However, I also don't make up theories out of whole cloth.

There is no way point shaving of any magnitude could have occurred without somebody finding out. If nothing else, the bookies would have screamed bloody murder if there was a consistent pattern of PSU games that didn't cover the spread. They watch the line like hawks.

In addition, the NCAA mooks may not be able to do much,but they do watch for any whiff of that kind of wrongdoing. Pedophilia may sail above their heads despite all the rumors over the years, but mess with the money and the bottom line and they are all over it!
