| GAME THREAD š NCAA / SEC Games of the Week: Labor Day Night~ Ole Miss vs Louisville
- Thread starter bamaledge
- Start date
If I get a chance, absolutely. Trying to get things ready for visitors this weekend while still working. I went and grabbed a bite last night and was pleasantly surprised by the UAB/Jax State game, I was unaware it was going on. UAB had them covered, but once Jax State gets through their paycheck games, they should be pretty good in FCS games this year.
So good to see college football again.

Am I missing something with Ohio State, a title contender, Heisman hype list quarterback, receivers out the wazu, only being favored by 14?

The odds arenāt based on just football. The odds are based on betting and how the bets are trending. If a lot of bets trend one way, the oddsmakers will change the +/- to get more bets the other way. The hope is to have more losers than winners so they can payout the winners and also make money. This is how casinos build those enormous buildings.

I understand that, but I would have imagined it opened a lot higher. I see no difference in the type of game between Alabama and Miami and it's at 19.5. Miami is better than Minnesota I would like to think. I just felt 14 sounded easy.

Easy money? Thatās what they want you to think so that you bet or bet more.

This time of the year funds easy money, every year. Vegas took a bath last weekend.

Probably not saying much but the Golden Gophers are returning 10 players on both sides of the ball, so they do have some experience.

The Golden Gophers return 10 starters on each side of the ball, but there will be several notable position battles this spring.

UCF and Boise State.... should be pretty good game there.
Thursday night game on the road factor. They will be fortunate to win by 14.

If they can't stop the run...it's an under game.

Ucf game should be a fun high scoring game.

I know the exposure is good, but if I'm a head coach, I hate Thursday night games. Too many crazy things seem to happen

If youāre going to do a Thursday game, make it the first of the season. You get to start practice a few days earlier than everybody else, there is no short week, and you also get 10 days before game #2.
You watching? UCF was going in to score. The QB toss it right to the Def. Guy, he ran it all the way back for a TD!
The wise guys look pretty smart on the OSU spread.
