Sure, you could have made some nice coin betting Big Ten football last week _ especially if you gave my advice the Heisman stiff-arm.
Michigan and Ohio State covered their huge lines by halftime, and the Illinois money line paid handsomely.
The real opportunity, though, was in the election. On Tuesday morning, a $100 bet on Donald Trump would have netted you an extra $350. Trump's over-under for electoral votes was a mere 228. Hey, maybe the new president will legalize sports betting, tax it and keep those dollars from floating overseas.
Anyhoo, back to sports and this week's Big Ten slate.
