Football early line moves
These are the college and pro football line moves in the "lottery" at the Stardust on the Las Vegas Strip on Saturday
morning. The opening lines are usually put up on Sunday nights, but with the tragic events of last week and cancellation of this past weekend's games, the Stardust decided to put up the lines early. The chart shows the team that drew the money, the opening line, the adjusted line after 90 minutes (since that's the timeframe I used last week when the Sunday night game went to
halftime), and the opposing team:
