Other FCS Matchups / Betting Lines

Re: Other FCS Matchups / Betting Lines

And I thought it was bad when Goedert took out the marimba and Cade almost impaled himself on the cannon. No way would I want to throw a fade into the end zone or a sprint route. Jeez, looks like arena ball.

About as much room as the Fargo Dome.

Also interested in Kansas -6.5 vs Indiana State. I think Kansas wins by 17.

Re: Other FCS Matchups / Betting Lines

My guess is there wont be any FCS lines available.

If they want a few shillings from me they will. If not then I will just continue make other sound investments (beer, pizza, et al.) with my meager pittance.

I don't see it with JMU. They return a ton, but they were not elite last year. And the excuse about their coach leaving doesn't explain their losses mid season. I think they're a quarterfinal team.

I’m skeptical on them as well. They have a new coaching staff as well, but they are very talented with a ton of experienced players coming back. Preseason when you see a team coming back with almost everyone and they made the playoffs the year before it tends to be a telling sign that they’ll be real good. Look at EWU last year. The year prior they missed the playoffs but returned a ton from that team and were obviously damn good. I’m skeptical though with the coaching turnover. Preseason polls are miserable to do, I can’t imagine doing betting lines that early.

Georgia Southern vs Maine

GSU 33 Maine 17

GSU will need that game after LSU leading into the 3rd game against the Gophers'

I hope the Jacks can win against the Gophers or come within 3 points to rattle their Gopher Holes for GSU. ;-)

Re: Other FCS Matchups / Betting Lines

Jacks game has gone up to a 13.5 point spread. Looks very likely they will be 2 touchdown underdogs by game time.

Translation: If you plan to bet on the Jacks covering... wait. If it goes back down to 12.5 or 13, it's not that big of a deal. If it goes above 14 and into 14.5... big deal.

Re: Other FCS Matchups / Betting Lines

Some other line movement on other Thursday night games.

Delaware -25.5 vs Delaware St. (initial line -30.5) Delaware should absolutely drub Delaware St. I may look at teasing this with another game to -19.5

Southern Illinois +6.5 @ SEMO (initial line +6) I like Southern Illinois to cover, possibly pair this up in that teaser with Delaware to get the Salukis at +12.5

Missouri St. PK @ N. Arizona (initial line -3) Pry going to stay away from this one should obviously be a tight game and fun to watch. High elevation game this early in the season could be the difference.

Central Ark. +8.5 @ WKU (initial line +9.5) Not really sure about this game either..

There is no line up for SDSU v LIU on 5dimes at this time. Send your line predictions for the game.
Knowing nothing about LIU besides this is their first year of FCS football after winning 30 games in the last 3 years at D2, I will guess SDSU -43.

Re: Other FCS Matchups / Betting Lines

I'm guessing SDSU -41.5. Just checked, it's been posted at 37.5. Tempting.

That is tempting. I may dabble. Possibly straight up and a tease with the Over at 56. To get Jacks -31.5 / Over 50 total points scored.
I see this being something like a 49-10 game.

Delaware and Chatty are attractive with those lines. I'd look for both to win and cover against their respective opponents. I'd also take SEMO to win, but by about 4.
