UVA, as only a +6.5 betting underdog against FSU, seemed like free money. However, like most instances in gambling, if it’s too good to be true, it usually is. Over 90 percent of the bets were on FSU covering the spread, and it never moved over the last 4-5 days, and that’s always a red flag.
The way the game started with the suspect pass interference call on Duce Robinson should have been a sign. Then the Gavin Sawchuk fumble, and the weird interception off the tipped pass from Thomas Castellanos. All the signs started pointing to Vegas being Vegas.
