I think the public teams of the country (USC, top 5, Notre Dame, UF, any high scoring team) are being taxed an extra 4-5 points a game, due to the notion that many casual fans are going to take them regardless of the spread... for anyone up against these types of teams, I would mostly wait to get them later in the week, when the public who has seen blowouts by said teams in the recent weeks drive up the lines even higher...just my 2 cents...
