The Bulls are viewed as an improving team with a looming schedule problem.

“South Florida has a shot,” Fargo explains, “but games at Kansas, North Carolina, Louisville and Rutgers don’t help things.”

The Jayhawks are currently favored by 5 ½ points for Saturday’s game, but the emergence of redshirt freshman Matt Grothe makes one book wonder about the line.

“USF is playing well,” says the 5 dimes line man. “Their quarterback runs and throws the ball nice. I think USF has too much speed for Kansas.”

The Big East is a combined 17-6 straight-up and 13-5-1 against the spread this year. Rumors abound that conference backers want to rename the conference the Huge East.

They’re winning the games they’re supposed to win (9-0 SU against teams from non-BCS conferences) and winning games the books don’t expect them to win. The conference is 7-5 SU and a fantastic 9-3 ATS against teams from other BCS conferences.

Funny...I was just thinking about how I dont think too many people know about how good Grothe is and how he can only improve.  Im sure Vegas knows but its the trends of bets which moves the lines.  I like usf big again this week.  Let it ride.  Go Bulls.
