Maybe there's a mod out there^ that can merge this thread with the We hate Deion Sanders thread maybe??? I think that's the name of it. Or something. Oh wait I got it. Let's also change the name of this thread to 'Obligatory 'Is Colorado a Rival' Thread!!!! Sweet!! Now just 1 meaningless thread instead of 2!!! Second game. We play in Minneapolis first. Back to back on the road to start. 1 Link to comment

Toe Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Both teams start the season with back-to-back P5 opponents. We play Minnesota first, Colorado plays TCU first, then we play Colorado. 1 1 Link to comment

I mean if you can throw down $20 on those odds the payout isn't bad and you haven't lost your shirt when they don't win a single game. Link to comment

Those futures are fun...me and a friend will pick 10 teams each season and bet on their win totals... 2 Link to comment

Some things they will let you do down to .50¢. I do that quite often for 9+ team parlays on hockey. Invariably lose 1 game But even a 10 team parlay doesn’t approach +25000 odds. Betting on CU to win it all next year is more sure to burn your money than lighter fluid and a match. I mean their o/u win total for the year is 3.5 2 Link to comment

brophog Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Generally speaking, season win totals are a pretty bad bet for the simple reason that you’ve tied your money up for most of the year. 1 Link to comment

Agreed. Plus the odds are similar to any point spread or over/under you can get on a single game. There’s no great payoff for being right on a -120 to +120 bet. But it is a much better chance of winning than +25000 on CU to win it all Having said that, I’ve tied up some money, and lost, betting Nebraska over season totals the last 3 years. Think I’ll do the under this year, then at least I’ll be happy one way or the other. 1 Link to comment
