Vegas made a lot of money on people who suckered into betting on Colorado vs Oregon.
Before Saturday’s much-hyped Colorado-Oregon game, Colorado was a -21 point underdog.
Apparently Colorado was an extremely popular bet among fans.
77 percent of the bets put on the Colorado-Oregon were for Colorado at -21.
When the game kicked off, 77 percent of bets at @BetMGM were on Colorado +21.

The Colorado +650 money line bet was the biggest liability for sportsbooks this week.
UPDATE per @TS_Sportsbook’s @ZachALucas:
“Colorado moneyline is now the biggest liability we’ve seen in the past three seasons of college football.” https://t.co/05Wa6Fz6n3

99% of bets are on @CUBuffsFootball +650 to upset Oregon.
There are more bets on Colorado's moneyline than on any other college game (spread, total, ML) this weekend at @BetMGM. pic.twitter.com/ybi14skab3

Unfortunately for those who gambled on Colorado, they got crushed by Oregon 42-6.
