2017 Early Lines

It was not. It was BetUSA. They took it OTB today. Was chatting with another guy today who also maxed it at another shop but I believe he did in Vegas, not offshore.

I can't fathom it would have been up in Vegas if it wasn't at the Southpoint, and it wasn't when I was there.

Just checked w him. I misinterpreted his sports book acronym. He said SB and in my head I thought it was SP, southpoint. It was sportbook ag offshore
 
Also, made my biggest week 1 bet so far on what has to be the most asinine line ever created. That's coming from a guy who is very high on Umass.

Coastal Carolina +31 v. UMass (5 units)

Wow - what was the limit?
 
Got some more RSW tonight. Local used South Point numbers but limited me to 1 unit each and made me pay an extra tax on each. I have now double dipped a few with these more recent numbers being more favorable to me:

BYU UNDER 10 -135
Colorado State OVER 7.5 -120

Duke OVER 4.5 -120

EMU OVER 4.5 -130

FAU OVER 4 -125

GT OVER 6 -120
Kansas OVER 2.5 -120

Maryland OVER 3 -130
Massachusetts OVER 2.5 -130
Memphis OVER 8.5 -120

Mississippi State OVER 5 -120

North Carolina State OVER 6.5 -130

South Carolina OVER 5 -120
 
I think FAU get there but it's odd to me they wouldn't put the hook on it, can't imagine many are betting under. Hope it hits for you CK among others, I think Lane takes them to a bowl

Thanks, KJ. Good to see ya, man!

I think that was one of my favorites, would have bet more if I could. I see 5 at minimum but think they are a team with really high upside considering the offensive skill talent they have. Defense may still be atrocious but in the C-USA, he with the best offense tends to win.

Greetings, my friend!

I think the QB is good place to start. I've made it pretty clear how highly I think of him and his future. Their skill talent as a whole is prob one of the most under-apprceciated groups in CFB. I won't go through each guy but I think the pass catching trio Of Deebo, Edwards and Hurst is going to put a ton of strain on defenses and now the young RB are a year older and they get Williams the UNC transfer who I think is going to be a terrific compliment to Dowdle. Year 2 of the system I expect lot of progress, especially considering Bentley should have been in HS last year and both Deebo and Edwards played hurt. Their OL was miserable last year and I'm banking on them getting at least average OL play, which I don't think is unrealistic. OL will have arguably their stiffest test of the season week 1 v. NC St so that should give us pretty good indication to how much farther along they are.

Defensively, my biggest concern is the DL, particularly depth across it. I don't have a lot of positives to say about this group right now and its a legit concern. I do think the defense will greatly benefit from getting LB Skai Moore back from injury he is a heck of a player and leads a real nice starting unit but they have depth issues along that area as well. Secondary I think can be a strength, perhaps teams will be able to run on them so they won't necessarily be tested too much but they return just about everybody at the back and should have two young guys contribute right away in Jaylin Dickerson and one of my fav recruits in country - Jamyest Williams who is mix of Honey Badger and Budda Baker. I think I trust Muschamp and staff to continue to get the most out of the defense and I think the offense is so talented right now not even he can screw that up. They did win quite a few close ones last year which can point to regression but I really think this offense has potential to be really good.

As far as schedule goes, they don't have a single layup. Wofford I guess technically should be but seeing a well coached option team around thanksgiving is just recipe for embarrassment. If they get good OL play and the potential lack of depth in front 7 doesn't rear it's head, they could start season 7-0. Conversely, they could lose just about any of those and I wouldn't be too shocked! I think their crossover games w the SEC-W are fortuitous - Arky and aTm are near bottom of that division and I think USCe is better team than both. Obviously the 80-1 to win SEC is a lotto ticket but I think I can find 6 wins at least in a variety of ways and have the upshot in there of an 8+ win season if they stay healthy and win close ones. I think it's fair to forecast they find 5 of their wins at home against Kentucky (who I actually think I really like this year), La Tech, Arkansas, Vandy, Wofford. If they win those, got 7 others that I don't have a single one marked as definite loss, although if Clemson grows throughout year and offense matures they could boat race them again.

Charleston Southern W

@ Auburn L
BYE
BYU W
Kentucky W
@ aTm W
UMass W
Alabama L
@ Arkansas W
Ole Miss L

If they lose @aTm, @ Arky and Ole Miss that puts them at 5 so need one of those in addition to others where they will be favorites. I actually think Kentucky at home may be a tougher than @aTm or @Arky - depending on if NovemBERT of old comes back or if they are just meh like I think they should be. Gonna be pretty tough to stop the Miss St off and I think their defense is going to take an enormous step forward with their youth being year older, transfers and Grantham in as DC.
 
I agree, horses. I'm honestly just hoping Umass gets the win for my RSW bet on them.

Few more dart throws for me, I've just added more to few at better prices and will update big board in those instances with amounts and avg prices:

USF QB Quentin Flowers 75/1 (.05 unit)
MSST QB Nick Fitzgerald 100/1 (.10 unit)

Really like GT and the points On Sept 4
Will be on the ML as well.
I'll be fading Da Vols all year
 
How hard is ole miss expected to fall off this year if they're only 3.5 point favorites at cal??

The early PR from oddsmakers has them falling off a cliff, especially with how low Cal is valued by them. I don't mind Ole Miss at all this year. They are gonna be able to score, that's for sure. I actually forgot to list another GOY I took them in.

Butchie really has no business being at a big time program. Hope once he gets canned he goes and sits at a MAC school and just does his thing there - it's what he's much better equipped to do.

Agree on week 1, I took points also.

The early PR from oddsmakers has them falling off a cliff, especially with how low Cal is valued by them. I don't mind Ole Miss at all this year. They are gonna be able to score, that's for sure. I actually forgot to list another GOY I took them in.

GOY:

Week 5:
Ole Miss +25 @ Bama -120 (1 unit)


I don't know anything about Cal's new offense, but assuming that they don't have the pieces to line up and play smashmouth football, then I think Ole Miss' D will be fine. As you mentioned, I don't anticipate Ole Miss having much difficulty scoring against anybody other than Bama and maybe LSU. I think Ole Miss' D will be improved given the new staff, but even with considerable improvement they will still be a long way from "good."

My guess is the Cal offense changes some just with the change in staff/philosophy and it's a lot to ask of a QB with no experience to do what Goff and Webb did. I think they will still want to do similar things airing it out but I don't imagine they will do it as well, although Robertson at WR is nasty and Stovall a nice 2. I def don't think they will have the chops to bully OM and likely won't be settled enough at this point in season. My concern with OM and how I plan to handicap them is doing my best to gauge their emotion/desire on weekly basis. They've always struck me as a group that emotion really fuels - good and bad (See Bama last few years and Egg Bowl LY). I know they will be up for Bama, not sure about Cal but they are just likely to be able to do whatever they want on offense. Only a few teams in CFB gonna limit their passing, Cal aint one.
 
Some special props:

Week 1 Starting QB:

Nathan Stanley (Iowa) -110 (1 unit)
Danny Etling (LSU) -105 (2 units)
Josh Jackson (VT) +145 (1 unit)
 
Etling that low? The surgery?

Everyone expexts him to start

what is the limit there?

Just think it was a bad number. There were quite a few of them, at first I was trying to read into them and then just realized they shouldn't have put out lines on them, but I'm glad they did.
 
I see FAU in your futures, any thoughts on them in week 1? I have more work to do but my initial line on that one is significantly off from the market and I'm thinking about locking it in early.

I had an early look at FAU getting +17 or maybe even more, IIRC. Anyway, I should have locked that in but didn't. I'm going to be targeting this total, there is almost no chance they make it as high as it should be. There is little to no chance either team is going to be able to stop one another. I think it's a winnable game for FAU so getting two scores is appealing. Navy offense prob a bit less volatile so I think a straight up win may be a bit much to realistically wager big money on but I don't see any reason to believe this is a surefire loss. FAU has NFL players at every skill spot and based on how slow the Navy defense has looked over past couple years, I think it could be problems.
