I have held off on playing this game, I was leaning towards Pitt, but the line is moving upwards, as I am getting 6.5 at one of my books. Granted, I have been high on BGSU this season, at the start of the season, I projected them to be the best in the MAC. I watched them come into Gainesville last year and pretty much go toe to toe with a decent Gator team. At this point, the Falcons have lost their coach, since he is going to Wake Forest which will probably lead to him being canned in 3-4 years since Wake might be the worst coaching option in the ACC outside of possibly Duke. I am pretty high on Chryst as a head coach, he was a very good coordinator at Wisky, so I think he will be well prepared for BG. Another point is that Pitt played a top 30 schedule, whereas BGSU played one of the bottom ten strength of schedule. The line move makes me hesitate on playing Pitt, the logical play would be under here, but I detest betting bowl games under, since teams tend to open up their offenses for bowl season. Tough game to cap in my opinion and the nightcap is just as tough.

Interesting observations.

I've got BG on ml at the back end of a parlay, but a middle is always possible. :0008

My local has Pitt +7.5. I liked Pitt anyway. Who they've each played weighs big IMO. I will,be on Pitt or nothing. Head scratcher:shrug:

Pitt is the play! BG will have no interest after three weeks off and already winning their big game.. Hard gettting up for two big games in a row let alone Pitt...Waiting for 7 at my outlet...GL whatever you decide...

This game totally has baffled many who watch the line movements, MC!! I'm with ya!!

The sharp # for the game is 7 pts, opening line pushed it down to -4 BG, then it shot back up to -7, every time it hits 7, it falls back to -6 1/2, so my connection at the Hilton tells me, the major books taking in action on the game said, "every time Line drops to -5 1/2, huge money pushes the line back up, each time it goes to -7, huge money pushes it back down" bottom line meaning, the sharps think this one will land on 7 pts.

Pittsburgh one dimensional, front line defensive guy who won a few awards, big WR for Pitt, Street is questionable, BG had a short travel spot to go back to where they beat N Ill for the MACtion championship, but QB for BG has this one circled to beat PITT!!

GL on it!!
