BODOG SPORTS WEEKEND IN REVIEW
Thanksgiving was
a split. The biggest decision went the book's way when Detroit upset Green
Bay but bettors got the best of the other two games with Miami rolling over
Dallas and Mississippi blanking Mississippi State.
On Friday,
bettors were in heavy on a couple of big favorites that were easy winners (LSU
-10 over Arkansas and Texas -21 over Texas A&M) gave bettors a couple of nice
wins. The book had a big win when Nebraska (-2.5) won in Colorado. The rest
of the games were pretty evenly balanced.
Saturday got off
to a rough start when books got middled on Tennessee/Kentucky. The line
opened at Tennessee -10 and went as high as -13.5 so the 20-7 Tennessee win
wasn't a lot of fun. Bettors also did well with Georgia -10 over Georgia
Tech, Missouri -27.5 over Iowa State and Boise St -23 over Reno. The book did
well with Virginia -2 over Virginia Tech and Florida State -1 over Florida.
The day ended well for the House with Miami -3 over Pittsburgh.
Sunday looked
like it would be bad for books until a late back door cover and the Sunday
Night game. The early games had all home favorites and so action was fairly
balanced but bettors came out ahead with St Louis, New England and Baltimore.
The lone bright spot for books was the Bills over the Giants. The late
afternoon games featured 3 road favorites and as normal they got more of the
action. The Saints/Redskins game was bet very lightly compared to the rest of
the late games but went the player's way as did Denver over Oakland. Kansas
City was the third, and most heavily bet, home favorite and it took a
meaningless touchdown with no time on the clock for the Chargers to cover.
The Sunday night game had bettors in very heavy on Tampa Bay and so the 17-10
Jags win was a good score for books.
For Monday Night,
bettors are in heavy on the Titans despite McNair's status and their is a
slight lean to the over.
