These two teams will meet in Atlanta for Saturday afternoon\u2019s conference championship game with the winner playing for the national title.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The Gators are 9 \u00bd-point favorites and while it may seem surprising because Alabama is ranked #1 and undefeated, no one is playing better than Florida right now. The Gators are playing tremendous on both sides of the ball and this could be the biggest challenge of Nick Saban\u2019s college coaching career.<\/p>\n<p>One big injury note is that Florida\u2019s star receiver\/running back, Percy Harvin could miss the game due to a sprained ankle. Harvin is the second leading rusher on the team and the leading receiver and is a big reason why the Gators are averaging almost 54 PPG in their last seven contests.<\/p>\n<p>The Big 12 championship game will be played Saturday night in Kansas City with <strong>Oklahoma (-17) vs. Missouri<\/strong>. The Big 12 South race set off a national firestorm as there was a three-way tie between Texas, Oklahoma and Texas Tech after last Saturday\u2019s games.<\/p>\n<p>The winner was determined by the highest BCS ranking and Texas Tech was out of the equation because they got blown out by Oklahoma two weeks ago and they barely beat Baylor last week.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" title=\"Sportsbook.com\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_2744b_292\" alt=\"\" width=\"210\" height=\"140\" \/>That meant it came down to Texas and Oklahoma and the Sooners\u2019 strong recent play outweighed the fact that the Longhorns beat them earlier in the year on a neutral site in Dallas.<\/p>\n<p>Oklahoma will now play Big 12 North champion Missouri, who lost three conference games this season and is ranked #20 in the country. It is assumed by most that the Sooners will win the game and advance to the national title. That\u2019s why Oklahoma is second at <strong>Sportsbook.com<\/strong> to win the national championship at 8:5 odds.<\/p>\n<p>The question remains what happens if Oklahoma somehow loses to Missouri. Texas (7:1 to win the national title) is the most likely to go although it could be USC (15:1) as well.<\/p>\n<p>USC plays their biggest rival this weekend, the UCLA Bruins. If the Trojans win, they will play in the Rose Bowl against Penn State. USC embarrassed Charlie Weis and Notre Dame last week, 38-3 as 32 point chalk. The spread this week has USC giving 30 points.<\/p>\n<p>Some other games that don\u2019t have national title implications are Ball State (-14.5) versus Buffalo for the MAC Championship on Friday night. Ball State has been a great story this season going a perfect 12-0 so far.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, Boston College will play Virginia Tech for the ACC championship from Tampa. The Eagles beat them once already this year and the Hokies come in as one-point dogs.<\/p>\n<h2>Bet on Week 15 College Football Action at SPORTSBOOK.COM &#8211; Check them out today click here NOW!<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Florida Gators are ranked 4th in the just released BCS Standings but they are favored to win the national championship at Sportsbook.com&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1141,25],"tags":[5758,5759,122,5752,166,5627,279,5753,312,321,5617,5761,650,5221,767,2327,2728,5756,1039,5626,1178,5757,5760,5754,5755],"class_list":["post-5109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports","category-sportsbooks","tag-ball-st-vs-buffalo","tag-bc-vs-virginia-tech","tag-bcs-championship","tag-bet-on-week-15","tag-betting-odds","tag-big-12-championship","tag-cfb","tag-cfb-week-15","tag-college-football","tag-college-football-lines","tag-florida-vs-alabama","tag-gambling-matchups","tag-matchups","tag-national-title","tag-ncaa-football-odds","tag-oddsmakers","tag-online-sportsbook-betting","tag-ou-vs-missouri","tag-previews","tag-sec-championship","tag-sportsbookcom","tag-usc-vs-ucla","tag-week-15-cfb-lines","tag-week-15-lines","tag-week-15-odds"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5109"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5109\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":106532,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5109\/revisions\/106532"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
