If the public thought the line was way off, it would have moved a lot. Look at the LSU line. We opened as about a 6pt. favorite and were the underdog at kickoff. That was a huge move but the bettors were correct. Vegas lines are not a predictor of outcomes they are designed to get equal money bet on both sides. And if that happens the line won't move.

Easy, we are at home, A&M has a crappy defense, they blew a big lead at UCLA, and people only saw the final score of LSU, not the slap fight of ineptitude.

I'm not sure if you've watched any games this season but our offense sucks and our defense isn't much better. They scored 19 points against Bama and that defense so I expect them to score at least 34 points on us. Last I checked we've only scored that many points once this year.

Coach Mac is a two time sec east champion.
He's responsible for ALA winning a championship.
He was a formidable force at Colorado beating everyone in sight.
He has assembled one of the best coaching staffs in the country earning a 100 on the offensive rankings (the highest is 126)
He has a keen eye for talent and is able to coach 2 stars into 5 stars.
In addition to being the bestest coach in whole wide world, he is a great philosopher and strategist, with a focus on fitness and hygeine.
We are going to beat the brakes off A&M without even looking like we even care about football all while literally dressed as alligators!
Bet the house on UF.

Betting lines are designed to maximize the income of those taking bets, not to be reality.

I'll take it a step further. Anyone who says he should be fired is crazy. No one is allowed to call him names and I also hereby forbid any negative posting!

Texas A&M currently has the #28 rush defense in the entire nation. And just so happens running the ball is the only thing were not completely a joke at.

Home field advantage. It’s typically worth about 3 points and that’s your difference here. Those that say the line is designed to get equal money on both sides rather than being indicative of who will win by a certain number of points are also correct. However, it’s been my experience that the line accurately predicts the margin of victory probably 80-85% of the time. It’s scary how close the oddsmakers are to the final differential.

They think A&M will see the uniforms, vomit all over the place, be unable to play and have to forfeit.
