    The Official 2013 Gambling Thread!!!

    Here is the thread where you post what bets you like and the bets you made and how you have done. This isn't limited to college football but that what I am mostly interested in for gambling purposes. *Remember this is for entertainment purposes only*

    So the Golden Nugget put out lines on 230 games. this post on the pac12 blog has the link to the actual site but I can't go there because I am at work. So a few games I like (my pick is the first team mentioned):

    Utah +7.5 @ BYU (This will be 3 if not lower by game time). Get in now and get 4.5 extra points
    Michigan (pickem) vs ND
    LSU +2 @ Ole MIss
    Utah +19.5 @ USC

    Which ones do you like?

    I like both Utah games. But I rarely place sports bets, and never on (or against) Utah.

    Any .02 on a futures involving Texas A&M with the new Manziel allegations? Have you seen any line movement there as far as total wins are concerned? I don't know if Vegas keeps tabs of things like this, but will there be a team in the history of college football that sees a bigger handle on its games for a season than Texas A&M, provided Manziel is still eligible?

    Win total was 9.5. I think they have taken bets off the board since news broke

If he doesn’t play, Texas A&M’s projected regular-season wins would drop from 9.5 down to 7, according to William Hill bookmaker Jimmy Vaccaro. No less than a needle in the balloon for the team that has been bet more than any other to win the BCS title.

    Holy crap, that Oregon line is like receiving a blank check in light of the allegations against Tennessee. Oregon is going to win by 40.

    I'm not mocking you - didn't realize that was last week's line. Looks like the current line is about Oregon -27.

    Yahoo! just named Tennessee on Wednesday as one of the SEC schools with players who have taken money from Luther Davis.
    Tennessee plays at Oregon on Saturday.
    The Tennessee D-lineman (Couch) who is implicated has already been benched for the game. Coach cited "heat exhaustion" LOL.
