Oh wait, their pitcher was suspiciously scratched before the game


Yeah I forgot about that. That’s the only thing that makes sense.

Some books took down LSU/Purdue because of all the players out and the line blowing up like 8 points from where it opened.

If “Vegas” doesn’t give a crap about properly vetting their college baseball lines they should stop offering them. College baseball is by far the one sport they don’t know shite about. It’s been like that since we were all using 5dimes.

Very much so and there are no specific details as to what was suspicious.

Yeah college baseball seems to be relatively easier money for me this year. Wish they had more run lines, but haven’t seen them on DK in months it seems. It’s pretty much ML or overs.

Line was -1.5

I was definitely getting nervous/pissed in the 9th

DK had run lines and totals up until like week 2 of sec play, probably got crushed on them, then tucked their tails and stopped offering it like a bunch of pussies

Exactly! Sounds like someone ran off with the house’s money on Friday night.

My theory - Bama has one kid from Ohio. Bama’s Friday night starter was a late scratch. Player relays insider information to fade Bama to friends and family in Ohio who then make suspicious max bets.

That time Houston was a big dog to Southeastern in the Sunday morning 1-1 game of the 2014 Baton Rouge regional TYFYS

Would it be easier to stomach in Ohio if they shanked a FG as time expired?

Has to be due to late pitching scratch and money coming in before it was announced
Most teams wouldn’t do that the way bama did
In college it’s an unwritten rule to give some sort of notice to the opponent
I have no idea when bama told lsu he was not going to start

My guess. Odd patterns before the scratch then a bunch hedging as it tightened up

I guess LSU fans dominated the betting lines. Crews, Tanks and the boys are so clutch, and every LSU fan knows it.

Tiger fans loaded up. Vegas lost a boatload and thought “c’mon, LSU’s 3rd string catcher is hitting clutch 3-run bombs? Bama must be betting against themselves and tossing games.”
