I'm a new member to this particular forum but I have been handicapping
NCAAF for about 4 years and last year was my first profitable season. I never guess what lines will be because I believe that spreads depict the perception about a particular game and not the actual expected outcome of the game based on match-ups, strengths, and weaknesses. Last year I generated expected outcomes of games based on a number of variables, 75% of which were statistical and 25% of which were situational/intangible. Then bet accordingly and had success. (As opposed to the first 3 years of wagering on NCAAF where I was simply guessing and blindly fading so-called "public percentages.") So far I've done the same for a number of week 1 games.
Neutral Field North Carolina 21 vs LSU 24 (-3, O/U 44)
Oregon State 26 vs TCU 42 (-16, O/U 68)
Colorado State 19 vs Colorado 31 (-12, O/U 50)

Maryland 21 vs Navy 30 (-9, O/U 51)
Boise State 32 vs Virginia Tech 38 (-6, O/U 70)
Rice 7 vs Texas 45 (-38, O/U 52)
ACC North Texas 13 @ Clemson 45 (-32, O/U 58)

Southern Miss 18 @ South Carolina 33 (-15, O/U 51)
Northwestern 23 @ Vanderbilt 24 (-1, O/U 47)
I left out any games in which teams that have new coaches are playing in. I'm still working on gathering information on the changes being made with those teams. I'm almost done with the rest of the conferences as well.

I'd be all over UCONN +15.5, but to be honest, I don't know if they are returning 2 or 22 starters. Looks like Chestnut agrees as he had UConn winning outright by 11.

here's the Gold Sheet's last set of power ratings for CFB in 2009....THE most accurate i've seen for predicting future lines..... https://www.goldsheet.com/gs_new/display.php?id=15506&item=17457&type=pdf&title=Football%20Gold%20Sheet%20-%2012/28/2009%20-%20Week%2018
very helpful for those that don't have their own set of power ratings....keep in mind this is last years....so adjustments (small usually) need to be made note: home field value is not a constant...but based on that years results....table provides a great (starting) point....> boise and texas both a -7......suggesting a pick em game on a neutral field......horns would of course be favored by 3-6
looking at Michigan v UConn..... if played last year.....(from table) line would be around pick em..(Mich rated a 13....minus 2 pts for home field....huskies rated an 11)..then adjusted to maybe mich -2' or so....?
mich off 5-7.....return 7/8 starters....under intense heat.....with irish on deck.....slightly better? huskies off 8-5....9/8 starters back (11-2 ATS)...bye next....should be stronger no doubt
LINE ?....probable optimism coming from wolverine camp may push it to 7ish....huskies may get extra attention due to last years ATS success.....start around 7 or slightly more......down from there?....hard to see it climbing over 10
* many apologies if LINK doesn't work .....AGAIN

GS line based ratings are a start like bookie says, not uncommon for them to move quite a bit during offseason, UConn/Mich and Vandy/NW seem like odd matchups
at least this year we won't have to listen (as much anyway) to the blindly take chalk in first two weeks theory, like most trends by the time the average degenerate figures it out...it changes or adjusts. Seem to recall favs were a few games under .500 over first two weeks last year as opposed to the year before.
may need to go read last years Steele today to get fix waiting for June
line guesses in march

Never too early, but I think Notre Dame might be around a td favorite probably 6.5 or so. I still think the offense is going to be pretty explosive this season. I'm really anxious for the season already.
