And haven’t partaken in sports betting in a long time.
But I was blown away by the line when I checked after seeing post.
I would have guessed BYU would have been favored by 4-5 points. If I saw two points and wanted to bet I would have bet the house on BYU. Freshmen/Soph going against Seniors? Especially when BYU killed Utah last yr? It’s a no brainer - that is a recipe for a double digit win.
BYU was going to cover. That was just plain old terrible defense and also you are relying on a true fresh to take and hit a game tying 3.
So yeah, I guess gamblers influencing this game is possible - as in technically anything is possible. But more possible in the same realm that Flying unicorns are theoretically possible.
