Quote:No, Wilner picked us to beat the current spread... to his credit. His quote:
Oops, not sure how I missed that. I've never seen him pick by the spread later in the week. It's odd that he chose to do it on this one with a 4 pt spread when he's used the opening spread in the past despite much bigger line moves. A quick check of how he did other games shows that he used the opening lines for UtahvsSC, ColvsOr, and CalvsASU.
While I'll defend his AP rank voting oddities, I can't explain away this...
He will occasionally use the updated lines, I don't follow lines at all so I have no idea how often, but he's definitely done it before.

Yeah, he usually does it if the line has changed by a large amount or changed which team was favored between when it opened and he posts (like it did with us this week, 4 points is a big swing).
