Vegas releases gigantic spread for Georgia-Murray State game

Though FBS vs. FCS games are usually hard to bet on, the folks at Odds Shark are projecting Georgia to be a heavy favorite Saturday against Murray State.

The sports books currently list the Bulldogs as a 49-point favorite over the Racers, which is one of the largest spreads the Dawgs have had in quite some time.

Meanwhile, ESPN has the contest a little bit lower at -48.5 in favor of the good guys.

Georgia’s largest victory last season came against Austin Peay, by a score of 45-0. The Bulldogs hung 66 points on UMass, but gave up 27, in what was a high-scoring game for the over/under.

Time will tell if Georgia can cover the massive spread on Saturday, though it isn’t even the largest in the SEC.

Alabama is currently a 54-point favorite against New Mexico State, which would normally seem like a good game to bet against the Tide on, given the Aggies are in the FBS.

However, No. 23 Washington State boat-raced New Mexico State 58-7 last week. This has us wondering, which team would you feel more confident in taking for a cover on Saturday?
