Significant betting line movement in the past hour for The Game
The line has been at Ohio State -6.5 all week after initially opening at -7.5. Within the past hour the line has fallen to -5.5 at most sports books, with Caesars Palace giving us the most favorable odds at -5. I can't imagine the line would be tightening if the insider buzz was that O'Korn was starting.

Update 6:45 PM EST: Two more sports books (in addition to Caesars) now have the line at -5. Update 10:30 AM EST: Twelve sports books now have the line at -5.5 or lower. Two have it at -4.5.

Hot take: UM Surgeon Sews Denard Robinson's Legs on to Wilton Speight's Torso. Speight Recovers in Mere Hours...
November 25th, 2016 at 4:25 PM ^
Well, the problem with Speight is on his torso, so how much is that really gonna help?
Can we get a re-do with Denard's legs and Tom Brady's torso & head?! With Denards's dreads of course, cuz how badass would that QB look??!!
November 25th, 2016 at 4:28 PM ^
How about Speight's decision making in Devin Gardner's everything else?
November 25th, 2016 at 4:57 PM ^
If going with Gardner's body can we get the ribs of The Wolverine?
November 25th, 2016 at 9:37 PM ^
Tom Brady still had 1 game of eligibilty left. NCAA approved him playing tomorrow !
Go Blue!
November 25th, 2016 at 11:34 PM ^
That's cool if OSU wants to trot out their future NFL HOFer too

How about Devin Gardner with Denard's dredlocks and Brian Griese's offensive line?
November 25th, 2016 at 7:16 PM ^
There is never a reason for white guy dreads.
November 25th, 2016 at 7:30 PM ^
Dreads just chaps my ass

Freedom, mother fucker!

You forgot that the surgeon also added the elective Drew Henson arm and Tom Brady decision making part of his brain not occupied by Gisele.
November 25th, 2016 at 4:32 PM ^
Or Harbaugh's petition to the NCAA for one more game of eligibility was finally approved.
November 25th, 2016 at 5:33 PM ^
Tell ya what - Jimmy could STILL chuck that ol' pigskin a quarter-mile

In that case, I feel much better. Thank goodness for the betting public!
Except for the exact opposite. I couldn't give a rat's ass about the betting lines.

A move this big isn't the general betting public. It's the sharps moving the line with heavy action - small bets don't move the line.

Sarcasm was obvious, coupled with professed indifference to the actual betting line movements. Except that the sarcasm missed the mark because the betting public had nothing to do with the line movement.

yes. a handicapper.
November 25th, 2016 at 9:25 PM ^
Why would anybody bet on a game without knowing the QB situation? That doesn't make any sense to me. I guess I can see betting on the team with a healthy QB, but not the team with an unknown QB situation.
November 25th, 2016 at 5:05 PM ^
The public doesn't move a spread this quick, you must be as square as they come.

Sweet mercy. What's with you people? It was a joke. Even I can see that.

How about this....
Legs & Speed...Denard Robinson
Arm...Drew Henson
Heart...Devin Gardner
Brains...Tom Brady
Determination...Jim Harbaugh

I think Harbaugh has been doing some Jedi mind trick bs with Speight being "day to day". He's probably good to go.
I really need for us to win this game. Way more than the usual amount. A win might restore what little faith in humanity I have left.
GO BLUE!

The line isn't posted yet at Bovada. If so I would take Michigan +6.5 in a heartbeat. I think we'll win in dominant fashion.

bets? I assume that Las Vegas is just responding to where the money is being placed, and not moving the line based on any super-secret information about our starting QB.
