You can take all the line drops percentages and everything else but the Public bombed the books today. I never see the public get there due. What will happen is the sharp bettor will win and act like an expert but will never recognize a day like this. Im not sure the books won one game.

im not gonna research your games but you have to be kidding me if you think the books won Iowa and Syracuse. Just looking at those two heavily bet games i don't have to look any further. Nobody was betting iowa or wyoming but contra ion bettors.

Why was the final spread on Ohio St 6- if no one was betting Iowa. It sat at 7 all week and finished at 6-

Cuse went from 5 early in week to 4-.

Roger line moves don't always mean it is money. Please dont ever believe that. And don't ever believe that the books want equal action on both sides. Go look at most threads here and you will find 10 to 1 on guys who took Syracuse not Wyoming. Congrats to them. My books at home all had Syracuse and Ohio State. Sportsbooks are not in the business tio help us, and either are linesmakers. Go look at the NFL tomorrow. You think anyone is betting the Jets? I don't but the line is moving that way and im sure if you go to any true consensus site around you will find this out also.

kansas i can't comment on but really who bet Miami? Miami looked awful their last two games. You think everyone ran out and bet them? When a team looks awful on NTV nobody is confident enough to bet them. Michigan was also a huge play the books lost.
