Sportsbook sees lopsided numbers on LSU-Arkansas game, including 6-figure bet
No. 7 LSU is only a 3.5-point favorite against an Arkansas team 1-game above .500. Unsurprisingly, bettors like the Tigers.
BetMGM Nevada’s Scott Shelton told Patrick Everson of Vegas Insider that the money is 50-1 in favor of LSU. That number includes a 6-figure bet on Brian Kelly’s squad.
1/ Per @BetMGM Nevada’s Scott Shelton (@scottatmirage) on LSU-ARK: LSU -3.5 to -3, then up to -4. Now -3.5 (-115).
“This one is all LSU, tickets and money. 6/1 tickets, money like 50/1. We got a huge bet here. We’ll need Arkansas big.”
Significant 6-figure LSU -3 (-115) bet.

Nationally, LSU is still a popular bet for MGM, but the numbers differ from the Nevada book.
2/ For @BetMGM nationally, per @drew_o_dell, spread betting not so lopsided. 67% of tickets/62% of money on LSU. On moneyline, tickets 2/1 and money 6/1 LSU.
