, and I wish he was playing so I could ahve just taken WVU at +140 instead of -110

    big time players injuries are bad for the longterm but most teams can pull together in the short term... agree with gem sports picks, however wvu gets in done tonight at home

    I agree with you as well Louville, I'm on WVU tonight, but I wish Gibbs was playing... Teams pull together in the shorterm because when a star goes down lots of times the ball seems to move better, and players move more... That being said if Pitt was home, I would probably like Pitt, I don't think they will be able to pull it togethr tonight.
