Is Oregon St. +7 a Trap

I dont think the line would be like this unless the bookmakers know
something. This game should be a pickem. College kids are emotional and
there is a good change OSU lays an EGG. I think Boise rolls and wins by 3
td

    There is no such thing as a "trap" game. Or a game that is "too good to be
    true." For every dollar that is bet on Oregon St., there is a dollar on
    the other side that is just as sure it is about to turn into $2 as the
    Beaver bettor. This Boise team couldn't beat OSU last year when they had
    their big trio. I know they put 65 up on Idaho, but I could piece together
    a pick-up team here at work and post about 5 TD's on the Vandals. I agree
    that this line is way too high, but it is the mental state of OSU and the
    65 from last week that is keeping this game at (-8). It isn't because
    there is a conspiracy by the bookies nation-wide.

    So do you play Oregon State?

    I have a 1/2 unit on the Beavers. I think their passing game will give
    Boise fits, and I'm not sold on the Bronco offense just yet. We'll see
    what they do going against one of the best defenses in the nation. Good
    luck with your side!

    then yes, it was a trap game.
