Any pattern with the Thursday additions? Last week they were 5-1

The Thursday picks are those that either didn't have a line on Monday or the line changed to a new price where I see value.

Unless the line has a big shift, I probably won't have a lot of confidence on the Thursday plays. In the long run, my best bets should be those that are listed at the top of Monday's picks.

I def see Clem moving to double digit favorites.

I bet Boston College (+10.5) early on Monday. For this site, I use the Monday mid-day lines at 5Dimes which is why (+9.5) is listed. Right now it's 9 or 9.5 at most sites.
