If anybody has any information on the Auburn team, was there a player removed from the team, or just benched midway thru the season?
The scandal involves the beginning of the season.
Yes they are Verez Ward and Chris Denson, Ward is a Transfer from UTEP that came along with Barbee (Calipari Disciple). I think Ward was suspended after the Florida game )for undisclosed reasons)

I remember their first 5 or so games didn't have lines. I was surprised because even though they weren't ranked high I figured they're an SEC program and had to have some talent. Anyway, they were blowing teams out early on, but they were mostly against garbage schools like Kennesaw St.
I slammed them on their first lined gamed against Seton Hall as an 8.5 pt dog and lost horribly.
Second, looking over their record, nothing really looks suspicious. They lost games as a big dog and didn't cover some of them. I don't see how an inferior team getting points has any control over shaving points or how much they lose by. Common sense and history show that in point shaving scandals usually it's the better team getting points controlling how much they win by, whether they cover a spread or not.
The only game that stands out is on 12/30 against Georgia Southern where they were a 12.5 favorite and won by 3, but other than that, they've played as a dog, or a small favorite in tight games.
It'll be interesting to see what games in particular the FBI is looking at.
But now maybe it sheds some light as to why 6 of their first 8 games didn't have lines, maybe Vegas caught wind of some shady plot and didn't want to get burned.
