Largest chalk you ever took?

[Ego74]

Slim posted in another thread about Syracuse being a big public play -32 or so vs. the Bonnies. I never lay big numbers, i think the biggest fave i ever played was like 23 or so a long time ago. what's the biggest favorite you ever bet???

1981-

Iowa -23 over Northwestern.

The Hawkeyes jumped to a 30-0 lead at the end of the 1st period and cruised to a 64-0 victory.

Years ago in CFB I layed -50 with K. St. against N. Texas. You guessed it, I LOST.

A few years ago I played Duke early -43 against some scrub. Bought back half the bet at +47'. The line hovevered between those numbers the last 10 min of the game and the **** team scored the last 2 baskets to lose by 42, no ****.

as a younger, dumber bettor, i took K State on the ML that year they lost to Tex a+m in OT in the Big 12 title game. They were on their way to the Natl Championship game that year. Then dummy me takes them minus the pts in the Alamo Bowl vs. Purdue a month later, and they lost there, showing no heart, nor emotion. Damn, I was a ******* then!!!!!

[THE SHRINK]

When I was in the 5th grade, this teacher of mine left a big piece of chalk hanging down from the blackboard. I think it was about 12 inches long. I decided to take it when she wasn't looking because the scratching noise it made would make my hair curl...

I believe that was the biggest chalk I ever took...:smoker2:

never bet it but, i remember seeing nebraska as a 70 something point favorite in the mid-80's. mike rozier was rushing for like 350 yards a game...dont know how often they covered.
