The line moving in Stanford's favor is a bit surprising to me, but maybe they feel the combination of Stanford being at home and Oregon on the road means that line was a bit too aggressive. I've also heard of betters intentionally betting against their choice early to move the line, only to place a much larger bet the other way, no idea if this is an example of that, but who knows. I think over the past years with Shaw, there have been a few seasons where all seemed lost early on, only for Stanford to go on a nice run and finish the year at 9+ wins somehow. That being said, this is probably the lowest confidence I've had in a Stanford team in a while. I hope Shaw proves my doubts wrong again.
