Do we open as favorites against Florida? (Updated, opens at UF-1, moves to UT-3)

[bigdaddy]

Vols -1.5 my guess

 

[KBVol]

We're the better team.

Doesn't appear to matter in the Florida series. We've had better teams many times in the last 25 years and still lost. I'm sure Vegas will have Florida favored as they should.

 

[CountVolcula]

Because we are better.

Based on what?

 

[jasonvol18]

Vols will come out -3 after today's performance. Our SOS is probably about #8 right now, UF hasnt been tested.

They played Ala, so yea they have been tested. Probably UF -4.

 

[jasonvol18]

We're the better team.

We have the better HC but UF is the more talented from top to bottom.

 

[tm3]

UF is really bad.

UT favored by 6, wins by 17+.

 

[KoachKletus]

We have the better HC but UF is the more talented from top to bottom.

So, you would rather have Driskel instead of Worley?

 

[WolfenVOL]

Who cares, remember Georgia was favored by 17. How correct were they there?

 

[triad280]

Ut-6

 

[TennesseeFan07]

If Florida is favored, I'll put 500 dollars down on Tennessee to beat it.

 

[daj2576]

So far the Golden Nugget's "Annual Early Lines" that came out this summer have been pretty close to the lines offered this fall. They had Oklahoma -19, UGA -17, and have Florida at -4.5. I would not be surprised if the line is right around Florida -4 to open.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Based on what?

The fact that they suck

 

[VolinArizona]

Highly unlikely. Florida -7 would be my guess.

No chance. Will be anywhere between tennessee -1 and Florida -2

 

[cbbowlingmd]

Anyone think so? I'm gonna go on a limb and say UT is a 2.5 point favorite.

Who cares? Ask Vegas how the did on the UT-Utah State and UT-GA lines.

 

[loggervol]

yes!!!!

 

[CountVolcula]

The fact that they suck

We ain't exactly world beaters ourselves

This game is far from a given

I hope we blow their damn doors off

 

[VolinArizona]

Who cares? Ask Vegas how the did on the UT-Utah State and UT-GA lines.

The lines aren't trying to predict outcomes.

 

[1974Vol]

The lines aren't trying to predict outcomes.

Even money that's the truth.

 

[cbbowlingmd]

The lines aren't trying to predict outcomes.

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought we were having a discussion on lines. :unsure:

 

[golfballs]

I said this last week and I think it still happens. Opens as a Pick Em

 

[alaVOL]

Based on what?

My Orange tinted glasses maybe, but usually I try to be honest in my judgement. I really believe we are getting better each week and Florida is coming to our house when we are really hungry for a win over them. We will beat the gators by at least a touchdown. :good!:

 

[volmanbill]

Line opens at UF-1.

Stunning

 

[Wood Man]

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought we were having a discussion on lines. :unsure:

I quit doing lines back in the late 80s.

 

[zreeves]

Apparently Vegas doesn't think that we can win until it happens either
