Notre dame -34.5 seems excessive, I get they are beating people bad, but the look ahead is vs Ohio st next week and I think they plan more for that and a sluggish first half might be enough for the central side to keep it to 5 tds

Ok, humor me. This is the second condescending comment about teasers with college football. I’m sure that both of you are seasoned, expert gamblers. So why don’t you explain why using an alt line for college football is so amateur/hilarious.

On one end, people say that the variance is too high in college football that teasing isn't worth it.

On the other end, key numbers are key numbers for a reason. I don't see the problem buying a point to get from -7.5 to -6.5.

That seems smart but then again the wounded animal effect is real.

This is why I've never played college football teasers (whereas I've dabbled a little with NFL teasers).

The college game is significantly higher scoring than the NFL, thus, the teased points aren't worth as much for college bets.

Until they are. Last weekend Utah was -7.5, I teased it to -6.5. They won by 7, and that allowed me to win a three leg parlay that was at around +650. If you understand football scoring, it makes perfect sense, in my mind, to tease a point in cases like that.
