Bet between Yeofoot and MECU.

I'll give you 2:1 that whoever wins OSU vs. Texas is crowned the BCS champion. If you bet $50, I'd bet $100.

Yeofoot is in for $50
MECU is in for $100

Bet Completed

House gets 10% :lol: Kidding

I have bet on Ohio State on occassion, but I don't do it very often. I never bet on them to lose. If I don't think they can win, I don't bet. I put $1000 on Ohio State - Miami in 2002. Ohio State was getting 14 points and I just couldn't pass that up. I really didn't think Ohio State would win the game, but I was sure Miami wouldn't beat us by 14.

You two might think that it's gonna be the OSU/Texas game...But I think WVU and Louisville will have a lot to do with it...WVU is #3 preseason, right?
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

Your right, the winner of that game has a ticket to an undefeated season.

I believe he wants to bet with Yeofoot. Yeofoot has to confirm he accepts and the bet is on.

I have $2000.00 that says the NC winner will come out of a major(top6) conference. Any takers - I'll give 2:1 odds.

If Yeofoot accepts, can we do 3 way betting cause i'll go $50 on that?

They would be separate bets, but yes if Yeofoot excepts it is fine.

You have time to build a nest egg before the game.

Yes, but you probably need to PM yeofoot telling him to confirm. In case he misses this thread.

Presuming the odds are the same, the winner of the TX vs OU game wins the BCS title. I'm in.
