Bowl Weekend Spectacular: NFL & NCAA Picks
Posted by Jim in Sports Bet BookIts a college bowl weekend this go-around. That means you get a bonus 3 picks on college games! Lets rock.
We did well last week, 2/3 games gets us in the money every time. Lets continue the streak this week on a six-game set, three NFL and three NCAA games. Keep in mind that these lines are adjusted as of this posting.
NCAA Game 1: Boston College Golden Eagles (-5.5)
The Golden Eagles ended their 2007 season by losing two games and dropping the ACC title after being ranked as high as 2nd in the nation. The Michigan State Spartans closed out their season in a comeback victory over the Penn State. But luck is reversed in this game, as BC shows how they earned a 10-3 record. BC is 10-0 out of conference and the Spartans can’t seem to win in December (2-5).
NCAA Game 2: Penn State Nittany Lions (-5.5)
The Nittany Lions wreaked havoc in the ‘99 Alamo Bowl against the Aggies, routing them 24-0. This time shouldn’t be much different. Penn Staters are hungry for a win after an ugly finish of the regular season, defensive stars Sean Lee and Dan Conner should have their way with the A&M front line in this one.

If the Browns can’t beat the 5-9 Cincinnati Bengals on the road, they might as well kiss their unlikely playoff run goodbye. Last time these teams played, there were a whopping 96 points scored as the Browns emerged victorious. This time around, the Browns actually think they are talented, and need this win to get into the AFC wild card. Look for a big game out of Jamal Lewis as the Browns roll.
Okay, you got me, I am a Giants fan and wouldn’t tell you otherwise. However, you cannot ignore this amazing point spread giving that this is literally Big Blue’s 
As you know, both wild-card races in the AFC and NFC are airtight at this point. And while Denver’s loss to the Houston Texans last night helped out the AFC picture a bit, things are still pretty crowded in both divisions as the fight for that coveted 2nd wild-card spot continues.
First the NFC, some great match-ups here, obviously highlighted in a clash between two of the arguably best in the NFL, yes I’m talking about the Dallas Cowboys (7-1) at the New York Giants (6-2). This game will determine who sits on top of the NFC East, and will be a real test for a Giants team who has faced a losing bunch in its past 4-5 games. I see the Giants coming out firing with an early score, but eventually they will be playing from behind in the forth quarter. Being a Giants fan myself, it’s hard to call this a loss… so I’ll sit here and hope for the best in a down-to-the-wire game. The Philadelphia Eagles (3-5) play on the road against rival Washington Redskins (5-3). I see the Eagles eeking out a win in a game that they honestly need a whole lot more than the Skins. In the NFC North, look for the Green Bay Packers (7-1) to be 
upset by 6-point underdogs, the Minnesota Vikings (3-5)… oh and Adrian Peterson. With even odds, the Detroit Lions (6-2) rule the airways and defeat the Arizona Cardinals (3-5) on the road.
Let’s start it off in the NFL. Interesting match-ups, lets have a look. Cleveland Browns at St. Louis Rams should turn out to be the Rams first win of the season. The Browns may not be as bad as we thought they were when the season started, but the Rams have been so heavily denied that you gotta think they will break out soon; this is that week. The Detroit Lions could have some trouble with the staunch Chicago Bears defense on the road, but I see them rolling through this. Chicago could cause turnover problems, but I think they will miss opportunities as the Lions turn up the heat. The Indianapolis Colts shouldn’t have much trouble at all eating the Carolina Panthers alive this week on the road. With the first international game of the season, I see the New York Giants dominating the 0-7 Miami Dolphins on both ends of the field in London, rolling to a healthy 6-2. The 7.5 favorite Tennessee Titans should have plenty of trouble with the Oakland Raiders at home this week. Look for Oakland to at least cover the spread on this one. The Philadelphia Eagles get a much needed win over the Minnesota Vikings on the road this week. McNabb steps it up in the pocket and makes up for the Adrian Peterson factor. The Pittsburgh Steelers are only favored by 4 against the Cincinnati Bengals? You gotta be kidding me. Steelers blow this spread away three-fold. NY Jets get their second win of the season at home against the Buffalo Bills when Lee Evans cannot produce a second-straight stellar performance and L. Coles takes over. No betting line yet on the Houston Texans v. San Diego Chargers or the Jacksonville Jaguars v. Tampa Bay Buccaneers games. Any while the Chargers wrap up the Texans with a classic L.T. show, the Bucs will stun Jaguar fans
