USC Gets Most Action To Win National Title

More money has been bet on USC to win the College Football Playoff than any other team at the Westgate Sportsbook in Las Vegas.

“America’s team,” Ed Salmons, veteran oddsmaker for the SuperBook at Westgate Las Vegas, said of USC. “They’re our biggest loser in the futures book.”

The oddsmakers must be laughing at the fans betting on USC when Alabama is considered the actual favorite. USC might play in the weak Pac-12 (this year) but beating Ohio State and Alabama in a playoff?

At DraftKings, Alabama has attracted four times as many national title bets as any other team.

But he can’t distinguish reality from fantasy. And he’s sucked in so many Republican Senators and politicians like John McCain and Robert Gates. Total con-artist.

  8. Wolf: “The oddsmakers must be laughing at the fans betting on USC when Alabama is considered the actual favorite”

    Pump the brakes, and let me add some context! Over the last 8 seasons, the preseason favorite has only won 3 out of the previous 8 title games. Alabama, as a preseason favorite, has 3 wins in 6 appearances.

    The reality is, that oddsmakers are laughing at people betting the favorites. Wolf is the same guy who goes to the horse races betting on all the favorites and continues to leave with empty pockets.

      1. PT: I don’t think the problem will be with the offensive line or the offense. We will put up big numbers even against good teams. The fact that Caleb Williams can run and throw is a huge difference maker. The question is on defense. We were terrible last year. We have a new coaching staff and some interesting transfers but I am not confident. We may have to win some games by outscoring the opposition. That does not always work. We may lose to Oregon State, UCLA, Utah, and Notre Dame. On the other hand, we may win all of those games by scoring in excess of 42 points.

    I’m not trying to put words in your mouth but you did sound very confident about Biden in your answer to MG. But you did say “I’m a supporter of the Democratic party, as a whole, and vote along party lines”. I guess I’m just trying to figure out how anyone could support todays democratic party.
    I would think that the dems would see the writing on the wall when the party starts supporting concepts like “a man can have a baby” and “you can be a boy today and a girl tomorrow” or there are not 2 genders but 50-100 and when mobs from your party spend the whole summer burning down america and when mobs from your party start threatening Supreme Court Justices and drown out conservative speakers on campus and say things like they want to defund the police and in some cases they even say that they want to get rid of the police and when democrat run cities are approaching anarchy and when people are running out of blue states as fast as they can.
    I believe in free speech and free thought. I’m not trying to say that dems cannot believe what they want to believe. I’m just trying to understand why they still follow this bankrupt party in lieu of where it seems to be headed. Back in 1945, if I were a young person, I would have been a democrat. They left me. I didn’t leave them.

    3. Failure: America’s global image is in shambles:

      America’s global image declined significantly under Trump, who repeatedly insulted key US allies while cozying up to dictators.

      The former president’s tendency to push important allies away and isolate the US, including by pulling out of landmark international agreements like the Paris climate accord, had a palpable impact.

      People across the world expressed negative views on Trump. Pew Research Center in January 2020 released a survey of 32 countries that showed a median of 64% said they do not have confidence in Trump to do the right thing in world affairs, and just 29% expressed confidence in the president.

      Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic also left the US embarrassed on the world stage, and created a void in global leadership that China has rushed to fill.

      5. Failure: COVID-19 pandemic:

        Trump’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic will likely go down as one of the biggest disasters in US history. Hundreds of thousands of Americans have died, and millions are unemployed.

        On the day Trump left office, there had been more than 24.3 million confirmed COVID-19 cases in the US and over 405,000 reported fatalities. The US has the worst coronavirus outbreak in the world. As of January 20, the US COVID-19 death toll was on the verge of surpassing the total number of American service members killed during World War II.

        Despite this, Trump repeatedly downplayed the threat of the virus and contradicted top public-health experts, flouting recommendations from advisors on his own White House coronavirus task force.

        In March 2020, Trump privately admitted to veteran reporter Bob Woodward (on tape) that he was deliberately misleading the public on the dangers of the virus in an effort to avoid inducing panic.

        Public health experts have cited Trump’s nonchalant approach to the virus and tendency to reject science as one of the primary factors in why the US emerged as the epicenter.

        Trump refused to accept responsibility for his failed response to the pandemic, blaming China instead.

      6. Failure: The US economy:

        Trump often took credit for the robust US economy before the pandemic, ignoring that much of the growth began during the Obama administration.

        The US faced one of the worst economic crises in its history under Trump, which was intrinsically linked to his disastrous response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

        Coronavirus lockdowns in early 2020 and reduced consumer spending led to tens of millions of job losses as whole segments of the economy sputtered. The economy has since begun adding back jobs, but is far from a full recovery as the US struggles to contain the coronavirus and Biden takes over. Roughly 22 million jobs were lost from February to April

        As Trump left office, the US national debt was at the highest levels since World War II. And US economic growth was set to average just above 0% for Trump’s first term because of the pandemic recession, according to The Washington Post.

        Though the economy is still far from recovered, Trump also failed to bring Congress together to pass a second coronavirus stimulus package prior to Election Day as Americans across the country struggled to cover rent and other bills. The GOP-controlled Senate instead prioritized confirming Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, essentially placing the economy and the livelihoods of Americans on the back-burner.

      7. Failure: Charlottesville and George Floyd:

        Trump’s response to a deadly neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, was one of the most controversial moments in his presidency.

        It was emblematic of Trump’s struggle to bring the country together after tragedies, and more generally. His response also typified his controversial record on race relations and white supremacy.

        Trump blamed “many sides” for the violence at the rally, which resulted in the death of a counterprotester, Heather Heyer. He later said there were “very fine people on both sides.”

        The former president was excoriated by Republicans and Democrats alike over his response and his failure to offer a swift and forceful condemnation of white-supremacist violence.

        GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, often one of Trump’s fiercest defenders in Congress, at the time said the former president’s words were “dividing Americans, not healing them.”

        “President Trump took a step backward by again suggesting there is moral equivalency between the white supremacist, neo-Nazis and KKK members,” Graham added.

        In the wake of the brutal death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police and the nationwide protests that followed, Trump also failed to rise to the occasion. He’s done far more to divide the country than bring it together.

        The former president had peaceful protesters tear-gassed near the White House so he could pose for a photo with a Bible at a nearby church. He’s consistently demonized anti-racism demonstrators, and controversially sent federal agents into US cities to squash unrest and intimidate the local population. Trump has elevated conspiracy theorists and people who’ve threatened protesters with guns.

        Historians have warned that Trump’s tactics mirror those of authoritarian regimes.

        Trump has frequently employed racist rhetoric during his presidency, but especially during times of heightened racial tensions.

        Polling has shown that the vast majority of Black Americans view Trump as racist, and his approval rating with this demographic stood at 14% in late 2020, according to Gallup.

      8. Failure: America’s global image is in shambles:

        America’s global image declined significantly under Trump, who repeatedly insulted key US allies while cozying up to dictators.

        The former president’s tendency to push important allies away and isolate the US, including by pulling out of landmark international agreements like the Paris climate accord, had a palpable impact.

        People across the world expressed negative views on Trump. Pew Research Center in January 2020 released a survey of 32 countries that showed a median of 64% said they do not have confidence in Trump to do the right thing in world affairs, and just 29% expressed confidence in the president.

        Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic also left the US embarrassed on the world stage, and created a void in global leadership that China has rushed to fill

      9. Failure: Family separations and the deaths of migrant children:

        Trump in 2016 campaigned on reducing undocumented immigration, pledging to take a hardline approach.

        He made good on that promise when coming into office, but was accused of human-rights abuses and violating international law by the UN.

        The Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” policy on illegal border crossings led to the separations of at least 5,500 families and saw children placed in cages.

        The president of the American Academy of Pediatrics at the time described the practice as “nothing less than government-sanctioned child abuse.”

        After widespread backlash, Trump issued an executive order in June 2018 to halt the family separations, and a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to reunite all those it had separated. But the fallout from the separations is ongoing.

        Trump falsely blamed his predecessor, former President Barack Obama, for the policy that saw thousands of children separated from their parents.

        At least six migrant children died in US custody, leading to widespread condemnation of conditions in detention facilities.

        The UN human-rights chief, Michelle Bachelet, in July 2019 said she was “shocked” by the US government’s treatment of migrant children and the conditions they faced in detention facilities after crossing the border from Mexico.

        “As a pediatrician, but also as a mother and a former head of state, I am deeply shocked that children are forced to sleep on the floor in overcrowded facilities, without access to adequate healthcare or food, and with poor sanitation conditions,” Bachelet, the former president of Chile, stated.

      10. Failure: Iran, Syria, and Afghanistan:

        Trump’s decision to unilaterally withdraw the US from the 2015 nuclear deal in May 2018 has induced chaos throughout the Middle East.

        It remains one of Trump’s most unpopular decisions in the global arena, and has been condemned by top US allies who were also signatories to the deal.

        The former president failed to thwart Iran’s aggressive behavior in the region through a maximum pressure campaign, meant to squeeze Tehran into negotiating a more stringent version of the pact.

        After a series of incidents in the Persian Gulf region in 2019, tensions between Washington and Tehran reached historic heights and sparked fears of war. These fears were exacerbated after Trump ordered a strike that killed Iran’s top general, Qassem Soleimani, in early January 2020. The strike led Iran to retaliate and fire on US troops in the region, and dozens were seriously injured.

        Iran also abandoned the 2015 nuclear deal, which was designed to prevent it from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

        Trump’s decision to pull US troops out of northern Syria in October 2019 was also among his most disastrous foreign policy moves. In doing so, Trump effectively abandoned US-allied Kurdish forces who bore the brunt of the US-led campaign against ISIS to a Turkish military invasion.

        The withdrawal induced a humanitarian crisis and created a security vacuum that Russia, Iran, and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, an accused war criminal, all benefited from.

        Trump repeatedly pledged to end “endless wars,” zeroing in on Afghanistan. He wanted to remove all US troops from Afghanistan by the November election, but that didn’t happen.

        Meanwhile, The New York Times in June 2020 reported that US intelligence officials determined Russia paid bounties to Taliban-linked Afghan militants to kill US troops.

        The Trump administration didn’t take any known responses. Though the White House claimed Trump was not initially briefed on the matter, reporting from multiple outlets suggests otherwise. Trump in a July 2020 interview said he had not confronted Russian President Vladimir Putin on the matter.
