Exactly, meaning the spread would have been 20+ pts on a neutral site against the #3 team in the country. It’ll be 24 minimum next week
LSU was -5 vs us.
That means that Vegas thinks LSU is 2 points better than us on a neutral field.
Bama was -14.5 at LSU, which means that Vegas thought Bama was 17.5 points better than LSU on a neutral field.
17.5 better than LSU
+
2 since LSU is 2 points better than us
+
3 for home field
=
Bama -22.5
Bama -24.5 O/U 24.5
That's incorrect. Vegas doesn't try to place the line based on who they think is better. They base the line off who the betting public thinks is better, so they will have a 50/50 split on bets.
No way it's 17.5. Again they were 14.5 at #3 LSU.
