Their odds are fine because not many people have money on Florida. And I think they have maxes on how much your payoff for a bet is so they could change the odds before somebody could really make them pay.

But yeah, those odds are not consistent with the others. They have LSU getting 300/1 despite us likely not getting into the playoff even if we win out. Iowa at 200/1. Iowa is 5 times more likely to win than Florida? Plus, as was discussed, other books have Florida around 300/1. 1000/1 just isn't where they should be. Its an oversight that they won't care to really look at until they start getting heavy action on Florida.

5dimes will probably get paid either way. They are making up for their bad line there by the fact that a lot more optimistic Mississippi State fans are taking them at 13/2.

I'm hoping nobody actually put even a penny on UF to win out, even at 1 billion-to-1 odds
