I am looking to pull BOL odds daily to a google sheet. Is there anyway to do this?
If not, where can I pull First 5 Over/Under & side odds from?
Willing to watch a tutorial or something to learn. I know google sheets & excel well and currently have an automatic updating template for stats. Trying to buildout for odds.

Gee, with all the knowledge perhaps invest some of that into this new website called Google? It's a search engine for finding stuff.
Not sure I'd trust you with making a "hello world" spreadsheet let alone a stats template...

Most websites like BOL, The GReek, Pinacle, etc are not going to give anyone an RSS or JSON feed of their lines. You either need to write a screen scraper to either BOL or VI or ask a 3rd party like VI that already has the data if you can get a feed. They might say yes but probably not.
You might need to go manual copy and paste or a.) write a screen scrapper or b.) use a tool that automates the cut and paste process by recording a user doing the process and schedule that with task scheduler - but there are always little bugs that can popup since the source pages are out of your control and they can be late or change their format.
Or the automate can me a right click view source, save file as and then kick off a java or .net process that already knows the game numbers (eg. today CUBS are officially game #951 and PIT is #952) and can match BOL game #s to the team names you already have for today (if you already have that stored in a google doc that you can read into the java process for matching purposes)
If you are a fast programmer then something like this can be done over a weekend.
Getting back to google there might be a page somewhere that has the data that can be sent to you (RSS) and they charge a fee.
Good luck and let us know what you finally end up doing.
