Oddsmaker: Sharp action on Cincinnati

By BETED.COM | November 13, 2008 |

Randy Scott is the sportsbook manager at betED.com. He breaks down all the details his book is monitoring for tonight's college football game.

Cincinnati -4
Louisville 47.5
Friday 8:00 pm ESPN2

Weather: MOSTLY CLOUDY, 40 PERCENT CHANCE SHOWER, STORMS.
- The pointspread was hit by wise action at: Cincinnati -3.5

- The total opened at: 47
- Where the public is: Cincinnati by a ratio of 5.8 to 2.2

- Where the money is: Cincinnati by a small margin

- Two teams heading in opposite directions the past two weeks. Cincinnati beat a decent West Virginia team in overtime as 7-point underdogs and Louisville got blown out 41-7 to Pittsburgh last week. However we have Cincinnati as the underdog to cover the pointspread -- but warn caution as wise action has been placed on Cincinnati to win by more than 4 points.

Appreciate the information but the last sentence is mangled. I assume you are saying that you don't believe the favorite, Cincinnati-4, will cover the spread. If that is correct just say so, but don,t couch in phrases such as WE HAVE CINCINNATI AS THE UNDERDOG TO COVER THE POINTSPREAD.

Morning guys,

I just wanted to clear up any confusion about what Randy is saying. He has Cincinnati as a 4-point favorite because of action on the Bearcats. He believes the Cardinals have a good chance of covering the number.

Hope that helps.

Good luck with your plays.

Why does Ashton have to clear up what Randy is saying? Can't Randy either do that himself or be able to convey his initial thoughts in a lucid and well thought out manner?

Better question yet is why is Randy on this forum anyway attempting to convey a thought when he doesn't know how.....My 11 year old could have made more sense.....

"....underdog to cover the pointspread " Cincy ? underdog? Oh, underdog to cover.

Sounds like all that explanation of wall street crisis.

But I do like Louisville to cover here.
