BE point spreads for opening week

[SAMCRO]

Per vegasinsider.com, and Beyond the bets, here is a quick look at point spreads for the first two weeks (obviously these are changing by the day).
Week 1
UConn -26 v. UMass
Temple -16.5 v Nova
USF -30 v. Chattanooga
SU + 3 v. Northwestern
RU - 24 @ Tulane
Pitt - 28 v. Youngstown
UL -10 v. Kentucky

Week 2
Cinci -4 v. Pitt
UConn +7 v. NC State
UL -33 v. Missouri St
Temple +1 v. Maryland
USF - 3.5 @ Nevada
RU -39 v. Howard
SU +27 v. USC

Week one the BE should go 6-1 (unless SU can handle their own v. NW, maybe they'll get another phantom PAT mis-call for the win.) Week 2 OOC could be anything from 5-1 to 2-4. SU is a loss to USC, but Temple, USF and UConn could go either way.

I'll take us getting a TD at home every time, especially against a poor road team like NC State.

how bad is northwestern suppose to be?

Louisville is -14 now against UK and still getting the majority of money.

UConn is 24.5 or 25 everywhere I see.

Rutgers is -17.5 down from -19.

Odd seeing Syracuse favored. BCU is -1 now.

It's odd to see Boise +7 against Mich State.

The first week schedule is excellent. Saturday from 9am to Sunday at 2 am. That is a great day.

The line against Umass was 21 a few weeks ago, vegas knows we are going to roll.

Or they know the UMass QB is out due to concussions.

Anyone have a clue as to why MD is favored against Temple? Given what happened last year in that game and what was lost in the offseason, I would have gone with Temple...

Ah yes, forgot about that, never mind it would have been much closer

Line moved before he got hurt. I don't know if there was ever a chance to bet it as low as 21.

I don't think that's a real line. It's from a projection that Beyond the Bets did projecting the lines of every game of the season a few months ago.

Cuse not favored, they're getting points. Some of the lines aren't Vegas' driven. Vegasinsider.com wasn't listing every game so I pulled some off of 'beyondthebets' which is marginally close. Those spreads were what I saw earlier, more for discussion than the official lines.

Yeah I read it backwards, Cuse is getting 1 or 1.5 right now.

Michigan now getting 12.5.

I like Youngstown +28
