Giving Kent 21.5 is a little bit generous after that win over Rutgers. Especially for a rivalry game.

Go Beefs!  Nice to see them favored, Vegas is pretty good at what they do.

Why no line on CMU v. WMU?  I usually only see this with FBS v FCS games, but I'm not a gambler, so I don't really understand all this stuff.  For instance, I still don't understand the "over/under" numbers.

No line because it's too close to call at this point. It will probably sway toward CMU at home before the end of the week if that's the case.

Over/Under is the combined total points added from both teams.

Say the Over/Under for Ohio and Miami was 50. You bet the score is going to be somewhere under 50, say 23-20. However, you lose if they combine to score over 50, say 33-30.

Don't get me started on the .5s.

Added the WMU/CMU line. I think maybe they were waiting to see who would start at QB for WMU.

Thanks, GoCats, now I understand the delay in the line for CMU-WMU, and I think I've actually got a handle on over/under.

Attaboy, OCF.

Now, just be sure, when looking online for the Penn St. line that it is for 2012 and not for some game 5 years ago.
