The next thread should be posted on the night before the BCS Championship. That one will have my one with crappy photoshops and a story.

NCAA Game Spreads

Now time for the odds for this weeks games. If you live in someplace in which Jesus told your president it's ok to gamble, then I would recommend taking a look at:

Sportbetting.com
Bet On Sports

Personally I don't like gambling since the government says it's bad, and if the government says it's bad then it must be. Look at all the other wonderful decisions they make. But if I did think about going against the wishes of G Dub and the black baby Jesus I would use sportsbetting.com. That is if I lived in a place that allowed gambling.

Here are the current lines as of Tuesday:

code:

Date  		Team 		Money 		Line 		Total
01/01/07  	Michigan 	-135 		-2 (-120) 	Over  47.5 			
17:05 ET  	USC 		+115 		+2 (Even) 	Under 47.5 	

01/01/07  	BoiseSt 	+220 		+7 		Over  50 	
20:05 ET 	Oklahoma 	-260 		-7 		Under 50 	

01/02/07 	WakeForest 	+320 		+10.5 		Over  52.5 	
20:05 ET 	Louisville 	-400 		-10.5 		Under 52.5 	

01/03/07 	NotreDame 	+300 		+9.5 (-105) 	Over  56 	
20:05 ET 	LSU 		-360 		-9.5 (-115) 	Under 56 	

01/06/07	WMichigan 	+250 		+7.5 		Over  41.5 	
12:05 ET  	CincinnatiU 	-300 		-7.5 		Under 41.5 	

01/07/07  	Ohio 		+210 		+6 		Over  41.5 	
20:05 ET  	SMississippi 	-250 		-6 		Under 41.5

My picks (The Pac-10 is my strong conference):
1) I'll pick these later on

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rules of the thread
1) This one is the most important oneLet us know if you're picking for the spread or if you're picking the winner.
2) Oregon State University is the only team to be refered to as OSU, the rest are just cheap

imposters.
3) Joe Paterno never forget 12/29/1999
4) http://fire
5) Nevada Wolfpak - 2006 BCS champions
6) OU got screwed. Let's not mention it again
7) El-Penis, why have you forsaken us?
8) Don't underestimate the power of Chuck Amato's chest hair
9) HELL 2 DA NAW
10) 11/18/2006 - Rutgers, Nevar Forget!

So let's hear everyone else's predictions. Let us know what conference you know the best when you predict and post your record for this season if you get a chance. If you think I'm wrong or anyone else is wrong on a prediction then let us know and try to convince us otherwise. Hell you don't even have to make a prediction feel free to use this thread for general college football talk. If you have any questions on what the odds mean or how they work feel free to ask either in the thread or send a PM.

2006 Record: 16-9 (64%)
2005 Reloaded-Record (Week 10): 5-2 (72%)
2005 Record (Up to Week 9): 12-13 (48%) (3-2 last week)
2004 Record: 44-28 (61%)* (Note I can't find last years bowl game thread)
2003 Record: 46-27 (63%)
2002 Years Record: 29-18 (64%)

General Disclaimer: The purpose of this thread is strictly for recreation, and it does not condone gambling except for places in which it's legal to do so. Which really isn't any place on earth since the baby Jesus told Dub that gambling is bad.

Right?

Penn State got a raw deal this year, losing to 3 teams who have lost a combined 2 games.

Well to be fair, that game turned from big game to Benny Hill-esque farce pretty quickly.

edit: Does anybody know why they have 48/80 on their helmets? I know 48 is Ford's number, but the 80 confuses me.
