I'd take Bama and hedge my bet with LSU.Alabama -- 7/5
Auburn -- 5/1
South Carolina -- 5/1
Georgia -- 6/1
LSU -- 13/2
Florida -- 12/1
Ole Miss -- 14/1
Texas A&M -- 25/1
Missouri -- 40/1
Mississippi State -- 40/1
Tennessee -- 50/1
Arkansas -- 100/1
Kentucky -- 200/1
Vanderbilt -- 200/1
I think they have a definite possibility of being very good, but I can't see them taking it all.I'll take Bama and hedge with 'Tate.
It's kind of like taking a spin on a roulette wheel with 12 slots -- five slots say "Bama wins the SEC," seven slots say "Bama does not win the SEC."Dumb question. Does that mean that if the season was played 7 times they think we would win 5 times?
Or you could just give me a hundred and call it even....betting a hundred on Vandy.
It means that Bama is such a big favorite that if you bet on them you have to bet seven dollars to win five. So if you bet $700.00 on Bama and they do in fact win the conference you will win $500.00. If they don't win it you lose $700.00.Dumb question. Does that mean that if the season was played 7 times they think we would win 5 times?
So in this case you bet $7 on Bama to make $5 and bet $1 on AU to make $5?It means that Bama is such a big favorite that if you bet on them you have to bet seven dollars to win five. So if you bet $700.00 on Bama and they do in fact win the conference you will win $500.00. If they don't win it you lose $700.00.
Conversely the same $700.00 bet on Auburn at 5-1 would pay $3,500.00 if they should win it all.
You know, just for fun I'd like to be renowned sports analyst and invert the left side of this on my website claiming that I had greater insight than all others.Alabama -- 7/5
Auburn -- 5/1
South Carolina -- 5/1
Georgia -- 6/1
LSU -- 13/2
Florida -- 12/1
Ole Miss -- 14/1

yes--no wait..it's the other way around!! Oops.So in this case you bet $7 on Bama to make $5 and bet $1 on AU to make $5?
I do believe you're right. Oops!Wouldn't that be $5 to win $7?
