Following a win and a covered spread against Vanderbilt, Vegas has the Gamecocks staying in the win column as they prepare to take on the Appalachian State Mountaineers for the first time since 1988.
South Carolina opened as 4 point favorites, but the line since since shifted half a point in favor of the Cocks to where it currently stands at 4.5 points.
The over/under is set at 52.
Why was the line set at this number?
Honestly, I think it was perfectly placed.
All we know about Appalachian State is that they play very well against non-power 5 opponents and North Carolina, probably their most impressive win of the season (and that’s not really much of a compliment).
