BYU +3.5 (Online byu is -1 point instead of getting 3.5 at most sites now)
So I was also considering this team also instead of one of the above but didnt think it would pay more but if you guys tell me it does ill take one off and add this one.
New Mexico State +2.5 (Online they are spotting -2)
Sign up for a 5Dimes account and log in to view their lines, then use the dropdown boxes. They give adjusted odds, especially for national TV games, that you can use to approximate your edge.
Generally, moving off the 3 and 7 are pretty valuable. Moving from 10 to 3.5 is a huge move, moving from +3.5 to -1 is big, moving from +2.5 to -2 is meh, you don't cross any key numbers, and crossing the 0 is overrated.
I guess it's better than just "meh" but don't get caught up in crossing the 0. For example I don't think going from -2 to +1 is enough to overcome the huge edge on a parlay card, but going from +3.5 to +1 might be.
I'd suggest checking out Sharp Sports Betting and Weighing The Odds in Sports betting as well. Buy both on Amazon for like $30 combined and start reading.
