Nebraska Reacts Survey: Does Corn Nation Place Their Bets?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Nebraska fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.

For this week’s survey, I actually wanted to get a handle on just how the Nation of Corn feels about sports wagering. Full disclosure – I used to bet fairly regularly on sports, mostly college football, for several years when younger. It wasn’t for me, I learned eventually. Nothing ethical or moral about it – when I lost, I was pissed and miserable, but when I won, there was little joy, just relief mostly.

So it just wasn’t any fun either way to be honest. But don’t get me wrong, I’m still fascinated behind the math of it all. Betting lines, the over/under, the straight-up money line and prop bets, whether they be individual player numbers or the novelty types like who will win the Super Bowl coin flip.

But rest easy – this week’s questions revolve around the straightforward. Do you bet on college football, and if yes, how much and how often? And if you do, do you wager on the Huskers? If yes, how did you fare and do you ever bet against the Corn? – AK
