currently at a -1.5 to pk to +1 Auburn depending on which house you look at.

A couple of offshore houses have auburn catching a point to a pick, while the Mirage shows Auburn at -1

The data is not meant to spoon feed the public. It's for private consumption for those that make a living using it.

Read it right to left

Alabama -7 Florida = Alabama is favored and giving 7 points to Florida

Alabama 7 Florida = Alabama is the underdog and receives 7 points from Florida

Serious question, what is it that you do and who is we? Just curious.

Great info

1. That's your opinion. There are many gamblers who would respectively disagree with you.

2. Even if you were correct, using that word in that situation is completely unnecessary, and you should be ashamed of yourself for using hollow filler words to make yourself sound cool.

Mizzou a 1.5 point favorite now.


No, it is definitely a pickem. I checked again when I was downstairs an hour ago.

Gonna put something down on AU later tonight at the sportsbook (I'm in vegas now).

Take the monorail to the LVH if you're putting in a late bet you could probably pick up a point the way things are going.

Too lazy. And hungover from last night to fool with it.

And tonight will be a long one, so I'm just gonna stop by the book at PH and take what I get on the way out later tonight.

Will probably just watch it at the Planet Hollywood sports book (which is where I am staying).

Ironically, I am here with a gump buddy this weekend.

If you're looking to do something other than the sports book, check out Legasse's Stadium at the Palazzo. It's an awesome place and a good time.

You'll probably need a reservation, but it's a cool setup.

I'll ask my gump buddy if he knows it. He is here in vegas constantly and knows about everyplace that is any good.

Can you get loud and rowdy there? I tend to raise hell and make a lot of noise watching big AU games (even if I try to stay peaceful, never works). Might not be the best place for me.

If you're not loud and rowdy you'll be out of place. Everyone's got money on the games, so they're into it even if they're not fans.

I just dislike PH's book because they usually just set up chairs and don't really have a huge screen, just a bunch of smaller/big screens. LVH sports book is awesome to watch games as well.

I'll likely be with some buddies at in VIP Sports Book section at Red Rock out here in Summerlin if you want to meet up with some random idiots, but it's a hell of a taxi fare/drive.

Nah, can't this year. Starting a new job shortly and can't be taking days off so soon. I mean I could if I wanted, but not the way to start a new position, taking time off the first few weeks.

Vegas trip was sorta spur of the moment because I have some free time before starting in the new position.

I am not a loud rowdy person by nature, but watching big AU games I tend to flip out and yell a lot regardless of where I am, so sounds like a good spot for me.

Agree. Not much too it. I mean the lounge and bar are relatively nice, but it is about 50, 50" TVs on the wall but no big ones for the main games.

Gonna be way too hungover to do anything that requires that much effort I have a feeling.
