    You want a decent play for the line offered? Go ahead and take Nebraska +12 points, despite the injury to Shields.

    I still think the line was worth a shot as there seemed to be a bit of market overreaction in this one.

    I have a high level of disgust with the Tigers of LSU, you penetrates. Simmons sucks, drafted in the 107th round and will play in the Saharan Desert Basketball League.

    I noticed a quick downward shift to -4 on Elon. Sharpies are seeing something on Drexel. I would look for some surprising strength from Drexel at +4

    I like lock threads that I don't have interest on because later on posters come on to fight and complain about how buried they are. Makes me happy.

    This is where trying to read lines and line movement can fall short. I was just posting about this in the think tank. If you do not create your own line that more reflects the final score than the oddsmakers and bookmakers, you can get eaten alive by the books.

    Curiously, do you make your own line? Why do you think this line dropping from 4.5 to 4 is "sharpies" seeing something? Do you think, because of percentages being reported, that this is some kind of reverse line movement? How do you know the books aren't fooling you here? Do you think the books could try to fool players? Do you think the markets are efficient?

    I ask these questions not to troll you, Biff, but to illustrate a point for the forum. You must have some kind of yardstick to measure by to even begin to determine the cause of a line shift.

    And, it could be argued, that the move from 4.5 to 4, in this case, is hardly a shift at all.

    These markets are more dynamic than many believe and what appears to be is often not what it seems.
