Floyd Mayweather puts 3 million on Michigan +14
Quote:
Grand Rapids-bred boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather, who has been known to throw down some big money on sporting events, reportedly has wagered $3 million on Michigan's season opener against Alabama on Saturday night.
Mayweather is thought to have taken the 14 points U-M is getting as the underdog.
The information comes from the Twitter account of online betting website sportsbook.ag. Mayweather has not confirmed it, though, in the past, he has tweeted pictures of his winning bet slips.

I think he'll win that bet. Alabama beat Penn State by 16 last season. Alabama isn't much better than last year (or better at all) but Michigan is much better than Penn State. I think Alabama will win but it will be by 5-8 points.

They could score 0 points and he can win the bet. Michigan needs to lose by less than 14 points. He gets his money back if it is by exactly 14 and loses if Michigan loses by 15+.

ohhh, I thought they need to score at least 14.
I'm not a betting man, I always wondered how this stuffed worked though.

Alabama is not a high scoring offense. It will be surprising if they score ~28, I think Michigan can score two touchdowns.

When I texted my dad about this bet, he responded: "Stupid. Denard Robinson couldn't hit his ass with both hands."
