Vegas has UT favored

[Power T-Rev]

UT was favored by 7 when it opened and it's now at 6.5. Over/under is 50 down from 52.5 with 70% betting on UT covering the spread

Sounds about right to me. I expect a very close game.

I figured Vegas put the number at 7 thinking, in part, that Tennessee fans/betters would come in and bet the number up. Yet, it has dropped. Guess I was wrong. Interesting.

spread is 50 wtf

I think he meant over/under was 50.

 

[UTVOLKeith]

did you mean over under

you dont cover the over/under it just happens

 

[UTVOLKeith]

This tells me the game will be about 45-3

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

This tells me the game will be about 45-3

Go ahead and bet on that.

 

[UTVOLKeith]

Go ahead and bet on that.

I am gonna take 3x the cover that will give me about 1-2 odds

I got to make it to vegas first.

I'm going big on it.

I mean on Tennessee to win by 42. And how does over/under blow?

So what does this mean for people who don't gamble? Tennessee is going to whip dat ass? Or squeak by? Or..

According to Vegas, squeak by. They are right a lot more than they're wrong. And they expect it to be close to 28-21.

actually i meant 2-1

why did you not catch that most egregious mistake

I think most of us knew what you meant lol.

Nobody ever knows what you're talking about.

I'd imagine that Tennessee will manage to cover, if only by a few points.

 

[DERELICK_MY_VOLS]

Wow.....did not realize Utah State had a SEC caliber defense to shut down SEC caliber offensive athletes :dunno:

 

[Catbone]

I'd have Utah State winning if it was at Utah State. The game will be close.

 

[CarbonVol]

I've got Vawls by 3 TD's I'd say 1st quarter will start slow just getting the jitters out. Then we will unload on them.

 

[cbbowlingmd]

Is this the same group saying W Ky was gonna be close? Good Lord.

We win by 14+.

Out of curosity I googled it. Vegas odds makers miss the spread by more than 7 points more than 60% of the time in NFL games and they are supposedly the easiest games to determine spreads for.

Wow, only 30% of the people are idiots? I would have thought it would be much higher.

All USU has is Keeton. Some think he is the next Vick. I expect a UT win by at least 2 TD's.

Im sitting here in Vegas this weekend. The $s will move as we get closer to kickoff. Lots of ?s about both teams so its not surprising to see a 7 point spread at this point. What this really means is the numbers guys don't see USU as that bad, nor us all that good. They don't follow it like we do, they assign #s to variables and just go with their formulas and let the money float the odds afterwards. I think we're easily better than 7 pts over them, will put some $s down closer to kickoff if it stays that way.
