Friday when I started looking at the lines it all came up Dog to me; But 60% chalk covered . Today at first glance it looks like Chalk. I was reading the lines like I had the next days scores for about a wk. Friday they changed up. Anyone see what I did ? I know this will sound crazy to most but, you have to think out side the box to win.

There are countless ways to analyze a matchup.

And btw, what does "think out side the box" mean anyways?

What are you referring to exactly when you say 'Anyone see what I did?' I think I know where you are going with this but just looking for clarification. I am thinking that the last couple of weeks have been a an attempt at a 'lure' by the lines maker to get bettors' minds going one way and then come conference play next month, he (or she??) will hit everyone hard. For the most part, the "too-good-to-be-true" lines have actually been coming in which is not normal as far as I am concerned.

I think we are on the same page, to me the lines were different yesterday compared to recent history, today looks like the opposite of yesterday.

Gotcha...I have been getting killed in recent weeks when in past seasons, the same handicapping has won me a lot of plays. I just think that some of these games were give-a-ways to boost an amateur bettor's confidence, like UNC yesterday only giving 8 as an opening number to St. Louis? It was also one of the higher % consensus plays which usually is a clear indicator to go the other way or no play at all. We shall see over the next couple of weeks if the tides will turn.

Have a great Holiday!
