Sports Betting Early College Football Line Moves and Top Trends
By Doug Upstone
The college football season is halfway in the books and we bring you the latest early college football Line Moves for this week. Studying line moves can become a very profitable venture if you know what to look for.
CFB – (319) PURDUE at (320) MICHIGAN STATE 12:00 ET BTN
If Purdue fans were disappointed with former coach Danny Hope’s final season at 6-6, with the Boilermakers at 1-5 SU and ATS and losing by 22.3 PPG, they are already making plans for the basketball season. Purdue travels to East Lansing where they are 2-7 ATS recently and they are up two points to +26.5 against Michigan State.
CFB – (333) CONNECTICUT at (334) CINCINNATI 12:00 ET ESPNU
Cincinnati has failed to cover their previous three games and have fallen from -16 to -14 point home favorites in this AAC clash. What makes this odd is Connecticut is winless and the only game they have covered was a magical night against Michigan. With the Huskies 8-18 ATS the past three years, hard to supports these dogs.
CFB – (365) LSU at (366) MISSISSIPPI 7:00 ET ESPN2
Points will not be in short supply in this SEC encounter. Ole Miss has been a big disappointment at 3-3 and though it covered against Texas A&M and should have beaten them, a pedestrian defense is being thinned by injury. Nevertheless, LSU is 5-14 ATS after two or more covers and Rebels coach Hugh Freeze is 23-8 ATS lifetime. The Tigers fell from -9 to -7.5.
CFB – (371) GEORGIA STATE at (372) TEXAS STATE 7:00 ET ESPN3
Georgia State might be an unsightful 0-6 on the season, but they look like Kate Upton having covered four in a row. This is reason enough for the Panthers to draw wagering support and they have tumbled from -20 to -17.5. In addition, Texas State has failed to cover both times they have been a favorite this season.
CFB – (381) UCLA at (382) STANFORD 3:30 ET ABC/ESPN2
Stanford has shown vulnerability all season and was finally caught at Utah. The Cardinals have to regroup quickly or the Pac-12 North will be over before they face Oregon. UCLA is an imposing challenge with its No. 7 scoring offense (45.8 PPG) and its defense is much improved. Stanford has gone from -7 to -4.5, but is 5-0 and 4-1 ATS vs. the Bruins since 2009.
CFB – (385) RICE at (386) NEW MEXICO STATE 8:00 ET ESPN3
College football bettors are riding the ‘ugly home dog’ theory, as New Mexico State at 0-6 (1-5 ATS) is down two points to +17.5 against Rice. It is difficult to make a case for the Aggies unless you buy into the belief the Owls will not give a hoot and go through the motions and just want to win the game. The Aggies are 0-10 and 3-7 ATS vs. winning teams.
CFB – (395) UNLV at (396) FRESNO STATE 10:00 ET
At this juncture of the season, Fresno State qualifies as BCS buster at 5-0 and looks to take the next step along the journey. They will face UNLV in a Mountain West clash, who has not had a winning record this late in the season since a quarterback named Randall Cunningham played for the Rebels (1984). Nevertheless, the Bulldogs have risen from -20.5 to -23, with UNLV 4-13 ATS as road underdogs.
