CFB Early Lines Thread (week of 10/8)

FWIW, my Notre Dame lean has a lot more to do with a lack of confidence in BC covering big spreads than it does with any ND resurgence.

Here are some scores for BC home games this year:
BC 38 Wake 28
BC 37 Army 17
BC 24 UMass 14

Just not that confident in their ability to score a lot of points on the road. Also, if Notre Dame has a strength this year, it's pass defense. Since BC relies on their passing game so heavily, that should give the Irish a chance to slow the Eagles down even more, either by stopping the offense cold, or by getting BC to rely on their slow, ineffective rushing game which wouldn't give ND much of a chance to win, but would definitely keep the score down.

I was kind of hoping this would sneak up to 14.5, but it looks like I'm out of luck there unless I want to get my money stuck on Bodog for 3 months. (I don't.) If you really want to know what the square side is on a bet, Bodog having a line that's a full point off from the market crossing a key number is a pretty good indication.
