Biggest Spread Number in college basketball ever??
- Thread starter SpursDynasty
- Start date
It is 40 or more
I remember Duke being favored over Alaska/Achorage by at least 40 couple years ago.

I had Moredick St. at +43.5 against UCONN.
UCONN covered that by at least 20 if I recall.
That was this season.

2002 NCAA women's basketball tourney opening round, I played St. Francis +68.5 against UConn at Gameday. UConn won 90-something to 30-something and I covered.
Wow, how do you NOT take 68. I mean gimme a break. Love the fact they put the half point in there :mj07:
Not -68, -68.5 :mj07:

I had SMU when they were on the death pen. in football way back, line was over +70 against Houston back when they were throwing the ball every play. So being the savy bettor I was at the time I played them on a 3 team tease getiing over 80.......SMU drove the field got a field to go up 3-0 feeling good...........Houston :mj07: proceeded to toss 90+ on them the rest of the way :mj07:

I played St Francis + as well. Thought almost 70 points was rediculous. At least we covered by a few baskets!!! :shrug:
Lousiana Tech (I think) was about a 77 point dog to some Pac 10 school (seems like it was Washington State when they had Leaf??) back in the mid 90s if memory serves me correct. Anybody else remember that one?

found what I was looking for. It was Louisiana Lafayette vs Washington State on 11-08-1997. Wash State won 77-7, but I'm quite sure they were favored by something in the 70s. I'll try to find the betting line.
EDIT, I was wrong. I was remembering the final score, not the spread. It was -46 for this game.
in that same year, I found Akron as a 56 point dog to Nebraska.

They used to hang some pretty ridiculous numbers on Spurrier's Gators back in the day. I don't have any specifics, though.
My guess in basketball would have to be on Duke at some point. It would have certainly been UNLV back in Tark's day if they hung numbers on them.
