Nothing like an early season gift line for road favorite. LA at Atlanta should probably be on the board at LA -7.5, but with an open of -3.5, having now been bet up to -4.5/-5 range it still ranks as a gift.
Take LA Clippers -4.5 (good to -5.5)

While the public money continues to pour in on the 20th ranked Fresno State Bulldogs in a game that could very likely decide the WAC championship, one has to wonder if next week’s match up against USC is creeping into their minds.
Boise State had the easier schedule this year, but with an offense pounding out over 46 points per game in conference play, they still deserve their props.
Fresno State is a bigger team and are unbeaten at home this season, but this game is essentially even matched. 10 points is a gift here and we see it coming out in one of two different ways, a field goal win either way, or a complete thrashing of the Bulldogs in a big upset thanks to the Looking Ahead factor.
As for the total, it has dropped 4 points from the opening line to 60/60.5. We are comfortable with the Over at that number and are projecting a final tally in the neighborhood of 68.
Take Boise State -10
Take the OVER at 60
