Complete List of Week 16 NFL Lines Can Be Found Below

Week 16 of the 2010 NFL campaign is going to get underway this weekend and the . Below you will find the current list of 2010 Week 16 NFL lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 16 NFL odds. Be sure to check out the free NFL picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend…

The playoff races can really get sorted out once and for all in Week 16, as virtually every single spot in the postseason can be clinched this week with the right results, while other teams are just narrowly hanging on for dear life for that last slender shot at capturing the Lombardi Trophy.

The weekend is going to kick off on Thursday night, as the Pittsburgh Steelers can help make the race in the AFC North a heck of a lot less interesting if they can beat the Carolina Panthers. Carolina showed its pulse last week by beating the Arizona Cardinals at home, but this is obviously a totally different situation, especially with the men in black and gold coming off of their loss to the New York Jets in Week 15. You’ll want to make sure you keep track of our NFL picks in this one, as Pittsburgh is being asked to lay a hefty 13.5 points. A win parlayed with a Baltimore Ravens loss wins the AFC North and clinches a first round bye in the playoffs in the AFC.

The New England Patriots are just one win away from snaring the No. 1 seed in the playoffs as well. The pressure is really off of QB Tom Brady and company in this one, as there are two chances to get the job done. You can bet that the Bills, who have been playing tough ball of late, are going to want to continue their streak of games having stuck within at least three points. New England is favored by 8.5 points on the NFL betting lines, though.

One of the most interesting games of the second to last Sunday of the regular season happens at the Edward Jones Dome, where the St. Louis Rams and San Francisco 49ers meet up. The Rams probably need to win both of their final two games to get into the playoffs this season, which would complete a remarkable turnaround from a season in which they went just 1-15. St. Louis might only be 6-8 this year, but it can ensure that next week’s game becomes a de facto NFC West title game against the Seattle Seahawks by putting San Fran out of its misery once and for all. Somehow, the 49ers just continue to stick around in this division race, and two wins will most likely win the division at 7-9. In this one though, they are 2.5 point underdogs.

The Tennessee Titans and Kansas City Chiefs put their playoff hopes on the line at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday as well. The Titans need two wins paired with two losses by both the Jacksonville Jaguars and Indianapolis Colts to get into the playoffs, something that is going to be very difficult, yet at least potentially reasonable. KC wins the AFC West with a win and a loss by the San Diego Chargers in Week 16. Even though they are 6-0 at home this year, the Chiefs feel like they are getting disrespected on the opening Week 16 lines in this one, as they are favored by just five points over a team that is most likely finishing below .500.

As for the Colts as Jags, they’re both favored in their week 16 games. Jacksonville should have a significantly easier time against the Washington Redskins, where it is favored by 6.5 points, than Indy will against the Oakland Raiders, where it is a field goal choice of the oddsmakers. Indianapolis needs a combination of two wins or two Jacksonville losses to get into the playoffs by winning the AFC South.

Though the contest probably means very little, the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints will meet on Monday Night Football, the final one of the 2010 campaign. Atlanta wins the NFC South and the No. 1 seed in the playoffs with a win, but the exact same thing will be accomplished with a win next week against the Carolina Panthers at home. New Orleans can clinch a playoff berth with a win as well on Monday, though that spot might already be clinched with some help prior to this kickoff. The Falcons won the battle between these two teams at the Superdome in OT earlier this year, and they are 2.5 point favorites to pick up the season sweep on MNF.

Complete List of Week 15 NFL Lines Can Be Found Below

Week 15 of the 2010 NFL campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2010 Week 15 NFL lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 15 NFL odds. Be sure to check out the free NFL picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend…

For all of the teams that just narrowly hung on to their playoff lives in Week 14, Week 15 picks are going to feature a matter of survival once again. The biggest teams that are still trying to survive are the San Francisco 49ers and the San Diego Chargers. These two teams both kept their seasons alive last week with huge wins, and now they’ll meet at Qualcomm Stadium on Thursday Night Football in what amounts to be the biggest game of the year for both teams to date. San Diego is probably in worse shape and needs this win more, as it has a tough task to run down the Kansas City Chiefs than the Niners do in the NFC West against all of the teams there. Still, this instate rivalry is going to be very, very intense, and both of these teams are going to be going all out to stay alive for the race to the playoffs. The Chargers are eight point home favorites and are probably going to be very, very public.

The Miami Dolphins are still staying alive at this point, as they pulled off the big time upset against the New York Jets last week. They still need to win out and get a heck of a lot of help to get the job done, but we have a hard time picking against Head Coach Tony Sparano. Sparano just tends to do what he needs to do on a regular basis. Though playing at home has been very difficult at time for the Fins, they’ll have to be at their best on Sunday. The Buffalo Bills and their big time cover streak are in town, and the visitors are catching 5.5 points in Week 15.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers just barely survived against the Washington Redskins last week, and now, they are getting a little bit closer towards a playoff berth after watching the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears both lose in Week 14. This is the easiest game of the year left for Tampa Bay on Sunday, as it has the Detroit Lions. Remember that these Lions beat those aforementioned Packers last week, and they have one of the best ATS marks in the league. However, if Detroit is going to prove to be frisky for another upset this week, it is going to have to do so as a six point underdog.

The biggest game of the day in Week 15 involves the New York Jets and the Pittsburgh Steelers. There really should be no doubt that these two teams are going to the postseason, but they are going to try to get a leg up on the other one in a potential playoff fight. New York badly needs to get back in the win column in a hurry to stop the sting from two straight losses, while the Steelers are just looking to make sure that they keep the Baltimore Ravens off of their backs. At home, it should come as no surprise that the men in black and gold are favorites, but it seems like a stretch that they are favored by 6.5 on the NFL betting lines.

The other big time game goes on in Indianapolis, where the Jacksonville Jaguars are going to try to put away the AFC South for all intents and purposes. If they can beat the Indianapolis Colts, the AFC South might be clinched, and the Colts will be eliminated from postseason contention. The season is on the line for QB Peyton Manning, who really needs to get back in gear after throwing 11 INTs in his last four games. The hosts are favored by 4.5 points.

All eyes in the NFC will be on the Atlanta Falcons, who might be playing their last difficult game of the season. We already know that someone is going to have to beat them in the Georgia Dome to make it to the Super Bowl, but a win on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks could wrap up the No. 1 seed in the playoffs in the NFC. Seattle isn’t really expected to be able to put up a fight here, as it is a dog by 6.5 points.

Complete List of Week 14 NFL Lines Can Be Found Below

Week 14 of the 2010 NFL campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2010 Week 14 NFL lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 14 NFL odds. Be sure to check out the free NFL picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend…

Seasons very well could be on the line in Week 14 of the NFL schedule, as we are getting closer and closer to the end of the campaign. A number of teams are probably starting four week stretches in which they have to win out to be one of the 12 teams vying for the Lombardi Trophy in January and February.

One of those teams is clearly the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts have watched, as QB Peyton Manning has tossed an inexplicable 11 picks in his last three games combined. Manning has clearly struggled, but it’s not like the rest of the team has been innocent in this three game skid. Indy is now a game back with just four to play in the AFC South, and it is a three point favorite on Thursday Night Football against the Tennessee Titans, who might be playing for their Head Coach, Jeff Fisher’s job.

We immediately jump from the first game of the weekend to the final game of the weekend to make NFL picks on. The Baltimore Ravens certainly aren’t in a must win spot right now, as they are 8-4 and still two games up on the field for the final Wild Card spot in the AFC South. However, the Houston Texans are on life support right now at 5-7 for the fourth straight season under Head Coach Gary Kubiak. This is typically the time of year that Kubiak and company turn it on, especially last year, when the team won its final four games. This is going to be a significantly tougher task though, as the Ravens have one of hte best teams in the NFL. If Houston wins this one, it could be back within a game of perhaps its only potential playoff spot, the AFC South title. If it does so though, it is going to have to do it as a three point underdog at home.

No team needs a win on Sunday like the San Diego Chargers. The Bolts inexplicably fell to the Oakland Raiders last weekend at home as two TD favorites, and they’ll have to avoid that same sort of fate this weekend when the Kansas City Chiefs come to town. The Chiefs actually look like they can become the first team to clinch a playoff berth this year, and not the first team to choke their spot away. An upset in this one parlayed with a loss by the Oakland Raiders against the Jacksonville Jaguars eliminates the Chargers from playoff contention and moves KC within just one win or an Oakland loss of winning the division. Still, the oddsmakers remember what it was like to see San Diego roll off so many games at the end of last season (and the season before… and the season before that… oh, and the season before that as well), and they have lined it as a seven point underdog even though it is two games back in the AFC West.

The San Francisco 49ers are in the same sort of predicament. They are only at 4-8, but the co-division leading Seattle Seahawks are in town this weekend. A loss officially eliminates the Niners from the playoffs and probably immediately hands Head Coach Mike Singletary his pink slip once and for all. A win probably puts San Fran just a game back in the NFC West, as the St. Louis Rams are the biggest underdogs on the board this weekend at +9 against the New Orleans Saints. As for the 49ers? They are favored by 4.5 at home against a Seattle team that finally woke up in the second half last week against the Carolina Panthers.

As for those Panthers, they have to contend with one of the best teams in the NFL this week, as the Atlanta Falcons are paying a visit to Tobacco Road. Carolina looks like an absolutely helpless team right now, and there might not be any way out of this predicament of having the No. 1 overall pick in next year’s NBA Draft. The Falcons are still flying high though, and this week doesn’t seem to be anything more than a bump on the schedule. They are 7.5 point favorites and are expected to roll to within just two more wins of the top seed in the NFC side of the playoffs.

Complete List of Week 13 NFL Lines Can Be Found Below

Week 13 of the 2010 NFL campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2010 Week 13 NFL lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 13 NFL odds. Be sure to check out the free NFL picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend…

The postseason picture is going to probably be sorted out quite a bit over the course of Week 13, as there are a number of playoff contenders playing potential pretenders that are looking to just keep their heads above water.

Nowhere else is that demonstrated more than on the first NFL betting battle of the week, a clash between the 7-4 Philadelphia Eagles and the 5-6 Houston Texans. The visitors just keep finding ways to lose games this year, as they are still a game below .500 on the year and are clinging to life support. The Eagles are tied for first place in the NFC East, but they know if they lose this one, that they are in a heck of a lot of trouble, as the rest of the NFC isn’t going to let up at this point. The hosts are favored by 8.5 points, but this could be a game that is a lot more hotly contested than this point spread suggests.

Another game of potential pretender versus certain contender involves two more NFC East teams. The Washington Redskins have no choice but to beat the New York Giants on Sunday afternoon, as they could get back to within a game of the division lead with a ‘W’. A loss though, would be debilitating, as there isn’t a team in the NFC that is coming back from a 5-7 record, save perhaps in the NFC West, to make the playoffs. Washington is facing a hefty 7.5 point spread on Sunday afternoon.

The NFC South could be made into a real mess this weekend if the Tampa Bay Buccaneers pull off the modest upset against the Atlanta Falcons. The hosts are coming off of a rough game against the Baltimore Ravens in which they were beaten 17-10, while the Falcons just continue to win game after game after game. Tampa Bay is two games back in the NFC South, but with one more loss, the Bucs could be in danger of falling out of the NFC playoff race all together. Atlanta is a game up on the rest of the conference right now, but with the New Orleans Saints hot on its tail, it badly needs to keep up the pace to keep some distance between itself and the rest of the conference. The Falcons are favored by a field goal.

The biggest favorites on the board are the San Diego Chargers. They are 12.5 point favorites over the Oakland Raiders even though these teams are separated by just one game in the standings. The Bolts have won five in a row and are in a position to take over first place in the AFC West if the Kansas City Chiefs trip up once more. The Raiders are in dire straits this week, as a loss will almost certainly end their campaign.

The disastrous stretch of games for the Indianapolis Colts could take a real turn for the worse if they can’t take out the Dallas Cowboys in the national game on Sunday afternoon. The ‘Boys are hot right now, though they were beaten at the gun by the New Orleans Saints last week on Thanksgiving. Indy has dropped two in a row and is still outside of the playoff picture, and a loss on Sunday would leave it at just .500 over the first three quarters of the regular season. Dallas is only a dog by 5.5 points at Lucas Oil Field.

However, the crème de la crème for Week 13 picks occur on Sunday Night and Monday Night Football. In the appetizer of the weekend, the Baltimore Ravens will play host to the Baltimore Ravens. These two teams are tied atop the AFC North right now, and the winner will be in great shape for a first round bye in the playoffs. The Ravens already beat Pittsburgh once this year, and now that these two teams are playing in M&T Bank Field, this is a golden opportunity for the hosts. Should Baltimore capture this one, it will essentially be two games up with just four to play. The Ravens are the choices of the oddsmakres by a field goal.

The New York Jets are in the same spot on Monday Night Football this week, but their task is significantly harder. The New England Patriots have their identical record at 9-2 this year, and the winning team is going to almost certainly have a first round bye in the bag should that squad hold the AFC East title for the rest of the year. Should the Jets win, New England can already pack its bags for the road against most like either the AFC South or AFC West winner in the first round of the playoffs. The Jets at least have a chance to come back from a defeat, though the Pats aren’t likely to trip if they become the dominating team in the division. New England is favored by 3.5 points.

Complete List of Week 14 College Football Lines Can Be Found Below

Week 14 of the 2010 college football campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2010 Week 14 NCAA football lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 14 college football lines. Be sure to check out the free NCAA football picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend!

This is it! After a full season long college football picks, the road to the BCS finally stops this weekend, as two teams will be vying for spots in the BCS National Championship Game, while the other 118 teams just scramble to make bowls of lesser value.

The chase is really just down to four teams, as the Oregon Ducks and Auburn Tigers are in the driver’s seat, while the two teams waiting like piranhas for them to slip are the TCU Horned Frogs and Stanford Cardinal respectively.

Oregon has the easiest route to get to BCS glory. It has already won the Pac-10 this season and has absolutely no pressure on its back to get to one of the most illustrious bowl games, as it will go to the Rose Bowl to face the Wisconsin Badgers if it loses. However, you can bet that HC Chip Kelly’s club has no interest in the consolation prize this year, especially after winning in Pasadena last season. The Oregon State Beavers have a ton of motivation this season to beat their arch rivals, not just because this is the Civil War, one of the most brutal battles in the country, but because their bowl lives depend on it. After a season in which the Beavers have already suffered losses to three of the Top 10 teams in the nation, they have to face the land’s best. It might be playing at home in front of a raucous crowd at Reser Stadium, but Oregon State is a 16.5 point underdog.

Auburn has a significantly more difficult road to get to Glendale, as it has to take on a team that nearly beat it in the regular season, the South Carolina Gamecocks. We know that QB Cam Newton probably already has the Heisman Trophy wrapped up whether he accounts for ten touchdowns or ten turnovers in this one, but he is clearly going to have to play well if he wants to bring his Tigers to the BCS Championship Game. South Carolina allowed over 330 yards on the ground to these guys when they met at Jordan Hare Stadium, but in spite of that, it still allowed less than 100 yards in total per game in rushing. The Gamecocks have never won the SEC and have never been to a BCS bowl game before. A win sends them to the Sugar Bowl and would make friends for life out of the TCU Horned Frogs. Auburn knows that it will either be going to the title game or the Orange Bowl, but just like Oregon, there is no desire to settle for second best after a season in which virtually everything went right. The oddsmakers are showing some faith in the Gamecocks after their seven point loss on the road in September, lining them at +5.

Should Auburn lose on Saturday, the Arkansas Razorbacks will be shifted out of the BCS and most likely into the Capital One Bowl. Should the Tigers win, college football expert picks are projecting the Hogs in the Sugar Bowl, where they would face either the Stanford Cardinal or the Big East champion.

BCS bids will be handed out in the ACC, Big East, and Big XII as well this weekend, and you can bet that the five clashes surrounding these illustrious bowl bids are going to be hot and heavy, as none of these teams are going to be at large entrants into the BCS.

In the ACC, the Virginia Tech Hokies and Florida State Seminoles meet in the ACC Championship Game in Charlotte. These two teams have met here once before, with Florida State already having shocked the Hokies once for the conference crown. HC Jimbo Fisher just picked up the biggest win of his young coaching career against the Florida Gators last week, and if he nails this one down on Saturday, no one will be questioning whether it was the right time for HC Bobby Bowden to leave Tallahassee or not. The Hokies haven’t lost outright and are 9-1 ATS since losing to the James Madison Dukes way back in September, and they are four point favorites on Saturday night.

In a game running concurrently in primetime, the Nebraska Cornhuskers and Oklahoma Sooners will meet for one last time as conference rivals at Dallas Cowboys Stadium, and the stakes could not be higher. It was a tumultuous season for both in the Big XII, but just as most figured at the outset of the year, the two are fighting it out for a BCS bowl bid. The winner goes to the Fiesta Bowl, most likely to face the Stanford Cardinal. Without knowing what the state of the Nebraska quarterback situation is at this point, the oddsmakers really had no choice but to line the Sooners as 4.5 point favorites.

In the Big East, the Connecticut Huskies are just 60 minutes away from their first conference crown and their first trip to the BCS. They’ll take on the South Florida Bulls, where they are slight one point underdogs. If UConn drops on Saturday, the door will swing open for the West Virginia Mountaineers to make a return trip to the BCS. There is no doubt that the ‘Neers, three TD favorites against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, would capitalize on this opportunity, but should they lose, it would all swing back to the Pittsburgh Panthers, who are two point road dogs against the Cincinnati Bears. Should all three lose, the Huskies would win the Big East and most likely head to the Orange Bowl.

Don’t forget about the MAC and Conference USA Championship Games either. In the MAC on Friday night, the Northern Illinois Huskies, a Top 25 team, take on the Miami Redhawks, where they are favored by 17.5 points. The Conference USA crown will be handed out on Saturday, where the UCF Knights are hosting the biggest game in the history of their new stadium, Bright House Network Stadium Field on Saturday afternoon. They are nine point favorites over the SMU Mustangs.

The biggest favorites of the weekend are the Boise State Broncos, who are just praying that they can make enough of a statement against the Utah State Aggies to make it to a BCS bowl game. The chances are very, very slim at best, but the men from the Smurf Turf are favored by 38 points regardless.

Week 12 of the 2010 NFL campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2010 Week 12 NFL lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 12 NFL lines. Be sure to check out the free NFL picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this weekend…

For the second straight week, there are a ton of potential playoff teams that are catching a slew of points over the course of the weekend, with most of the damage potentially coming on Sunday in Week 12.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are hitting the road at the New York Giants, and it is shocking to see the AFC South leaders underdogs by 8.5 points on the day. The Jags have been on a roll and finding ways to win games late, so we would expect nothing more than a close game, particularly considering the fact that the G-Men are going to be playing without WR Hakeem Nicks. They’re also on a two game slide after winning five in a row, and it will be very interesting to see how they react to being on the outside of the playoff picture for the first time in a number of weeks after last week’s defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles.

The other team that is really catching our attention as a hefty underdog is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The men from the Sunshine State are heading up to M&T Bank Field, where they’ll meet the Baltimore Ravens. Both of these teams are 7-3 through ten games, and both know that they are safe for the time being for a spot in the playoffs. However, what we don’t know is whether either one will be able to hold on or not. Baltimore has been dominating at times this year, but the Bucs are a big question mark. They’ve beaten every team that they were “supposed to” beat this season, but have been destroyed by some of the best teams on their slate. An upset at 7.5 point underdogs would go a long way towards validating the season that Tampa Bay has had.

If it’s the fourth Thursday in the month of November, you know that it’s Thanksgiving, and that means a ton of NFL betting action for you! Here at Bankroll Sports, we’ll make our Week 12 NFL picks for all three of the biggest games on the board on Thursday.

The most interesting duel could be the one in Dallas, where the suddenly resurgent Dallas Cowboys are going to take on the defending champs, the New Orleans Saints. If the ‘Boys can take down this game, they could reasonably be within shouting distance of the second season once again, though they are going to have a tough time going against a New Orleans squad that is still trying to hunt down the lead in the NFC South. QB Drew Brees and company watched their perfect season go up in flames in a primetime, nationally televised game at home against the Cowboys last year, and they would love nothing more than to return the favorite and kick Dallas to the curb once and for all in their biggest spectacle game of the season, the Thanksgiving Day showdown. New Orleans is favored by a field goal.

The other two games should be featuring blowouts if the oddsmakers are correct. The New England Patriots travel to the Detroit Lions, where they are laying a touchdown. In the nightcap, the New York Jets will host the first Thanksgiving Day game ever in the Meadowlands. They are 8.5 point favorites, tied for the biggest chalks on the board, at home against the slumping Cincinnati Bengals, who have dropped six in a row.

Playoff ramifications will be on the line in the Windy City and in the Peach State on Sunday afternoon. The Chicago Bears are 7-3, but no one is believing that they stand a chance against the Philadelphia Eagles at home. They’re 3.5 point pups. Meanwhile in Atlanta, a place where QB Matt Ryan has lost a total of one game that he has started in his career, the Atlanta Falcons are narrow two point favorites against the Green Bay Packers. These teams have the four best records in the league, as they are all 7-3, save the Falcons, who are 8-2, and these could all be potential playoff previews to boot.

Complete List of Week 13 College Football Lines Can Be Found Below

Week 13 of the 2010 college football campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2010 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!

Rivalries are abound over the course of this weekend, and college football betting fans should be excited for the action! This week offers a slew of fantastic games on the slate, and we have all of the action broken down for all of the most important college football picks that you need to make for the week to come.

In the Big XII, the Texas A&M Aggies and Texas Longhorns are going to try to make some headway in the conference, but they have some totally different goals. The Aggies are trying to move up in the bowl picture in the conference, and perhaps even keep their slim BCS bowl dreams alive. Texas is going to need to win this game to make a bowl game, as it knows that this is its last chance to get back to .500 on the season. The Aggies are favored by 3.5 points.

Texas isn’t the only team in bowl trouble, though. The Georgia Bulldogs are 5-6 on the season, and they are going to try to take down the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, who are 6-5. Both teams probably need this game though, as neither the SEC nor the ACC is going to be able to send all of its teams to bowl games in all likelihood. The visitors are playing without QB Josh Nesbitt, which is why the Dawgs are 12 point choices of the oddsmakers.

The Golden Boot will be handed out to the winner of the annual duel between the LSU Tigers and the Arkansas Razorbacks. The loser of this game is certain to be stuck with a second tier bowl game this year, while the winner is going to finish in no worse than a tie for second place in the SEC West and be eligible for a BCS at large bid. LSU knows it is going to the BCS and has a chance to play for a National Championship with a victory. However, with this game being played in Little Rock, QB Ryan Mallett and company are favored by 3.5 points.

In the Sunshine State, the Florida Gators and Florida State Seminoles are going to have at it on Saturday afternoon at Doak Campbell Stadium. UF knows that it is probably going to the Outback Bowl regardless of the outcome in this game, but the Noles are likely to really move up or down the ACC bowl ladder based upon the result. This is an incredibly important game for HC Jimbo Fisher, as he badly needs to beat the rival Gators, who have beaten the Noles six straight times. The Seminoles are 2.5 point favorites at home on Saturday afternoon.

FSU might be paying more attention to the duel in College Park, where the NC State Wolfpack are going to face the Maryland Terrapins. Should the Terps win this game, the Noles will be going to the ACC Championship Game to face the Virginia Tech Hokies, while a win for the Wolfpack will put them in the title game for the first time in school history. The visitors are 2.5 point favorites.

The Backyard Brawl should be a good one this year, as the West Virginia Mountaineers and Pitt Panthers are going to be fighting for the catbird’s seat in the Big East. The winner will have a shot to win the conference and crack the Top 25, while the loser is going to be in awful trouble for a quality bowl game. The hosts are favored by 2.5 points, but when the ‘total’ comes out, be careful about backing the ‘over’. There are a few high school games being played the day before and the weather might not be fantastic at Heinz Field.

The Big Ten is going to be a mess this weekend, as there are a number of opportunities for the Ohio State Buckeyes, Wisconsin Badgers, and Michigan State Spartans to make it to the Rose Bowl. Wisky is the team that probably is in the best shape, but it can’t do anything right now without the Buckeyes giving it a hand. If OSU loses to the Michigan Wolverines, the Spartans are going to be in the driver’s seat. The Badgers will win the conference though, if all three teams win. They are favored by 23 points at home against the Northwestern Wildcats. Ohio State is favored by 17 points over Big Blue, while the Spartans are slender two point choices at Happy Valley against the Penn State Nittany Lions.

The biggest favorites on the board this weekend in NCAA football betting action is the TCU Horned Frogs. They need to win this game against the New Mexico Lobos in fine fashion to have any chance of staying in front of the Boise State Broncos in the BCS rankings. The Lobos are 43.5 point pups on the afternoon, while Boise State, who is visiting the Nevada Wolf Pack, is favored by 13.5 points.

The Big XII South is down to just two teams, and Bedlam is going be a heck of a showdown this year in Stillwater. The Oklahoma Sooners have played down to the level of their competition all season long, but they are going to need this one in a big way to win the Big XII and to potentially set up a duel with the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the Big XII Championship Game. The Oklahoma State Cowboys are going to be getting in the way, though. They have had a fantastic season and might be primed for something huge. A ‘W’ as 2.5 point favorites at home will send the Pokes to the Big XII title game.

However, no weekend like this would be complete without discussing the game that people have been dying to make college football picks on all season long. The Alabama Crimson Tide, last year’s National Champions, are going to be hosting the Auburn Tigers, the No. 2 team in the country. Auburn really hasn’t done a lot on the road this year, as it has only played three games against subpar opponents. Its defense has really struggled for the majority of the year as well. However, the bottom line is that “0” sitting in the Tigers’ loss column right now, and regardless of how good the Crimson Tide really are, they have two losses and know that they need some help to go to a BCS bowl game. The oddsmakers are showing all sorts of faith in the hosts in this one, as they are 4.5 point favorites in spite of the fact that Auburn has so much more to play for in the Iron Bowl.
