Beginning to think this 15.5 point spread is ridiculous

JaWarrenJaHooker

Bettors just don't have respect for our little team from the Northwest! I firmly believe Our Vandals can WIN this game, damnit!

Most people I ran across in Vegas thought that we had a very strong shot ...

ESPN's FPI has us at 31.8% to win, which is roughly bama -6. sagarin had us at +7.5
there is definitely some bias with that 15.5 spread. most of those bettors probably watched UW once or twice this whole year

I'll withhold comment until @HeretoBeatmyChest tells me what SRS predicts.

Seriously, how often do you go to Vegas?

I try to get down there about 2-3x per year ... this year has been on the high side for sure with a couple of extra trips compared to normal.

I definitely don't do the typical go down and get hammered for 48 hours marathon in Vegas anymore. This year my trips were:

1) In/Out over 12 hours prior to the NCAA Tournament to get some bets in/out

2) Drove through on my golf trip for a couple of nights to play golf at Wolf Creek and Cascata

3) Went down in October to join up with a golf trip in Mesquite at the last minute

4) Right before bowl season + head to annual hoops double header (which was awesome this year)
