Even money on both sides of the line. And a lot of times these pre camp lines base a lot of their over under on last year's performance.

True. But the openning lines are based on a ton of research. Much more effort

Opening lines are often the least accurate, especially before camp starts

Adrielle

Least accurate compared to subsequent lines, which often reflect subsequent info

Over under bets in this situation are absolutely an educated

Definitely over...I’m bias but I think we are staring down a 8-9 win seson

It’s their best predictor of public opinion. It isn’t necessarily

Correct, but they don't assume the public will be wrong.

They don't assume the public will be right either. They look at historical

gwalker

For 90+ percent of the lines they don’t care what the general public thinks

Josef K

True. Replace “general public” with “those that are likely to bet.”

The general public doesn’t bet the moment a line is posted. Only the sharp

Josef K

The over/under is the prediction for number of wins

zerome4sooners

7/15/19 8:13pm

Nope
