Why in the world did the Arkansas Razorbacks release Houston Nutt as coach? The man knows what he’s doing. In one season he’s turned the Ole Miss Rebels from one of the least respected teams in the SEC to one of the top four teams in the SEC. Ole Miss actually beat the Florida Gators this season. No other team can say that.
This year’s Orange Bowl isn’t what online betting fans had in mind when they figured the Big East would battle the ACC. Online college football betting fans were probably thinking the BC Eagles from the ACC, although Virginia Tech isn’t bad, but Cincinnati from the Big East? Seriously? The Cincinnati Bearcats made it to the Orange Bowl by virtue of their 11 and 2 straight-up record. Among the teams they beat to get there were the West Virginia Mountaineers, ranked in the top twenty to start the season, the South Florida Bulls, Rutgers and Pittsburgh.
The Rose Bowl, the granddaddy of them all, features two of the most storied programs in college football history as the Penn State Nittany Lions travel to the Coliseum to take on the USC Trojans. For sports betting fans, this is one of the more intriguing match-ups of the Bowl Season. Penn State was somewhat of a surprise this year going 11 and 1 straight-up and 7-3-1 against the BetUS online betting spread.
The Georgia Bulldogs wish that they were playing in the BCS Championship instead of the Capital One Bowl. The Bulldogs were ranked number one in almost every sports betting fans’ list to start the college football season, but nobody told the Florida Gators, Alabama Crimson Tide and Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
New Year’s Day isn’t the only day for sports betting fans to dig in and make online bets on college football bowl games.
There are five bowl games slated for December 31st and every single one them will provide BetUS online sportsbook football betting fans an opportunity to make some mullah!
So, let’s not waste any more time and get to the games!
The Oregon Ducks travel to San Diego to take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys in the Holiday Bowl. The Ducks were oh so close again to getting to the Rose Bowl this season but the USC Trojans found a way not to get into the BCS Championship and instead got a bid to the Rose Bowl. Oregon is coming off of a smashing victory over rival Oregon State in their Pac-10 finale.
The Missouri Tigers had everything going their way at the beginning of the season. They had Chase Daniels back at quarterback, they didn’t lose any key defensive players, and if anything they were going to be better because of the experience they garnered by playing in a BCS Bowl Game in 2007. But something happened once the season started – – the Tigers played below expectations.
The footballs should be flying on Saturday when the East Carolina Pirates (8-4 SU, 4-8 ATS) challenge the Tulsa Golden Hurricane (10-2 SU, 7-4 ATS) for the Conference USA title, in NCAA college football sports betting action that is scheduled to get underway at Noon ET at Chapman Stadium (artificial turf) in Tulsa, OK.
The USC Trojans (10-1 SU, 7-4 ATS) can earn a trip to the Rose Bowl on Saturday if they can score a victory over the UCLA Bruins (4-7 SU, 6-5 ATS) in NCAA college football sports betting action in the Pac-10 Conference that is scheduled to begin at 4:30 PM ET at the Rose Bowl (natural turf) in Pasadena, CA.
Two teams who are very familiar with each other will battle for the ACC title for the second year in a row when the Boston College Eagles (9-3 SU, 7-4 ATS) and the Virginia Tech Hokies (8-4 SU, 4-7 ATS) clash for a spot in the Bowl Championship Series, in NCAA college football sports betting action that is slated for kickoff at 1 PM ET Saturday at Raymond James Stadium (natural turf) in Tampa.
The Oklahoma Sooners (11-1 SU, 9-2 ATS) take what they hope will be the final step on the road to the BCS national championship game when they take on the Missouri Tigers (9-3 SU, 5-6 ATS) with the Big 12 title on the line, in NCAA college football sports betting action that is slated to kick off at 8 PM ET on Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium (natural turf) in Kansas City.
The Trojans and Bruins do battle on the grid iron for what feels like the millionth time this Saturday. USC is, like always, one of the top teams in the nation. The UCLA Bruins? Not so much. For sports betting fans neither team has been all that spectacular. Even though the USC Trojans were hyped to the top of Mt. Olympus at the beginning of the season, their record against the spread hasn’t been all that great.
What has happened to the Dennis Erickson coached Arizona State Sun Devils this season? They were considered the second best team in the Pac-10 when the season started. In fact, they were ranked 15th in the nation. Sports betting fans were eagerly anticipating making a bundle on the Sun Devils like they did last season when the Devils surprised the nation by almost winning the Pac-10.
The Pittsburgh Panthers (8-3 SU, 5-6 ATS) coming off another nice upset of West Virginia last week, will lace ’em up with the Connecticut Huskies (7-4 SU, 5-5 ATS) in NCAA college football sports betting action between two Big East teams still looking for the best bowl game they can get to. Kickoff is set for Noon ET at Rentschler Field in Hartford, CT.
The SEC Championship game is finally here. The winner of this game no doubt will garner a spot in the BCS Championship on January 8th. The Alabama Crimson Tide is currently 12 and 0 straight-up and ranked number one in the country. From a sports betting point-of-view, the Crimson Tide have been terrific going 9 and 3 against the BetUS online betting spread. They don’t have a lot of superstar names on their roster, but they play a great brand of offense and their defense is easily one of the best in the nation.
A sad season for the once-proud Washington Huskies (0-11 SU, 1-10 ATS) comes mercifully to an end on Saturday as they take on the bowl-bound California Golden Bears (7-4 SU, 8-3 ATS) in NCAA college football sports betting action in the Pac-10 Conference, scheduled for a 3 PM ET kickoff at Memorial Stadium (artificial turf) in Berkeley, CA.
