There was a time, a little more than five years ago when being the guy betting on the over in the Hawaii game made you a degenerate. Since the Supreme Court overturned PASPA everything has changed. ESPN has spreads and lines in the bottom score bug, gambling-based TV shows are on every network, and you can't watch anything without an ad for a sportsbook. Like it or not, legal sports betting is here and isn't going anywhere. Sorry, Ballcoach.
Now thankfully I've been betting on sports for like 12 years now. I've always done it responsibility and I figure that I might as well use my knowledge of sports to make some money. There's no better time of year than the start of September when CFB and NFL are fully kicking off. With sports betting legal in VA, NJ, and a handful of other states, I figured we could talk a little gamblin' here.
Yesterday LU was -22.5 on a couple of books and the moment I saw that I unloaded and told everyone I know. The line has since moved to 23.5 (this means a lot of people are betting on Liberty and books need to try and get money on the other side). I wouldn't be shocked if this ends up closer to 28 by kickoff on Saturday. I can't imagine a situation where Liberty doesn't score 45 points and I can't imagine a situation where Campbell scores more than 21 points. If both of those occur you're still safe with 23.5.
So gamblin'. I might be the only one here but over the years it's made major Liberty wins even more thrilling. The Mississippi State win was even sweeter when I cashed a $300 ticket when the buzzer sounded (I spent the whole thing on beverages for everyone within a stone's throw of me at the sportsbook. Not my best moment).
Share your picks, ask some questions, pray for my sinful soul. Either way, let's find some winners.
(I have the under 52 n this Jaxonville State UAB game right now. 10-0 at half so I'm feeling pretty good. Stand by)
