Cal
Lets take a look at what's interesting in the BEST CONFERENCE (all you SEC hicks can go choke on a corn cob or have sex with your sister)
Hmmmmm....
Cal +6 @ Oregon (yes, that's right +6)
USC v Wash, the over @ 57.5
UCLA +1.5 @ Oregon St. and the over at 56....
ND + whatever points they are getting ... are we at +40 yet?
They can't possibly go 0-5.
Agreed, it should be more.Quote:

If any of you are serious about losing your money, keep in mind:
Oregon leads the Pac 10 in offense.
Oregon has a strong secondary this year.
Cal's RB is playing through injury.
Cal will be playing at Autzen, one of the loudest and most hostile stadiums in college FB.
"Autzen Stadium is where great teams go to die" -- Lloyd Carr, 2003
So go ahead, bet on Cal. But don't say I didn't warn you. :nonono2:

Until the Kal Dline creates some pressure up front, their D will be vulnerable.
Oregon's D has played relatively well this season and right now their O is in a groove.
Kal needs to involve Forsett in the passing game- there's no way the Zero's LBs are going to match up with him.
When you can't make a case for the opposing team, that's when you know you made a good bet. Not sure this method works in college.
a little qoute from my boss who happens to manage the most profitable sports book outside Cearsars Palace: "fans bet the favorite and the over, don't bet like a fan."
Both teams are scoring a lot of points and w/ the exception of the Michigan game, allowing the other team to score. Oregon is giving up about 50 yds more per game rushing than Cal; Cal is allowing more passing yards.
Cal's schedule, I think, has been tougher. None of the teams Oregon has played so far have team speed anywhere near Cal. That's where the difference will be.
Bama +2.5 at a "neutral" site game in Jacksonville vs Florida St.
Auburn +20 in the swamp vs Florida
The Bama game is unique, the strong part of the Bama team is the offense but the strong part of FSU is the D. Bama is weak on D but FSU is weak on O. I say take Bama for an outright win, but then again I am a homer.
Auburn.....a 20 point dog to Florida. Instincts say to take Auburn and the points as 20 is a HUGE number for a conference game. However UF got a scare last week and Auburn is the only team to beat them last year in a somewhat contraversial manner. Auburn can't score but has an pretty good agressive D. The Gators are weak on D but their Offense is crazy good.
I still say take Auburn and the points.
Not sure about that. I mean, who has Cal played really? Tennesse? Is that what you're getting at? Tennesse is ranked lower than Michigan. Or are you trying to claim that Colo State, La Tech, and Zona are better than what Oregon has played Houston, Fresno, and Stanford? I'm not buying it. Zona and Stanford will battle it out with Wazzu for the last three places in the Pac-10. so pretty much a wash there. Houston won their conf last year and IMO are better than CSU. La Tech??? Nuff said.Quote:

+5.5 means I'm getting the points.Quote:

Cal v Oregon...told you so
UCLA v Or. State...
and, those loveable losers fronm Stanford.
Glad I didn't bite on the overs.
0-2.Quote:
