LOOKING FOR THE BEST NFL CAPPERS ON THE PLANET FOR YOUR MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL GAMBLING PICKS??? —>
The NFL betting hits just keep on coming for the Monday nighter. Last week, the Colts and Dolphins treated us to a tight game. This week, football fans feast their eyes on shiny new Cowboys Stadium as the Panthers and Cowboys go head to head in what should be a high-scoring affair.
Carolina Panthers @ Dallas Cowboys
Monday, September 28 – Cowboys Stadium, Dallas, TX
Betting Line: Dallas -3, O/U 47
Two quarterbacks in desperate need of good game will be on display Monday night in Dallas. Tony Romo is coming off one of his worst games in the NFL, throwing for a paltry 127 yards and three interceptions last week in a 33-31 loss to the New York Giants. The loss only reaffirmed to the Romo-haters that he’s the most overrated quarterback in football.
Not many people believed that the Miami Hurricanes were as good as their record indicated. Nobody that is except, well, Miami Hurricane fans. As often is the case in college football betting, the gamblers were right, for the most part, when the Miami Hurricanes finally came down to earth this past Saturday. They were thumped by the more talented Virginia Tech Hokies.
If your team never gives you any hope of winning, the loss often won’t sting as bad. You can simply write it off as a bad decision, try to learn from it and move on.
Saturday’s Wake Forest-Boston College game seemed to be one of those types of games for anyone who bet the Demon Deacons.

Illinois Fighting Illini (1-1 SU, 0-1 ATS) at Ohio State Buckeyes (2-1 SU, 2-1 ATS)
Saturday September 26: 3:30 p.m.
BetUS Football Betting Odds: Ohio State -14, Total Points: 50
Coming off a very impressive 38-0 victory over Toledo last Saturday, the Ohio State Buckeyes welcome a familiar foe to the Horseshoe this weekend, and one that always seems to give them trouble.
The Cal Bears have been making plenty of noise this year, going 3-0 SU and 2-0 ATS so far. The big reason for that is their Heisman candidate, Jahvid Best, totaling 412 yards on the ground, and 8 touchdowns with a 7.8 yards-per-carry average. He’ll get a chance to open up a can of whoop-ass on an Oregon defense that’s allowed 151.0 rushing yards against, but will it be enough to cover the betting line?
Indiana Hoosiers (3-0 SU, 2-0 ATS) at Michigan Wolverines (3-0 SU, 3-0 ATS)
Saturday, September 26: 12:00 p.m.
BetUS.com Football Betting Odds: Michigan -20, Total Points 54 ½
Oh what a difference a month makes.
At this time four weeks ago, Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez had to defend himself and his players, after a 3-9 disaster last year that coupled with allegations of offseason NCAA violations that left his team in turmoil. Now entering conference play, all the bad is behind them, as Michigan is 3-0 and thinking that they might have what it takes to win the Big 10.
Miami vs. Virginia Tech Preview – Get On That Miami Bandwagon!
I’m a big fan of hype trains, and none are bigger right now than the University of Miami’s sudden and unexpected locomotive of awesomeness. The Hurricanes have thundered out to a 2-0 SU record, and now face the Virginia Tech Hokies. When the ninth ranked team clashes with the eleventh ranked team, it’ll be an ACC matchup that could very well define the division. Either this becomes Miami’s to lose, or another wide open affair.
Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles (3-0 SU, 0-2 ATS) at Kansas Jayhawks (3-0 SU, 2-0 ATS)

BetUS NCAA Football Betting Odds: KANSAS -13.5, Total 58.5
