If I believed in double the normal wager, this would be it.

UCF -170 is a great play.

At home, coming off an emotional win in Houston with a great defense (#35 in PPG and #30 in YPG).

You have BYU coming in deflated from losing their stud QB and losing outright to a 21 point dog. BYU actually thought they were a National Championship contender and they lost it all.

No motivation, QB with inexperience and playing a great D.

Roll with the UCF ML.

Have never understood this philosophy at all.

Say you wager 10 to win 7 and you lose. Ok, you lost 10. You make the same wager at -110 and where are you then? Down 1?

Ok.

I've watched BYU play three times this year. Without Hill, they're gonna be in trouble. I'm parlaying the -3+ with a few others, so yes, I agree the Knights roll.

Ok.

I believe what 8ate was referencing was the difficulty in producing a profit over a larger segment of plays when laying -170. You need to hit at rate of just under 63% to produce a profit compared to 52.38% at -110. I'm not saying I disagree with the play, but its hard enough to beat the -110 over time let alone trying to beat -170.

Best of luck with your action.

..Well stated; but in no way am I belittling or disparaging any wager; just when you have to win close to 2/3 just to break even; you better not lose 2 in a row..jmho..gl..

Yeah, no I get it. It's always a good discussion to have.

UCF -170 is a great play.

Down to 150
in some spots and is 135 at heritage.

Not sure of the math angle here playing such a high money line.
