Why is the line moving so much ?

Smart money knows +13.5 for a home dog in a rivalry game was just too much. Lots of dollars coming in on UND to cover that spread.

I only have DraftKings, I rarely gamble....but they don't have that game. I would have put a little money on a 13.5 spread at the Alerus.

98% of the tickets for the game are sold, will be over 12,000. Huge rivalry game but it is also ND home deer opener and winter youth sports starting in full swing. Weird complaints.

Going to be an electric atmosphere. Hopefully it gets rocking early like it did last time the ag college was up here.

Instead of making excuses, why wouldn’t you make every effort to have the best atmosphere possible Saturday?

I already answered this question.  Because the universities are expected to pay everybody, provide every resource possible and basically give away every dollar possible to the programs now.  So they inturn have to gouge their fans/alumni way more than ever before.

Whether those 200 tickets get sold or not really don't matter to UND as they have made their $$$ and they won't make a difference in noise. Just more of a status thing to say it was sold out.

What excuse was made?
As was already stated, with the current environment in college athletics, every source of revenue is being examined and pushed as far as it can before it turns into a negative ROI. Being that close to a sell out a few days before the game tells me they priced it pretty appropriately to maximize revenue for the program.
Not saying I enjoy it as the end user (though if you have season tickets, it doesn't really matter) but I also understand it and appreciate it as the more revenue UND generates, the more there is to help put back into the athletic department. 

I guess they could have sold them for $20 and then there would be a huge secondary market for tickets but hey, I guess they would have 200 more people in the building?
If you want to make the argument that the tops of the far corners should have been a little bit less, they may have sold sooner and it would have been a minimal drop in revenue, I'd agree with that stance 100%. But I think they are going to get pretty close to that regardless.
