Solid. But we need to sort out our turnover margin. Not good.

It's easy to pad stats when you haven't played anyone

That would make sense if you didn't give up 34 to UAB....

when an Anthony Jennings led LSU team is the best team you've played, I don't think you have any room to talk

Most of the yards and points y'all gave up were to UAB. I'm just sayin'

Arkansas and South Carolina would each beat LSU by half a hundred.

If stats mattered then LSU would have run through us with Fournette and beat us handedly.

I'll listen to Vegas, who currently has us at -2.5.

Also you're school didn't even use up their allotment. That's telling as well.

Nonsensical. Also think you meant "handily."

You have no idea how Vegas works; delusional grinders alone could run the spread to -50. Vegas spread moves with betting, not with any type of logical trend to suggest the game's outcome.

Correct that it is telling -- telling that you need to get a better handle on the English language.

So you're saying that a few people from Mississippi could bet enough to change the spread in Vegas? You can't possibly be this stupid...

This wouldn't fit with the "we're poor, our population is too low, no alumni base" agenda you have as well.

So make up your retarded arse mind.

The spread is based on the bets. So, yes, you're an idiot.

God y'all are fricking retarded. If every person in Mississippi bet on our game there would not be enough to outweigh everyone else in the country betting on it.

The spread moves because the betting becomes lopsided. The majority of people in the entire country would have to bet on State, not a "few people from Starkville" like he stated.

Exactly how many people do you think are betting on this game?

I really have no idea, but I can't imagine that enough people from Mississippi bet on the game to change the line.

1. Was pointing out that you don't seem to get that "Vegas" has nothing to do with the line. No 'experts,' analysts, or anything of the sort is involved. It starts as an estimation of where the betting will fall in line, and it moves only with the money put down. Lines have started at -10 for a team, and moved to +10 within days. That's the point -- "Vegas" never loses. They just sit back and collect money.
2. I never said "a few people from Starkville." I said "delusional grinders." There is a huge difference -- don't misquote me.

1) I doubt many people who aren't direct fans are making straight bets on this game. It's a complete toss up and likely one team will run away with it. Most of the bets including this game will likely be parlay bets. So it's not likely that the spread has any real semblance of where Vegas stands on the game.

I doubt a specific fambase will bet just to change a line, but a small minority can change a line that is proven especially in college football.

Never trust a Vegas spread that is less than 3.5 to be an accurate predictor -- it means the game is too close to call so they couldn't even predict a win by a FG, that the team with home field gets a point or two, and that a small minority could have made straight bets and actually moved the line a point or two.
