A sellout out crowd is expected at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia for the Chick-fil-A Bowl between Auburn and Clemson on Monday. Both teams come into the game with excellent defenses so it could be a low scoring game.
The San Diego Chargers will try for their 5th straight win tonight as they host the Denver Broncos. The Chargers can clinch the #3 spot in the AFC with a win tonight and a win next week against Minnesota. The #3 spot is critical since the Chargers could avoid having to play the Patriots until the AFC Championship game.
The Monday night game between the Saints and Falcons will again be overshadowed by the Michael Vick story. Vick was sentenced today to 23 months in jail for his role in a dog fighting operation. Before the season began this game seemed like a good matchup but now it is just a battle of struggling teams.
If you spent some time on sports betting like I have, you probably already know that making money on it is nowhere near as simple and easy as some online sports betting websites would have you believe.
Much like in poker, you cannot hope to eek money out of your betting, unless you understand how the system works...
The Washington Redskins will be facing a tough task on Thursday night. They have to play the Chicago Bears in a must win game just days after the funeral of Sean Taylor. Some 3,000 mourners attended Taylor's funeral, including about 300 members of the Redskins' organization. "I think the guys feel better after going to the funeral," linebacker London Fletcher said...
The New England Patriots will try and stay unbeaten as they travel to Baltimore on Monday to face the Ravens. The Patriots looked beatable last week against Philadelphia but they may not have much trouble against a Ravens team that has lost five straight....
The Miami Dolphins will try and get their first win of the season as the travel to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday Night Football. Miami is trying to avoid the dubious distinction of going 0-16 but probably won’t break the streak tonight at Pittsburgh where they are a 16 point underdog...
The WAC tile and a possible BCS bowl berth are on the line Friday night in Hawaii as the Warriors host Boise State. Hawaii is ranked 13th in the country while Boise State is ranked 17th. The Broncos have owned this series, winning the last six games against Hawaii. SBG Global reports that early college football betting has the public taking Boise State on the Road...
The Dallas Cowboys will be trying to start a season at 10-1 for the first time in their history as they host the New York Jets on Thanksgiving Day. The Cowboys have a long and great history but they have never started a season 10-1. The Cowboys will try and avoid looking past the 2-8 Jets but that may be easier considering New York upset Pittsburgh last week...
A bowl berth could be on the line Tuesday night as Ball State hosts Toledo in MAC action. The conference has three bowl bids, the Motor City Bowl, the International Bowl, and the GMAC Bowl. Central Michigan wrapped up the West Division and one of the spots but the other two berths are open. The winner of Tuesday’s game will probably need another win but the loser is probably out. Ball State would seem to have the edge since a win on Tuesday would have them playing at a weak Northern Illinois team to end the season...
West Virginia will try and keep their BCS title hopes alive as they
host Louisville on Thursday night. West Virginia is ranked sixth in
the country and still has a chance to move up in the polls. The Mountaineers
were idle last weekend and are second in the Big East Conference behind
Connecticut...
The Pittsburgh Steelers will be looking for revenge as they host the
Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football. Last year the Steelers
lost twice to the Ravens and ended up losing the division to Baltimore.
This year the Steelers hold a one game lead over Baltimore and a win
on Monday would make it very difficult on the Ravens...
One of the biggest games of the college football betting weekend takes
place a couple of days early on Thursday night as #8 Virginia Tech
hosts #2 Boston College. The Eagles are now #2 in the BCS standings
while the Hokies are ranked 8th. Boston College is led by quarterback
Matt Ryan who is now a Heisman Trophy candidate...
The first game of a Monday night football doubleheader takes place
in Cincinnati tonight as the Bengals host the Baltimore Ravens. Cincinnati
was a big disappointment a year ago as they finished 8-8 after being
pegged as a possible Super Bowl contender...

Tom Brady and the New England Patriots look for their first win of
the preseason on Friday night as they take on the Carolina Panthers.

gave birth on Thursday to their new boy...
After 16 regular season games and 3 weeks of playoff games, we are
finally down to this – the game of the year, Super Bowl XLI...
Alabama has been great at home this season but they continue to struggle
on the road. The Crimson Tide has dropped three of their last four
games away from home this season...
Chicago had to go to overtime to beat a Seattle team that had nothing
left by season’s end. Now the Bears host a team that is still
improving and wants to win this game more than anything. The New Orleans
Saints had the #1 offense in the NFC this past season, and the Chicago
Bears had the #1 defense...
New England is in the AFC Conference Final not so much because they
beat San Diego, but because the Chargers beat themselves. Missed opportunities
and stupid coaching decisions (there don’t have to be many to
lose a game) were the main reasons San Diego’s season came to
a crashing end...
This game will be the old classic – powerful offense meets unyielding
defense. The Indianapolis Colts had the 3rd best offense this year
while the Ravens had the #1 defense in the NFL. These teams last met
when they kicked off the 2005 season in a game that...
Indianapolis was one of two teams to go undefeated at home; the
San Diego Chargers were the other team. But in the last 2 years,
home teams have not done so well on wild card weekend. Last year,
the New England Patriots were the only home team to...
