Maybe all that ESPN Big East bashing is paying off at the betting window. So far, UCF, UConn and Boise have covered the spread. So did potential member BYU. And Temple looked good.

Maybe the betting public has a distorted view of Big East football courtesy of ESPN, and can't see the true strength.

Other games:

Navy +15.5 vs Notre Dame
Kentucky at Louisville -13
Texas St at Houston -36
Rutgers -20 at Tulane
San Diego St +14.5 at Washington
SMU +10 at Baylor

No line on Memphis/Tenn Martin or Chattanooga/USF.

I don't think the mods want too much talk about point spreads & gambling here (just a guess), but I agree 100%. The media's Big East bashing usually means that the Big East gets no respect in Vegas. So betting on the Big East teams is usually the smart move.
