The real meat of the story seems to just be they are being investigated for accepting cash and gifts. Like pretty much any school could pretty charged with.Players who agreed to participate were told about the betting line, the point spread for a particular game. If the team were a three-point favorite, anyone who bet on the Rockets would win if the Rockets won by four points or more.
Anyone who bet on the opponent could still win if the opponent lost by three points and less, the complaint said.
“Once Gary and the players knew the line, they would decide if they could beat the spread,” the complaint said. “If they were picked as an underdog by 10 points, they would decide if they could beat the 10 point spread. If they were picked as a favorite by a certain number of points, the players would decide if they would most likely win by that much.”
Then there was the NIU/Toledo game this past november, 2/3rds of it was played in the fog, i had NIU BIG on the ML, and they were stopped 4 times in a row from the 1 yard line to finish the game, what was that, reverse point shaving by Toledo?!
Sounds like a normal game. Unless you think the coach and the refs are in on it. haha.yea the same game the refs decided to call pass intereference TWICE on fourth down when the player wasn't touched, only to see the die on the 1.
Toledo also passed up a couple of real easy FG attempts in that one.
I dont know. This doesnt sound like fixing to me.
Sounds like they are just aware of the spread.

Exactly. Article title is wrong.
That game was COMPLETLY fucked up, anyone who saw it knows it too, NIU RB was one of the bets in america, does nothing for 90% of the game. I still can't believe they didn't score from the 1.yea the same game the refs decided to call pass intereference TWICE on fourth down when the player wasn't touched, only to see the die on the 1.
