None since they will lose.

A mistake.

I think they’re favored to beat the over so probably not much

Wait what

Sep 17, 11:22am

Utes are favored by 2

That and "favored to beat the over" are not the same thing

Sep 17, 11:28am

Google “covering”

I think you’re saying Utah is favored and should cover. Betting the “over” refers to the total points scored in the game

Sep 17, 11:35am

No, I’m saying what I mean to say.

Ok, I’m trying really hard here. Are you referring to the fact that the odds are better to bet the over?

ummm... you still haven't figured out you're the one who doesn't understand betting terminology?

I understand betting terminology just fine

It doesn’t seem that way. Saying someone is favored to beat the over

He still doesn't get it. It's amazing.

Spread is -2 and -115 odds. -115 means you'd risk $115 to win $100

If they win, you would get 77% of your bet in profit (-130 odds; 100/130 profit)

Sep 17, 11:26am

Moneyline is anywhere from -118 to -130. So if you bet 118 or 130 you win 100

Excited to watch this game to gauge both opponents.

Agreed - I'm blocking out time to watch the game. Should be interesting.
