Easiest money you'll ever make if you take ECU and the points. That said, I could never take money like that. Dirty money betting against your program.
BTW, why does Vegas keep giving us the benefit of the doubt? Have we covered in any game this year? You'd think they'd put a 50 point spread on this sucker.

This is not nearly as tempting as the Baylor and A&M lines.

I just play the tables, I don't bet on games

larger spread than any game we've played this year...and I bet ECU covers. Remember, they laid 70 points on UNC and Clemson could only score 50 against the Heels. We may find out that ECU is as good as anyone we've faced so far this year

I'm happy for ECU and I'm glad we added them to the AAC. We need at least 3-4 programs that are capable of being Top 25. It would be nice if we could get that up to 6-7 teams but right now the conference is just really bad.

Yep, this line is still incredibly low.

Well, you could pledge all winnings to SMU, then it's a win/win for SMU no matter what happens.

So this has just become a disguised SMU betting information forum
I looked at Sagarin today, and I think it was about 14.

I thought all 3 lines (Baylor, Aggy and TCU) were way too low. I think the ECU line is spot on.

Ouch, and I can't say that I disagree with Vegas unfortunately.

ECU has a lot to prove and I am afraid that they will not show as much mercy as Baylor, A&M and TCU did. The line might not be enough.
