Penn State +1.5
Eastern Michigan +15

BHG-
Line is almost too far off to me to bet it. Miami (OH) should not be laying that kind of number. Really like Akron in the spot...there is a reason the number is falling off the table. I am gonna lay off b/c I think I have enough sides, but if I had to play it, I am on the dog with the points. 17.5 is still a good number and available now.

I like ECU in tonight's game. Stats are all pointing to Houston, and my original number had Houston by about 12. When line opened at 4 and then was pushed down pretty heavily, I had to go with the flow and take ECU +2. I look for both teams to establish a running game and try to work the pass from that. Home dog in a national tv game has value most of the time.
Once this line dropped below 3, Houston had no value to me. This is a PK game in all reality. 0-4 team is the way to go in a spot like this.
Last week Nebraska was a big road favorite and the line was jumping up from the open. The public followed the line and created a nightmare for the books. This week I don't see the same thing happening. Public likes Houston, but the line is dropping towards ECU and more people are jumping on Cougar High. Vegas will take the cash this time (a very classic set-up). Good luck to you.

Sometimes if you cap a game too large and the line is "off" by a lot...there is a reason Vegas made the line a lot less. In those cases you have to fade yourself and figure why the line is off. I have my own system and it does the job, you;d be surprised how many times I cap a game at X and see the line 10+ pts too low and take the dog. It's all part of the strategies I use.
West Va looking good, should go into the weekend 1-1.
Closing out the card with:
Central Florida -24
Akron/Miami(OH) Under 64
UAB/Memphis Under 49
Oklahoma/Iowa State Under 54.5
Hawaii/Tulsa Under 62.5
USC/Arizona State Under 53
Not as many totals as I expected, lines were sharp this week in both NFL and college.
