Vegas says we win 5.5 games this year

I strongly disagree.

If USC wins 5.5 games this year I will personally send everyone on this board $1M!

5.5 is a wimpy "we don't know prediction" and we are afraid to to go with 5 or 6.
Which game do we get half a win and is that 1st half or second half?

This is for betting purposes only, that is why the .5 is added.

I'll take the over. Doesn't take a Harvard education to see that.

Not a gambler, just poking fun at so called prognosticators in general. But particularly those who would pick Vandy as a joke or as a "hey, look at me" prediction.

So the .5 means we'll win a half of a game that we ultimately lose?
