Odds to Win the B1G

For the non-gamblers out there, those odds are based on betting $100 to win what is shown in that table.  Looking at those odds another way, Ohio State is 1.5 to 1 to win the B1G, while NU has 33 to 1 odds to win the B1G.

Someone would have to translate to see how much these have changed from the OP




I think being tied with Iowa shows how confident people are in Frost. Iowa's playing weaker crossover opponents, and destroyed us the past 2 years. Or is there something I don't know - did they lose most of their starters?

 
Ohio State - Was 1st +150, now 1st -110

Wisconsin - 2nd +400, 2nd +250

Michigan - 4th +600, 3rd +400

Penn State - 3rd +450, 4th +500

Michigan State - 5th +1,000, 5th +1,200

Iowa - t-8th +3,300, t-6th +4,000

Nebraska - t-8th +3,300, t-6th +4,000

Northwestern - 6th +1,600, t-8th +8,000

Purdue - 7th +2,000, t-8th +8,000

Minnesota - 13th +5,000, 10th +10,000

Indiana - t-8th +3,300, t-11th +30,000

Maryland - t-8th +3,300, t-11th +30,000

Illinois - 14th +10,000, t-13th +100,000

Rutgers - t-8th +3,300, t-13th +100,000

So the betting is making things top-heavy, which is probably legit.  Huskers move up in the list but getting longer odds.

 
Northwestern moving down. Notable primarily because as time has gone on it appears more and more likely Thorson is back for the opener.

I am going to ask a question because my understanding of sports gambling is best described as rudimentary...

So in the above graph, if I were to put $100 down on the Huskers winning the Big 10, the payout would be $33,000 or $40,000 depending on which line you bet on?

Close.  Those lines assume you are betting $100.  So a $100 bet on Nebraska would win $3,300 or $4,000.  But you'd have to bet $110 on Ohio State to win $100 now.
