College Football Odds Week 11: Opening lines and sharp money
Patrick Everson

Quarterback Kyle Trask and Florida hope to avoid a flat spot this week against Arkansas, after a big win over Georgia. PointsBet USA opened the Gators -16.5 and moved to -17.5 Monday.

College football odds for Week 11 are on the betting board and getting action, though the schedule is a bit lackluster. No. 5 Florida, which just rolled over Georgia, plays host to Arkansas, while the Alabama-LSU game could be impacted by COVID.

FanDuel and PointsBet USA provided insights on college football Week 11 opening lines, early line movement, sharp money and public betting for this week's matchups.

These are the current College football Week 11 odds for the premier games on the schedule, as of November 9.

Arkansas at (5) Florida odds
Opening line
Florida -16.5, Over/Under 60.5

Why the line moved
Florida, coming off a big win over Georgia, jumped a point to -17.5 early Monday afternoon at PointsBet USA. "It's very lopsided toward Florida," PointsBet's Patrick Eichner said of early ticket count and money on the spread. The total is already up two points to 62.5.

(6) Texas A&M at Tennessee odds
Opening line
Tennessee +13, Over/Under 54

Why the line moved
This line saw significant early movement at PointsBet USA, from Texas A&M -13 to -8 by Monday afternoon, though A&M is taking the bulk of light early action. "Tickets and money about a 65/35 split toward the Aggies," PointsBet's Eichner said. The total also fell a notch from 54 to 53, likely due to Tennessee's uncertainty at quarterback, with starter Jarrett Guarantano suffering an apparent concussion in Saturday's loss at Arkansas.

(2) Notre Dame at Boston College Odds
Opening line
Boston College +13.5, Over/Under 50.5

Why the line moved

The Fighting Irish dipped to -12.5 shortly after FanDuel opened this game Sunday and stayed there until Monday afternoon, before returning to -13.5. Notre Dame is drawing 55 percent of early tickets, but 70 percent of early dollars are on underdog Boston College. The total fell from 50.5 to 48.5 Monday, with 77 percent of bets on the Over, but 90 percent of early cash on the Under.

(9) Miami at Virginia Tech odds
Opening line
Virginia Tech -1.5, Over/Under 62.5

Why the line moved
Miami is 6-1 SU but a road underdog against Virginia Tech. In fact, the first move at FanDuel was toward the Hokies, from -1.5 to -2.5, then back to -1.5 Monday afternoon. Tickets are running about 4/1 and money 2/1 on the Hurricanes. The total shot from 62.5 to 66.5, with 88 percent of bets and 82 percent of money on the Over.

(3) Ohio State at Maryland Odds
Opening line
Maryland +26.5, Over/Under 71.5

Why the line moved
Maryland is coming off a stunning rout of Penn State, but the Terrapins are still hefty underdogs against Ohio State at FanDuel. However, this line tightened a couple of points Monday to Buckeyes -24.5, with tickets 3/1 and money almost 2/1 on Maryland. The total is up to 72.5, with 89 percent of early tickets and almost every early dollar on the Over.

(23) Northwestern at Purdue odds
Opening line
Pick 'em, Over/Under 50.5

Why the line moved
This game opened pick 'em and was up to Northwestern -2.5 by Monday afternoon at FanDuel, where 60 percent of bets and 57 percent of money are on the Wildcats. The total was jumpy early, dropping to 48.5 and rebounding to 51.5, with 56 percent of bets/79 percent of money on the Over.

(20) USC at Arizona odds
Opening line
Arizona +12.5, Over/Under 63.5

Why the line moved
The Trojans are already up to -14.5 at FanDuel, where practically every early ticket and dollar are on USC. The total also made a significant jump to 67.5 by Monday night, though FanDuel's betting splits aren't yet available.

(12) Oregon at Washington State odds
Opening line
Washington State +7.5, Over/Under 60.5

Why the line moved
The Ducks rolled over Stanford 35-14 in their season opener, then went up at -7.5 and quickly moved to -9.5 at FanDuel for Saturday's road game against the Cougars. Sixty-nine percent of bets and 61 percent of dollars are on Oregon through Monday night. The total tumbled from 60.5 to 56.5 through 24 hours, with ticket count 2/1 and money more than 6/1 on the Under.

(19) Southern Methodist at Tulsa odds
Opening line
Tulsa -1.5, Over/Under 63.5

Why the line moved
Tulsa is up a point to -2.5 at FanDuel, thanks to early point-spread money running 2/1 on the Golden Hurricane, while the early ticket count is 2/1 on No. 19 SMU. The total moved from 63.5 to 62.5 to 64.5, then back to the opener of 63.5, with 62 percent of bets and practically every dollar going to the Over.

(1) Alabama at LSU odds
Opening line
LSU +22.5, Over/Under 74.5

Why the line moved
Preseason, the date for this game likely had a huge red circle around it. Now, Alabama is 6-0 SU and defending national champion LSU is a meager 2-3, and the Tigers have COVID issues that could end up postponing this game. Alabama jumped up to -27.5 by Monday afternoon before FanDuel took the game off the board, due to the COVID situation. At that point, tickets were 5/1 and money more than 9/1 on the Crimson Tide.

Quote of the Day
“The reality is, and it’s well noted and I’ve said this several times, Jay’s (Cutler) a gunslinger. I don’t think he had all the tools and skills he needed to really lead a team, and when you’re in the NFL that quarterback, you gotta be like a CEO. I think he tried to develop that over time and it just could never come around, and it got to a point in Chicago where those first couple of years he was hit so bad it just seemed like it wore on him mentally and physically and we just didn’t have enough to get it done.”
Former NFL WR Brandon Marshall

Wednesday’s quiz
The movies The Hangover and Hangover Part III take place mainly in Las Vegas; where did the second Hangover movie take place?

Tuesday’s quiz
Ben Roethlisberger played his college football at Miami OH

Monday’s quiz
Mike Leach is the football coach at Mississippi State; he also coached Texas Tech, Washington State.

***********************************

Wednesday’s Den: Movies that just missed my all-time favorites’ lists……

Thirteen movies that I really like, but none of these made my favorite 13 lists, either sports or non-sports movies…….if you find them on TV somewhere, they’re worth your time.

13) Autumn in New York— Richard Gere plays an aging playboy who falls for a much younger, but terminally ill woman (Winona Ryder). Excellent supporting cast: JK Simmons, Jill Hennessy, Vera Farmiga, Anthony LaPaglia.

12) Ides of March— An idealistic staffer (Ryan Gosling) for a new presidential candidate (George Clooney) gets a crash course on dirty politics during his stint on the campaign trail. Supporting cast includes Marisa Tomei, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti.

11) Little Big League— A 12-year old kid inherits the Minnesota Twins from his grandfather (Jason Robards). Ashley Crow plays the kid’s mom; in real life, her son was a first round draft pick of the Mets last June.

10) Wall Street— A young and impatient stockbroker (Charlie Sheen) is willing to do anything to get to the top, including trading on illegal inside information taken through a ruthless and greedy corporate raider (Michael Douglas) who takes the young man under his wing.

Martin Sheen, Hal Holbrook, Daryl Hannah, James Spader are just part of a tremendous cast.

9) Shopgirl— A bored salesgirl (Claire Danes) has to choose between a wealthy but much older businessman (Steve Martin) and an aimless young man.

I’m a big Steve Martin fan; not only a great comedian, but a terrific actor.

8) Lucky You— A hotshot poker player does well playing in tournaments in Las Vegas, but is fighting a losing battle with his personal problems. Robert Duvall plays the guy’s poker legend father, Drew Barrymore plays his girlfriend, and lot of real-life poker pros are co-stars.

7) Lincoln Lawyer— A lawyer (Matthew McConaughey) defending a wealthy man begins to believe his client is guilty of more than just one crime. Supporting cast includes Marisa Tomei, William Macy, Josh Lucas, Bryan Cranston.

6) Heaven Can Wait— An NFL quarterback (Warren Beatty), accidentally taken away from his body by an overanxious angel before he was meant to die, returns to life in the body of a recently murdered millionaire. Jack Warden, Julie Christie, James Mason, Charles Grodin, Dyan Cannon are part of an impressive cast.

This movie came out in 1978, when the Rams were in midst of making the playoffs every year, but then failing in the playoffs. Seeing the Rams win the Super Bowl, even in a movie, made an 18-year old me a lot happier— I had the theater poster from Heaven Can Wait hanging in my bedroom. Actually, it may still be up there, have to look.

5) Dave— The US President goes into a coma while having an affair; to avoid a huge scandal in the press, an affable temp agency owner with an uncanny resemblance to the president is put in his place. Kevin Kline, Kevin Dunn, Frank Langella, Sigourney Weaver, Ving Rhames, Charles Grodin and Ben Kingsley make up an impressive cast.

4) Random Hearts— A police sergeant (Harrison Ford) and US Representative (Kristin Scott Thomas) lose their spouses in a plane crash, and soon discover that their spouses were having an affair with each other. Supporting cast includes Paul Guilfoyle, Dennis Haysbert, Bonnie Hunt and Charles Dutton.

3) Prince of Tides— A high school football coach from the south talks to his suicidal sister’s psychiatrist in New York City about their family history and falls in love with her in the process. Nick Nolte/Barbra Streisand are the stars; Blythe Danner, George Carlin are supporting actors.

2) Let It Ride— A cab driver/compulsive gambler gets a hot tip on a racehorse and has a very big day at the track. If you’ve ever spent time at the racetrack, this movie will make you laugh. Cast includes Richard Dreyfuss, Teri Garr, Jennifer Tilly, David Johansen.

1) The Natural— Robert Redford plays a middle-aged ballplayer who comes out of nowhere to lead the New York Knights to the playoffs. Wilford Brimley, Robert Duvall are terrific in their supporting roles.

PLEASE wear a mask when you go out.

Quote of the Day
“I actually thought that they (Eagles) should have kept Nick Foles rather than Carson Wentz just based off production and where they got to. They won a Super Bowl with Foles. And that was a little bit surprising. But they’re obviously banking on his upside. How many more years do you let it linger before you stick with him or you cut bait? That’s a question only they can answer.”
Brett Favre

Thursday’s quiz
Where did Russell Westbrook play his college basketball?

Wednesday’s quiz
The movies The Hangover and Hangover Part III take place mainly in Las Vegas; the second Hangover movie took place mostly in Thailand.

Tuesday’s quiz
Ben Roethlisberger played his college football at Miami OH

****************************

Thursday’s Den: Doing some thinking out loud…….

13) Russell Westbrook wants out of Houston, after only one year there; he averaged 27.2 ppg for the Rockets LY, but with GM Daryl Morey/coach Mike D’Antoni moving on, Westbrook wants to go elsewhere too. There’s a problem, though.

Westbrook turns 32 today; his salary the next three seasons:
$41 million, $43.8M, $46.6 million. Thats million, with an M.

Trading a contract like that ain’t easy, especially for a guy who’ll be 35 when the contract ends; chances are he would have to go to a bad team if he were to get traded. Would Westbrook be happy playing for a non-contender? Is he ever happy?

12) Pitchers Marcus Stroman (Mets), Kevin Gausman (Giants) accepted $18.9M qualifying offers from their teams Wednesday. Good day for those guys.

Four players rejected their offers: DJ LeMahieu, JT Realmuto, George Springer, Trevor Bauer. Those guys become free agents’ and are assuming they’ll make more than $18.9M a year.

11) My Blue Ribbon Basketball Yearbook came in the mail this week, an early Christmas gift. No schedules in the book obviously, since schedules are still being drawn up, but now I can get down to work and start studying rosters.

If you like college basketball, this is a great book to have; all 357 D-I teams are written up. Tons of information, whether you’re a fan or a handicapper.

10) This is very 2020:
Michigan/Florida State’s football teams are a combined 3-7.
Indiana/Northwestern’s teams are a combined 6-0.

9) Maryland’s football team won the last two weeks— they were underdogs of 18-27 points. Not often a team pulls huge upsets like that in consecutive games. Terrapins’ game with Ohio State this week was cancelled, after a COVID outbreak in the Maryland community.

8) Ball State 38, Eastern Michigan 31— Wish the LA Rams could pluck EMU’s kicker off their roster right now; kid missed a 53-yard field goal in this game, but ball hit the upright halfway up— very strong leg. He’ll be kicking on Sundays very soon.

Ball State converted a 3rd-and-19 on the game-winning drive; this was a fun game to watch; two good teams.

Eastern Michigan, by the way, has now covered 18 of last 21 times as a road underdog.

7) Louisville Cardinals already lost two starters off their basketball team.

Big guy Malik Williams, co-captain and most experienced returnee for the Cardinals, will miss at least 12 weeks due to an injury to his right foot.

Charles Minlend, a grad transfer from San Francisco, will miss six weeks with a sprained MCL in his left knee.

6) Of the last 20 Masters champs, 12 of them didn’t play on Tour the previous week.

I saw that clip of Jon Rahm getting a hole-in-one Tuesday at Augusta, when he skipped the ball off the water on the 16th hole, and ball wound up in the hole. These guys are insanely talented, and I’m reminded of why I quit playing a long time ago. They get hole-in-ones when they intentionally hit the ball in the water. I was life and death to break 100.

It takes a tremendous effort to become good, then stay good at golf. Putting is fun, chipping is kind of fun, watching the ball you just hit go in the woods is no fun at all. Best part of golf, by the way, is driving the cart. Driving a golf cart is tremendous.

5) When CBS announces the field for the NCAA basketball tournament in March, they should recruit CNN”s John King to reveal the field on his touch-screen. The guy was masterful running between screens on Election Night; he’d be good showing us the brackets.

4) College football games postponed/cancelled this weekend:
LSU-Alabama, Auburn-Miss State, Georgia-Missouri, Ohio State-Maryland.

3) Actress Jennifer Garner has an excellent agent; no idea who it is, but she is always on TV in commercials for Capital One and Neutragena. She does more commercials than Baker Mayfield.

2) Get well soon to Michigan State hoop coach Tom Izzo, Arkansas football coach Sam Pittman, both of whom tested positive for COVID recently.

1) Guy named Dan LeBatard has been on ESPN radio/TV for long time; I’ve never been a big fan of his show, but he did something pretty cool this week.

A long-time producer on LeBatard’s show was recently laid off, one of 300 people laid off by ESPN. No one saw this coming, and LeBatard was annoyed— he re-hired the guy, and is paying him out of his own pocket. That is loyalty; remains to be seen if the show will be staying on ESPN for much longer.

***************************

Friday’s Den: Random stuff with weekend here……

If you watched the Odd Couple TV show back in the day, this should ring a bell: today is November 13, the day Felix Unger was asked to leave his place of residence.

One of my all-time favorite TV shows, it revolved around two divorced guys who shared a New York City apartment. Tony Randall/Jack Klugman made it a memorable show.

13) Colts 34, Tennessee 17:
— Colts outscored Tennessee 21-0 in the second half- they blocked a punt for a TD.
— Indy won three of its five road games this year.
— Colts are 5-0 when they score 28+ points, 1-3 if they score 23 or fewer points.
— Both teams are 6-3; they play again in two weeks.

— Titans are 2-3 in their last five games, after a 4-0 start.
— Over is 4-1-1 in Titans’ home games this season.
— Titans are 5-7-1 ATS in last 13 games as a home favorite.
— In last three visits to Nashville, Colts won 33-17/19-17/34-17.

12) Trevor Daniel was the Titans’ punter in this game, Tennessee’s third punter in three weeks. When Daniel came in to Titans’ facility to take his COVID test, he was wearing the uniform he wore while driving a FedEx truck, which was his job before the Titans signed him.

Daniel had a 17-yard punt in this game, then his next punt was blocked for a TD. He’ll probably be needing that FedEx uniform pretty soon, though the blocked punt wasn’t his fault. Maybe the special teams coach will be working at FedEx.

11) Thru nine weeks, here is how penalties compare, from year-to-year:
offensive holding: 2019- 565, this year- 280
offensive pass interference: 2019- 81, this year- 42

This is a positive development; no one pays to watch officials throw flags. The league always say they want more scoring, this is a good way to get more scoring.

11) AFC North teams are 7-0-1 SU against NFC East teams this year; Eagles-Bengals tie back in Week 2 is the only blemish on that record so far.

10) Through two weeks of MAC-tion, road teams are 7-4-1 ATS.

9) Indiana is favored over Michigan State this week, first time since 2002 that the Hoosiers are favored over Michigan State in football.

8) Boise State 52, Colorado State 21:
— Boise blocked a punt for a TD for their first score of the game.
— Boise also blocked a FG for a TD, blocked another punt for another TD, and scored a TD on defense. Colorado State’s defense didn’t play that badly.

7) When CBS unveils the field of 68 for the NCAA basketball tournament in March, they should recruit CNN’s John King to show the brackets on his touchscreen. Election Night had to be a long night for the TV pundits, but King and MSNBC’s Steve Kornacki did their best to keep us informed as to what was going on, from a numerical standpoint.

No way is it as easy to do as they make it look.

6) Brett Favre holds an NFL record, starting 321 consecutive games; Colts’ Philip Rivers is #2 on that list, starting his 244th consecutive game at QB last night.

5) Ivy League has cancelled winter sports for this year, so no Friday night basketball games on TV from that league, and one more at-large spot in the NCAA tournament.

4) ESPN2 had a high school basketball tripleheader on last night; first game was from Oak Hill Academy in Virginia, the famous prep school that has seen 35 of its players drafted by the NBA. They have those players’ college jerseys hanging on the wall in the Oak Hill gym.

Lebron James’ son played in the late game, not even sure if he was playing for his high school team or an AAU team, but it was high level basketball. The recruiting competition for his services should be pretty interesting.

3) This from ESPN’s Chris Fallica:

This is the first November week of college football since Week 12 of 2009 (Saturday, November 21, 2009) in which there is not a single matchup of AP ranked teams. That week, four ranked teams lost to unranked teams (three on the road).

2) Christmas commercials have started on TV; in one, a woman gives her husband this watch, looks like a FitBit, something small like that- she buys herself one too. He gives her a $40,000 pickup truck, and also buys himself one. Seems fair.

1) Daytime TV is horrendous, lot of contrived arguments to try and create interesting TV; this week, they were discussing whether Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence should go back to college next year, to avoid playing for the New Jersey Jets, who are currently 0-9. Oy.

First of all, the Jets have four first round picks in the next two drafts, nine picks in the first three rounds of those drafts- they’ll be improving fairly soon. If they drafted Lawrence and traded Sam Darnold, they’d acquire even more draft capital. Jets are going to improve a lot over the next couple of years.

Playing well in the New York/New Jersey area can be very lucrative. Jets used to have a QB who had a 60-61-4 record starting for them, throwing 170 TD’s, 215 INT’s. Those numbers don’t jump off the page, do they, but that guy is 77 years old now and he still does TV commercials.

You’ve probably heard of Joe Namath, who had two really good years before injuries took their toll on him. He won one Super Bowl title in New York and was set for life, which is why it would be a big mistake for Trevor Lawrence to pass up playing for the Jets.
