If I were to do like a 10 team parlay of heavy favorites without spreads, what would it pay?
For instance, if I took Auburn, West Virginia, VTech, GTech, LSU, Florida, Rutgers, Michigan, Georgia, and Louisville this weekend - what would that have paid for a $20 bet?

It would pay very little. Many of the teams you mentioned were 20 and 30 point favorites.
If you played an 8 team parlay with no point spreads and each favorite you used was about a 6 point favorite, you couldn't even get 20-1 on that. It would be a different story if you took 8 teams in games that were pick 'em. If you tokk 8 teams in games where the line was pick 'em, the odds of hittin that would be 255-1. There's no sportsbook that would give you anything close to that but you might find one that would give you 200-1 or so.
