    Heavy steam on Rice
    do you feel this is mainly due to fading MTSU? i know Rice likes to play physical on offense and primarily run the ball, but they lost their top 2 backs from last season. also, their starting QB this year didn't have great numbers last year. they do have 2 solid WR's and return some experience on defense but their DL doesn't generate much pass rush

    with the line up to -4 it's making me feel uneasy about backing them in their 1st game no matter how bad MTSU's defense is (and boy is it bad)

              I like the steam on Rice, but I hope that I don't get fried.

                MTSU has played a bunch of games while this is the first for Rice
                Watch out
                MTSU is putrid but is Rice good?
                Advantage here is for MTSU having got some experience this year

                  Teams who are making their debut vs teams who have already played are 18-6 so far this year.

                    Took MTSU +110 at the open.

                    All that steamed rice coming out hot as the line got away from us.

                      I'm on Rice but so is everyone else. You're probably right.

                        Line is pulling back a bit but this MTSU spread is still a pretty strong contrarian look as well.

                        Some of those moves represent strong RLM, in my opinion, and when I say that I am specific book wise about the information I have compiled.

                        It appears I won't beat the closer here but if MTSU does play with them then I anticipate the moneyline to be in question, not the spread.

                        At this stage, MTSU moneyline shows contrarian value, if that's your pleasure.

                        Good Luck whatever your bet.

                          You said it, heavy pressure on the Rice moneyline and it's being mitigated to some degree by pressure on the MTSU moneyline, which constrains the spread rise.

                          If the books get too high of a spread but too low of a moneyline, they can put themselves in a SuperBowl type situation and add risk by skewing the market. Traders will pounce. For this game, though, I doubt the volume is too high across the board.

                                Rice is the worst team in the country.
