AL1322 (8 months ago)

ClippersSux (8 months ago)
anyone know which final score was used to determine the pointspread winner on the utah/usc game?
AL1322 (8 months ago)
i think they graded both as winners..which is the fair thing to do...vegas books were paying out both from what i read..as the score was changed a few hrs after..have a feeling that was suspicious but whatever
LAURIN (8 months ago)
I would presume the online books paid on USC 23, and would just have reversed their initial payouts at the different score. Would be interesting to hear from someone who actually had a bet. Where the losses were the most was from the actual hotels who paid out on the Utah score. Some sucked it up and paid the USC tickets when the score was added, but there was a lot of guys going through the garbage after about 2 hours. The ones that didn't have it in their rules that they do not reverse after a score is final. (Note to all...read the fine print and hang on to your losing stubs). What a mess.

All Western Michigan vs Michigan games, as well as WVU games are being no actioned in accordance with industry standard.
frankzig (8 months ago)
but they are graded as a loss and a win
AL1322 (9 months ago)
people wouldnt be saying that if they were on the right side of the game lol
milwaukee mike (9 months ago)
how can you say under 55 was the "right side" when the game had a long way to go to get there?
milwaukee mike (9 months ago)
and i mean marshall/west virginia. lost on wvu and the over unfairly...
AL1322 (9 months ago)
didnt mean right side for the whole game..u may have won..meant right side since it was suspended..was just saying if u were against w.virg..im sure noone would comment on here "im sorry i cannot accept this win as the game wasnt finished"..yes its bad luck but it goes around both ways
milwaukee mike (9 months ago)
i can understand that. but every sportsbook in the world had those games graded as "no action" since they didn't go 55 minutes of playing time.
AL1322 (8 months ago)
there ya go..u got your wish lol
frankzig (9 months ago)
