Makes me feel a tad better I guess. :dunno: (ftp://:dunno:) I was thinking it was going to be more like 14 1/2 - 16. I'm betting Nebraska here I think but you'll have to tune into my gambling thread come this Friday to know for certain. It's a very popular thread.. :woot: (ftp://:woot:)

I have to admit I was pretty shocked to see it open at -10. Usually Sagarin's "predictor" model is pretty tight with opening lines, so I really expected an opening line of about -7.

I won't be surprised at all to see a flurry of late action on KSU at such a big number, though.

Post by: Andy on October 04, 2010, 07:36:03 AM: also thought the line would be 7ish. anything over 10 looks pretty good to me. nebraska has historically had a strong gambling following when it comes to line moves so not shocked its moved that way. cornholers love to bet on their team, even blindly. Nebr is 1-3 ATS this yr. KSU is 2-2.

thats true sometimes the short weeks hurts the higher rated team. but nebraska was off like we were so im not sure if it will have much of an effect.

Not so fast, my friend... The 'public' will push this number up this week, and the "sharps" will hammer the inflated line just before kickoff. And, I can't see anyway in hell that it'll get over 14. That is a HUGE half point...
