Notre Dame @ Pitt Discussion - Sports Betting Forums

I haven't gotten around to depositing via Moneygram to 5 dimes yet. I probably won't get a chance until later tonight. This pretty much only leaves the Notre Dame/Pitt game as a primary bet option. I haven't seen many playing this game, so I wanted to hear some opinions.

Notre Dame is pretty much known as the never-covers. They're 2-7 against the spread this year, and coming off a humiliating loss against Navy. Pitt is 8-1 and pretty much a covering machine as of late. The line opens at 6.5 and has moved down to 6.

I see some value in Notre Dame. I believe this is the first time they've been underdog the entire season. Public perception is way down on them, and Pitt is a favorite to take down the Big East along with Cincinatti.

It could just be an inflated line here, because Notre Dame is such a well known team with a large fan base. I managed to play NC St. in Pitt's only loss this season, but they do have a solid team with a solid rush attack. I may consider an over wager here as well.

This could be either a really dumb wager, or a really good value one. Who knows.

Anyone else have any good wagers for tonight? Only need one to do a straight bet on.

The line I'm getting is 6, so there is no option to buy to 7 without paying ridiculous juice. I was actually considering selling a 1/2 pt to 5.5 if it was available. Wanna have a nice even number by the end of tonight. If not, I might just throw an if bet on the over. I think it's due. What do you think?

#8 PITT is Home against a very mediocre Norte Dame
team and PITT is a -6 point Favorite. PITT leads NCAAFB
with 39 sacks and has an amazing Freshman RB. Let's just make
this as Easy as I possible can:

Sept 19th: @PITT 27 NAVY 14

Nov 7th: NAVY 23 @ ND 21

Nov 14th: #8 PITT (8-1) -6 vs. ND (6-3)

If you can bet PITT & give -6 you can take it and run it to the BANK. IMHO

I have this game handicapped PITT up to -9 1/2, actually.

So PITT -6 is a Bloody Steal,,,close to grand theft Larceny.

GL to ALL!!!

5 dimes allows you to sell 1/2 pt. My system has done very well for me & my guys. Don't pass on Notre Dame tonight. We have our money big on Notre Dame tonight.. Might be a factor why the line moves to 6. I promise you will make money if you have ND +7. How big are you thinking?

The line moved to 5.5, so buying up to 7 isn't an option anyways. If it was, it woulda been like -140 or -145, and that's not worth it to bet in my opinion. I sold a full point to 4.5 and put an if bet on the bobcats tonight. Think it's a good spot for them. Let's hope for a close game, and Notre Dame to pull this out. I hate Pittsburgh. Dave Wannstedt is a terrible coach.

P.S. for those boxing fans out there, I hope I we cash so I can throw a small wager on Cotto tonight at +260. -320 is a cheap price for the best "pound for pound" fighter on the planet. Pacquaio hits real well, but when i watched him fight Barrera I think, he left himself way too open to big shots, and possibly a knockout punch.
