    First thought is BYU -2. At home, Friday night, should be able to manhandle UCF. But they got killed by Utah but had a lot of turnovers. I still think I like BYU -2. Thoughts?

    Dr. Bob's got a 3-star play on UCF, so BYU is a lock.

    I'm on UCF.

    Got 2 units on UCF +120 ML and another unit on UCF +2.

    UCF 8-0 last 2 years coming of a loss. BYU has looked lost on Offense this year, UCF's D should be able to handle them IMO.

    Traveling to these mountain teams is a bit tricky....

    BYU was awful last week and against ole miss...but for some odd reason theyre giving points...

    BYU or nothing...judging by my friday record, ucf will pond them....good thing I've given up these games...will just watch.

    I think that has a lot to do with BYU having much more name recognition to the general public, combined with UCF coming off a loss to FIU.

    Thats possible, but the public is on ucf...and I think would be even laying 2.5 or so...

    I hate byu, so I'd like to see them embarrassed.

    looks like public in on BYU, not UCF...according to sportsinsights.com.

    Not substantial, 55%

    Thats a shift then...because on wednesday it was basically opposite of that.

    looking at sportsinsights.

    on Wed, 69% of the plays were on BYU and now only 55% are on them. Will be interesting to see if there are any line moves around kickoff. I think BYU is still the play, but i like the under more

    UCF is a Top 25 team. I expect them to win this by 14ish. FIU was just such a perfect trap game for them and after that loss everyone considers them dog shit.

    Also FIU is a pretty good team in their own right

    Exactly. People aren't giving FIU any credit. They should win the Sun Belt this year and have a Top 5 WR in the game.

    I think public money has shifted back towards even with a couple of popular cappers on UCF.

    I was really hoping to get UCF at +3, but Dr. Bob fucked that up

    Hmm that's weird. I know I saw it at +3 earlier this week, but I couldn't tell you when.

    This game shouldn't be close. UCF should be killing them. They have shot themselves in the foot way to many times

    Sucks to start the weekend down 3.1 units, but I still feel like UCF was a good bet. Bad beats happen, just got to remember if you make good bets the good should out weigh the bad over the long haul.
