I thought Hoosiers by 6.5 last week was free money - but I was smart enough to stay clear of my bookie
When a line looks 'way too high/low' I assume they know something I don't...and steer clear.

The line is only 6.5 so it's not like anyone is expecting a blowout.  A 1 TD game would be pretty damn close, and it seems to be what is expected.


There's no way Texas is that bad.

maybe it says a lot about what Vegas thinks of Arch and that Texas offense? 

it's going to be a really low scoring game, I think. Texas has an elite defense and Florida has a really good defense as well with athletes all over that side of the ball. For Texas on offense it's fair to say that Arch has been very underwhelming and the Texas offense has been disappointing relative to Arch's pre-season hype. And as far as Florida goes on offense- well that is like a JV high school offense that is a comedy of errors just waiting to happen.

For sure, the Texas offense has been incredibly disappointing so far this season.  The oddsmakers, and the bettors, don't trust it.  I don't either.

Penn State -24.5 vs UCLA and Texas -6.5 vs Florida seems like free money.
That didn't age well.

If they pick literally every game the same, why are there 2 of them!?!?

This isn't very scientific.  Or accurate.  :57:
