... and MSU as two-point underdogs.

Goodness.

Interesting how Vegas shuffles points and odds to balance out money that is bet.

The bettors determine that. Vegas bookies just set the line based on how the bets come in.

Surprised so many are betting against the Spartans. They are due and I think the Gophers have a real chance, but still surprising.

You said it better than I, FOT. That is what I meant by balancing out the money that is bet.

I'll be calling the bookie tomorrow if that is still the case...hopefully the Gophs can prove me wrong.

bs. I wouldn't bet on the Nolenless gophers right now.

Mind-boggling. I expected the Spartans to be a 3-5 point favorite.

I think you mean "mind bottling." Don't worry, honest mistake.
