Savannah State is a 60-point underdog (on the board at the 5Dimes sportsbook) at Miami on Saturday, and not only is that number not unheard of, it’s not even close to two of the school’s spreads last season. Still, it would tie for the third highest college point spread since 1986, according to records kept by Bovada.lv. Here is a look at that bookmaker’s biggest lines of the past 27 years:
