FSU Bookies Made Out Big in 2014: Can’t Rely on Noles Not Covering in 2015

For Tallahassee-based bookies in 2014, congrats!  You were among the biggest moneymakers with Florida State last year and we here at Gambling911.com hope you are enjoying this summer on your new catamaran.  

The FSU Seminoles, despite their undefeated regular season, only covered the spread in three games.  Those are amazingly lopsided numbers that heavily favor the bookies and agents.

2015 will be a different story.  No way do the oddsmakers let that happen.  And your customers will be looking for their money back.

That’s where well-established Pay Per Head outfits like PayPerHead.com come into play.  They provide all the reporting, customer service, custom websites, line services and monitoring.

The folks who run the lines at PayPerHead.com happen to be among the sharpest in the industry.  Did you know that in Week 1, FSU missed covering the spread in some cases by a single point.  They only beat Georgia Tech by two points. 

This year, FSU won’t have the likes of QB Jameis Winston, among many others, and the Seminoles might not be favored in all games and, in games they are expected to win, you will likely see numbers that will go FSU’s way in order to maintain a more balanced record Against The Spread.  Last year’s 56-41 victory at North Carolina State, for example, would have been offered at -14.5 instead of the -16.5 number posted last year.  Your players though would be getting a -15.5 due to the skewed action on FSU. 

Mark our words, even though the offshore sportsbooks profited off of Florida State, these guys (and gals) are embarrassed by the lopsided nature of the Seminoles ATS record for a team that finished the season undefeated.  13-0 Straight Up, 3-10 Against The Spread?  Come on guys!!!  Get with the program!!! They WILL get it right this season.  While this may seem like a great thing for the books, consider how many bettors simply gave up and stopped wagering by season’s end.

Below is the schedule for 2015.  Our friends at BetOnline.ag were offering future odds of winning the BCS Championship at 100-1 and they will be releasing conference odds and season wins totals here shortly.

Offshore Pay Per Head companies abide by international gambling laws.  As such, those 18 years of age or older are welcome to do business with such establishments.  College students 18 years or older are also able to gamble. With some exceptions, most US land-based casinos require an individual to be at least 21 years old if they wish to gamble. 

Remember, always make studying a number one priority if you happen to be attending Florida State University.  Never conduct your bookie business on campus as this could result in a suspension.
