Betting Line for Huskers Wins at 9.5

[Mavric]

Would not have thought it would be that high....

 

[Red Five]

These are kinda meaningless if you can't see the juice on either side. I would guess the Nebraska under is at -150 or more.

[Lil' Red]

That Ohio State line seems low to me.

While I think NU goes 10-2...I still am a bit surprised to see it at 9.5 I was thinking 8.5 but hey...what do I know?

[Sargon]

Holy cow. I expected 8. Vegas must love a year 2 Mike Riley.

This makes (a little) more sense:

 

[Red Five]

Looking into this a bit more, Nebraska is -175 on the under. Meaning you have to bet $175 to win $100 if you take the under 9.5. The over 9.5 is +135, so by betting $100 you would win $135.

 

Ohio St over 9.5 is -195, while their under 9.5 is +155.

So, the Huskers are only going to win 7-8 games before winning the B1G championship and our bowl games?

Could you imagine how the boards would melt down should that happen? On one hand, a B1G Championship and BCS Bowl win. Which would be huge.

 

On the other hand, Riley went 7-5 with this schedule and team, which wouldn't be that much of an improvement from 2015.

 

At that point, you probably just shut the boards down for a week and reroute the domain to Disney.com or something.

So if the line is 9.5 for reg season+ccg+bowl, then its almost the equivalent to a 9-win regular season, isn't it? No guarantee we even make the ccg, and less than 50% chance of winning it if we do make it IMO. Not knowing who the bowl opponent would be is worth maybe 0.5 wins.

A 7-5 team winning the Big Ten? We better install the barge.

The 9.5 is only for the regular season. Not for CCG, bowls, or playoffs.

I'd take the overs.

Interesting. I go to Vegas every summer and bet win totals. Those totals always exclude CCG/Bowl/Playoffs. Must be an online or 5dimes thing.

 

I went 2-1-1 last year.
