Posted December 22, 2024Dec 22 Penn State from 9-1/2 to 11 vs Boise State Ohio State from 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 vs Oregon Same Texas 13-1/2 vs ASU Georgia 1-1/2 vs Notre Dame Basically when odds rise it is because the House gives the underdog more points to attract bettors to that side. For example, Georgia is currently pulling 45% and Notre Dame 55% which means the House has those odds about right.
December 22, 2024Dec 22 Moderator If I had any $$$, I'd bet on ASU +13.5 ND - Georgia, PSU-BSU look right. Curious what the ceiling will be for osu2-Oregon?

December 22, 2024Dec 22 Remember these odds are to attract people to separate them from their money. Vegas made a killing in the last Oregon v OSU game as 80% of the bets were on Ohio State.
December 22, 2024Dec 22 Moderator The odds are set and rise and fall to as noted above, Balance the Book. At -1.5 money came in the Buckeyes to take Ohio State to -2.5 and encourage money to come in on Oregon. Amateur bettors have short memories. They saw Penn State lighting up OBD's D and Ohio State's dominant win over a 2-loss SEC team that played a crummy in-conference schedule in conference that was down in 2024. Any line under 3 points is a PIK-Em. My buddies and I are down on the Over 53.5 and waiting for the line to hit TOSU -3 before betting on OBD.
