Vegas bettor is extremely confident Auburn will beat Kent State
All kinds of bets are placed throughout the college football season with various levels of probability. This week, one Vegas bettor has choose to put down money on a rather lopsided money-line.
Auburn is such a huge favorite against Kent State this Saturday that the money-line is -20,000. That means one would have to bet $20,000 to win $100 if Auburn beats Kent State (straight up).
A Vegas bettor has taken that bet, placing $1,000 on Auburn. If he wins, he’ll get $5.

Along with the $5, the bettor will also get the usually free drinks that come with placing a bet worth at least a few hundred dollars. Still, even though there’s little doubt Auburn will beat Kent State, this doesn’t seem like a worthwhile bet.
For what it’s worth, the ESPN FPI gives Kent State just a 1.5 percent chance of beating Auburn this weekend.
