FAU opens at +7.5 vs UCF…

Someone was impressed with FAU after the 1st qtr against OSU. I expected a bigger spread.

The principle behind the spread is to encourage betting on both sides so the house wins no matter what.  A smaller number to start with gets lots of bets for UCF, driving the spread the other way to try and get it up where people then start betting on FAU.

But I also agree - the wise guys are smart, and saw a much better performance by FAU after the first quarter to warrant 7.5 rather than starting in double-digits.  How the spread moves will tell us where the money is going and the final line usually gets pretty darn close to the actual score.  I haven’t looked, but am interested in the over/under after the teams combined for 92 last year.

I may be foolish, but I'm very excited about this game. I was disappointed with the coverage vs osu. But once we got some pressure on the qb , everything changed. Huge week for FAU  football

Line has moved all but one point in seven hours…that should tell you what kind of confidence our team has instilled after Saturday.

We don't just have a shot, we have an opportunity to claim some R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

Practice Travel likely in store for FAU as they prep for #17 UCF!

Besides from travel, has the team’s practice schedule been disrupted in any other way? Namely, having to take a day or two off?
