Wow, what a beating. Looks like a lot of sharp $ went down in flames in Vegas, glad I avoided this massacre along with UTEP as well. Could bode well for the PAC the rest of the way.

You guys still do not get it, do you? First, there is no guarantee that what the books are telling you about percentages is correct. Next, it is only the percentage for THEIR book. Since Vegas books take in much more money individually than any individual Off Shore book, what the players in Vegas do is much more important. Vegas opened this at -4, and closed at -3 to 3 1/2. That is no big deal at all.

I'm fairly certain about 65% of the bets were on Utah, but I still did not play the game although I probably would have played Utah had there not been RLM based on the SOS differences. This line did actually move to -2.5 for several hours yesterday, if you want to consistently bet against line moves like that over the course of a season the odds will not be in your favor imo.

Sports Insights gets their data from 7 different books. We can debate all day on whether or not its accurate. However, I doubt SI would publish it and use it to form system picks if it wasn't accurate.

I agree. BigDaddy is a Vegas town honk that still makes special orders at McDonalds. He knows nothing about the internet books or consensus sites since he apparently doesn't use any of them. The only thing we know for sure is he has a computer. Probably one that still burns coal. As usual none of this keeps him from coming in here and telling all of us "we just don't get it." Like we listen or something...

His Bowl game analysis consists solely on a Sagarin system, totaling all of 3 plays.
