the line in this game is growing in favor of clemson

bama game the line is steady

ND fans are betting it up. Vegas needs to balance it out. The sharps will hammer it soon and it will drop quickly again.

meh, both teams are in a glass house regarding sos
If Notre Dame and Clemson did not play tough schedules, who in your opinion did. As you look, be reminded that of the top 8 teams, Clemson's opponents and Notre Dame's opponents won more games and lost less than any of the others. Clemson's was one win maybe two better than NDs.
Alabama may have caught ND by playing Georgia ( I have not done a follow up). But the concept that USC, Stanford, Florida State, Pittsburg, Vanderbilt, Syracuse, Northwestern, and Virginia Tech, are all "nobodies" I like to know why you feel that way.
Are you under the impression that ND scheduled these teams to rack up easy wins. The two G5 teams they played had bad years but few P5 teams are willing to schedule NAVY. Wake Forest not generally a good team. But of this schedule only Navy, Ball State and Florida St. are not in bowl games. Florida State was a surprise and NAVY has been in a bowl about 7 of the last 8 years.
Since 10 of the teams are Power 5 teams, it means that their schedules were on, average, at least as difficult as all Power 5 teams. If your opponent's overall records are not better then everyone's else's, what criteria is there to use.

That makes no sense. If bets are going on ND, the line comes down.

I totally misread that. I guess that makes more sense, Vegas had ND as dogs to the next few teams out as well, and has Clemson and Bama a couple steps above everyone.

It's all good. East Lansing math is different.

Hope Beasley bets his house. He has already lost over 5k on ND this year.

well then I am truly sorry for my comment
Don’t be, I’m having a blast, and very content with my life and future. Everything in life to me has now turned into a time to laugh, banter with others and hopefully turn a smile upon their face

I,m good

that is too many points to lay out against an undefeated team
no way in hell I would bet much on the game, maybe the O/U but I have not seen it
