I had the line set at -13 so it's about exactly where I thought it would come out at. Public might push this line down a bit as USC hasn't been covering to well of late and Notre Dame has been a solid money maker. I expected the line to be this and I like Notre Dame. I think they can keep USC offense in check by limiting opportunities by keeping the chains moving on offense with a ball controlled passing game.
I figured they would shade it and put up 12 or so to see what people thought. Obviously they think USC really as good as people think they are, and aren't letting people adjust the line for them. Either that or they are begging for ND money one or the other.
norte dame with a bi-week should be $$ in the first half...i see nothing coming from the usc camp that shows they will play any different and a slow start seems all to likely...
