Tonite's game has been pushed back 24 hours after the early morning terror attack.

I wish they would move the time up since the Rose Bowl will not be proceeding it now. I am guessing that they can't because of TV contracts.

I heard the teams are in lockdown until they leave for the game tomorrow evening.

So there are 50,000 people going to the front desks of hotels asking to stay an extra day? And how many people trying to rebook a flight for the next day? Not to be compared to the loss of life and seriously injured…. but quite a mess.

All bets on the game are still live, by the way.

Depends on house rules. I read at South Point, game must be played on specified date, so they are refunding

Oh. I’m pretty sure the major on line sportsbooks keep the action live. One (Caesar’s maybe?) had a pop up saying if the game is played within 7 days AT THE SAME VENUE it counts.

I’ve been hot on these games, and have a bunch of parlays that finish with this game. The biggest one is Georgia +1. Second biggest is Notre Dame +3.5. You know what I’m rooting for! Also have one that needs the over to win.

Knicks game had BIG betting opportunity. BOTH Jalen Brunson and his main backup, Deuce McBride, were late scratches. Anyone who knew this could have bet over on points for the players most likely to get additional minutes. Townes, Bridges, Hart, Payne. Cha-Ching. I (coincidentally, no knowledge) had 4 legger with over on Brunson points, over on Hart rebounds, over Townes rebounds, and over Markonnen rebounds. It became 3 legger but all 3 hit BEFORE halftime!

Watched a little Nets. They traded their only real point guard. They look ‘rudderless’. I’ll be betting against them.

Are they? I thought some Las Vegas sports books had rules that the event had to be played on the posted date.

My Hard Rock online bet is still live.

All three teams with byes lost. Not only did they lose, but all were blown out in the first half and only jelled in the second half.

The Texas game turned into a classic, with ASU's incredible comeback and the most successful kicker in Texas history missing two game-ending FGs only to find redemption on his third attempt.

What game did you watch? Texas won by scoring two TD’s in OT. Seriously, where did you get that ‘info’ from?!?

His third attempt was a PAT in the first overtime. I breathed a sigh of relief for him when he made it.
The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but that is the way to bet.

Caesar's and William Hill both have the 7-day at the same venue rule, at least for football.
