Tcu-AIR FORCE open -6'; current -1'
TCU-Smu -12; -10
Tcu-SAN DIEGO ST -6'; -5'
Tcu-Byu @Arlington -7; -2'
BOISE ST-Tcu -13'; -14'
Since the lines opened a week ago, all have moved away from the Frogs, by an average of almost 3 points, with big moves in the AFA and BYU games.
Obviously this means little this far in advance (and the one game where an early line is reasonable- Baylor- isn't even listed), but it interesting how the early action seems to think the Frogs were overrated by the bookies who set the opening lines. I think people look at returning starters and sometimes overemphasize that number, and that may be happening here.
