I Root For: Against USC
Location:

The lines set
Interesting last week, both Ucla and USC (hiss) were unranked teams beating ranked teams and both Ucla and SC were 3 and a half point FAVORITES. In fact sc went off at 6 and a half and easily covered. Two bookies said the following as to what they look for when they set the point spreads. Seems like WMU does pretty well in most of these categories
For Rood, points of emphasis are time of possession, turnover ratio, defensive numbers against the run (yards per carry) and how a team runs the ball at home and on the road.
Kornegay's rankings assess a team's efficiency: yards gained, yards allowed, opponents faced, how the quarterback is playing, third-down conversion success.
