    So. Miss / Denver line????
    So Miss -4.5 at home against Denver

    No disrespect to Denver, they have played a tougher schedule than So. Miss, 1-3 losses to Iona, Cal, and Colorado State, beating AMCC (whoever that is).

    So. Miss is perfect at 5-0, albeit a real soft 5-0, beating 4 cream puffs along the way.

    But on paper, at So. Miss, Eagles should win this by double digits.
    I've spent the last 15 minutes or so looking at this game, and concluded I must be missing something, because this line should (IMO) be -8.5 or 9.

    Am I missing something here?

    Everyone I've come across (including myself) is on So. Miss. Either they've gotten us to take the bait, or they didn't put enough time into the line, or perception is So. Miss. is overrated and people are going to bet against them, who knows, from what I saw So. Miss. should win so I put my $ on them.

      Sounds like you answered your own question. Denver has been competitive vs. a good schedule, Southern Miss has beaten nobody. Plus Denver is always an appealing dog because they play so slow, and USM has turned the ball over a LOT, which becomes more magnified in a game with limited possessions.

        Yea, but Denver is an abortion of a team on the road. Check their history for the past three years.

        Denver is a team you only bet @ home. I remember three years ago when they covered every home game. The dimensions of their court are the same, but its feels different when you are a mile high.

          I agree with LT, Denver is a great dog and they've been inflated all year up until now IMO

            I'm on Denver there was 2 points of RLM it opened at -6 went down to -4 even with over 78% on miss! Books looking like they are begging for more action on so miss. So I'm on Denver. Vegas doesn't do this on accident an normally when I find this line movement it is a trap BOL

              Why is there no total posted for this game?

              Under seems like it'd be a monster play.

                  I'm taking the bait on the So Miss First Half line. If Denver ends up covering, this was a trap game than a mofo.

                    Denver has zero points seven minutes into the game. Brutal.

                                  Now I know why.

                                  Was a total ever posted?
