Texas line closes at 3

Well aware of that. My best guess was people on the notion that a favorite is "bound" to cover soon. My question was aimed more towards an almighty sharp doing the line moving. Had a good year and just wanted to know if anyone is considering leaving their plus 5 or better positions.

[I]"Let's get it on..."[/I] :) What an appropriate Groovinmahovin "song of the week" by the late, great Marvin Gaye. The red-hot Fezzik nailed the line at +5 and then it dropped instead of continuing to move upward. How does he know these things!? Roll tide roll!

Not really fair though to say it was moving up unless you're counting that 4'.

(My point is that we don't need to embellish Fezzik's ability. It stands up on its own.)

[QUOTE=jefff;14379]Lang is big on Bama. ML, 1H and game. Clearly the driving force here ;)[/QUOTE] im not sure if your joking or not, but all i know about lang is that he is the butt of all the jokes on forums. does this guy really have a client base that will move a line? i would have thought all the clients are broke by now.

Just went to 3-1/2 right before kickoff @ Bookmaker

I have the line closing at 3 1/2.

Let's not get too carried away here. As posted, +4 -101 and -102 were available on Pinnacle at various points throughout the day, including 10 minutes before kickoff, and that's only a tiny bit better than +5 -110. I would slightly prefer +5 -110 but it's only a difference of a fraction of a percent.

[QUOTE=joelshitshow;14382](My point is that we don't need to embellish Fezzik's ability.

Looking back at all the lines now, there was a wide variance of movements, opening #s (like 4 in Vegas) etc. for an accurate assessment on my part.
