Today, the Golden Nugget Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada released their college football futures odds for the 2015 season. Among these odds, they released the current odds for seven games featuring Mississippi State. So what do the Golden Nugget futures stand for your Bulldogs? Here’s a screengrab of the odds for each of the seven games released thus far.

Golden Nugget futures for each Mississippi State football game in the 2015 season

So as you can see, the Bulldogs are not favored in any of the games featured. If we take into account the usual measures taken for home-field advantage (usually a 3-point swing in favor of the home team), here are the games odds on a “neutral” field. +6 vs LSU, +5 vs Auburn, +3.5 vs Texas A&M, +3 vs Missouri, +12 vs Alabama, +7 vs Arkansas, +5 vs Ole Miss. That’s right, even if the games were played on a neutral field, the Bulldogs would not be favored in any of these games. That’s some harsh words/numbers for the team returning one of the leading Heisman hopefuls for this year.

So what does this mean for your betting odds, if you’re into that sort of thing? Simply, there are a lot of opportunities for you to bet for your Bulldogs in games. Also, the Bulldogs embraced the Underdog role last season en route to holding the Number one ranking in Division I football for five weeks.

My advice to you when reading the odds? Embrace the underdog role and smile on the inside as you watch your Bulldogs come back and “shock” the world yet again when we knew they could do it all along. Laugh as you watch fans of other schools underestimate our team again and again.
