Title: Accuscore prediction
Post by: jester66 on January 23, 2008, 08:32:42 AM: I was checking out CBS sportsline to see if they had a prediction. I noticed that they are 'Powered by Accuscore'. So I go over to their site and get to this page:
http://accuscore.com/option,com_acc_ncaab_game_preview/Itemid,/game_id,1760/tab,stats/

While it looks like a pickem game to me, I wonder about how ACCU they could be when they have Bennett and Clemente on our active roster.

My work blocks the odds. Does anyone have a line for tonight?

KSU -4.5

I heard it opened yesterday/last night at -3 however. I haven't confirmed that though...

I believe that they got Clemente and Stewart confused. Beasleys stats are not correct either, he's averaging 24.6 per game, and CBS has him at 18.6 per game. Rebounds are not correct either.

What the hell is the "official line"? Been "relatively involved" with sports wagering for a while now, and have never heard of the "official line".

FWIW, the line currently is at KSU -3.5 at ALL of the offshore books, and half the vegas shops have -4 and half of 'em are hanging -3.5 right now... (as of 11:35am central time)

For me, the "official line" was always the line on the white board at the Imperial Palace that the old fat dude with the gold chain would write up there. When they tore down the Palace, they tore down the "official line" along with it.

I can accept that answer.
