I really hope some of you don't bet with real money.
Reverse line movement happens when the total number of bets favors one side but the line moves the opposite way. So let's say 70% of the population is betting on LSU -1. If the line, however, moves towards Alabama, then that means the professionals who are putting down big money are betting on Alabama.
The reason people worry about this trend is because it means almost all the idiots sitting on their couches yapping about JJ are taking LSU but almost every expert is taking Alabama in a big way to move the line away from LSU.
People put way too much into line movements though.
