Betting lines have nothing to do with what Vegas or “line-maker” believes will happen. Lines are set based on an attempt to have 50% wagered on each team. With 10% “juice” applied, VEGAS profits 10% regardless of score or winner. The line moves directionally to try and elicit the 50/50 on each team. Stop with the “Vegas hates BYU”. If BYU fans would pony up more $ the “line” would adjust to look like BYU was favored more. It’s simple $ math. For predicted winner info, ESPN is a better source… BYU currently listed about 68% likely to win the game.
Voila— Vegas does not hate BYU, they adore $$$
