Several of you out there have appeared ready to crown USC the best thing to come along sense the birth control pill, for a month now. I have on numerous occasions offered to make a wager with some of you, to no avail.

 

Now that it is official, do I have any takers on a wager on the Rose Bowl. I will consider any reasonable offer.

 

Any of you USC lovers, or UT haters willing to put your money, reputation or anything else where you mouth is, or are we going to just continue with impendent comments?

Oh I am sure that I can cover whatever you would like to put up. Couple of questions:

 

What source are we going to use for the line?

 

Are we going to make some provision for the payment, or are we going to assume that the loser as enough integrity to pay up?

I'll hold the money for both of you in a PayPal account....

 

As for the line, just make it straight up.

 

And on the side rbm, I'll make a sigline bet if you want. Loser has to use their new one until the next season starts in August. BTW, is Texas your team, or are you just anti-USC? Just curious for the sigline creativity...

I am going to be in Vegas before the game, so it makes no sense for me to make a monetary bet at anything but a legitimate line. I am a big UT supporter, but I am not stupid.

 

I would be happy for you to hold any money, I believe that you integrity is not questioned on this board, even if your collegiate affiliation is. :D

 

As for a sigline bet, I would be happy to make a sigline bet with you (straight-up, no line), as long as the proposed sigline does not contain any discriminatory remarks based on a persons race, religion, handicap, sexual orientation or political philosophy. Let me know if this is acceptable to you.

 

A procedural question on the sigline bet, if we agree to a bet, does that preclude us making another sigline bet with another huddler? Is there a size limits to siglines?

 

I graduated from UT in 1979, I have a brother, sister & nephew that graduated from UT, and my father graduated from UT. The first game I remember watching was the 69 shoot-out (I was 8 at the time), and there has been a great deal of frustration since. What is your affiliation with USC?

I'll take USC and give you the 6.5 spread that was listed today, for $50.

Done

 

(I was hoping you would show up!)

 

Just let me know how you want to handle the money.

 

What line have you seen on the Fiesta Bowl? I will take OSU in that one if you want! :D (I could never bet on ND, even if I did not think that they were a pretender this year)

OK with the first part. Don't know about the size limit of siglines. And I'm a Black/Asian/Latino, crippled, gay, Catholic USC grad that likes Bush... :D

So should we have Coffeeman hold the funds?

 

 

Coffee is that okay with you, when you set up your paypal account i will forward my $50 spot and just notify both of us when you've gotten both parties money.

:D Hysterical ........ You must be related to the "Pope Boy". If you're sooo confident in your Longhorns why do you need points? I'm more than interested in your $50.00 bet without the spread. I'm not interested in the possibility of USC getting a 20 point lead and coasting to a victory only to have UT get a couple "cheap" touchdowns late to make it a close game. If the bet is straight up ..... you have yourself a bet. At least your willing to bet .... unlike "Pope Boy" who thinks ND is an elite team but when pressed he runs like a Catholic teenager at Mass! :D

Hey Popester ..... now that we both have a legitimate 3rd party to hold the money let's make that BET that you couldn't make because you couldn't trust me to pay if I lost. $100.00 to coffemans paypal account ...... Hmmmm :D

FWIW, the early returns from my on-line site shows that more money is being put behind USC -6.5, so expect the line to move up. Secondly, as much as I despise UT and its fans, calling anyone out because they want the points is childish.

 

If you want USC straight up, then find the money line and give him odds. From what I can gather, its about 2.25:1.

 

Trying to heckle someone into forfeiting the point spread in the name of pride is lame.

yeah i figured that spread would move more, once it hits 7.5 i'll make my UT bet. All of the USC fans are too stubborn to think that Texas will even be in the game and much less have a chance, so they will eat up the line until it hits 10, Eat away horsies!

Thanks for the support, but like I said I am a big UT fan, not an idiot. So all money bets will be at a legitimate line at the time.

 

Sigline and Avatar bets or other creative bets will be straight up, no line.

That is the thing that people are always getting wrong. The line that is set in Vegas, has nothing to do with what "Vegas" thinks the score will be. The only purpose of the line is get an equal amount of money bet on both sides, then the book takes the "juice". If a line moves, it is because more money is being bet on one side.

Coffeeman holding is fine with me. I just opened a PayPal account, so that will work and I can get my $ in for the Bowl Bonanza.

Doesn't someone in Vegas set the original line before it is modified to limit the risk? They want that original line to be as close as possible to the point where the betting public will be split evenly to decrease risk.

 

I'm not a big gambler, so I'm not about second guess people who make their living doing it.
