Is Anyone Interested In A BCS National Championship?

So yeah, does anyone care about the BCS National Championship? Enjoy betting on the winner of the BCS National Championship because it’s almost impossible to figure out who will be there.

USC won’t be, after they played like a Scott Linehan coached team at Oregon State this past Thursday. Clemson, who was already out of the Championship picture after getting Bobby Browned by Alabama, added in a home loss to Maryland for good measure. Wake Forest lost to Navy – yes, you read that right – and Florida couldn’t kick an extra point against Ole Miss. Georgia’s BCS Championship hopes were put to rest by Alabama on Saturday night while Wisconsin also will be watching MAD TV’s Lowered Expectations after losing in the Big House.

A total of six ranked teams lost to six unranked teams this week.

I think it’s time to party like it’s 2007, when the BCS was a weekly mess. With so many massive upsets, bet on the college football underdogs regularly. They seem to be paying off.

This Mascot Blows

So the debate came up in the workplace today – what team has the worst mascot around? The Stanford Tree was the consensus until we found this piece of work:

By the way, the over/under is set at 219.5 for amount of crude oral sex jokes that Blowie has received from egregiously lurid males. I’ll take the over.

NFL Weak…Week 4

There’s no Eagles-Cowboys, or Chargers-Broncos, or Jaguars-Colts this week. As a matter of fact, the ‘marquee’ part of ‘marquee matchups’ is on a bye week.

Here’s what we are left with.

You’ve got your Redskins versus Cowboys lines, Packers versus Buccaneers spread, Ravens versus Steelers odds and Vikings versus Titans betting.

How could I forget the enticing Broncos-Chiefs contest? Yawn.

The good news is that the new season of Californication starts this Sunday, so there will be at least one good thing to watch this Sunday. Although getting some of the best parlay odds going definitely takes any football game and makes it exciting.

SEC Makes Me Foam At The Mouth

The SEC is wonderful. It’s on such a higher pedestal than any other division in college football and every week there is some sort of tantalizing contest.

Click here for Alabama versus Georgia odds or Tennessee versus Auburn picks.

We’ll have more stuff about the games as the weekend approaches.

By the way, what’s your favorite color: blue or yellow?

Detroit Lions Defense Aids Young Opposing QB’s

The Detroit Lions defense is deplorable. It’s in the conversation with the Kansas City Chiefs and the St. Louis Rams, although the Cleveland Browns defense just called and is making a case to be part of the talk.

Opposing quarterbacks have had a very easy time against the feeble Lions defense. Here’s their stats from the first three weeks:

Week 1 vs Matt Ryan (ATL):
9-13, 161 YDS, TD

Week 2 vs Aaron Rodgers (GB):
24-38, 328 YDS, 3 TD

Week 3 vs J.T. O’Sullivan (SF):
16-23, 189 YDS, 2 TD

For those of you math buffs, here are the cumulative stats: 49-74 (66.2%), 678 YDS, 6 TD, 0 INT

The best part is Week 1, they faced a quarterback who was making his first career NFL start. In week 2, they were facing a quarterback making his second NFL start and in week 3, they faced a quarterback making his third NFL start.

What happens when they face an experienced quarterback?

What College Football Game Are You Most Excited For This Weekend?

There may not be an Ohio State-USC game this weekend, but realistically, it might be better this way. That game sucked last week, for entertainment purposes.

This week’s card presents a ton of sexy matchups that could be extremely even matched. As evenly as Shanon Elizabeth and Tara Reid doing an algebra test.

*Got to love the irrelevant chic picks, although Florida State hosting a pretty big game against Wake Forest.

Florida Gators vs Tennessee Volunteers
-Florida Ike Turnered Tennessee last year and ran up the score. They’ve already been talking talk saying that Tennessee quit on that game and head coach Philip Fulmer has got his team thinking no one in the world believes in them. I do, Phil. I do.

Alabama Crimson Tide vs Arkansas Razorbacks
-The Alabama Crimson Tide have so many advantages in this game I’m even wondering how Arkansas will compete. And their quarterback is a Dick (Casey Dick).

Georgia Bulldogs @ Arizona State Sun Devils
-Long trip for Georgia but figure me this: Georgia topped a very tough South Carolina squad on the road last week while Arizona State lost at home to UNLV. ASU better hope that they were looking ahead because on paper, they should get crushed here.

LSU Tigers @ Auburn Tigers
-Tigers versus Tigers in a crucial SEC battle. I’ll take Auburn because of revenge (from last year) and because they are battle tested this year (played stiffer competition). I’ll take what the online sportsbook odds give me, and that’s a decent payout if the underdog Auburn Tigers win.
