Re: Early line....
Now up to 28th, 12.4 in sp+. Ucf is back at 36th, 10.3. That would make the expected line closer to 4.5 than the 2.5 that's out there.
Cinci is still ahead of us at 24th, 13.1 but that's more residual from their high starting point.

We are 10-2 v the spread in 2022 and Vegas gives us another Christmas present.
The bet of the year?

Re: Early line....
The money line is UCF +140.
I'm holding a Tulane AAC champion ticket at +2800.
The smart play is to hedge with the UCF moneyline, but it just feels wrong.

Re: Early line....
Good point. As fans we should never feel good because we bet against Tulane (and won ) we should feel bad when tulane loses, period. 1-0

Re: Early line....
You could hedge to half of the Tulane profit. I think that's acceptable. Still pulling for Tulane to win and if UCF wins give half of the ill gotten profits to The Green Wave collective.LawGreenie wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 9:26 am The money line is UCF +140.

Re: Early line....
Could this be due to Fritz' staying? I asked about how that might effect odds yesterday. Told not so much.

The difference between winning or losing is what you do with those hours.

Re: Early line....
Likely due to Plumlee not playing at all or being limited if he does play.
We deserve so much better

Re: Early line....
Sometimes a qb out is worth a lot more than half point, but the drop-off between plumlee and Keene isn't that stark even though their games are very different. This could also be normal line movement. A shift of 1.5 points isn't unusual, even across a key number. If it gets to 4.5 or 5 then something is up
Re: Early line....
I have it on pretty good authority that the officiating crew from the last game with UCF will not be there for this one. That won’t sway Vegas but it will make a difference.

Re: Early line....
That is very good news. They were a bunch of amateurs.
I would take the crew from the Cincy game.

Re: Early line....
we've never bet on sports and don't plan to really start now, but we got one of those promos from the new online sports betting where if you win your first 5 dollar bet you get 6 $25 free bets, so my wife and I bet against each other on MNF, and are using the free bets for the football conference championship games. They then gave us a free bet for a live-game, and against my suggestion, she bet on The Citadel in honor of Ed Conroy going back there, and Ed Conroy won us 25 bucks by a single free throw. Now I have to live with being beholden to Ed Conroy the rest of my life? Betting is not fun

I recommend the Tulane NIL charity.
