Quote:I like what the Jags have done over the past few days, overall, but it just goes to show you that those moves, although in quantity, are small potatoes in the scheme of things. The 4.5 O/U hasn't moved despite all of them. Thats telling. 

 

A little reality/ wake up call. 

 

The 4.5 is the oddmakers' guess at public opinion.   That's all it is.   As you know, all the oddsmakers try to do is split the bets so the house can't lose.   Once (if) people start putting money down on the over, that 4.5 will move up.   It's not the oddsmakers' opinion of how things stand, it's the oddsmakers' opinion of how they think the public sees things.  

 

Since all these signings happened in the last two days, I'd wait a few weeks before I call it a reality check.   Let people put some money down and move that number.
