Pick Ideas

Central Michigan spread: price-sensitive lean

Consider CMU only at -2.5 or better; with a projection near a three-point margin, pass if the line moves past that threshold.

Total: no pregame edge at the current number

With the available total roughly 152.5–153.5 against a projection near 153, wait for live play rather than force an over or under.
