UPDATE 3 P.M. ET SATURDAY: As kickoff approaches, the Nittany Lions are laying 8.5 points in TwinSpires' college football Week 10 odds market. Penn State opened -10 and made a stop at -9 on the way to -8.5.

The Nittany Lions are seeing 58% of spread tickets, but 64% of spread money is on the Terrapins.

"Sharp play on Maryland +10 and +9," Lucas said. "The public is playing Penn State moneyline in all their parlays. A Penn State win/Maryland cover would be the worst-case scenario."

The total opened and is currently at 50, with 54% of tickets on the Under/53% of money on the Over.

UPDATE 1:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: BetMGM moved Penn State from -10.5 to -10 Tuesday, then Wednesday slid straight to -8.5, where the line sits now. Spread tickets are almost even, with a slight Nittany Lions lean, while 70% of spread money is on the underdog Terrapins.

The total opened at 50.5, peaked at 51.5 briefly late Thursday afternoon, then fell back to 50.5 (Under -115). The Over is getting 59% of tickets, while 59% of cash is on the Under.

UPDATE 3 P.M. ET MONDAY: Penn State (7-1 SU/6-2 ATS) got far more than expected from Indiana in Week 9. The Nittany Lions, 31-point favorites, needed a late TD to break a 24-24 tie, then got a safety to finish off a 33-24 victory.

Maryland (5-3 SU/3-5 ATS) is falling apart after a 5-0 SU start. In Week 9, the Terrapins closed as 14-point faves at Northwestern and were dealt a 33-27 outright loss.

Caesars hasn't moved off Penn State -10.5 on its college football Week 10 odds board. The price adjusted Sunday night to -10.5 (-105), before returning to -10.5 flat this morning.
