Early Lines

Early Lines
« on: August 26, 2011, 06:12:39 PM »
    Was checking early lines and came across some interesting numbers.  'bama is the favorite to win the SEC at +150 and are +450 to win the BCS,  Lsu is +300 and +800,  Arkansas' numbers are +800 and +4000, and Auburn is +10000 and +20000.   You would think that comparing the numbers would give you a somewhat similar multiplier, but they are all different. 
     I also violated my rule on betting on Hog games when I saw the early line against 'Bama at +9.5.  All the early money seems to love the Tide, I don't see it.  That line will probably be down less than 7 when the game rolls around.  The line for the iron bowl is currently at 10.5, which also seems high to me.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Now I may be an idiot, but there is one thing I am not, sir, and that, sir, is an idiot.

I don't believe you.

I have every confidence in him.  If he says it, you can take it to the bank.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

     The lines came from Sportsbook.com.  I also took the over on Boise/Georgia at 51.  Not sure who wins, but I think they score some points.

Have to disagree.  I think the UGA defense can keep BSU from scoring too much, but the dawgie offense is going to be abysmal.  I'd go under 51 without a moment's hesitation.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

I'm going with AU at 10-2.  The baby Tigers will shock the SEC west

If Auburn goes 10-2 this year, I predict another national title within the next 3 years...
