    I have a 50/1 future on northwestern to win the big 10
    Put a Jackson on this back in August and can't believe they're actually gonna be playing in the big 10 title game.

    I don't expect them to beat Michigan the way the wolverines are playing now but they did give them a game earlier in the season. They can make it ugly and a grind out type game and maybe have a slight chance I guess.

    Not sure about Ohio St if OSU ends up beating Michigan. Think the buckeyes are a worse matchup for them.

    What do you guys think the money lines would be for Michigan and Ohio St in this game? Might be some sweet hedge action opportunity. Might just let it ride though tbh since it's only 20 bucks.

    Nice call!

    I say let it ride, but nothing more than a small hedge

          Put all your $1000.00 on Michigan(if had you bet $20.00). Michigan will probably be 14-17 points favorites. Yes, it was a close game but they led 17-0 and Michigan completely dominated afterward(turning point of michigan’s season). Not sure northwestern crossed Michigan’s side of the field after halftime.

            Throw the ticket in the trash as it is worthless. Then cap the game as you normally would.

              Do lose more money chasing it. NW probably won't even cover the spread, but hedging the Jackson could be even more expensive. Now if OSU is in the game you might win it all.

                Since I have no affinity for any particular Big 10 team, I am now going for Northwestern. Good luck Mack. I am close to being in the same boat as you. I have a 100-1 futures on Arizona State to win the Pac 12. Nothing clinched yet, but they contol their destiny. Tough one at Oregon then against their big rival, but "win and in" the title game. Since neither NW or ASU will be in the final four rankings, for both our sakes, I would love to see ASU and NW in the Rose Bowl.

                  If I came up to you and said Mackles I am going to give you 465.71 for a 20 dollar investment 4 months ago, you would take it right?

                    That's nice ticket to be holding. I'll root for the sun devil's for you. Love seeing these types of plays end up cashing.

                      I would have to say yes.

                      That's groceries for like two months.

                            I agree with the live bet hedge. Best thing / scenario is for the Wildcats to get the first score. 14/17 point favorite is what? 100 to get 10?

                              I don't quite follow this.

                              Aren't you setting him up for a huge middle?

                                A perfect example of why there are so many losers in here. Northwestern will probably lose to Minnesota on Saturday and go to the CC game at 7-5. Minny needs one more win to become bowl eligible and they finish the season at Wisconsin. A home game against a team with now nothing to play for seems to be much easier. I grabbed Minny +3 at Caesars. Having said ths and knowing that the best the 'Cats can finish at is 8-4, and will probably finish at 7-5 do you really think that an 8-4 or 7-5 team is going to defeat a 11-1 team, be it Michigan or Ohio State? Grab the guaranteed money and hedge. Do not listen to the idiots who say to go all the way. It is not their money thay are playing with. It is also the reason why 90% of these fools lose every year.
