Does anyone remember or has maybe looked up what Vegas had for odds on LSU winning NC at beginning of the season? I don't know if they even do this for college teams. I know they do for NFL teams though.

I was in Vegas this summer, and put down $10 with 30-1 odds at the Frontier (it was 25-1 next door at the Stardust). I just cared about LSU winning the game, of course, but the $300 was great lagniappe! And luckily my parents are in LV this week so I will have my cash hand delivered this week. Geaux Tigers!
