Would you bet the over/under or spread vs WV?

Love the paper ticket! Apps have taken some of the charm out of sports betting for me. And great tease up to 11.5! I wanted to put a bunch on the boys as well, but I already had them covering as part of 3 parlays -- one of which hit for me yesterday with Houston +1.5, TT +10, and MN -5. Wish I would've taken the first two legs on the ML!

Nice hit on the parlay!

In MT, online sports betting is still "illegal" on apps such as Draft Kings, MGM, Fan Duel, etc. ......but they let us bet on MT Sports Bet. Machines are in random bars throughout the state and you have to physically go in to the establishment to purchase the ticket. In all honesty......probably saves me a lot of money since I can't do it from the couch

I just plain waited too damn long, but at least it's set up now. Not sure about other places but in NV, to use most of the casino apps, you have to physically go to the casino one time at some point to activate your account. So I finally did this yesterday, wanting to get setup for the Gophers bowl game and beyond (hey, the locals HATE going to the Strip casinos at all costs).

I get to the window, connect my app, and find out you can only load/deposit your account, without paying a surcharge of 3%, with cash. Uncharacteristically I didn't have at least a decent amount of cash with me so I put what I had down and fired up the app, bet it on the Gophers at (-5).

Several hours later, I figure I'll load the card just once with a decent "bank" amount to work with and pay the one time 3% hit. By that time, the damn line was at Gophers (-6). I hate, hate losing value on a bet so ultimately I ended up betting about 1/3 of what I had intended to do for my larger bet.

Without fail, that difference of (-5) to (-6) could have very well swung the needle, the way the Gophers lead of 12 points for much of the game fell and a potential WVU TD and whatever they may have elected to do with the XP. Made for an anxious second half to say the least!

All's well that ends well I guess, cash both tickets!!

The second half being up 12 was stressful.....the Gopher fan in me expected WV to score the last play of the game and we win by 5.
