Opened at 16.5 point favorites over Southern Miss today. Line is now between 14-15.

Where did the line end up for Charlotte before kick off?

Between 14.5-15.5 depending on the book. Bovada was up to 15.5.

Let’s see. We are really good and scoring over 40 per, at home versus a not so great team that was tight with La Monroe. More easy money if one is a betting person

Depends on weather, lines are going to be tough with this uncertainty.

Does the goose egg tie count as not covering? Refund, house wins, or something in the middle on cancellation?

If we're the favorite, any final other than us winning by more than the spread is a loss. A cancelled game would result in refunds for all parties, as if the game/bet never happened.

Hey big man let me hold a dollar? Need to bet on App State to beat the spread again, just like they did the last 2 weeks!

Hard to imagine that this one is at a higher...or even similar spread to the Charlotte game. Wow.

This is the point I was trying to make. USM beat Charlotte by 45 last year.

I think some genius in Vegas out thought themselves on that Charlotte line. "App is going to be down after the emotional loss....lets cut the spread". I'm not a gambler but thought that spread made 0 sense....so much so that I thought I must be missing something and/or misunderstanding it

I never could make sense of the Charlotte spread either. How in the world does that balance the money on both sides? I would think you'd have to give Charlotte more than 14 points before ANYBODY would bet on them. Oh well....on to the rest of the season. That one's in the books.

And if the game goes less than 55 minutes (lets say it's a giant blowout at half and the coaches agree to 10-minute quarters in the second half), all bets are voided.
