All signs are pointing to another SEC title, and possibly a third BCS crown in four years.<\/p>\n<p>After a down year, LSU is rated at +200, and they\u2019ll have Charles Scott aiming for another 1,000 yard season out of the backfield, which should ease the load on pivots Jarrett Lee and Jordan Jefferson. There are six starters back from a defense that was 32nd in the country, but they weren\u2019t the LSU that usually strikes fear into the hearts of the opposition. October 10th\u2019s home game with Florida will be a huge play in your offshore sportsbook.<\/p>\n<p>Alabama is listed at +300 after losing the SEC title game to Florida, and then they were upset by Utah in the Sugar Bowl. Nine players return from the country\u2019s third-ranked defense, and they\u2019ll have to be just as good in 2009 as the Crimson Tide have a new quarterback, Greg McElroy. He\u2019ll be throwing mainly to Julio Jones, who could be the nation\u2019s most talented wide receiver.<\/p>\n<p>Mississippi comes in at +500 according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.payperhead.com\/\">gambling software<\/a>, and the Rebels also have a stacked defense as eight players are back from a unit that was 19th in the NCAA. On offense, Jevan Snead is the second-best quarterback in the SEC, but he\u2019ll have three new starters up front protecting him. Dexter McCluster is a threat either rushing or catching the ball, and he could be the next Percy Harvin, Florida\u2019s ex-dual threat who went to the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>Georgia was the preseason No.1 in 2008, but a tough schedule and a slow start doomed them. But with 13 starters back on both sides of the ball, the Bulldogs could be a solid sleeper in your football picks with odds of +650. The losses of Matt Stafford and Knowshon Moreno are huge, and there will be a lot of pressure on Joe Cox to fill Stafford\u2019s shoes under center. Halloween\u2019s annual meeting with Florida should let the Bulldogs know how close they are to competing at the BCS level.<\/p>\n<p>Auburn wraps up the list of top contenders with odds of +800, and the Tigers\u2019 last action of 2008? A 36-0 beatdown at the hands of bitter rivals Alabama in the \u201cIron Bowl\u201d, which leaves a bad taste in the mouth. The Tigers have seven starters back on each side of the ball, and the offense should be led by Kodi Burns, although a lot will be expected from back Ben Tate. They need something as Auburn was 104th in total offense. The defense should be in good hands as they were 29th in the country, but they\u2019d be even better if the offense didn\u2019t leave them on the field for so long. You can bet that November 27th is circled on the calendar, as that is when Alabama comes to town. If they can get their act together on offense, the Tigers could elbow their way into some of your sports picks this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NCAA football betting<\/strong><strong> pick: Florida over LSU in the SEC title game<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"\/internet-sportsbooks\/\">WAGER AT OUR BEST FOOTBALL WAGERING SPORTSBOOKS FOR ALL THE 2009\/10 CFB SEASON GAMES &#8211; PLUS GET NCAAF FUTURE LINES!
