I took Kent State -3 against Army. Won by 14.

I've got West Virginia -5. Not looking good right now but its early.

That's a loss.

I actually like LSU -3 tonight.

I had Wisconsin too, and have Stanford +9.5.

I had Michigan at -25, Stanford at +11, and WVU at -6. Screw you WVU.

Question for some.

I had a 3-team Parlay with Arkansas -17 over Kentucky.

Game was called in the 3rd, UK down 49-7, after their administration asked for it to end.

Bet was returned with "no action" and wasn't fully paid. I won the other 2 games in the Parlay. Shouldn't it still be credited? Clearly it was going to be covered...

Meh. Since it wasn't official, I would say you should be credited for 2 wins and a push in the parlay, not full odds. As much as it sucks, I'm almost positive that will be exactly what the company will have laid out in the rules. A game isn't complete until it's complete.

I'm just pissed because it was a shoe-in bet...I can see the argument but a 2-team parlay win vs a 3-team is a big difference.

$12 to win $40 instead of $12 to win $69...weak.

I completely agree with your logic, but also think you have 0 complaint because every gambling company will have those terms laid out. It's shitty, but on the flipside it would have been a push if you were behind too. At least those rules are laid out ahead of time.
