And FWIW, I don't look at teams, I look at numbers. Looking at teams can get you in a world of shite when it comes to betting sports.

I think he was alluding to "squares" (and I hate that term) that just think historically that teams like Georgia are awesome and Missouri sucks, so UGA should blow them out and take UGA -10.5. That's a bad number being taken on no merit.

Also possibly alluding to getting value on the line(s) instead of focusing solely on the teams. (IE: UGA line opens at -9, moves to -13. Take Mizzou +13 for value and avoid an inflated UGA line.)

Just my speculation about his comment. Take it fwiw.

It means that I don't give a rats arse what name is on the front of the jersey. If I can find value in a line, I play it, if not, I don't. And fwiw, I have Georgia as a 6.5-7.5 point favorite. So at 10+, your damn right im going to play Mizzou.
