Despite the fact that I recently posted about the inevitability of the end of Cal football, I have been since 2002 (when I began my freshman year in Berkeley) and remain a true blue Cal fan. As such, I have never bet against the Bears. But a line like this seems like such tantalizingly easy money, it's hard for me to not hop in my Kia, drive as fast as possible (which is to say, not very -- I drive a freaking KIA) to the Nevada state line and bet every penny I have on the Buckeyes.
Seriously, can you envision any scenario in which Cal loses by less than three touchdowns that doesn't involve the earth beneath the Horseshoe suddenly opening up and this happening:
Hell, even if Liam Neeson did summon a mythological behemoth to devour half the Ohio State players and coaches (and the refs conferred and decided, "Yeah, we really should let this one play out"), I would still find it hard to believe the Bears managed to trim the gap to 15 points.
My point is: This is probably the best financial opportunity our generation has seen since the Google IPO.
So, flip your Cal hats backwards, pull a sweater over your "Who's Domicile?" shirt and get to Vegas/Atlantic City/legalized gambling locale before 9AM PST on Saturday.
You can thank me later.
(I'd like to sign off with a rousing "Go Bears," but if we're wise there will be a lot of money at stake here.... So, um, go ... Kraken?)
