    When will the Lines Start Moving

    Not much movement in the CFB games lately, will there be an influx of new action starting the Monday before the games take place or will it be later in the week? Couldnt remember the action on the first week

    There will be line changes the week of the games. Some early, then some more on the day of the games.

    There was also a lot of line movement the three days following the release of the current lines at some books.

    Especially when injuries, starting position players, and even roster changes are possible...

    Yeah, I don't get betting football games weeks before they are played. I saw a post here about someone loving VT (JJ?)....I wonder if he even knows their leading returning rusher (and practically only experienced RB) tore his ACL last week.

    wait until pavy's bankroll is gone in week 3...that's always fun to watch...




    I think about 10 days before the game we will see some more line moves...week one games are tough...my advice is to tread lightly...

    Good question Powell. Good thread. This should get more interesting as the games approach.

    the illini line i will guess will close at 7-9ish and hopefully can get it below that i think, reports from my boy at camp says WATCH OUT FOR THIS TEAM BABY, the d is ok but the O looks INCREDIBLE. gotta be dropping cause d is still laggin a bit and will prob be out problem again this year plus mizzou's rb is back and he ran over us and suppsoedly been lookin real good in practice as well from what i hear. getting us at -3 right when it cam out woulda been $$$$$

    SOLID DUDE, hopefully this week back at the dump will lead to some good information for the ARCH RIVALRY game in a few weeks. maybe lead us to some solid prop plays


    have u made any season total win bets? im got Illinois over 7.5 and but after more looking into it, and even with theire losses on D, i like the demon deacons to go over 7.5 as well at +180, but on bodog it says prop is closed for betting???

    no prop bets yet, taking both of those teams at -6.5 was a great deal to me. Unless it drops 3-4 points, I wont be too disapointed. Big jump from 7 to 6.5

    I was hoping my Over 76.5 Wins Future would be clinched by Labor Day. I may be sweating this out now. A total collapse is not out of the question. I still think my Future will hit though.

    that illinois line should shit a lil more i think espcially now that its been confirmed that MIAMI THOMAS IS OUT FOR THE YEAR with a torn knee, same bs as last year w this kid, and now our DB crew is even thinner than it was before, plus dre hicks is totally f'd up from last year still from a hit and is reportedly scared to almost play cause he should be paralyzed but wasnt....

    Nevada can score, but, they wont every time they get the ball. On the other hand ND might score on NV's piss poor defense everytime they touch the ****ing pigskin...

    I like Navy on that teaser, but, I would wait till the actual line moves to 24 before gametime.
