Have you ever bet against Nebraska?

I'm kind of interested in checking out the online betting thing. I wouldnt bet the house, only small stuff. A few games each year I think the Huskers will lose for sure... if the point spread is right, why not.

Like anything else it can be fun in moderation. A friend of mine and I do it every year, we put a certain amount in an on-line account - ususally like 100 dollars - and see who has the most at the end of the year. We put a 10 dollar cap on each game (well, 11 actually but you see my point)

To the question, yes, sort of. I've bet NU against the spread. If I think NU will win, but not necessarily win by 30 points for example, I don't really consider that betting 'against' them. And if they do happen to cover some ungodly point spread, so much the better.

Cool, cool.. thanks dawg. Sounds exactly what I was thinking.

I agree. If I think the Huskers will win, but not by 17 points (example), I'm betting against the spread. I think ppl interpret it that its betting against NU, even though I want Huskers to win.
