Syracuse FSU Betting Line -38 Despite QB Jameis Winston Sexual Assault Allegations
The Syracuse FSU betting line was hanging in there at Seminoles -38 but we could see this number come down with news that the Noles quarterback Jameis Winston is being investigated for an alleged sexual assault that reportedly occurred last year. We witnessed how negative publicity surrounding the Miami Dolphins affected their game Monday night (albeit they were also missing two of their key players).
From TMZ.com:
Law enforcement and other sources tell TMZ ... a woman filed a sexual assault complaint with the Tallahassee PD on December 7, 2012. She claims the alleged sexual assault was committed with the use of "physical force."
According to the police report, the motive for the alleged crime was "sexual gratification." The alleged victim says drinking was involved before the incident.
The police report says on the day in question, someone called the cops at 4:01 AM. When police arrived, we're told there were photos taken of the alleged victim's injuries as well as physical evidence collected.
According to the police report, the incident occurred in an apartment.
Winston is described in the police report as "muscular" and his demeanor as "polite."
The school advised TMZ.com that they were aware of the investigation by the Tallahassee Police Department but could not comment any further.
