I'm going to guess PSU opens around -3 vs UW

Opened at PSU -4.5.

Wow. That's generous.

PAC12 is not a rushing-oriented conference. Outside of Stanford and USC (whom the Huskies didn't play), they really didn't face a lot of top tier rushing attacks. Additionally, our offense is at it's best when we throw first.

The matchup that worries me: our secondary vs their QB/WRs. We play that soft, slow reading zone and Browning will carve us up. We have to play a lot of man whether our DL can generate a good rush or not.

Their WRs aren't that good this year. Good backs and tough front 7, specifically DL. Secondary lost a lot but have reloaded. We will have to throw on them and stop the run. I think we handle it well.

 

[Grant Green]

Yeah, well, line immediately bet down to -2 to -3.

 

[Grant Green]

Yep.

At that line - - - - I'd like PSU (barring any impactful news over the next 4 weeks)

I made the line -2.5, so I'm not sure there is much value in betting PSU at -2 or -3.

By the way, if anyone is looking to bet PSU, the moneyline is about -135. One point is typically worth 20 cents on the money line, so a -2.5 spread should equate to about 50 cents. That means the money line should be around -150, or -160 with the vig. Better value than betting the spread.
