FSU Bookies Made Out Big in 2014: Can’t Rely on Noles Not Covering in 2015

For Tallahassee-based bookies in 2014, congrats!  You were among the biggest moneymakers with Florida State last year and we here at Gambling911.com hope you are enjoying this summer on your new catamaran.  

The FSU Seminoles, despite their undefeated regular season, only covered the spread in three games.  Those are amazingly lopsided numbers that heavily favor the bookies and agents.

2015 will be a different story.  No way do the oddsmakers let that happen.  And your customers will be looking for their money back.
