can anyone tell me where i can see the opening line on this game?

im curious to know why sportsbook.com had this opening at ohio+17 but even though 83% of the public is on rutgers, why the line moved to +15.5 FAVORABLY...

thanks,
~p~

good question, all though it is suppose to rain, nothing major. I go to RUtgers University and i'll be going to the game. This is alarming to me that the line moved from 17 to 15.5... I think its because Rutgers always seems to play down to other teams levels (in years past). This year seems a little different though, with the running attack of leonard and rice, they should run for just as many yards as garret wolfe and N.illinois ran against them, which was a boat load... I might tease this game, just in case Rutgers decides to play sloppy for the first half.. It's homecoming, so the crowd should have a pretty good showing..
Well thats all i know, hope it helped a little...

still though... 15.5 points is a LOT to give to an ohio team at home...

im going to stick with my guns and take the points even though rutgers has been very good to me this year

I agree. i'm not promoting the pick, but i wouldnt be able to take -15.5.. as you said, Rutgers has been VERY good to me so far, but 15.5 is alot.. Im thinkin bout doing a 10 pt teaser.. 3 teams.. one being Rutgers -5.5 ... :thumbs:

RU is at home. Maybe that's what you meant and just type it oddly, but just a head's up in case you thought Ohio U was at home. GL!

Rutgers has been $ this year but went with a Teaser also
Rutgers -2.5 feel they win by a FG easily

I second that.. Ohio will not be able to obtain rice and leonard at all. I think Coach Schiano will keep Rutgers focused on the game at hand.. They really don't get challenged until a few more weeks in.. But anyway.. Im definately teasing this one.. Regardless. GL pow and cuse and every1!!
