Anyone pay any attention to the GOY lines that a few of the casino's release early?  It's about a 100 or so lines for games throughout the year, for example Golden nugget put out arkansas +16.5 against LSU. 

Someone could probably really try to middle a few of these games.

Anyone play O/U on wins?  Could really be a fun discussion to bounce some ideas of that off each toher for difference of opinions.  Might save or make some guys a few bucks?

I think South Carolina easily beats the 5.5 total. They're in an extremely volatile division and returning a QB with a high ceiling who has options at WR. Would assume a Muschamp coached team will improve on their dismal defense from year 1 to 2. Schedule sets up nice for them too.

I bought these at 1u each....

Okie St  o9

I like the going against AUB expectations. Feel like they normally exceed expectations when they're low and come up pretty short when they're high.

There's an espn podcast I enjoy, Behind the Bets, w/ Chad Millman and Bob Scucci (the director of sports gambling for the Boyd Gaming consortium).  The daily number of bets on McGregor by the public has been astounding.  One example of the public bettor:  he said 30+ people a day walk up to the window and ask how much they'd win on Mayweather.  Learning how small the payout would be, they ask the same of McGregor.  Upon hearing that they then say, "what the heck, let's put $100 on McGregor."  I know there is always a puncher's chance in any fight, but Joe Bettor has gotten carried away with this one.  Right now the bets are many on McGregor, but relatively small dollars.  Scucci says that at some point the sharps will come in and the line will move back towards its open, but as of now it's early for his usual pros to place their capital.

Anyone know about the big bookie that got busted in NWA this past week?  I saw it in Arkansas business this morning. 

He was some financial guy and the deposits and withdrawals got suspicious.  He had about 1 mill a year in bets they said.

I searched online for a few minutes and couldn't find anything. If you have a link to the story I would be interested to read about it. May be someone I know lol. Hope not.
Thanks for the F Shack.

I had Florida under 8.5 wins before.  Wonder if that's changed any. 

What does Mich have coming back?  Their defense going to be as good without peppers?

Saw report on that today. Michigan return no starters at DB, which is never a good thing.
People ask me what I do in winter when there is no baseball.  I will tell you what I do. I stare out the window, and I wait for spring.

Well Florida has Cleveland but can they get him the ball.  They just lost their grad transfer QB.  So now it's back to the same guys that couldn't throw it last year I believe.

Oh this could be a real sloppy game. Most people feel Fla is going to be offensively challenged again this season.

And they lost a lot on defense too.  I'm thinking I like harbaugh in this one

He was wrapped up in that fraud thing I though?

He wasn't one of the seven players suspended if that's what you're talking about.

Will be interesting to see how he fares this season. Always thought he was special after the bowl game against LSU a few years back.

I can't find the thread on here that had the post from the Florida deal that said he was a part of it.  But it also said it was more money than $1500 too

I googled it and Bleacher Report's article on it popped up first and didn't list his name as one of the seven.

He was rumored to be involved.  Here's the article that came out clearing him.
