There has not been a lot of movement on the BCS bowls so far this season, but that changed in week seven. With some upsets and a few close calls, the races for the top bowls in college football are getting very interesting. In the Big 12, Oklahoma is no longer the clear cut favorite to reach the Fiesta Bowl. For now, Baylor is our choice. With home games against Oklahoma, Texas Tech and Texas, the Bears schedule could not get much better. The loss by Georgia knocked them out of the BCS, with LSU taking their place in the Sugar Bowl. In the ...

Gambling sharps (the best gamblers around) are right roughly 57% of the time. That figure sounds low to most. But, in fact, it is a high enough figure to make a living off of. The key to being a sharp is not only picking more winners than losers, but also finding the best lines and odds for your bets. An extra half point here, an extra point there makes a huge difference over the course of ...

Week 7 FCS Football Game Breakdowns

The game of the week this week is probably in the CAA where Villanova heads to undefeated Towson. The undefeated Tigers are playing just their third home game of the year and you can bet Unitas Stadium will be rocking for this one. The Villanova defense has been stout after a slow start and the Towson offense is rolling behind running back Terrance West. West rushed for 238 yards and three touchdowns last ...

The battle for the second spot in the BCS National Championship game is heating up. And that is taking the huge assumption that Alabama can stay undefeated. In the ACC, Clemson and Florida State are both playing great football and the conference as a whole is much improved. The computers will like that, but it also means there are opportunities for the Tigers and Seminoles to lose. And one of them will lose when the two go at it on October 19th. The Pac-12 also has a couple teams vying for a perfect season. Oregon heads to Stanford on ...
