Bettors Like Texas Tech And The Bulldogs

By SPORTSBETTING.COM

Ok, you could say the storm hit last week when the Texas Longhorns defeated the Oklahoma Sooners and replaced their Big 12 rivals as the nation?s No. 1 team or when the No. 17 Oklahoma State Cowboys beat the No. 3 ranked Missouri Tigers or even when the No. 4 LSU Tigers fell to the No. 11 Florida Gators.

However, the first Bowl Championship Series rankings of the year are coming out on Sunday and there is more than a good chance that more ?you know what? will hit the fan before all is said and done.

Texas Tech is currently ranked seventh and while they will need help to qualify for the BCS championship game in January (+1000 to win at SPORTSBETTING.COM), the Red Raiders have a good shot at making a BCS bowl.

Texas Tech can make an impression with a lopsided win when they travel to play the Texas A&M Aggies on Saturday, listed as big 20.5-point favorites.

The Red Raiders have been able to get the green against the Aggies too going 10-3 straight up in the last 13 games and 11-2 against the spread.

A 20.5-point line signifies a mismatch, but that is a lot of points to lay?the public is onside though with the favorite, SPORTSBETTING.COM is seeing an overwhelming 79% majority betting on Texas Tech.

The Georgia Bulldogs have fallen to 10th since an untimely loss to Alabama a couple of weeks back but if they manage to run the table there is a chance that they could return to the upper echelon of the rankings.

The Bulldogs? opponent this week is another team that has suffered because of a loss, the Vanderbilt Commodores with the Bulldogs listed as a 14.5-point favorite.

Ranked 13th last week, Vandy dropped down to 22 thanks to a 3-point loss to Mississippi State last week.

The Commodores have been dreadful on the Money line against Georgia only cashing in once in the last 13 games (1-12 SU) and while they have been more profitable against the line, they are still sub .500 with a record of 6-7 ATS.

The early betting is going Georgia?s way as they are seeing 68% of the volume.

You know, for a team that lost by 10-points to Texas last week, the Oklahoma Sooners didn?t drop very far in the standings?from first to fourth?and with a little help they could erase the pain of the Red River Rivalry loss and make a trip to the BCS title game (+1200 to win it all).
The Sooners, who are 19.5-point favorites can get back on track this week when they host the Kansas Jayhawks.

Although only 3-3 ATS vs. the Jayhawks, Oklahoma has a four-game winning streak SU and a three-game win streak ATS going against Kansas.

The public is a little divided on who to wager on in this game as the Sooners are getting only 53% of the action.

You can?t help but think that the Ohio State Buckeyes are looking at Oklahoma with envious eyes.

The Buckeyes weren?t the No. 1 team when they were blown out by the USC Trojans back in Week 3 but they tumbled from No. 5 all the way down to 13 because of the loss.

The Buckeyes haven?t lost a game since, while the No. 1 spot has changed hands a few times and Ohio State has only moved up to the 12 spot.

There is nothing Ohio State can do but continue to win its games however, including this week?s game against Big Ten rival and the No. 20 team, the Michigan State Spartans; the Buckeyes are favored by a field goal.

Although the Spartans scored an ATS win against the Buckeyes last year, Ohio State has been the dominant team going 7-2 SU and 5-3-1 ATS dating back to 1997.

That isn?t enough for bettors though, as 54% of the wagers are going towards Michigan State.

There?s has been a god number of wild upsets in college ball the last few weeks, will it continue?

Enjoy the rest of your week.
