Books have taken a serious stance on Michigan this week

[t-wizzle]

Michigan up to -10 over Wisconsin. We’ve heard about the talent they have but this is still a team that has come up small in big games for several years now. Books clearly telling us they think Michigan comes through in a big way Saturday night. I expect a convincing win for the Wolverines.

[cwnotorious]

Too many points imo, I think wisc running game will be a big factor in this game. Bol T-wizz

Michigan blow out

[pet2150]

I will pass

[danshan11]

Wisconsin multiple injuries and a suspension , Michigan should be 6 or so without all that, so i think 10 is probably fair and probably will creep up a hair more

never understood "books taking a stance" doesnt make sense to me. VR said yesterday people were betting on michigan the sharps and all

What's your fair line?

[hubie69]

Seems like the whole world is on Michigan this week. I'll wait until game time and take Wisconsin. I might be wrong but my numbers like Wisconsin. GL on your bets.

What's your fair line?

6.5-7 but as someone said wisky has quite a bit of injuries. I see "not clear" as the status of those players suiting up.

[KRIT]

You guys really trust Hornibrook on the road. Gary should be back for Michigan. If you need anymore convincing, Landers is on Wisky. They are a square dog.

then get a less shitty source

[jjgold]

take the number

Mich not that good

[t-wizzle]

I realize the teams aren’t exactly the same this year, but for reference, Wisconsin was a 7 point favorite at home last year in this matchup. A game they won 24-10.

We’re talking about a 17 point difference here in the point spread. Adjust roughly 6 points for home field and it’s an 11 point difference. Again, I know Michigan has a better quarterback this year and the teams aren’t exactly the same but that’s still a huge change. Books have shown loads of confidence in Michigan all year. This isn’t new.

[KRIT]

Michigan stumbled early, it's about what have you done for me lately. No doubt Michigan is one of the ten best teams in the country. I think you can make the argument that the only teams that are for sure better than Michigan are Bama, Georgia and Ohio St.

yea Michigan is rated too high

[DOM_Toretto]

Michigan has the largest living alumni base and a wealthy one at that. Books always get loads of Michigan money regardless of spread so they often inflate it in search of balance.

And the #5 team in the country that beat them, and led 21-3 at one point, isn't on your list?

also penn state, oklahoma, washington(prob better) notre dame, clemson(prob better), west virginia(good chance theyre better).

[PaperTrail07]

all over +10...

[2daBank]

I agree but Waited too long to play them. Silly to lay -10 now when you could have gotten much better line earlier in the week. I just can’t play games after losing so much value even if I think it still the right side. Gl wizzle

[PaperTrail07]

also penn state-DEPENDS WHERE, oklahoma, washington(prob) notre dame, clemson(prob), west virginia(good chance). Id take each of those over MIch. without much hesitating.

I doubt I’d lay the 10 but still not sure. Not much value but I also think there’s a good chance they win by 2+ tds.

[danshan11]

224-241-10 (0.50, 48.2%)

I dont see the big money theory here

[2daBank]

I doubt I’d lay the 10 but still not sure. Not much value but I also think there’s a good chance they win by 2+ tds.

I get that feeling as well. Just a situation where if ya didn’t jump on them early in week it tough to pull trigger at this point. I know I’ve seen a ton of Wisconsin love all over even when it was lower so maybe come 2marro enough dog money will come in to drop it back down a little?

[jtoler]

mich. has mich. state next week and good chance state loses to penn state this week and I think they will play mich. close or may win next week. but dont know whats wrong with mich. state. seen them a little have some talent of course, maybe d and o line isnt all that good. qb isnt great but he's at least decent. hard to tell lines for conference matches ahead of time a lot of the time especially when the fav is the road team, but if that line is touching mich -6 I gotta look at mich. st. in that one.

[t-wizzle]

Easy win here.
