    im here to help. although shane is a terrible gambler, like yourself, his point on all the big favorites covering is correct.

    so the lines keep going upwards until this is no longer the case. some just blindly bet trends until proven otherwise. not a bad strategy but its likely too late to join the party. this line has been over adjusted as you can see.

    I actually don't gamble at all. If I did, yes I would be a terrible gambler most likely.

    i know you dont. you never had a beer in college so it was easily deduced.

    the latter part that included you was a joke. not the shane part though. his wife went 12-3 ats in college this week.

    I know of a local book that took LSU games off cause he's down big big bucks lost from LSU covering. Have never heard of this before but he is a local guy.

    Scott Van Pelt talks alot about the pointspreads on his show. For weeks he has been talking about how the sports books have been getting killed this year. The public loves betting favorites, and the favorites continue to cover.

    Agreed. Sagarin has LSU a 25 point favorite. So 21.5 is a reasonable start.

    People have to remember that the goal of the line is to generate 50% of all bets to each side.
