WSU-Baylor Fixed???

[dave T]

Line goes from +2.5 to -6.5...a 9-point swing...and WSU has 5 turnovers to zero for Baylor. I realize WSU is a crappy team, but Baylor isn't far behind. I find it very hard to believe that enough money would be bet on either of these crappy teams to move the line that much.

If the line moves that much, it's usually like Texas -31 open and -38 close against N. Texas or something like that, and the Longhorns win by 50...

I really think this game was fixed...

Maybe the news got out that Washington St just got off the plane earlier Friday and only had a few hours to prepare.

Yea I think it was just a bad spot for WSU...rushed into playing early, they prefered it got postponed...baylor has a couple games under thier belt with a new coach and high scoring offense...and since the game was singled out on a Friday night action had to pour in somewhere and it was all on Baylor I guess

-6.5??? Wow, never saw anywhere that was near that???

I don't usually go for the 'ole conspiracy thing, but I still think the game was fixed. Inordinary circumstances like schedule changes and getting in town late happen from time to time, and I know sometimes the team actually comes out and plays "looser" and wins despite the odds against them. Baylor is aweful, and I can't see a 9-point swing; that rarely happens period, much less on a bad team (even if they are playing another bad team).

The line closed at -6.5 and -7.0 depending on where...

*VIRGINIA +11.0

closed around 6.5


Line went from WSU -2 to Baylor -2 during the week, normal movement....no one could believe that WSU was actually a fav.

Line then went from -2 to -4 right after they moved the game up.....everyone knew Wazzou was flying in on gameday w/ minimal time to prepare.

Line went from -4 to -6 before the game simply due to everyone pounding the shit out of Baylor b/c it looked so easy.

Fixed? No.....Do I wish I would have jumped on w/ the rest of the world? Yup!
