I think you guys are way off on this one. It is still Pitt and even without Howland they have the bias. Who is ODU? Unless you are following this forum then no one even knows who these guys are. I would say that 90% of anyone outside of Va don't even know what ODU stands for.
This line if it were to happen would probably be closer to 8 or 9 and more thanl ikely bet up to DD. Why are books going to post a 5.5 or a 6 and get buried one way?
Pitt is still a public team, and while not where they have been recently, still won 20 games and even though they lost 3 games late in a row, they still belw out BC and ND two pretty decent teams.
But they are also somwhat overrated by the lines or bettors since their ATS is well below 500. So I have to say it gets shaded very much to the Pitt side (if it comes about, which is a major if)
