Advice on a Nevada Hedge?

THECLOSER · Nov 21, 2009

if you had some large ML parlays waiting on Nevada to win straight up, would you play new mexico st on the ml as a hedge or let it ride?

any chance nevada loses this game as a -31 favorite?

Isn't Nevada like -6500 on the ml?

nevada has boise next week and could still control its own destiny with a loss....but i don't see it happening.....nmsu has averaged 4 points per game its last 4

gotta wonder though, nmsu was +44 at Ohio st. a couple weeks ago, now they're +31 against a team they beat SU on the road last year and they're playing they're last home game......

i'm taking the points for a small bet.....got a late start on the beer drinking tonight

I personally hope New Mexico State keeps it close, so next week the Boise line is overpriced.

nmsu better score some damn points.....i'm banking on nevada slowing up in the 2nd half for next week's game

A few weeks ago I had Nevada and the under in the Nevada vs SJSU game (62 I believe), and Nevada just doesn't let up. I think New Mex will have to score atleast 4 touchdowns to cover which is very possible. Nevada ended up winning 62-7, but they did score two touchdowns in the 4th Qtr.

yeah, it was 62-7 nevada.....i wanted to hit the over, but looking at nmsu's scoring this year.....yikes

i read some interesting comments in the espn conversation thread that makes me think nmsu can cover

can't ignore the fact they won SU at nevada last year as 19 point DAWGS either

They had Chase Holbrook last year who wasn't all that bad. Obviously he is no longer with them, but good luck with your bet. My action is done for the day so ill be pulling for you.

I was wondering the same thing. Most books dont even offer money lines on those games.

Boxer22 · Nov 21, 2009

28-3 nevada in the first qtr.

OnWisconsin · Nov 21, 2009

should taken nevada on every bet possible.....spread....1st qtr.....half....team total....game total because they'll get it themselves

easily the worst bet i've made in a long time just to have some late action....i feel so cheated.....they've run something like a grand total of 10 plays and scored 4 TDs

sorry....didn't mean to turn this into an in game thread

This is embarrassing. How is New Mexico not able to stop this. Pathetic.

No one has been able to stop Nevada since week 3 of the season. Boise is going to have their hands full next week. After tonight Nevada will be the only team in history with three 1,000 yard rushers in the same year.

OnWisconsin · Nov 21, 2009

35-6 now.....come on NMSU, where's the pride?

KingofNicotine · Nov 21, 2009

I remember today thinking that Florida Gators wouldn't cover the -45. I gotta stay out any time there is a huge point spread like this.
Money out the window.
