I haven't looked at anything, yet.  If you can get KU under 1.5 for even money, you almost have to play that.  Non cons are FCS, @Coastal Carolina, and @Duke so there isn't a sub 2 TD spread anywhere on the schedule for potential win #2.

To argue with myself...I don't know if I've thought about it enough, but it feels like super low win totals in a transfer portal world with instant eligibility seems riskier than in the past.  If KU finds a couple guys and some Buffalo players come over, there is a world where they're not THAT terrible and you're holding a sweat ticket.

Not exactly related but do you know of anywhere offering futures odds on teams making the CFP?  Not winning, but simply making it.  Looking to hedge an off-book bet I have with a dipshit friend.

Did this on FanDuel Sportsbook yesterday, but I’m in Colorado on vacation.  Can’t do it with them unless your state allows it.

I took over 7.5. However, that was -125.

I got Texas +125

aTm - 115

I looked at Kansas as mentioned above, it was only 1 win but it was -200.  I'll see if this moves prior to the season starting.

right now my book has KU 1.5 wins at O +180, U-220. I wont touch it, but given those odds i'd probably be more inclined to take the over. Lets say Leipold is a good coach (I have no idea, never watch Buffalo), can he find a way to beat 2 FCS schools?

We only play one FCS and the other two non cons are on the road...so getting to two wins is going to be pretty tough, it's why the under has been beat up to those prices.  If it gets north of +200 there is probably some value on the over.  You'd be expecting them to get the FCS win and spring a surprise at home among Tech, K-State, or WV...not impossible for 2/1.

This conversation is really depressing me.  Who needs a drink?

Max bet it , I think it's at -133 and my local won't let me bet more.  I've lost a ton of money betting Texas overs over the years.  This is a bet for Sark and a pretty questionable conference imo.

I make the Texas number 8 if anybody cares, so there isn't a play there for me.

Disclaimer: I'm good at college basketball and the NFL (and lately MLB but the track record is shorter).  If you've followed my plays here in those sports you shouldn't attribute any of that to college football, which I borderline suck at.

I'll bet you no juice giving you over 8 if you want it.

So essentially I win if Texas wins 9, you win if Texas only wins 7?  I'll have to think about it.  Number was better at 7.5. 😁

correct. And the price is better at 8 tho! :D

If you look at individual games, I believe we are favored in 10 (all except OU & ISU).  Seems like 7.5 should be attainable.

Yep, I've maxxed bet two books at that 7.5 number.

 

 

Any NFL futures look tasty?
