Zach is all over Minnesota, so it prompted me to look at the SI Odds Page. Some people think the bet percentages are garbage, others don't. So, FWIW.......
Nebraska receiving 80% of spread bets, but the line is -13.5 from an open of -14.5. PLAY ON MINNESOTA.
Here are a few other games with the line moving in the opposite direction:
SIDES:
Iowa 71%, line opened -11 now -10/-9.5. PLAY ON ILLINOIS
Miami Fla 62%, yet the line has moved off the key number of -3 to -2.5. PLAY ON NC ST
Kansas St 62%, line flipped from -2 to +1. PLAY ON BAYLOR
Oregon St 66%, -7 to -4.5 PLAY ON ARIZONA
Wash St 65%, +3.5 to +6.5 PLAY ON COLORADO
Stanford 69%, -11.5 to -10.5 PLAY ON CAL
Arkansas 70%, PK to +2 PLAY ON MISS ST
So Florida 62%, -14 to -12.5 PLAY ON SMU
Oklahoma St 69%, +4 to +6 PLAY ON TCU
TOTALS:
Duke/Pitt 66% OVER: 63 to 62
UTSA/Texas A&M 84% OVER: 57.5 to 57
Texas St/NM ST 66% OVER: 67 to 66
Arizona St/Washington 71% OVER: 68.5 TO 63.5
Wash St/Colorado 68% OVER: 60 to 58.5
Arkansas St/Mississippi ST 77% OVER: 60.5 to 59
Tulsa/UCF 77% OVER: 65.5 to 64.5
Clemson/Wake Forest 83% OVER: 47 and hasn't moved
Ok St/TCU 77% OVER: 71.5 to 70
All of these games would be played UNDER the total.
I'll revisit after the games to see how they fared. I'm not advocating playing every game blindly, but if you like a side this is another reason to make a wager.
