Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 4769412, member: 173"] One thing I’m certain of is that what you’ve done lately is a very, very small part of what linemakers look at to set a line (in their effort to get even money on both teams). A big percentage of bettors now look at analytics, which is why they are generally a good proxy for where the line will land. That this line is deviating so far from what analytics indicate it should be is pretty unusual, and it probably means they think a HUGE percentage of bettors overestimate how good Clemson is AND underestimate how good Syracuse is. What will be even more shocking is if the line doesn’t move significantly the way the Purdue line did, because smart money should be hammering Cuse right now. I can see a bad line getting set; staying there would mean I’m missing something in assessing the wisdom of the masses here. [/QUOTE]
