Spread moved to UM -6.5 today

[Ohio_Cane]

Smart money coming in now.

Not to mention A LOT of it coming in. Takes a boatload to move a line 1.5 without some major injury/suspension.

surprised it hasn't been pulled with it moving that much in 4 days...

I don’t think it ever opened it -10.5, I think somebody was quoting the Miami of Ohio game. I believe it opened at -6.5

I checked the line in today's paper, and indeed it does say that the opening line was -10.5 and today it's at -6.5. I don't recall what service my local paper, Savannah Morning News, uses, but they always show the open vs. the current line.

FWIW, it got down to as low as -4 on Tuesday or Wednesday, was back to -5.5 yesterday, and of course -6.5 today. Not a gambler, myself, so I don't pretend to know what this all means. Just putting it out there for anyone who might find it useful.

No book who accepts bets from people with more than two brain cells went to 4. Furthermore, those books never came close to 10.5. The highest was 7.5 from any book worth quoting. The 10.5 line came from the BetOnline opener which is not a good indication of the actual market. Those BetOnline opening lines have extremely small limits and are not a true indication of what the line should be. It is much better to use Pinnacle lines as a market indicator. Pinnacle has the current line at -6.5 (-107).

This is a fair assessment. $500 limits on those opening lines usually.

Don't know much about gambling, but I know what I saw.

Again, I'm not a gambler other than face to face bets, so I don't know what books are reputable and which aren't. Just saw some people claiming that the -10.5 line must have been Miami (OH) and I knew I had seen it too.

Opened at -10.5 but dropped quickly after Walton new broke.

That would make sense to me if I knew enough about it to make sense. I just check to see if we're favored or not.
