What does Vegas know? USF opens as 17.5 favorite at U Conn

[Roaming Bull]

This game could be a turning in point in someone's season. I'm naively hoping we will have a breakout game, but realistically this game will likely be an awful game to watch. I hope we can at least win by 10

The over opened at 62 and is currently 67.

That seems high to me.

I'll take USF by 14 on the road. Solid road win to start 3-0 (1-0) but not enough to cover the spread.

This could be a blessing for UCF. I gave them a slim chance to win this game. But if it gets postponed until later AND they find their groove on offense they may have the confidence needed to steal this one.

They're the favorite...wouldn't really be stealing it at all.

 Am hoping to take Memphis on the money line while UCiF is favored. Should be a relatively decent pay out. Hope this game gets played.

Hope the game gets played and Memphis wins.

Vegas doesn't make lines on who they think will win, they make lines to get people to bet both sides. D1 home teams get anywhere from 3-7 points to start out with depending on the perceived advantage. 

I guess what I am saying is this game should be closed and a UCF team that has had a few down years knocking off a team that has finished near the top of the much stronger division would be a steal.
