oh I see. that makes sense. Are there any general rules for doing this? (Kinda like the standard teaser rule with crossing key numbers)

WVU at -31.5 and I got them at -21.5. At what point should I try to hit middle with this game in your opinion.
No rules. Just a large enough window to make it worthwhile because after all, you are throwing value away for the risk of high reward. For example, you get a line at 21.5, and move to 31.5. You have an INSANE amount of value in your current line. With that being said, there is a large window of opportunity in which you have a legit shot of winning both.

Yea that too- middle bets really aren't worth it if you didn't bet a lot on the original line

1.5 units. I'll just keep my original bets. Doing stuff like that usually yields inner financial pain

i went to 5 dimes a little after 5 pm and the WVU line was at -24. as I was placing my bet it jumped to - 26 still got in on it at -26 for 1 unit. i figure it'll probably end up around -35.

I might put some on JMU if that line keeps moving up.

Only bets I've laid this week are Penn State -5.5 and Texas -10.5 Thinking about doubling up on UT. Anyone see any reason why not to really like UT?

Wish I could have caught WVU at -21.5

I'm already on Penn State and I love the UT line. I'm just waiting to see if it somehow falls to -10. Will bet it regardless.

I haven't had a chance to watch either one yet, but it seems like Texas has gotten off to slow starts on offense the first two weeks. I believe the total was around 47 or so the last time I saw it. That may be a lot of points to lay on the road in a game that people seem to think will be relatively low scoring.

I hope you didn't take the UNC ML ... looks like Gio Bernard might be out Saturday. If he is, they don't stand much of a chance.
