Two weeks ago we read about an odd scenario in college football between USC and Utah. USC was a 7.5 favorite for this game. On the final play of the game with USC leading 17-14 they blocked a Utah field goal attempt and returned it for a touchdown. A miscommunication between the scorer and officials initially waived off the touchdown due to an excessive celebration penalty leaving Utah with the cover. Pac-12 officials changed the score over two hours later to include the game ending touchdown making the final score 23-14 effectively changing the outcome of the betting side. This erupted in a barrage of calls from gamblers and casinos to the Nevada Gaming Control Board but still resulted in some casinos honoring one side while others honored the opposite side. What was the gaming board doing? If not consistent across the board then each sports book is making it's own rules and not being regulated. Sounds like another case of Vegas never loses. The fix in is!
