Crunch's Early Bird Line - 10/24

[#cruncher]

The 'numbers' (overall) did pretty good (last week...based on a 6 point difference between my number and the opening line...ended up going 16-11 for 59%...only problem with this is, who wants to put up 27 bets?...and that's assuming it could continue...I ended up, in 'my wisdom' of narrowing it all down to 9 plays and went a sizzling 3-6...no wonder I can 'feel' my man smiling after I've dialed him up! The numbers should be a tad tighter this week.

It's nice to see there are guys out there that still put the effort to make there lines. Nice info.

 

[#cruncher]

Thanks Goldcup!

 

[Joe De]

cruncher ..thx nice info..if this stays close to the number ..one stands out....Ga. Tech +2...they have won their last 6 Homecomings...last week they looked terrible but came off a bye week ...should perk up this week hope theline keeps them as a dog...good luck

 

[iahawk06]

I also feel Iowa should be the Favorite this week, but you know they won't be..I can understand that. So Iowa +any points will be a huge play for me this week. Maybe my biggist play of the year. I see the line comeing out with Michigan favored by 2 or 3, any more would shock me and I would love it!

This week give me
Iowa plus whatever at the Big House &
Texas A&M minus whatever at home against the Dreaded SKERS

I'll take both these plays to the bank and be on them as soon as they come out!

Looking ahead...it's gonna be funny seeing the Skers being big underdogs at home against Texas, next week i think?

GO HAWKS!

 

[#cruncher]

I like Virginia in that one Joe De. They have been playing awfully well lately and seem to make real good half-time adjustments. I will say that the ACC has given me fits in the past, even with a decent set of numbers...don't have a clue why either. I like Iowa to Hawk...I know Michigan is tough but Iowa has made a believer of me and 4.5 pts may be a little too much...also like A&M but sure would have liked to get them at no more than -3.0...and hate to go against a good team that has lost their last game...although it's obvious that Nebraska is just not their usual selves this year...maybe even for the last few years?

Correction

Correction

Maryland should be -12.0 vice -17.0...Looking at at wrong number when I wrote it in.

 

[redking]

your early lines say Syracuse by 3 over Rutgers.

books say SU by 14.5

interesting!

 

[#cruncher]

Right on Redking...I want to play Rutgers pretty bad, but I try to stay away from games that open at more than 13 points, plus or minus...those games just seem to get less predictable either way...I hate to get 'backdoored' because the favorite just lays down the 2nd half after having a big lead...and a lot of times things get out of hand after one teams jumps on another and a 30 or so point favorite can win by 60!
