Now, we, as clever bettors would place our bets on Oregon, because we would know that only a great fool would not see that they want us to take Washington. We are not great fools, so we can clearly see that we should not choose Washington. But, they must know that we are not great fools, they are counting on it, so we can clearly not choose Oregon.
The lines come out of Vegas, as everyone knows. And Vegas is a creation of criminals. Criminals are not inclined to parting with their money so easily as this, so we can clearly not choose Washington. Now of course, the line makers would know that we are aware of their origin, so we can clearly not take Oregon.
Washington has beaten Oregon, which means they are exceptionally strong, and trusting their strength to prevail, we clearly can not take Oregon. But, Oregon also must surely have studied this loss and discovered that the Huskies have weaknesses and found ways to exploit them, so we clearly we can not take Washington.
They’ve given us everything we need to know.
