Where do you get this number from? Stop treating "your model" as gospel.

And money line betting isn't more or less fiscally sound than spread betting.

I understand Doughty's efficiency numbers and all that but that's a product of mismatches on the edges, they're just not there tonight. Not to mention their Oline is very overmatched.

And in the other side of the ball, LSU could average 4.5/5 yards a carry easily as well as having an advantage over both DBs.

Wow Missouri. Trash

Weather looks terrible in BR, glad I gave my tickets away. Hopefully no injuries as a result.

I hope you're being sarcastic. Either that or you didn't actually watch the game.

And why would that lose money in the long run? Kinda like duke v army is "chasing steam" or Clemson was a "square play", dipshit?
