Just took that bet with a co-worker - a long shot, but I think it might happen.

I honestly think those odds aren't high enough.

Should be about 100,000 to 1.

Vegas probably won't even have a pointspread listed for LSU-Towson, let alone a money line. That would likely be the biggest upset in the history of college football. Terrible value at 100:1.

I'd say there's a 1 in 100 chance that Towson will lose by less than 20 points.

Even that is being generous.

Man you are dumb. I would have put 20 bucks on 5,000-1. If that.

"If someone gives you 10,000 to 1 on anything, you take it. If John Mellencamp ever wins an Oscar, I am going to be a very rich dude."

Dmb bet, sure you win a little money if it happens. But aren't you going to hate yourself for winning money on LSU ruining their season?

I had money on Florida in 2003.

LSU was a 10 point favorite at a home day game with a wet field.

easy money.

Didn't matter.

still won the National Championship.

That was the only time I ever bet on a team playing LSU.
