Default NCAAF Early Lines Thread (Conference championship week)

OK, in sticking with my plan, let's have a new thread for discussing the real lines the sportsbooks have put out that are bettable.

The following lines appear to have some value to me:

Tennessee +7.5- LSU hasn't beaten a team with a winning record by this many points since they played Va. Tech in Week 2. Are they really going to pick the week after they got eliminated from the national championship race for their best performance since September?

Washington +12: Sagarin has Hawaii 3.5 points better on a neutral field. This looks like a ton of points for a Hawaii team that's only had one good game this year.

I also find the BC line kind of strange. There's no adjustment for BC's road win over VT a month and a half ago? Really? I'm not sure where the value is, but I was quite surprised to see this line over a field goal.
