Not betting many games tonight, but this is my strongest play tonight. For starters, Notre Dame is pretty tough at home. They re beatable for sure, but they play much better at home and have a home record of 13-2. On the other side, Cincy is having an average year. Cincy does not play very well away from home, racking up a 1-5 away record.

On top of that, Cincy is also 3-8 in there last 11 Road games, which is a stat that I like to see.

Bottom line is, if the Irish come out and play the way they should, covering the 3 points shouldn't be too difficult.

Play: Notre Dame -3

Brey also has been working his team hard in practice this week. He called two 8 a.m. practices in addition to their normal afternoon practices.

Dude, you're doing nothing but stating the obvious, eventhough it is more obvious that the line of ND-3 (opened at -3.5) smells like shit. Should be somewhere at ND-6 or -7 in my opinion.

Cincy Bearcats +3

So you think the line should be ND by 6 or 7 but taking the Bearcats? Is this because you think they cover or just because the line looks sketchy according to you. And what I was stating above are just the facts.

I gotta agree with him the line should be higher...and with all the money on ND it moved in ND favor...to me that's a red flag its either cinci or no play, but i think i will be going with cinci...Just dont think ND is very good and i think the bigs will create some problems for Gody

That's fine. I could care less who others are on, I make my own plays and decisions. Thanks for the inputs tho.

Hey Battle I went up and down and around the whole card tonight and the Notre Dame game stood out, time and time again.

 A top 3 pick for me tonight if not the best pick of the day, Notre Dame -3.

Just can't believe how many people get sucked into this line movement bullshit. If they learn to handicap they will start handicaping the game instead of the line, the public and everything else.

When your a good handicapper and I trust that you are by finding this gem tonight. You don't really give a shit what side the public is on. Your just looking for weak lines to capatalize on. Am I right?

Yeah I get what your saying. It doesn't phase me what side the public is on, or the experts. It's gambling, unless they know a game is going to be throwed, then what they think doesn't matter. I pick the games that I think will win, it's as simple as that.

You have to make your own plays.. If someones only reason for betting a spread is the line moves in a funky direction then they should just stay away.. Ive never understood that but a lot of people do that.. I try to cap the game not the public

Vegas loves you

They set the line low to make people think Cincy is the play.

Cincy is not good.

Lance Stephenson is a thug.

ND coming off 2 straight road losses come home hungy! Cincy has 1 rd win in BE, Rutgers! Believe ND comes out strong, holds off Cincy and covers.

Well that just doesnt make sense because 85% of the money is on ND so they didnt do a good job of making people think cinci was the play then

I am with you on Notre Dame in this one. Maybe Mike Brey decided to actually work on some defense with his 8 am practices.
