The 2012 NFL season is winding towards the playoffs, and there are just five weeks left to go before the season comes to an end and the NFL playoff picture will be set. There is a lot of jockeying for position yet to do, and Week 13 will be lucky for some, and incredibly unlucky for others.

If you’re a fan of relatively surprising results, the Week 13 odds are probably for you. There are a tremendous number of close games that could go either way, but there are just four NFL point spreads this week thus far that are featuring odds of a field goal or less.

One of those games is the crucial tilt at Qualcomm Stadium, where the Cincinnati Bengals and San Diego Chargers will meet. The Bengals are back into the discussion for the AFC Wild Card spot, and they really would love to have this one to potentially take over as the lead dog for the sixth and final postseason bid in the AFC. The Chargers are on the verge of a disaster, and after losing a heartbreaker last weekend at home, a loss in this one would probably signal the end of the season and the end of Head Coach Norv Turner. Still, the Bengals are getting the nod by a two points.

Another of the close calls is going to come on Monday Night Football. The New York Giants and Washington Redskins are separated by just two games in the NFC East, and one of two things is going to happen this weekend. Either the G-Men are going to end up pulling away from the rest of the pack and really locking down the division title, or they’re going to be in a dog fight down the stretch. This is the chance for QB Robert Griffin III to shine, and the NFL odds suggest that he has a shot of pulling off the upset, as he and his Skins are just +2.5.

The other narrow NFL pointspreads are in games that really just aren’t all that interesting. The Carolina Panthers are laying a field goal to the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium, while the Oakland Raiders are -1.5 against the Cleveland Browns. About the only interested man in these two games is QB Matt Barkley, who might be heading to one of these teams next year as the face of the franchise.

On the other end of the spectrum, there are three games that feature point spreads of greater than a touchdown, and these are some really interesting ones. The Dallas Cowboys are coming off of the debacle on Thanksgiving Day at home against Washington, and now, they are going to have to take on a Philadelphia Eagles team that is falling faster than an airplane without an engine. The Cowboys are giving 9.5.

Ironically, that’s the exact same point spread that the Green Bay Packers are favored over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Both of these teams were beaten last week by contenders in the NFC, and they are both going to really need a win in this one to get back on good footing. The loser is going to be in a lot of trouble in the race in the NFC Wild Card chase, and that team could be out of the chase to win the NFC North as well, which might be a death sentence in the crowded and top heavy NFC.

The third big favorites are the New England Patriots, who actually can wrap up the AFC East if they beat the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. They’re three up games right now, and they’re going to be up four with four to play if they win in South Beach. If not though, this could become a relatively interesting stretch run for both teams. Remember that Miami is just a game out in the AFC Wild Card race as well. The Fins are getting a 7.5 point head start to cover the spread in wacky Week 13.

Elsewhere around the league, the general feeling is that the rich are going to get richer, and the poor are going to get poorer. The Chicago Bears are the perfect example. They’re heading up the NFC North at 8-3 and are right on the verge of a first round bye in the playoffs. They’ll take on the Seattle Seahawks, who are going to be playing in their second straight road game a long way from home. The Hawks, who are in the final playoff slot right now, are +4.5.

Seattle is still trying to chase down the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC West as well, but the Niners aren’t relenting at 8-2-1. QB Colin Kaepernick clearly has taken over as the man of the hour for the Niners, and he is going to be facing a second straight road test in this one as well. San Francisco is favored by a touchdown over the St. Louis Rams in a rematch of the tie game at Candlestick Park from a few weeks ago.

On Thursday Night Football, the Atlanta Falcons are favored by 3.5 against the New Orleans Saints, while the other 10-1 team in the league, the Houston Texans, are giving 5.5 to the Tennessee Titans.

Elsewhere at the top of the AFC, the Denver Broncos are -7 at home against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, while the Baltimore Ravens are -6.5 at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are hoping to get QB Ben Roethlisberger back in the lineup.

There are only three games left that we have not referenced. The Indianapolis Colts and Detroit Lions are going to be battling it out to get into the playoffs in their respective conferences. Detroit knows that it is going to need to win out in all likelihood to get into the playoffs, in a very tough task in the NFC North. The Buffalo Bills are still in the thick of the fight in the AFC Wild Card race with so many teams at the bottom struggling, and they are going to need to take down the Jacksonville Jaguars to keep that dream intact. The Bills are favored by six in Orchard Park. Finally, the New York Jets, even without Fireman Ed in attendance, are laying 4.5 to the slumping Arizona Cardinals, who really have to have Head Coach Ken Whisenhunt on alert for his job after a seventh loss in a row last week.

This is one of the more interesting weeks of NFL totals that we have seen all year. It shouldn’t go as much of a surprise that the Falcons and Saints are combining for the highest ‘total’ of the season. Both QB Matt Ryan and QB Drew Brees have the ability to really light it up, and they are both clearly going to be able to put points up in bunches against defenses that have both been suspect at best. However, the number of 55.5 is one of the highest that you’ll see, not just this year, but really ever in the NFL.

There are four other games that are featuring ‘totals’ in the 50s as well. QB Peyton Manning and company only put up 17 points last week against Kansas City, but the team had dropped at least 30 in five games in a row before that. That’s why the Bucs and Broncos are sitting in at 50.5 right now. Indy and Detroit feature a ‘total’ of 51.5 after the offensive showcase on Thanksgiving Day in Motown, while Monday Night Football also features a ‘total’ of 51.

However, on the other end of the spectrum, there are at least two games that feature ‘totals’ as low as we have seen this year. The Jets and the Cardinals are two of the worst offensive teams in the league right now, and that’s why they have the lowest over/under on the Week 13 odds at 36.5. The Bears and Seahawks aren’t much higher at 37.5, though. Don’t be shocked when push comes to shove, if the Steelers and Ravens end up in the 30s as well. The opening number is set at 40, but that could dip if the news about Big Ben isn’t good.

It’s Championship Week across college football, and here at Bankroll Sports, we’re paying attention to all of the great Championship Game odds and Week 14 odds for what should be a remarkable finale to as good of a season as we have seen in quite some time.

The week starts off on Thursday with the de facto Big East Championship Game. The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are three point favorites to win the Big East outright, but the Louisville Cardinals are going to try to make a big time mess of the standings if they can pull off the upset. The atmosphere in Piscataway should be electric, and these two teams are very hard to separate. Neither has played well, and both are coming off of brutal losses, so the only tiebreaker that the oddsmakers really have is home field advantage, and that field goal is exactly the margin that Rutgers is favored by. This game also features one of the lowest ‘totals’ of the week at just 43 points, though the other Big East game of note between the Connecticut Huskies and the Cincinnati Bearcats on Saturday is even lower at 39.

From the world of defense to the world of offense in the MAC, where the MAC Championship Game odds are going to be as tightly contested as we have seen in years and years. The last time that the conference had this much of a buzz, the Ball State Cardinals were on the verge of busting the BCS, only to get knocked off by the Buffalo Bulls. Since then, this conference has been looked at as one of the worst in America, only just in front of the Sun Belt, but it has been a banner year for the MAC. Both the Kent State Golden Flashes and the Northern Illinois Huskies have a chance of going to the BCS. Kent State is almost a lock with a win, while Northern Illinois will clearly need a win and some big time help. There are actually three 1,000+ yard rushers in this game, so the points could be flying on the scoreboard in a hurry in spite of the fact that these two defenses are both quite stout. NIU is laying five thanks to QB Jordan Lynch, one of the most dynamic players in the country, though that number has already started dropping from the outset of the weekend with still plenty of time to go until kickoff.

The other clash on Friday is the Pac-12 Championship Game, where either the UCLA Bruins or the Stanford Cardinal will be celebrating with roses in their mouths. Yes, the trip to the Rose Bowl will be handed to the winner of this game. This is a rematch of last week’s game at the Rose Bowl Stadium, a game which Stanford won handily to move on to this spot and to host the conference title game. It’s one of the biggest games in the last 30 years of Stanford football, and it is also a chance for UCLA to prove that it is back on the map as a team to beat out West. Still, this is expected to be a one-sided blowout, with the Cardinal favored by nine on “The Farm.”

The Big XII has itself a big mess to try to work out this week, as there is at least one, and possibly two BCS bowl bids to hand out. The Kansas State Wildcats are in the driver’s seat right now, as they know that a win removes all doubt that they’ll be in the Fiesta Bowl. It’s Senior Day as well, and there will be a lot of emotion surrounding QB Collin Klein in his final game of his potential Heisman Trophy winning season. Klein needs a huge game to catch up to QB Johnny Manziel, but he has a chance to make the final statement in the final week of the campaign. Kansas State is one of the bigger favorites of this Championship Weekend, laying 10 tothe Texas Longhorns, who also have an outside shot of going to the BCS.

The biggest favorites though, are the West Virginia Mountaineers. They’re giving 20 to the Kansas Jayhawks in what should be the only game that has very little to no doubt as to who the victor truly will be.

That’s definitely not all from the Big XII, though. The Oklahoma State Cowboys and the Baylor Bears are involved in what might be the wildest game of the season. The ‘total’ in this one is already set at 81.5, and we expect that that number is going to only go up as the week rolls on, as these are two of the best offenses (and worst defenses) that the conference and the nation have to offer. It’s the team that beat Oklahoma State last week though, the Oklahoma Sooners, that are under the most pressure. The Sooners are squaring off with the TCU Horned Frogs in Fort Worth, and they have to win this game to have any chance to get into the BCS. Lose this one, and it’s off to the Cotton Bowl at best. Win it, get some help, and a trip to the Fiesta Bowl is in the cards. Oklahoma is giving 6.5 to TCU, but the Horned Frogs have their sights set on a Senior Day victory in what has been an emotional first season in the Big XII full of ups and downs.

But of course, there are some big time conference title games to talk about as well. We’ll start in the ACC, where the Florida State Seminoles and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are going to do battle in Charlotte. This date has been set for two weeks, but Florida State still has to have its work cut out for it after losing last week to the Florida Gators. The Noles are giving two touchdowns to the Jackets in spite of the fact that Head Coach Paul Johnson is one of the few coaches to have massive degrees of success against the garnet and gold in the ACC.

The Wisconsin Badgers are in a familiar spot in the Big Ten Championship Game, and they’re going to be trying to get back to an even more familiar situation with a third straight trip to the Rose Bowl if they can win this game. However, they’re in a very unfamiliar situation of being an underdog in the biggest game of the year in the Big Ten. The Nebraska Cornhuskers are trying to lock down their first ever Big Ten title, and if they can do that, they’ll be going to the Rose Bowl instead. Wisky is 2-0 ATS in this series, but it is going to have to figure out how to avenge the loss earlier this season in Lincoln to cover this one, as the Badgers are only +2.5.

Two smaller conference titles will be handed out on Saturday as well. In the Sun Belt, the Arkansas State Red Wolves are favored by 10 in what amounts to be the conference title game against the Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders. Over in Conference USA, the UCF Knights and Tulsa Golden Hurricane meet for the second time in five years in the C-USA Championship Game. In this battle to go to the Liberty Bowl, the game is poised well at a pick ’em in spite of the fact that the Knights lost to Tulsa here at Skelley Field just two weeks ago.

And then there’s the tiny little matter of the SEC Championship Game dab smack in the middle of the day. The Alabama Crimson Tide and the Georgia Bulldogs withstood the toughest and deepest conference in America, and now, they are just one win over the other away from playing for the BCS National Championship. Either way, the SEC team will be favored over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in another month and a half in Miami, but this is clearly as big of a game as there has been in years in this conference. Georgia is considered the heavy 7.5-point underdog in this one, but this is as close of a point spread as the Crimson Tide have faced (and will face) this year. The ‘total’ in this game is lined at 50.5, a very average number all things considered. Remember that QB Aaron Murray will probably make himself a Heisman Trophy finalist by winning this game, while the Tide have scored at least 33 against most of their foes this year. Remember though, that both of these defenses are top notch. It’s been over 128 minutes since Alabama has allowed a single point and over a month and a half since UGA has allowed more than 14 in a game.

We know what we’re thankful for on this Thanksgiving week, and that’s a whole heck of a lot of football betting action! Here at Bankroll Sports, we are analyzing the Week 12 NFL odds and making our NFL Week 12 picks for the best games on the docket for the week ahead.

Of course, we have to start on Thanksgiving Day, where there are a lot of road teams that are showing some tremendous promise. In fact, in a somewhat rare twist, all six of the teams that are going to be playing on Turkey Day this year at least have a puncher’s chance at making the playoffs.

First timers of Thanksgiving Day football, the Houston Texans are going to be taking on the Detroit Lions at Ford Field. These are two teams that are headed in opposite directions right now, as the Texans are as hot as could be, while the Lions have dropped two in a row and might be in some massive trouble when push comes to shove. This is probably a must win for Detroit, especially with the NFL schedule that lies ahead, but matters don’t really look all that good for it, knowing that it is a three-point home dog to a superior Houston outfit.

The Cowboys are the other regulars on Thanksgiving Day, but the difference between them and the Lions is that they generally win. Detroit generally loses. The Cowboys are the only of the three home teams that are favored on Thanksgiving Day, as they are giving 3.5 to the Washington Redskins. The winner of this one is going to be in second place in the NFC East, while the loser will drop to third. Both teams are still chasing the Giants though, and both know that this is a great chance this week to try to cut the deficit in the division.

The last game of the night features the New England Patriots and the New York Jets. This clash ended with a New England victory in overtime the first time out this year, and both are gearing up for another close one. The Pats opened this one up at -6.5 before the news that TE Rob Gronkowski might miss the rest of the regular season with a broken forearm. Odds have it, the adjustment will be minor, but definitely will be at least in the backs of the minds of NFL bettors before they place their football bets in this one.

Sunday’s slate of action still has a lot of question marks at the moment. The Chicago Bears and Pittsburgh Steelers still don’t know what the heck is going on with QB Jay Cutler and QB Ben Roethlisberger respectively, though we have a hunch that both will sit. The Bears take on the Minnesota Vikings in a crucial game that will likely help decide whether either of these teams are going to be able to hang around for the rest of the year. Pittsburgh faces the Cleveland Browns in a sandwich game between the loss to the Ravens and the road game in Baltimore in lucky Week 13.

The showcase game of the weekend will be one of the late afternoon games. The San Francisco 49ers — most likely with QB Alex Smith — are going to have to go on the road to the Bayou to take on the New Orleans Saints, who are quietly back to .500 and quietly just a game out of the playoffs after a disastrous 0-4 start to the season. Interim Head Coach Joe Vitt knows that this is probably the biggest coaching game of his career, and he very well could be auditioning for another big time job here in the spotlight of Sunday night. The game has opened at a pick ’em, and it should be quite a great battle between arguably the best offense and arguably the best defense in the conference.

Not to be outdone is Sunday Night Football between the New York Giants and the Green Bay Packers. The G-Men are in control of the NFC East, but regardless of what happens on Thursday in Big D, the gap in the division will be a heck of a lot tighter if this one is lost. QB Eli Manning has played terrible football of late, while QB Aaron Rodgers continues to impress and might be the best quarterback that football has to offer. This is a rematch of the NFC Divisional playoff game from last year, one in which the G-Men came to Lambeau Field and beat the snot out of the Packers. Especially off of their bye week, this is why New York is laying 2.5 to Green Bay.

Unfortunately, the week ends with a dud of a game on Monday Night Football, as the Philadelphia Eagles host the Carolina Panthers. Both Head Coach Andy Reid and Head Coach Ron Rivera know that they are on some pretty hot seats right now, and the loser of this one is only going to be in worse shape. QB Nick Foles is almost certainly going to have to start once again in place of the injured QB Michael Vick, but there is still a supreme confidence that Philly, even after that dismal showing last week in our nation’s capitol, will be able to come up with a win. Philly is -2.5 against the Panthers.

The theme of the week is close NFL point spreads. There are only three games all week long that showcase games that are featuring teams that are greater than -3.5. The Cincinnati Bengals are getting the nod by 7.5 over the Oakland Raiders in their quest for the postseason, while the team at the head of the class in the AFC West, the Denver Broncos, are the biggest favorites of the week at -10 on the road against the hapless Kansas City Chiefs.

Aside from that though, everything is expected to be close. Potential AFC playoff teams are seemingly all going on the road this weekend. We’ve already discussed New England and Houston, but they clearly aren’t the only team that might have some problems on enemy soil. The Baltimore Ravens visit the San Diego Chargers and are laying 2.5 points, while the Steelers should be short favorites against the Browns as discussed earlier. Meanwhile, that could open the door for the Indianapolis Colts to get back in control in the AFC Wild Card race, as it hosts the Buffalo Bills. If the Bills are going to get back into the chase though, this is a game that has to be won. The oddsmakers are insinuating that this could be close though, knowing that the visitors are only getting a field goal after watching Indy get blown away by the Patriots last weekend.

The other major showcase game in the NFC this weekend sees the Tampa Bay Buccaneers going against the Atlanta Falcons. This is a tremendous opportunity for Tampa Bay to assert itself as a legitimate player in the role for the NFC title this year. The team is lined at a pick ’em to open up the week at home against arguably one of the best few teams in the league. The Falcons have been undervalued all year long though, and all they keep doing is winning. Still, they’re 9-1, and many have to think that they are going to get beaten in this one by a truly surging team.

The highest ‘total’ of the weekend thus far on the board is the 52.5 of the Bills and the Colts. In all likelihood, that will hold, and it might be the only ‘total’ that settles in the 50s this week. However, the Jets and Patriots started off the week at 50 as well. There are two games in the 30s as well, neither of which we have discussed quite yet. The Miami Dolphins and the Seattle Seahawks are expected to reach just 37.5 points, while the Hawks are laying a point and a half on the road. The Arizona Cardinals, giving two to the St. Louis Rams in the desert, also only figure to play in a game that features just 37.5 points.

Week 13 of the 2012 college football campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2012 Week 13 NCAA football lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 13 college football lines. Be sure to check out the free NCAA football picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend!

It’s rivalry week in college football, and the truth of the matter is that the standings and the NCAA football odds tend to really not matter all that much when push comes to shove in these games. For as many surprises as there have been this year, about the only thing that would be shocking on the week of Thanksgiving would be if there were no surprises by the time Saturday afternoon was said and done with.

We’ll start with the midweek games, as there are clashes on both Tuesday and Thursday this week. The Toledo Rockets are expected to finish up a great season at home at the Glass Bowl, and they are going to be laying 18.5 against the Akron Zips in the first game of the week. On Thursday meanwhile, the Texas Longhorns and TCU Horned Frogs are going to be doing battle against one another in a Lone Star State rivalry game. The Horns, who might control their own destiny to go to the BCS, are -8 at home against the Horned Frogs, who are hoping to pull off a big upset to get back up the Big XII bowl ladder as their regular season winds down.

However, more important are all of the massive rivalry games on Saturday that are worth noting. The biggest and most important of the bunch pits the USC Trojans against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. This is the last game of the year for both of these teams. USC is going to try to stop its big time losing streak, and if it does, it will have knocked the Golden Domers out of the title game. If not, the next plane tickets that Notre Dame can book are to Miami for the National Championship Game. One would figure that the Irish will be favored in this game, knowing that QB Matt Barkley has already been confirmed as out of the lineup for this one. For now though, the game remains as one of the two massive rivalry games that are still off the board, joining the very important duel in Tallahassee between the Florida State Seminoles and the Florida Gators.

Most of the other big time games are listed on the NCAA football odds this week, and some are a heck of a lot closer than others.

We’ll start with the games that are expected to be blowouts. The Alabama Crimson Tide are very lucky to now be two wins away from the National Championship Game for the second straight year. They have the Auburn Tigers this week in Tuscaloosa, and you can bet that there will be vengeance on the minds of the Tide. The last time Auburn was here at Bryant Denny Stadium, the team stormed back from down 21-0 to shock Alabama 28-21 in a game that not only took Alabama out of the title game, but it put the Tigers in it as well. This year? If Alabama jumps out to a 21-0 lead, expect the next 28 to go to the Tide as well. They’re favored by 31, making them one of the biggest favorites on the board of the entire weekend.

The team that Alabama is going to play in the SEC Championship Game is the Georgia Bulldogs, though the Dawgs have to be quite careful not to look past their rivals this week, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. Georgia losing would be about the only road to the National Championship for any other teams aside from SEC schools and Notre Dame in all likelihood, so there are going to be a lot of teams that are hoping the triple option gives the Bulldogs fits. G-Tech is going to be scoreboard watching to determine whether it will be in the ACC Championship Game or not, but it is going to want to win this one to make sure that it doesn’t have to file an appeal to get into a bowl game this year. (Note: The appeal would almost certainly be won even if the Yellow Jackets finished 6-7 after losing to Florida State in the ACC Championship Game) The Bulldogs are laying just 13, which feels like a number that is very, very low considering how far apart these two teams are in reality.

There are other college football rivalry games that aren’t expected to be all that close this year either. The Washington Huskies are favored by 11 in the Apple Cup against the Washington State Cougars, while the LSU Tigers are giving 12.5 to the Arkansas Razorbacks. We’ve seen odd results in both of these games over the course of the last several years though, and this year might not be all that much of an exception. The Virginia Tech Hokies is favored by 10.5 in a game against hated Virginia Cavaliers, and the Hokies have to have that one just to qualify for a bowl game this year.

And then there are some rivalry games that are expected to be a heck of a lot closer than this. The Oregon Ducks are going to have to go to Reser Stadium in one of the biggest versions of the Civil War in quite some time. The Ducks will be knocked clear out of the title picture if the Oregon State Beavers can pick up a ‘W’ as 10.5 point underdogs on Saturday. The Oklahoma Sooners, another team hoping to get into the BCS this year, are going to take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys in Bedlam as 8.5 point favorites. The annual game between the Michigan Wolverines and the Ohio State Buckeyes is always a tight one as well, and this year, the host Bucks are five point favorites to close out the year unbeaten with a chance to be the only spotless team in America when push comes to shove. The Arizona Wildcats and Arizona State Sun Devils could both be fighting to stay in the Pac-12 bowl ladder and to avoid having to play an East Coast bowl game, and in this one, Arizona is laying 2.5. Mississippi State is getting a point against the Ole Miss Rebels in the Egg Bowl this year in a game that the Rebs have to win if they are going to qualify for a bowl game.

Maybe the biggest of the rivalry games is in the great state of South Carolina. The Clemson Tigers are going to take on the South Carolina Gamecocks. Both of these teams are fringe National Championship contenders if all hell breaks loose on Saturday, and this is a huge game for bragging rights and computer votes in both the SEC and the ACC. Clemson is trying to wrap up an 11-1 season and probably a spot in a BCS bowl game, while South Carolina needs a win and a lot of help to potentially be the second team out of the SEC into the BCS. This is a crucial game for both teams, especially with the recruiting trail just about set to heat up as well. The hosts are laying four in Death Valley for this clash.

Not everything is a traditional rivalry game this week, though. The Miami Hurricanes will win the ACC Coastal Division if they can beat the Duke Blue Devils as 5.5 point favorites on Saturday in one of the more important clashes of the day. That game pales in comparison though, to the duel at the Rose Bowl, where the UCLA Bruins and the Stanford Cardinal are going to do battle. The Cardinal are the road team in this one, but if they win this game, these same two teams will meet next week in Palo Alto with a spot in the Rose Bowl on the line. Should Stanford lose, Oregon will be in the Pac-12 title game and host the affair if it beats Oregon State. If Stanford loses and Oregon loses, Oregon State will go instead. To make it all work for the Cardinal, they’re going to have to beat a 1.5 point spread which sees them favored at the outset of the weekend.

Other games of note… The Baylor Bears are -2 in a game they probably have to win to get to a bowl game against the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The Michigan State Spartans have one last chance as 7.5 point favorites to get into a bowl game on the road at the Minnesota Golden Gophers. Meanwhile, in a similar game, the Purdue Boilermakers are -5.5 against the Indiana Hoosiers. A victory will send the Boilers to a bowl game this year. In the Big East, the Pitt Panthers, playing a must win game to keep their bowl hopes alive, take on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights and are -2 in the game, while the Louisville Cardinals are -12.5 against the Connecticut Huskies. Louisville might need that game to make next week’s game against Rutgers the de facto Big East Championship Game, while UConn has to win these last two games of the year to make it to a bowl. The West Virginia Mountaineers are -1.5 at the Iowa State Cyclones in a game that WVU needs to qualify for a bowl at last after starting 5-0.

The biggest favorites of the weekend are the Utah State Aggies, who are -39 against the lowly Idaho Vandals. There are a total of eight games this week that feature games with point spreads of at least 20, but just two, Utah State and Alabama, are favored by at least 30.

Week 11 of the 2012 NFL schedule is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2012 Week 11 NFL football lines and (at the very bottom) spreads along with a breakdown of the current Week 11 NFL odds. Be sure to check out the free NFL picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this week by visiting the Free Sports Picks page on Sunday. You can also Purchase Expert Sports Picks from the expert sports handicappers.

Quarterback injuries are really the problem this week across the NFL, as there are a number of starters that have already either been ruled out or could be on the shelf this week that have kept the NFL Week 11 odds off the board as of Wednesday morning. The Monday Night Football affair between the Chicago Bears and the San Francisco 49ers is one of the biggest games of the week, but these two teams are both dealing with massive quarterback problems. Both QB Alex Smith and QB Jay Cutler suffered concussions last week, and it is unknown whether either one is going to be able to get into the saddle this week to face the other’s ferocious defense. It’s a shame as well, as this is a battle between two of the best teams in the NFC, and the winner might have the inside track towards a first round bye in the playoffs. For now though, the game is off the board and won’t likely have a line debut for at least another couple of days until matters are more clear for both sides.

Other quarterbacks aren’t even lucky enough to have the questionable tag put over their heads. QB Michael Vick knows that he is out for at least this week, and perhaps for the rest of the season as well. QB Nick Foles is going to make his first career start for the Philadelphia Eagles against the Washington Redskins, and that should make for an interesting game between a pair of rookies trying to make their mark. QB Robert Griffin III knows that this is a chance to get his team back into it. The winning team will be just two games back of the idle New York Giants in the NFC East, while the loser’s season is certainly over with. The Skins are laying 3.5 at home, but they still only have one win dating back to Week 2 of last year here in Landover.

The other quarterback that is out for this week is QB Ben Roethlisberger, who has a shoulder issue. QB Byron Leftwich has already been announced as the starter for this week’s game for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the timing couldn’t possibly be any worse for this problem. Leftwich is going to be taking on the hated Baltimore Ravens at home, a game that absolutely has to be won, one would figure, if the black and gold are going to have a shot at winning the AFC North this year. Baltimore has to be licking its chops for sure, but this game isn’t just going to be a walk in the park regardless. When this line opened on Sunday, the Steelers were -3.5. Without Roethlisberger though, the oddsmakers have shifted the NFL point spreads by a whopping 6.5 points, taking the Ravens up to -3. This is the Sunday Night Football clash as well, so the national spotlight will be on both of these teams.

The other primetime game that we have yet to discuss is the Buffalo Bills against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday. These two teams are both hoping to stick around in the AFC East chase this year, but both know that their playoff hopes are fleeing quickly. One will keep hope alive, while the other will be in a lot of trouble and inevitably on the wrong side of the playoff window for the rest of the year. The Bills are laying 1.5-points in a series in which the home teams have thoroughly dominated through the years.

It’s not like every quarterback is going to be out of the fold on Sunday, though. Two of the best are going to be meet in Motown on Sunday, where the Detroit Lions are going to be hosting the Green Bay Packers. QB Matthew Stafford and QB Aaron Rodgers are two of the best in the biz, and they are both going to be perennial 5,000-yard contenders if they can both stay healthy. Green Bay is really rolling, while the Lions are falling fast out of the NFC playoff picture. The Pack are favored by a field goal, but this is a dangerous game for sure for both sides.

QB Tom Brady has battled it out for years and years with QB Peyton Manning, and that’s what we have all become accustomed to seeing when the Indianapolis Colts and the New England Patriots hook up. Brady is still here, but Manning is gone, and another generation of this rivalry has been spawned. This is the first time that QB Andrew Luck will get a shot at a really, really big fish in the AFC, and if he and his team are going to make the playoffs and be able to compete if they get there, this is a game in which the team should at least stay remotely competitive. The Pats are -9 this week at Gillette Stadium, but it is clear that Indy knows that it has to have this game to stay in the AFC South race.

As far as Manning is concerned, he is going to be back at home this week with his Denver Broncos against the San Diego Chargers. The Bolts were up 24-0 when these two teams met a month ago at Qualcomm Stadium, but they totally screwed the pooch and ended up losing 35-24 behind a great second half rally by Manning and his teammates. This game will probably be the ultimate decider as to which team is going to win the AFC West, especially if it is Denver that wins the game. The Chargers have lost four out of five, and they have no respect whatsoever from the oddsmakers, who have them at +7.5 on Sunday in this AFC West rivalry game.

Many of the other games on the slate are pitting teams against each other that are below .500. The New York Jets have never won a game at the Edward Jones Dome before, and they are hoping that that changes when they take on the St. Louis Rams, though the hosts are laying a field goal in this one. The New Orleans Saints are charging, and they can get back to .500 this week, as they are giving 4.5 on the road to the Oakland Raiders. Meanwhile, the Kansas City Chiefs, who now have officially led a game this year, are +3 at home against the Cincinnati Bengals, who only just snapped their losing streak last week at home against the aforementioned Giants. The Dallas Cowboys are running out of time to save their season, but they can take a step closer if they can beat the Cleveland Browns as 7.5 point home favorites this weekend. In the NFC South, the Carolina Panthers are +1.5 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are trying to keep their name in the running for the playoffs in the NFC.

The only other two games that we have yet to discuss are the two games this week with the biggest sets of NFL odds. The Atlanta Falcons were just dealt their first loss of the season at the hands of the Saints, but they get to come back home this week to take on the Arizona Cardinals, fresh off of their bye. The Cards already have one win this year as double digit road underdogs against the Patriots, but this is going to be a tough task for sure. They’re not quite double digit pups in this one, but at +9.5, that’s essentially close enough.

Finally in the Lone Star State, the Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars will meet for the second time this year. This is a series that has been dominated by Houston over the years, and this is going to be no exception whatsoever in all likelihood. The Texans, fresh off of that huge win on Sunday Night Football in Chicago, are -15.5 and the biggest favorites of the entire campaign.

In regards to ‘totals’, there are three this week in the 50s. The Saints and Raiders have the highest number of the week to shoot at, at 54.5, while the Colts and Patriots aren’t far behind at 53.5. The Packers and Lions feature an over/under of 51.5. Just one ‘total’ is in the 30s, as the Jets and Rams aren’t expected to get into the 40s with a number set at 38.5.

Week 12 of the 2012 college football campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2012 Week 12 NCAA football lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 12 college football lines. Be sure to check out the free NCAA football picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend!

It’s going to be quite the interesting weekend of college football betting action this week, and there are a number of tremendously important games on the slate, including some awesome rivalry showdowns.

The biggest rivalry on the Week 12 schedule pits the USC Trojans against the UCLA Bruins. The winner of this game will almost certainly go on to win the Pac-12 South Division to play the Oregon Ducks at Autzen Stadium for the right to go to the Rose Bowl. Both teams still have those Rose Bowl dreams even if that game is lost though, as the second team in the Pac-12 might be heading to Pasadena anyway, knowing that the Ducks at that point would likely be going to the BCS National Championship Game. UCLA has its best shot in years to take down the Men of Troy, and if it were to be the case, it would be a colossal shift in the culture in the city of Los Angeles and in college football on the West Coast as we know it. The Bruins are getting just 3.5 points, easily the fewest that they have gotten in years in this rivalry.

Speaking of those Ducks though, they have a big one in front of them on the weekend as well, as they are taking on the Stanford Cardinal. Last year, the Quack Attack was able to go on the road and derail the National Championship hopes for QB Andrew Luck and the Cardinal, and they’re going to hope to basically knock the Cardinal out of the Rose Bowl this year. The loser of this one is going to see some big time dreams demolished. We’ve already seen Stanford go on the road this year to South Bend, and the team really had the Fighting Irish dead to rights. Intimidation won’t be a factor in spite of the fact that the Cardinal are getting a 20.5-point head start on the college football betting odds.

Further down the rotation schedule, the Kansas State Wildcats, freshly armed with their brand spanking new No. 1 ranking in the country, will try their hand at the Baylor Bears on the road. The trip to Waco won’t be easy, as the Bears need two wins in their final three games just to get a bowl game, and they have been stingy against virtually everyone they have faced this year. This 11th game is the one where the Oklahoma State Cowboys tripped last year, and the hope is that this isn’t going to be the same case here for the Wildcats, who really seem destined to be playing for all of the marbles in January. Still, the oddsmakers aren’t showing supreme confidence here in the Cats, as they are favored by just a dozen in a very loseable clash.

The other of the undefeated teams, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, shouldn’t have all that tough of a time with the Wake Forest Demon Deacons in one of their easier games of the year. The Deacs need to find another win somewhere to make it to a bowl game, but time is running out for that to happen. They’re not likely to win this one though, as they are +23.5 on Saturday afternoon in the home finale for the Golden Domers.

We really aren’t expecting all that much of a shake up in the BCS rankings this week, knowing that most of the other teams in the Top 15 in the land are playing a bunch of nobodies. Some of the biggest favorites of the weekend are all in the SEC due to the fact that they are largely all playing FCS foes. The No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide are -50.5 against Western Carolina, the No. 5 Georgia Bulldogs are -36.5 against Georgia Southern, and the No. 6 Florida Gators are -33.5 against Jacksonville State. South Carolina is also favored by 35 over Wofford. In fact, the only team ranked from No. 4 down to No. 10 that isn’t favored by at least 31 points this weekend is the LSU Tigers, who are laying 18.5 against the Ole Miss Rebels.

There are though, some crucial clashes in conferences. The Florida State Seminoles will win the ACC Atlantic Division if they can beat the Maryland Terrapins as 31-point favorites, while the Clemson Tigers will win it if Florida State loses and they can cover the NC State Wolfpack at -17.

Home field advantage in the Conference USA Championship Game will be decided when the Tulsa Golden Hurricane host the UCF Knights in the first of what will be two meetings of these teams this year in all likelihood. Tulsa is laying a field goal in that game. Meanwhile in the WAC, the Utah State Aggies are actually favored over the 20th ranked Louisiana Tech Bulldogs by a field goal even though that game is being played in Ruston. If the Aggies win that game, the last ever WAC title will go to them. La Tech though, still has its sights set on the BCS if it can win out and get some massive amounts of help.

The biggest favorite this week on the college football point spreads is Florida State at -31 in games between two FBS foes, while Alabama is the heaviest favorite overall at -50.5. The highest ‘total’ of the weekend is the the 75.5 in the game between the Houston Cougars and Marshall Thundering Herd. Honorable mention goes to the 74s that are on the board in the two big Big XII games of the day, those between the Oklahoma Sooners and the West Virginia Mountaineers, as well as the aforementioned Kansas State/Baylor game. The lowest ‘total’ is set at 43 for the Fighting Irish’s clash against Wake Forest.

Massive NFL point spreads are the theme of the Week 10 NFL betting lines, as there are a number of games that are expected to be blowouts. After one of the most public weeks in the history of NFL betting action though, we know that there are probably some NFL upsets that are going to be in the cards this coming week.

The team that opens up the weekend as the biggest favorite is the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners are coming off of their bye week, and they are taking on the easiest foe in their division, the St. Louis Rams. Head Coach Jeff Fisher and the gang aren’t going to go down easily, even if this game is played on the road and in front of one of the best crowds in the league. Still, getting 11.5 points is a ton to start with, and we have seen St. Louis stick around with some big time spreads on its side this year. The 49ers are most certainly on notice that this is going to be a tough game.

The other double digit favorites this week are the New England Patriots. The Pats have just rolled right through some foes this year, but the last we saw of them, they needed overtime to take down the Jets right here at Gillette Stadium in a similar game. The Brady Bunch is coming off of its bye week, and it gets a Buffalo Bills team that just isn’t all that great. The Bills were blasted by a dozen last week by the Texans on the road, and this is likely going to be the fourth massive beating that they have taken on the road this year.

One of the more intriguing early games on Sunday pits the Denver Broncos against the Carolina Panthers. Carolina is probably out of the playoff picture at this point in spite of last week’s win over the Redskins, but the interesting part of this is that Head Coach John Fox is returning to his old stomping grounds with his new and improved team. The Broncos are clearly one of the best teams in the AFC this year, but this is a long road trip against a team that is hungry and talented in spite of its iffy 2-6 record. Carolina is getting four points at home, and we can already tell that this is going to be the exact same situation that the Broncos were in last week when they beat the Cincinnati Bengals. These same Bengals are getting four for the second straight week at home against the New York Giants as well.

This is the week that the rubber might meet the road for a number of potential playoff teams in the AFC. The Miami Dolphins dipped to .500 last week, and they badly need to beat the Tennessee Titans at home as six-point favorites to keep their season alive. The Baltimore Ravens are also favored by 7.5 at M&T Bank Stadium against the Oakland Raiders, one of the hungriest teams in the league.

Thanks to Monday Night Football, this week still has two very important games that are listed as off the board. The New Orleans Saints are going to take on the Atlanta Falcons, and the truth of the matter is that QB Drew Brees and the gang very well could ultimately be favored over the 8-0 Falcons, who are still clearly getting no respect in spite of the fact that they very well could be halfway to a perfect season. The other game is going to see the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles go at each other. Both teams are still in the race in the NFC East, but neither has to feel comfortable right now. Both are on the outside of the playoffs looking in, and that makes this one all the more important. We expect to see the Eagles as short favorites in this game, though Dallas has been getting a lot of respect on the NFL odds of late.

And then there are the primetime games though, which are all going to be very important games. We’ll start on Thursday, when the Indianapolis Colts are three-point road favorites on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jags are one of the worst teams in the league, and they are still going to be playing without RB Maurice Jones-Drew. However, Indy is the team of the hour, clearly, knowing that it has a chance to get to 6-3 this year and firmly in control of its own destiny for a spot in the playoffs this year.

Football Night in America this week might be a Super Bowl 47 preview. The Chicago Bears and Houston Texans know that this game isn’t the end of the world at the moment, as both teams are clearly on their way to the playoffs, likely as division champs. The winner is going to feel a heck of a lot better than the loser though, knowing that Colts in the AFC South and the Packers and Vikings in the NFC North aren’t all that far off the heels of the two respective division leaders. This is expected to be one of the best games of the weekend, knowing that both of these teams are clearly in the Top 5 teams in all of football. The Bears are going to be laying 1.5 at the outset of the week at home, but this one clearly could go either way on the NFL point spreads.

Finally, Monday Night Football this week, could be a disaster for the Kansas City Chiefs and Head Coach Romeo Crennel. Poor Crennel hasn’t even been the coach for a full year of this team, but in the end, he is expected to get dismissed sooner than later. His team has been brutalized in virtually every spot this year, and the Chiefs haven’t even led for a single second in a game this year. Odds have it, this won’t be the week that this changes either, as the Pittsburgh Steelers are favored by 11.5 points against the Chiefs at Heinz Field.

‘Totals’ this week are going to be spread all over the place. As expected, the highest ‘total’ of the weekend to this point pits the Patriots against the Bills. We have seen New England’s offense score oodles of points against virtually anyone in the league, and we have seen the Bills give up at least 45 three times this year. That’s why this is featuring an over/under of 51. We do expect to see the Atlanta/New Orleans game featuring a ‘total’ in the 50s as well, quite possibly higher than this Buffalo/New England game as well.

The low end ‘totals’ of the weekend are both in the 30s, and that is relatively rare, knowing that the mass majority of games are in the 40s this year. The New York Jets and Seattle Seahawks are seeing their ‘total’ sitting at 38.5, while the same number is hanging on the board right now for the Rams and 49ers.
