I'm telling you folks, points are very important. Not in EVERY case but in many cases.
You better justify EVERY SINGLE POINT you lay. If you take points, you need only justify the side.
If you lay them you have to justify the side AND the points. That's hard to do! I've been doing this for many years. It is very hard to do.
Look at UMass RIGHT NOW. NOTHING to play for against Hawaii.
They are a TERRIBLE CFB program and a 2 win team. They schedule a trip to Hawaii for their final game. Many thought it was a Thanksgiving vacation. No one knew.
Hawaii is fighting for a bowl with 5 wins and needs to get to 6.
EVERYTHING to play for.
This is a ROAD dog traveling thousands of miles and has body clock issues vs. a team that's home who desperately wants a bowl.
Current score? Umass 33 Hawaii 40
The line is???? 7.5.
Well Umass just tied it up 40-40 as I typed. Unreal.
And points are at even more of premium in the NFL where millionaires do not play with the same do-or-die intensity college players do. They have tens of millions and sometimes hundreds of millions of dollars in investment to protect. That affects these scores.
We get points here at home with the Browns = valuable.
