This Week in Betting, A to Z
by T.O. Whenham - 09/12/2007A - Adrian Peterson. 103 yards rushing and a 60-yard TD catch. Think this guy is going to be any good? If he keeps doing that, and Tavaris Jackson keeps paying basically acceptable football, then Minnesota and their solid defense could win more than expected. Of course, it would help if they could play the Falcons and the ... read more

Labor Day Weekend – Big 12 and Mountain West, what we learned...
Big 12 NorthAs long as Marlon Lucky runs like that, Nebraska will be very difficult for opposing teams to defend. NU’s defense looked the part of the old Blackshirts, but Nevada did drop 15 balls. NU should be undefeated when USC comes calling on Sept. 15, and from the looks it, the Trojans had better bring their “A” game or they ... read more

2007 Big Ten Conference Preview
The Big Ten's biggest challenge this year is to prove to the world that the mounds of humiliation heaped upon them in the BCS last year were just a fluke. Ohio State was horrific in the National Championship Game that everyone in the world outside of Gainesville, Fla. was certain they would win, and Michigan stunk it up so badly against USC that, as ... read more

2007 WAC Preview
You might not think that you know much about the Western Athletic Conference, but if you are even a somewhat committed fan of college football you probably know a bit about at least two of its teams. Boise State became the darling of the country with their stunning upset of Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl last season. You may know Hawaii from their prolific ... read more

2007 College Football Conference Tendencies
One thing I like to do is to look for any tendencies that occur in a conference. Sometimes finding one or two can help line your pockets with cash throughout the season. However, tendencies can change from year to year. But, if you can find one that lasts for a couple of seasons, it is well worth the effort. Back in 2000, there were a number of double-digit ... read more

2007 Big 12 Preview
The Big 12 is slowly returning to its formidable form after nearly a decade of decline in its Northern Division, which led to outright domination from Oklahoma and Texas. Nebraska is showing signs of its old self, albeit, an option attack is nowhere to be seen. Nebraska lost the majority of its defensive front seven, and while the newcomers are very ... read more
