NUance Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Someone's REALLY hoping for an Auburn win: There will be many nervous Auburn fans Monday night as they watch their Tigers take on Florida State in the VIZIO BCS National Championship, but Mark Skiba is an odds-on favorite to be among the most skittish. Last January, Skiba's father was on vacation in Las Vegas when he placed a $100 bet for his son on Auburn to win the title game at 500-to-1 odds. The team's thrilling finishes against Georgia and Alabama, and a loss by Ohio State to Michigan State in the Big Ten championship game, resulted in the Tigers landing in Pasadena opposite the top-ranked Seminoles. 500-1 for Auburn at the beginning of the season? That was a pretty good bet. They only had three tough games on their sched: aTm and LSU on the road and Georgia at home (they to lost LSU). And then the SEC championship game. Quote Link to comment

Except for the part where they couldn't beat Miss St., Arky, Ole Miss or Vandy last year. Quote Link to comment
tschu Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Despite me picking Auburn to win, I got FSU when you could still get it at -8.5 a few days ago. Up to 10.5. During the Sugar Bowl? looks like I placed it on 1/2/2014 at 10:01 p.m. LOL Quote Link to comment

NUpolo8 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 FSU is really goddamn lucky it's not 14-0 Auburn right now. Sure td pass dropped and a pick six was dropped. Quote Link to comment
