I've been having success in Big 10 betting, so I'm going with two favorites today. Good luck with your plays.
Ohio St -9.5 (risking $150 to win $150)
Ohio St has completely dominated my expectations as far as how well they could play on the road. I expect at least a 2 TD victory from the Buckeyes vs. a very OVER-hyped, UNDER-achieving Illini squad.
Michigan ML -170 (risking $170 to win $100)
I got burnt pretty big time when I took Michigan -3 to open the season vs. Utah. I'm trying to get some of that $$ BACK since the Wolverines are finally catching their stride and the Wildcats are sliding downwards.
I'm going to Las Vegas Sunday, so I'm hoping that these two picks will give me a little extra spending money!!!
Best of luck to everyone and input IS definitely appreciated

Arizona -9.5Sticking with the team who has some semblance of offensive cohesiveness. Arizona has won something like 9 or more games straight at home and I don't see that trend ending today.
I took San Fran -5 two weeks ago at home vs. the Seahawks. Let's just say that They got routed by about 20 points and since that day I've vowed to never bet on their sorry asses again.
Mike Singletary is going to have a tough time stopping the juggernaut 'Zone offense while I expect the '49er's seriously struggle to punch it into the end zone. I'm going with the superior team, with the superior offense at home on the Monday Night Platform.
Arizona -9.5 to the bank.

Alabama -3My logic here is simple: 'Bama is deserving of their #1 ranking and for reasons unbeknown to me the line is
MONEY.
I literally only choose one POY, with last years being LSU in the Nat'l Title game -4. For it to be a POY for me it has to meet very strict criterion: only ONE play this strong per YEAR per sport. I'm so confident in these RARE plays that I tell all of my betting friends about it, give my logic why, and encourage them to bet on it.
Alabama's defense is brutal this year, stepping it up in a way I didn't really think was possible.
Defensive Edge: 'BamaOffensively JPW is so much superior to LSU's inexperienced QB(s) that it's not even funny. JPW protects the football and very rarely makes idiotic decisions. Unlike LSU, I doubt on the very first play from the line of scrimmage he'll start the game with a pick-6 (LSU/Georgia anyone???)
Offensive Edge: 'BamaIntangibles worthy of mention are the coaching advantage of Saban. Simply put, he is one of the finest college football coaches to ever grace the sport and is on a mission to prove that they're worthy of their #1 ranking.
