Record YTD 5-3

South Carolina +1.5

The #18 ranked Arkansas Razorbacks travel to South Carolina today 3/5 looking to bounce back from a 17 point loss to Kentucky last Saturday. This is a sandwich game before they host Lsu this Saturday. On the flipside the Gamecocks are coming off a win vs Miss St at home last Saturday. That snapped a two game losing streak at the hands of Texas A&M and Alabama, respectively. This is South Carolina’s last home game of the season and they should bring everything they have to the table tonight. Frank Martin is a passionate coach and one of his strong suits is motivating, and this is the perfect situation to get his players to give it their all vs a ranked team. Motivation is not a factor for Arkansas who has relatively little hanging in the balance and will be more focused on their homecoming in two days vs LSU.

Vegas opened the line at Arkansas -1.5 and was instantly bet up to -2.5 and -3 this morning. Since then we have had some buy back including myself, moving the line back to -1.5, but with this being the most heavily bet game of the day we are seeing the public bet this back up to -2. Well over 85% of bets are backing Arkansas in what can be deemed a trap game. This line looks to be low and it is but I’m taking the Vegas side on this one and backing an experienced motivator in Frank Martin vs a team in a trap situation. I recommend waiting until just before tipoff to grab the best line for Gamecock backers.

Lets crack em!
