Anyone on UL tonight? At first i liked UCF when the line was at 15.5 but now with it dropping to 13.5 very quickly for no apparent reason it makes me question them. UL had a bad game last week at Rutgers but are at home tonight. The top 2 WRs are questionable for UL and are a game time decision. Im starting to think this might be a very good spot for UL and make up for last weeks showing. But not real sure as of now

Not week 8, but I have a buddy that is willing to give me LSU +9.5 @ Bama. I am really tempted to take it, but I'd rather the extra half point.

What are your thoughts?



Bump since it was on the bottom of the last page.

i is very confused
it is a good sign for UCF that the line is dropping and feel lucky if you got it at 15.5

UCF is by far the best team UL has played this year. The Golden Knights could easily be undefeated and have played a much tougher schedule than Louisville. UCF has played @ Penn State and vs. USCe and split the games, which is much more impressive than anything UL has done.

Also, UL was at home when they didn't cover vs. Rutgers. Rutgers would have been right in the game late if they got any semblance of QB play.

Louisville seems like a very square side tonight (the public is hammering them right now and I bet the line gets to 14 by KO). They are not very impressive, and even though I think they will play well tonight, it won't be enough to cover unless shenanigans ensue.

Love UCF.

Someone please talk me off the ledge....I'm so tempted to put in a pretty big play on Jackson St. -29.5. With all of the craziness following Grambling right now seems like a pretty easy cover.

Not for the Ole Miss game.

How much vig would you pay for that extra half point to bring it up to +10?

ETA: He's offering -133 for +10. Honestly, I'm thinking the +9.5 is enough, but half points worry me always.

I have Louisville -12.5 and UCF +14.5

Looking for 13 or 14

Normally wouldn't take that middle, but I wanted to get off of Louisville, so I couldn't be too upset.

All good

I'm posting in a week 8 thread about a game a month away, so it's on me. We have no betting board, so I figured this was the best place to come.

You'll be able to get close to that number if you just wait until the week of the game. I think it'll bounce around 7-10.

Really?

aTm was like a TD dog and their defense is much worse than LSU's. I just don't see how anyone can swallow double digits points AGAINST LSU. Just doesn't make sense.

Here's my problem with tonight's game, it's pretty much been all over everyone's radar as an upset special....yet here's Vegas giving us over 2 TDs.... I don't know, it gives me pause.

Anyone like WVU or Army straight up on ML?

i think WVU is hot garbage, but Tech is not that good, and really shouldnt be more thna a 1 pt fav, if that.
