Well, the streak had to come to an end, eventually. After a run of profitable Saturday’s for the sharp money, a 1-4 Week 12 provided a major hit to egos (and wallets).
The sharp money is still 40-29 on the season overall this college football season. Let’s set the table for Week 13.
“Ohio State-Indiana is by far the most bet game on Saturday,” BetMGM trading manager Seamus Magee said in an email. “There are four times the number of bets on Indiana (+325) to win than any other team. Ohio State winning but Indiana covering is the best outcome for the sportsbook.”
There another five betting lines at BetMGM where the side with larger amount of bet slips is actually trailing the amount of money wagered on the other side on Saturday.
Please tail (or fade) responsibly!
