Notice Georgia Tech's odds are nearly twice as good as ours. Because we are MIS-SEEDED, Judge!

I don't think you understand how betting odds work.***

Mar 15, 2021, 2:55 PM

Georgia Tech is 14/1
Clemson is 25/1

You don't understand that means that GT is a much more likely team to advance?

Why don't you enlighten me? If you are referring to the mathematics of it, you are just plain wrong.

Since I am often Judge's burner account...

My favorite example - if random folks are asked to pick heads or tails for a coinflip- about 80% will actually pick "heads" (psychology says so). That does not mean that the coin-flip will be 80% heads. The ACTUAL probability remains the same regardless of the betting line.

What the odds mean is that more bettors THINK that GT is more likely to advance. There is ZERO impact on actual performance here.The relationship between those odd and say "metric" prediction or actuall advancement is "spuriious".

In statistics, a spurious relationship or spurious correlation[ is a mathematical relationship in which two or more events or variables are associated but not causally related, due to either coincidence or the presence of a certain third, unseen factor (referred to as a "common response variable", "confounding factor", or "lurking variable").

Vega betting odd have actually NO impact on the likelihood of a team advancing (unless you have players betting on the game and then adjusting the outcome). Betting is all about "mass" perception and where money is flowing from the bettors. In some cases it could be that bettors like the metrics more, or the color of the uniform more, there are more GT folks betting, or even random bets/picks.

In this case of it being "spurious" I am saying that both players and past performance metrics are both feeding the betting odds as well as factor into predictions to advance and win the region. So if you are using betting information to pick outcomes, well that is kinda spurious.

You are clearly much more intelligent than Judge, so I appreciate your logical response. And it's not wrong. But to me, there is too large a disparity between 14/1 and 25/1 mathematically to be solely attributed to projected betting trends considering our seeding comparison and the much easier 2nd round matchup we would face.

For the books to be equally exposed on GT and Clemson, there would have to be about 1.8x money bet on the Jackets at those odds. And I'm not saying there wouldn't be...people are more confident in GT advancing because they truly do have a better shot of accomplishing it. That fact goes back to my original point - we are over-seeded. Or, they are under-seeded, if stating it that way drives a less emotional reaction.

ACC Betting Line:

Florida State - 6.5/1
Virginia - 11/1
North Carolina - 12/1
Virginia Tech - 16/1
Georgia Tech - 14/1
Clemson - 25/1
Syracuse - 25/1

Can't believe with Clemson's resume that they are 25/1 odds. After beating so many teams that are in the NCAA Tournament you would think Las Vegas would have Clemson at better odds.
Maybe going 7-6 their last 13 games has something to do with the odds.
