I enjoy vices that have destroyed lesser men, and quitters.  If I didn't have an extended family to support I'd bet everything I own on Texas -12.5 or whatever the fuck the spread was when I placed my bet.

  • I admire the talent that's been built up in Austin, but I honestly think ASU has got you beat. Unless you're talking about football players.  Then Texas comes out on top.

  • If y'all want to make this an OnlyFans girl battle instead of a football game, ASU is going to kick your fucking ass.

  • They allowed Josh Heupel at Ohio State's stadium. I don't see the distinction.

College Football Playoff betting action report: ‘All the money is coming in on Texas’

By Ben Fawkes

7h ago

The college football world was hoping for a March Madness type of feel for the first-ever 12-team College Football Playoff, with upsets galore. Instead, the four first-round matchups underwhelmed, providing plenty of time for holiday shopping. Favorites went a perfect 4-0 against the spread, including three fairly non-competitive performances by underdogs Indiana, SMU and Tennessee.

Will the next batch of games be more competitive? Sportsbooks and the public don’t seem to think so. At least in two cases.

Both Penn State-Boise State and Texas-Arizona State feature double-digit spreads favoring the lower-seeded Nittany Lions and Longhorns. And the latter has been an especially popular pick with the public. The Longhorns -12.5 is the most-bet side at BetMGM nationally in terms of total dollars as of Monday afternoon.

“All the money is coming in on Texas,” Seamus Magee, a BetMGM trader, wrote in a text message to The Athletic. “We need Arizona State to cover +13.5.”

The enthusiasm for the Longhorns extends to the futures market as well. Remember that massive $1.5 million wager on Texas to win it all at +390 odds? The ticket is still out there at Caesars Sportsbook.

Interestingly, the Longhorns’ opponent, Arizona State — the biggest underdog among the College Football quarterfinal matchups — is getting the most love from sharp bettors. The Athletic talked to several bookmakers who had taken sharp action on No. 4 Arizona State – which had gotten as high as a 14-point underdog at some books against No. 5 Texas – to push the line down to -12.5 or -12.

John Murray, the executive director at The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, told us he received a wager on Arizona State +13.5 from a “very respected player.”

Even though respected money has come in on Arizona State to cover, sportsbooks will likely need the Sun Devils to do just that, as public bettors are piling on Texas.

“We would love to see ASU cover, and then Texas win the game, so we get our Arizona State liability off the futures book,” Magee added.

While the Texas game will be huge for the books, it isn’t the only game in town. We chatted with multiple bookmakers to break down where the betting action is on the other three College Football quarterfinal matchups.

 

$1.5 million on a +390 bet would be a nice payout

Really? Not blowing anyone, just saying that ASU is actually becoming relevant again. But you do you! I’m too old for Surly sarcasm.

Hook’em!!!

When was ASU ever relevant?

Wife surprised me by sending me to the game tomorrow -- see you bastards in Atlanta! 

Is anyone meeting up or tailgating before the game? anyone going to Hudson Grill? Or is there a better place or group? I’m in town so I didn’t know if there was any big group doing anything. I’ve got tickets obviously but what are people doing from 10-12?

I really disagree. Why give the #1 defense in the country extra juice? Yes of course our guys will want to win anyway, but “no one can stop me” is dumb. Under promise and over deliver. His players are chirping like they’re Muhammed Ali and yet they haven’t earned shit

You disagree that you want your players to believe they’re the best going into each game?

Whatever you say, bud.

It’s dumb to say it publicly when you’re way overmatched.

They didn’t say it publicly. The coach said those guys think that.

You could argue the QB said it when he really said he wants to show he’s the best.

But my original post simply said you want your guys thinking that going in.

They both said it directly to the press. What are you talking about?

A little harsh. Some people consider Nebraska to have classic uniforms.

Somewhere that is far from the Chattahoochee River.  Right. RIGHT...

She's a certified badass. She surprised me in 2005 with Rose Bowl tickets for me and my buddy. That game turned out alright, so I feel pretty good about tomorrow.

Also, are there any bars adjacent to bodies of water nearby?

I think it’s clear that I disagree that I want my players disrespecting the other team in the press a day before the game. It’s not just self confidence or locker room hype. Maybe, just maybe, it’s stupid to be a 2 td underdog and insult the best defense in the country. Surely they’d rather be taken lightly or overlooked. But maybe you’re right. Let’s ask the #1 defense to put their pride into every tackle.

"Maybe we beat them by 21." kind of worked out OK.

I've been tracking the Texas Football instagram follower count for the last few years.  It took off in follower count since we started winning 10+ games and we've breached 1M followers recently from like 600k a few year ago.  You are wrong regarding Texas' brand.

Hogwash. Nobody gives a damn about winning. They just want to see candor from the players during press conferences. That's what will grow your brand. Just ask Helobious.

We just better win or I'm gonna lose my shit  😁 big win no xanax
