I hate to admit it , but sometimes I bet against LSU in big games....if we win, I don't care about the bet/money...if we lose, I'm still pissed, but at least I have something to show for it.

That said, I have LSU ML against Wisconsin.

I can't do that at all. I won't enjoy the victory as much.

Book makers are supposed to beat the average gamblers therefore I would go against what most of you are saying here which is under 51. However I would go with LSU -4 or -5 as the bookies are trying to give more points to Wisc to make the money spread out even to win with the 10% juice. That tells me 2 things, its either LSU big time or the bookies will ride it out without it spread evenly and either lose their arse with all the money being bet on LSU or win big if Wisc upsets LSU.

Everyone thinks the under but Wisc will score about 17-24 points as their RB will break one kinda long one and will score on another run play, they will get a couple field goals- thats 20 points.

LSU, on the other hand will shred that young Wisc DL and LF & Co. will run over, around, and through Wisc for about 250 yards, and about 80 yards from passes in the flat to RB or to the TE. That all will open the downfield passing game to the tune of 170 yards (470-500 Total Yards for LSU). That will account for an arse whipping and 38-41 points, thus over 51....

Not a gambler, but if I were, this is how I'd do it. I'd either be paying for a win (unless the opponent beats the spread, then I win the bet too), or getting some money for a loss (unless we beat the spread and still lose, which can't happen here).
