Can someone tell me what the NCAAf line is on South Carolina North Carolina state is at 5 dimes?

Take any other lines they have too,

You should always be able to see their lines whether you have an account there (or are logged in) or not.

Thanks. I've been dicking around trying to get in with an old account I didn't try and use the front door.

Many sites are starting to hang lines on NCAAf and many of them are off on their own. Based on what at 5D and what the southpoint released in Vegas I have bet the following where I can. I figure these lines to be better than what will be available at kickoff baring an injury

USF -14 (it's 17 now)
FSU +7.5
Louisville-20.5
BYU +14
UNC -7.5
Texas -17

Daly, they are no longer virgin lines.

Isn't that the greatest term in gambling?

[hongkonger]

Anyone for an Indy 500 bet?

Scott Dixon +500
Will Power +750
JR Hildebrand +2500
Ed Carpenter +1500

Betting these 4 @ 100 each IMO gives you a good chance at a profit.

Stay away from Castroneves, Sato and Alonso IMO.

I could be wrong though.

I'm a big SDSU fan but Stanford at -5 seems like a play

Penn state laying 14 to Big Blue? That won't last.

Ok, let's do some baseball.

First picks posted (and made) this season.

Cardinals +111 (Wacha) vs. Dodgers (Maeda)
Pains me to make this one, but I don't see the Dodgers winning this one tonight. Public is mesmerized by Dodgers' 5-game winning streak and recent ass-kicking of the Cubs. But most of that was at home, where the Dodgers have killed it since the 2015 season began (more than 2/3 games won there). On the road, the Dodgers are simply a different team. Maeda has been highly inconsistent all year, and is only one start removed from a DL stint. Wacha got hammered by these same Dodgers in Los Angeles last week, but otherwise pitched well this season.

Angels (Bridwell) -132 vs. Braves (Colon)
Bridwell has pitched fewer than 4 innings in the Majors, and gave up 5 earned runs. But that was last year, and he's looking good in the minors, including a 32/4 K/BB ratio in 32 IP. This will be his first Major League start. Normally I wouldn't be too excited by this, but he's facing the punchless Braves in his home park, and Bartolo Colon (6.96 ERA/1.585 WHIP) looks finished. I would fade Colon in any start going forward where the line looks reasonable.

Oakland (Gray) +155 at Cleveland (Bauer)
Bauer has horrible numbers and has not made a start with fewer than 2 ER this year. Gray is looking fairly good this year. +155 is a nice line to get here, even on Oakland. Game starts in a few mins though.

[Sanlmar]

Welcome back Druff.

Don't have to twist my arm here

Mobile - Baseball - MLB - 906 St. Louis Cardinals +110 for Game

Light hitting Cards but who knows

Can't believe how good Wood is pitching. He has numbers that look better than Kershaw. Dodgers testing the faithful

I'm shocked by Wood.

I could have had him for nothing in my fantasy draft and passed. Obviously regretting that. He's on the DL, though, so who knows what will happen when he returns. He's always had the problem of inconsistency.

I think the Dodgers will come into this game overconfident and get beat. I hate posting picks against them, but I feel like I have to this time. I don't trust Maeda at all, especially on the road. This is a perfect sell high spot.

Don't bet against them at home. A sobering thought: If you could get +200 against the Dodgers on every single home game since 2015 and bet every single time, you would be down money right now. Let that sink in. We're talking about almost 200 games here.

A's struck out 3 times in first inning but did get a double. Hmm... not sure what to think. If Gray is on his game, I'll be ok.

[Dan Druff]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere we go.

1-0 A's with man at 2nd with 1 out.

Bauer already looking shaky.

Sorry I didn't post this one earlier.

Just missed 2-run HR too, thanks to deep ballpark at center.

[Dan Druff]

Braves down to -123.

Public hates the Angels because Trout is out, and the rest of the team isn't hitting.

I still like it. Fortunately I haven't bet it yet, so I'll get the better price.

[Sanlmar]

Grey working hard too.

I've developed an interest in the live over.

Just a small over for fun. Don't love it.

OAKLAND ATHLETICS at CLEVELAND INDIANS Total OVER 8.5 +130

Took a little more

OAKLAND ATHLETICS at CLEVELAND INDIANS Total OVER 6.5 -115

[Dan Druff]

Grey working hard too.

I've developed an interest in the live over

Yeah Gray not looking as solid as I had hoped.

I don't want this game going to the Oakland bullpen if close.

They need to hammer a few more runs off Bauer.

I just wish that one hard hit ball in the first went out. Bad luck that it went to straightaway center.

[Dan Druff]

Keep feeling like the A's are a hair away from blowing this one open, and things keep happening.

First a great diving catch where the ball just barely stays in the glove and doesn't touch the ground, and then a great throw from LF resulting in an out at the plate.

Still 3-0 As after 3.5 innings, so I can't complain so far.

[Dan Druff]

Yeah Gray is having a bad 4th here. 3-1 now.

I really wish they were up like 5-0 instead of 3-0.

I really hope he gets out of this before it turns into a disaster

[Dan Druff]

Yep... I saw this coming.

Indians lead 4-3 now.

Gray just wasn't looking good today.

Game not over... A's can easily come back from 1 down, but not looking very good anymore.

[Dan Druff]

Speaking of 3-0 leads, that's what the Cards have on the Dodgers. And I don't think the Dodgers are coming back, unlike the Indians.

You're welcome, Sanlmar.

You're welcome, Sanlmar.

I'd tell you I love you but I'll wait until Dodgers celebrate LGBT night June 9th

[Dan Druff]

5-3 Cleveland now. Shoulda bought out of that game live betting when it was 3-1 A's. I knew it was going in the toilet.

I still feel good about the other two, even though the Angels haven't started yet.

[Daly]

Drrrrruf!

Always a better thread when the owner is around.

So not to be a dick but every one of these lines is 3 points better at the Westgate today!
