Against the Spread. We may be winning but not doing it by the margin that Vegas expects so it baked into the narrative that USF, although winning, isn’t performing to the experts’ expectation. We have only covered the Vegas line in 3 of our last 10.

Ah, thanks. I was wondering what you meant by ATS. :GoBulls:

The final line is not the experts’ expectations. That is the opening line. The actual final line is set by people’s (gamblers) pocketbooks for their wagers so probably a better indication of national perception of both teams. The line does not lie about what most people are thinking.

How many points do you get spotted for being favored? Weren’t we under dogs going into the Tech game?

I took Tulsa to cover and to win outright.  Worked out well. I broke even and the Bulls won.

The most frustrating thing about this team is that the offense does not seem to have intermediate routes. Deep or nothing

None, just making a point about the spread, we can certainly win those games

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.
