Does this ML mean that it pays $500 for every $100 bet on Florida State to beat Georgia?

And if that's the case, isn't that really appealing, what gives? Why is that line so unbalanced?

Because it's going to be a bloodbath.

Yes. Because UGA is favored to win the game.

Have you watched the two teams play this year? Specifically, have you watched FSU play the last couple of weeks?

They weren’t great with a healthy starting QB against one of the worst schedules in P5. Now they’re playing with a backup against arguably the most talented team in the country.

They gone get raped.

If it's a negative number, think "to win 100 dollars" after whatever negative number you're looking at. If it's a positive number, put "bet 100 dollars to win" before whatever number you're looking at.

The other best thing to remember is don't start betting on football. I wish I'd never started lol.

I mean if you can afford to lose it — because you likely will — it could be a nice sneaker bet. Never underestimate a highly motivated team against a team that doesn’t want to be there.
