While grateful for the work, picks, and insight of a select few cappers here, why is it that the one game they give is usually a marquis game generally with tight margins and a sharp book line?
A few times we have had late line movement, reverse line movement, etc. Why is it never "Bellarmine to easily cover the 7 boys"? On a card with 20-30 games there has to be some woth no sweat, no.
Many of the games are a pass on my end, and this is to not dog any poster or play but stimulate some thought provoking discussion.

In general the big name matchups, typical are bigger schools, with better players (in general), have been watched more by the betting public>> therfore the public thinks they have an edge based on previous games they have watched.
Not to mention, books will allow much higher limits on 2 Big 10 or 2 ACC schools compared to say 2 Big Sky or Big South matchups. Then to take it a step further, a school such as Bellermine (who I don't believe turned D 1 until this yr), many books might have a max of just $500 on one of their games.

If even 20 % of the knuckle heads in some of these threads are betting 500 a play....God help them. But.....I just read that PA books had a 550 million handle in December....so maybe.
