That line will drop after Zolich takes Ohio U. in there Saturday and scares the **** out of them.
Oh damn I forgot Frank still coached there. He's a very good coach who will game plan well enough to make them queezy well into the game. I like it

It's the coach speak "Coach Mac Del Rio Just annihalated Kentucky with 320 yards through the air with one pick and if the reciever would have turned his shoulders would have been caught how do you think he is developing?" Well he sucks he missed throws all over the field and if we were playing anyone else we lose by 10 tds" (do not rub the belly)..... other side "Coach Butch how worried were you when shrek fumbled at the goal line against app state? oh and congrats on your week 2 national championship." well boys thank you we have ring fittings in an hr so we'll make this quick. we practice that fumble drill all the time, everytime in practice the ball is always on the ground so when that happened our guys knew what to do with it. He just knew to fumble it to the right spot.

I thought we heard they were setting the line before the season started at like 12.5.

Interest rates at banks almost no longer
exist. Here is a chance of a life time.
Make 100% in three and a half hours.
I say it drops drastically before Sunday
morning. It will end up at 3 - 3 1/2 or
less. The bookies are much smarter
than that. They will make their profits
on the hillbillies.

Maybe one day my Law brother we will feel that power once again, lol. Yeah, it was great during the NC campaigns when we pillaged and burned most stadiums we rolled into :thumbup:

Nothing more than bookies foaming at the mouth with that line.

Remember the Wuerffel years? If I remember correctly, we were underdogs to the Vols every year then. How'd that work out? Gator dominator. 'Nuff said. Go Gators.

Quick and maybe stupid question because I've never betted a game with any book agency. If you make your bet at 9.5 points and the line drops to 3 points by game time do you get to keep your 9.5 points?

Yep. That's the advantage to locking it in early. This disadvantage being that a lot could happen between now and then....injuries, suspensions, etc.

Yes. Your bet is locked in at the point you make it.

Speaking to a sports book exec, he was saying that the UF fans will come in and bet that large line with small bets and make it come down. Then the more intelligent UF fans will come in with larger bets after the line is down to about 6 and start taking the Vols. . Just saying

When the clock ticks midnight on Oct 15th the Vols could easily have 3 - 4 record. There is little doubt we will beat them. Ala will certainly beat them and Texas A&M will probably beat them. If A & M's defense keeps improving, they will be a factor in the SEC west. With them beat down Uga could beat them. It's played in Athens. Tenn will be 3 - 4 or 4 - 3. Most likely
3 - 4. Mr Haslem(Pilot gas stations owner) will have to step forward with 15 million $$$ to make 'another' coaching change. Watch the look on their fans' faces after they lose next Saturday.

No matter the spread, it appears UT will be favored, so betting the Money Line on us to win is good way to go.

Wouldn't the the UF fans who come in with big bets at 9.5 be considered the smarter fans?

He is saying that the smart bettors will make BOTH bets. Most likely only one will pay out and you will break even, but both will pay out if UT wins by 7, 8 or 9.
