Some movement back up from 10.5 to 11 or 12 and then back down to 10.5

What's going on here

Honestly, this was a bad opener. The gap isn't that big. Just based on last year's results.

Ya, I get it. Coogs look too pricy.

This is all a matter of getting good BTCL value. The services are way too late to the party.

Yikes! Rams take 3-0 lead

**Headsterx** · 09-02-23, 06:28 PM

**Headsterx** · 09-02-23, 06:58 PM

Yep. Sometimes the line-move is just wrong.

It is a fair Question, tho? What triggered the line move...other than the Opener being a little fat?

No doubt, gotta question any drastic line movement like this one. I guess we’ll never know what happened. Just happy I was lucky to be on the winning side.

One thing to remember is line movements don't win games. The guys on the headphones telling coaches how to manipulate scores have all the power. When you bet this type of game you are just hoping that you will be at the right side of the fix at the end.

Similar movement happened on Hawaii vs Stanford.. Hawaii was +10 or maybe higher at one point and down to +2.5 by game time. Stanford beat em pretty easily.

Mmm… the plot thickens. This is interesting as both games were PAC-12 v. Mt. West. Wasn’t as drastic but SJS v. OSU went from -16 to -14.5. I predict this game will be like the other two by covering not only the kickoff spread but the opening spread. 😁

I'm guessing that was your typical "overreaction" because of how well and tough Hawaii played Vanderbilt in Week 0. on the road against an SEC school. and the misconception that Stanford was supposed to be horrible this year (and still very well may be)...A combination of these factors is probably what led to the line movement.

Speaking of which, two very "fishy" lines and "trap" games to keep an eye on for next week: Utah (-5.5) at Baylor and Oregon (-6.5) at Texas Tech. Both of these were head scratchers to me. Lines appear to be a tad bit too low considering how well Utah and Oregon looked and how shitty Baylor and Texas Tech played. It's almost like books are begging you and want you to take the Utes and the Ducks.

I’m no expert but both lines shouldn’t be higher but slightly lower (so I can wager them… lol). Seriously though, both Big 12 programs are decent and at home. I think it would be wrong if either Pac12 team is fav higher than a TD. I think both should be closer to -4 or -5 range. Basically, I don’t see anything wrong with these lines.

computer assisted AI teams got rocked in that one.

**Headsterx** · 09-09-23, 02:55 PM

Utah v. Baylor was interesting where if you were an early Utah backer, then you won. If you were game time -7.5, then you lost. I see that game as similar to Oregon (-6.5) v. Texas Tech, won't bet at -7 but anything below a TD, then I'm taking favs.
