Carolina 10o20
Miami 9o55
NY Giants 9u50


Under
Dallas 9.5o45

Can a mod move this to General Sports? I posted this here out of habit.

[Carbo Loading]

Over

Philadelphia 8 1/2
Cleveland 6 1/2
New England 10 1/2


Under

Chicago 9 1/2
Giants 9
Buffalo 6

[Sportsbstn]

Best play I see is UNDER 6 on the Packers, forget the 6.5 with heavy juice to the under, under 6 gets you plsu odds. This team will not crack 4 wins again this season.

[Vinho Tinto]

On a line like: Carolina 10o20

Can someone explain what the 20 represents?

[Vinho Tinto]

Over
Carolina 10
Cincinnati Bengals 8½
Philadelphia Eagles 8½

Under
New Orleans Saints 6½
New York Jets 6
Detroit Lions 6½

[CWiggum]

Overs:
New England Patriots 10½ (cake schedule, weak division, they win 11 by just showing up, and I think they get to 13 fairly easily)

Philadelphia Eagles 8½

Cincinnati Bengals 8½

Unders:
Buffalo Bills 6

Washington Redskins 9

Green Bay Packers 6½

[Plantiers Wart]

The letter following the number of wins represents "over" or "under" (the letter o or u) which signifies the side that is favored followed by the odds on wager. "20" in this case is an abbreviation for -120......30 would be -130, 40 is -140, etc.

For simplicity sake lets say you wish to wager the amount to win $100 on the Panthers to win more than 10 games. In this instance, you would need to risk $120 to win $100 because "over" 10 wins is favored against "under" 10 wins.

Look at the Arizona Cardinals who are 8u25. If you wish to win $100 on the under you would have to risk $125 to win that amount. On the flip side say you like the NY Giants to win greater than 9 games and their line is NYGiants 9u50. Since you are wagering on the underdog (under is the -150 favorite) you are likely getting +130 on your bet so you would only have to risk $77 to win your $100........if you choose to risk $100 you will win $130 if the NYGiants win more than 9 games.

Hope i didn't confuse you further.

Thanks HRB.

I learned betting lines from boxing a long time ago, but those letters and numbers were like sand script for me. Thanks again for clearing it up.

[Rick Burlesons Yam Bag]

The Pats over at 10.5 scares me for two reasons:

1) I think that they will drop an early season game because of all the Branch baloney and some of the dings and scrapes they have, and

2) I don't think that they will need to win their last two games. They will win the AFC East at 10-6.

They definitely have the talent that you would take the over, but I am gun shy.

[Clears Cleaver]

Over
Cincinnati Bengals 8½o65
Detroit Lions 6½o70
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 8o30


Under
Arizona Cardinals 8u25
Atlanta Falcons 8½u30

Geez, I am a pessimist

[SpacemanzGerbil]

Overs
Cincinnati Bengals 8½o65
Washington Redskins 9u45
New York Giants 9u50

Unders
Pittsburgh Steelers 10o
Buffalo Bills 6o15
Minnesota Vikings 8u40

I can't believe nobody is taking the under on PIT. Waffleburp has his appendix removed and that schedule is going to be tough.
