Pittsburgh: The Week That Was

Line Movement
The Hokies opened up as 16.5-point favorites and that number can be had in most places still. Some shops have jumped the number up to -17 and there is a good possibility most will hot that number by gametime.
The early total opened at 44 and was quickly bet down to 42 and that is where most other books opened their total at as well.
Odds: UNC +16 | ML: +600 | O/U 43.5
Odds: UNC -16 | ML: -800
Line Movement
The line movement has not been much as the Tar Heels opened as one to two-point favorites and the line has risen slightly to -2.5 with a -3 out there as well. This is a surprising line move as most money has come in on Florida St. yet the line is going the opposite way.
The total opened at 48 and has remained steady.
Odds: FSU +3.5 | ML: +115 | O/U 48
Odds: UNC -2.5 | ML: -135
