Vols open as 10 point favorite

[Biopsyman]

Mushcamp put 10 large on the vols

What's the over/under?

Anything over 27 or so is a gift.

I haven't seen one in Vegas open yet.

Florda's o line is really bad too and is starting a backup QB on the road for the first time. Their defense is a really good though. Dobbs has to win this one with his legs. Let's hope they have been saving up some trick plays like last year.

Vegas is thinking if Tennessee wins they will rake in the money!

Vegas does not gamble like that. They want the betting close as possible down the middle.

To execute your move would be them actually gambling. A big win or big loss.

This is going to be a 21-17 kinda game.

Sometimes the games where all the money comes in on one side go the other way and Vegas makes bank. Hoping this is one of those.

Yes, they are called sucker lines for a reason.

You have to remember Vegas sets a line to get 50/50 action. They release those early lines to major bettors then adjust. It's doubtful the average bettor in Oregon knows Cam Surton will not play and what that could potentially mean. They just see UT-10 and likely know we haven't faired well against them in too many years.

Thank you. Finally someone knows how Vegas works. Seriously people talking about how Vegas is hoping for team x or y to win is dumb. They want even money on both sides. That way it's all profit.

What's the over/under?

Anything over 27 or so is a gift.

It's possible that neither team scores an offensive TD

I can have fu AND I can have points!?!?!?!? Fighting the temptation to cash out my 401k and head to Vegas.

If Butch Jones loses to Florida again with all the talent he has, then he may very well be on his way out! This is year 4! Other coaches have turned programs around in 2 years. Coach Jones is a nice person, but he is in way over his head at Tennessee!!

Jones isn't going anywhere win or lose.

Bet the house

 

[DD4ME]

We have more talent and they lost their starting QB. I would not bet this game but I can see why.

 

[Vol737]

We have more talent and they lost their starting QB. I would not bet this game but I can see why.

And three of our best defensive players are out, Maybin slated to play but I'll believe it when I see it and how effective will he be if that shoulder is still smokin? At 8.5, I'm taking gators to cover all day everyday and twice on Sunday's.

 

[UT = Checkmate]

Tennessee by 21+. This will be a Virginia tech type of win
