It’s time for bowling in college football. This year’s college sports betting schedule is packed with 34 bowl games over 20 days, starting on December 20 and running until January 8 (the date of the national championship game).
The tenth-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes (10-2 SU, 5-6 ATS, 5-6 O/U) have won and covered the spread in three straight games for BetUS NCAA college football online betting backers. The third-ranked Texas Longhorns (11-1 SU, 9-3 ATS, 6-6 O/U) have also won three consecutive games in the BetUS Sportsbook, while covering the spread for backers in each of their last two contests.
The Penn State Nittany Lions (11-1 SU, 7-3-1 ATS, 7-4 O/U) have won two consecutive games in emphatic fashion since getting surprised by Iowa back on Nov. 8. The Southern California Trojans (11-1 SU, 6-6 ATS, 3-8-1 O/U) have ripped off nine straight wins in the BetUS Sportsbook and are playing their best football of the season at the right time despite not covering the spread for backers in three of their last four.
The BCS Selection Committee went ahead and filled out the slate for the BCS Bowl Games for the 2008 – 2009 NCAA College Football Season. For online betting fans, it doesn’t get any better than making online football bets on these bowl games.
Let’s be honest BetUS NCAA college football sports betting enthusiasts, while Sunday’s BCS selection show may have featured a bunch of really nice graphics and some statistics that showed just how inept the flawed computer-based system really is, NCAA college football bettors didn’t get many surprises in the way of teams getting the short end of the stick.
The Big 12 title game between the Oklahoma Sooners and Missouri Tigers feels like there is almost a third team involved, the Texas Longhorns.
The Tigers are the opponent that will take the field, but the Longhorns have just as much vested interest in the outcome. You see, it is assumed that if the Sooners fall, Texas will slip into the other spot in the national title game in January.
The winner of the game between the Florida Gators and Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday afternoon will punch their ticket to the national championship game.
Strangely, oddsmakers give Florida a huge edge, installing the Gators as 10-point favorites over the unbeaten Tide. Players at Sportsbook.com agree, with 62% backing the chalk. CBS will have the broadcast at 4 pm ET.
The ACC will crown its champion on Saturday afternoon, and sports betting fanatics will have another chance to boost their bankrolls with BetUS Sportsbook when the Boston College Eagles (9-3, 7-4 ATS) clash with the Virginia Tech Hokies (8-4, 4-7 ATS) from Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay.
With all of the talk of a playoff in college football, Saturday’s SEC Championship Game from the Georgia Dome in Atlanta is likely a play-in game to the BCS National Championship. BetUS Sportsbook members will have all of their sports betting options available for one of the most anticipated games of the season when the Alabama Crimson Tide (12-0, 9-3 ATS) face off with the Florida Gators (11-1, 9-2 ATS).
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.
Though it has been a wacky season in Conference USA, the two preseason favorites to meet in the championship game will hook up on Saturday afternoon in Tulsa when the East Carolina Pirates (8-4, 4-8 ATS) head into battle with the Tulsa Golden Hurricane (10-2, 7-4 ATS).
