This is hilarious.
Person who doesn’t know Clay Travis: “So what exactly is it that you do?”
Clay Travis: “I’m wrong.”
PWDKCT: “Excuse me?”
CT: “Yeah, they just put me on TV and I’m wrong.”
PWDKCT: “All the time?”
CT: “Yeah — literally every single time.” https://t.co/tcxG6pOE0W

Technically, Auburn covered the 22.5 points, barely (although most places had it at 21.5), but you get the point.
By the way, second in the amusement department is Erik Evans, who I presume is now missing both his testicles after his Michigan-Ohio State bet.

I have a friend who went to law school with Travis at Vanderbilt Law. As bad as Travis is at gambling, he’s apparently worse at being a lawyer.

Not only did Clay lose the bet, he also pissed off his wife, a Michigan grad.

“70-69 on the season and if we can finish the next two weeks in style, we can push ourselves well above .500 on the year.”
“Well above” –as we like to say around these parts–is doing a lot of heaving lifting there. If I was just a betting dude, I would just put my money on a coin flip and spare myself the Clay Travis facetime.

I’m not a gambler, especially on college football, and I’m not a math major either but it seems to me a gambler placing bets with a bookie has to win 56% of his bets to break even due to the 10% juice the house gets. The numbers say a gambler who bet $100 per game on 100 games and won 60% of his bets would have a profit of $400 at the end of the season. The way the lines are set, I think it would be very hard to win 60% of the bets.
I know some people love the action but the stress of risking $10,000 wouldn’t be worth the return for me.

Piss on Clay Travis’ chest and have it trickle down on Erik’s face as he blows him.
Speaking of predicting wrong some of the boys here were adamant that the Dawgs would lose one or two in the regular season for various reasons. You know who you are.
Some of us never faltered in our belief that Kirby had the progressive reloader fully stocked with powder, primers, lead and brass. Here’s hoping fate favors us three more games.
Go Dawgs!

It’s damn hard to get much over 60% correct against the spread. IF you can, you need to be in Vegas full time during football season.

I do a bit of betting, and generally come out ahead. The key is that sometimes the books think a team is something they are not and continue to place odds based on that. I made a lot of money of Baylor basketball in their championship season and Clemson last year when the bookies thought they would blow out people.
If you can recognize trends and place smart (not have to continually bet for that adrenaline rush) it’s possible to eek out some cash. However, I do it at such a low $$ that it’s just a mental game. I’m up -$3k over the past two years.

It seems the bookies have caught on to UGA and its inability or unwillingness to cover massive spreads. LSU at only -17 with a gimpy QB would have been -22 or so in early November.

Until CFB gets fully into bed with the NFL and starts requiring players to be listed as probable, doubtful, out, etc. (and penalizing coaches for not accurately releasing that information), betting on CFB is a tough way to make a living.

Bold prediction. Now put points spreads on the games and put some serious money down to show your confidence.
Picking winners and losers is the easy part of prognosticating. I’d imagine most people could hit close to 80% if they were simply picking the winner. Those point spreads are where things get tricky.
