    How many Sportsbooks Sweating Auburn to win Championship @ 1000/1?

    LVH has 14 pending tickets on Auburn to win @ 1000/1.

    They have not announced the amounts.

    Wonder what other books are holding.

    may sound dumb...but after going winless in the SEC last year and a new head coach...you would think the odds would be bigger then 1000-1.(that not that isn't big)

    I'm pretty sure the thousands of bets on Alamaba,Ohio state, etc will more than balance out.

    stupid move by the books here. never had to set that at 1000-1 to bring in bets

    auburn has had top recruiting classes and just won a championship. yet they gave the odds they should have given to UNC and Oregon state. dumb

    Books are not dumb, it's a greed bet. They know those guys who throw some coin on it won't likely be the guys who will hedge 6.6k to win 2k.

    doesnt seem like much considering they probably piled on the bammer, oregon, ohio state, etc bets

    14 seems like nothing....probably mostly $100 plays by alumni

    well i guess that is 1.4 million lol

    true.

    i take back my state ment about 1000-1 not being right odds for Auburn. I was on the lines of thinking 100-1. had a long day.

    I'm sitting here thinking of some teams that could be major underdogs, but still make a run next year....

    If the odds are good enough I might put a small futures bet on the Florida Gators or Houston Texans.

    Can anyone else name some contenders next year that had a bad year this year?

    Maybe USC?

    Texas if you think there's a real chance Saban makes the move

    Have to admit though, you make a thread asking for people's opinions on biggest surprise team playing for the championship the first week of August not a single one of us would have Auburn even on the radar.

    yeah youd have to go with someone who will have a first year coach or something like that

    is sumlin going somewhere else? hell even if i he stays and johnny is gone that could be an option

    I took fsu 20/1 to start the season.

    1000/1 is nuts for a school like Auburn. They were terrible last season but the team wasn't devoid of talent.

    Books don't sweat futures. If there are 14 1000 to 1 futures on Auburn the book manager will hedge them by betting FSU at other books to limit exposure.
