Conference of Underdogs: All Five Pac-12 Underdogs Win Outright Saturday

If you would have bet $100 on a parlay of every Pac-12 underdog to win outright on Saturday, you would have won six figures.

The Conference of Champions belonged to the underdogs this weekend.

More times than not, it's tricky to identify which moneyline underdog to wager on and therefore makes it a scary bet. But on Saturday, the Pac-12 proved it can pay off and then some. 

Every Pac-12 team that closed as Vegas underdogs in their respective contests on Saturday ended up winning outright. And if you would have bet them all in a moneyline parlay, well, you would have won a lot of money.  

If Arizona holds on to beat Oregon (Wildcats are up 30-8)—a $100 bet on a ML parlay of every Pac-12 underdog on Saturday's slate (Arizona, Oregon State, Arizona State, Washington State and Cal) would have net you a whopping $116,806.63. Seriously.#ConferenceOfUnderdogs
