As Gambling911.com and other media outlets reported on Thursday, boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. is rumored to have placed a $3 million bet on his beloved Michigan Wolverines in their game against the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday.  Michigan only needs to cover the 14 point spread currently available at online books the likes of BetOnline.

Reno Gold, a Contributing Sports Handicapper to the Gambling911.com website, warns gamblers:  “Don’t buy into the hype”.

"Floyd Mayweather might be one of the best boxers of all time but I would not follow his college football betting advice," stated Sports-Odds.com College Football Picks Expert Reno Gold exclusively to Gambling911.com today after learning that Money Mayweather dropped a reported $3 Million on Michigan +14 points. "The only thing he has going for him at this point is that everyone already jumped on Alabama moving the line from -10 to -14 points. I gave out the Crimson Tide -10 points back when the opening number was posted and it clearly moved in my favor. Proof my picks move the line more than Floyd's! If he keeps making bets like this he will be forced to box until he is 50 years old to pay off the bookies in Vegas!"

Gold crushed the bookies with his College Football Picks ATS from Day One of the 2011 College Football Season, hitting on 99 of 143 for an unprecedented 69% average. Just this week he gave out Arkansas State +35.5 points against Oregon to Gambling911.com readers.

The Michigan vs. Alabama spread action is getting balanced action but it is the most wagered on College Football game of the week
