Yeah I am actually leaning more towards the ML on NC State rather than the spread.

I like it even if they don't play in bad weather.

What changed your opinion from a few days ago ChemE? I asked and you said you wouldn't bet an aTm total until you saw what Sumlin had installed.

This line has climbed two points in the past few days.

Any idea where it should plateau?

Updated Texas aTm depth chart (even more youth in starting positions than previously thought) and distractions from Isaac pushed me to the under. Also some comments from Sumlin about trying out some heavier sets in preparation for SEC play. He's pulling an Urban before he is forced to it sounds like.

Finally pulled the trigger at (-14). Michigan is thin on both sides of the line. Not good for a Big 10 team going up against the reigning national champ from the SEC.

I also grabbed the Tech/aTm under when it was at 62

Now the only real thing to worry about for my 4 teamer is the over on Bama/Mich.

Big 10

Sorry, this hurricane has got me all confused haha

On a side note, it is being reported that Michigan running back Fitzgerald Toussaint will be the starter for the Bama game. (Yet to be confirmed by Brady Hoke)

The line for Bama moved back down to (-13.5) per 5dimes.

I saw 5dimes had it a -59 and oddsmaker had it at 61 so I jumped on oddsmaker just for the sheer 2 point value

Nice, love when line shopping turns up that big of a margin. I really wish I'd have gotten a Pinny account when I had the opportunity. Fail.

Right after I placed the bet, I lost power. 30 minutes later when power returned, I looked to make sure my bet was recorded and it was. Went back to the CFB lines and saw the line already to 59.5
