Opened at OU -5 now -3 1/2 to -4 1/2. 66% are taking OU and 71% the under which is 53. Money line is 50/50. It all seems normal to me.

50/50, isn't that what the bookmakers want, so they have little risk and they get the 10% 'juice' from every wager?

Lines are set based on projected outcome and projected betting. Except in rare cases, the lines are set to get balanced action. The line typically moves based on the fact that actual betting is different than the expected betting. The lines can be taken down because of uncertainty surrounding injuries, especially to quarterbacks. In this game the injury situation with Martinez, Lee and Murray is enough to affect this. The likely explanation for the line shift in this game is that many bettors believe in the conspiracy, not "Vegas". Therefore more money than anticipated is being placed on OU, thus driving the line upward from where it started, making a bet on NU more attractive. This is an attempt by "Vegas" to get more money on NU. To be clear, when we say Vegas we are speaking of the guys in the back rooms who set the lines for the sportsbooks, right?

For anybody who heard Bo's press conference today, he said he thinks very hightly of the big 12 and ALL the people he has met through working in the big 12. He alos said the officating stuff was blown out of proportion "just human error" That's nice coach talk but I'm not buying it.

He likely vomited in his mouth a little when he said that.

He also said he thinks highly of Pederson.
