Opening day lines…

[PlainsUte]

Presented for amusement and gauging what to expect the first week since the oddsmakers usually get things pretty close.  Most Pac-12 schools open at home.

Guess there’s no betting on Utah vs Weber

Colorado favored by 6.5 over CSU (in Denver, CSU’s second game)

Oregon State 38.5 point (!) underdog at Ohio State Wifebeaters

Arizona favored by 15.5 vs TDS

Arizona State favored by just 17 vs Texas-San Antonio

Stanford favored by 15 vs SDSU

Cal favored by 5.5 over UNC

USC favored by 27.5 vs UNLV

UCLA favored by 16.5 vs Cincinnati

Washington is 3 pt dog at Auburn

Washington St favored by 3.5 at Laramie with, or without, electricity

Oregon favored by 27.5 over Boring Green Straight University

Utah State is 25.5 dog at Mich State

This is meant in good fun, but I have to point out that you missed an obvious pun.  Ohio State Blackeyes.

[PlainsUte]

Haha, good one.

[Utah]

Weber State is ranked #8, if I saw that correctly. 

[PlainsUte]

Yes, the FCS Coaches ranked them 8th in Div I FCS.  2017 Big Sky Champs, finished 5th in 2017 FCS poll.  No pushover.  Sagarin’s final predictor from 2017 does provide an estimate… Utah by 16, including 2.4 pt home advantage.

Not sure you’ll find anyone to take that bet except some guy named Nephi behind the Maverick in Ogden.

Jay Hill on his way up to FBS soon?

[Puget Ute]

They may be our toughest OOC matchup this year.  I kind of like Weber to cover.

[Thlete]

Give me:

Beavers +38.5

SDSU +15

BYU +15.5

Wash +3

[PlainsUte]

Don’t think Cal can beat UNC by more than 5 at home?

[Thlete]

I do, but I see the current line at 8.5 so I didn’t bother listing it. 

[AlohaUte]

Against the spread I’ll take:

* CSU
* Oregon State
* BYU
* Arizona State
* SDSU
* Cal
* USC
* UCLA
* Washington
* Oregon
* Michigan State
