Ride Colts, Vikings to the Super Bowl

Are you a sports betting player waiting to make your Super Bowl picks? The NFL season is coming to a close and teams are jockeying for playoff position, which means it’s time to start thinking about your picks for the The Big Game. Here’s who we think will be in Miami on February 7^th.

AFC – Indianapolis (+120)

Pittsburgh and New England have looked like a shadow of their former selves, and San Diego can’t be trusted until they have success in the playoffs. Therefore, you have to go with the tried and true, and that’s what Peyton Manning and the Colts are. The defense has gone through some injuries and their secondary is young, but with Manning at the helm, the Colts are never out of any game. Just ask Miami and the Patriots.

NFC – Minnesota (+110)

With all due respect to New Orleans, we’re giving the edge to the Vikings based on experience, notably, at quarterback. Drew Brees did well to lead the team to the NFC title game in 2006 before they were blown out by Philadelphia. Brett Favre has led a team to a Super Bowl win and looks as confident as he ever has, and he’s surrounded with a disgusting array of weapons, as is New Orleans. This NFC championship game needs to happen. Minnesota also gets an edge via their defense, which leads the league in sacks.

Super Bowl

The season is destined to end with a Minnesota Super Bowl win, especially after the Favre saga of the offseason. The Minnesota defense can get to Manning, while Favre could carve up the young Indy secondary. The Colts won’t be able to run on the Vikings, who can also batter the Colts’ defense with Adrian Peterson.

NFL picks: Minnesota +350

College Football Betting – ACC clash headlines Week 4 picks

College football betting hasn’t been the same without “The U” being a force, and No.9 Miami will look to prove their no joke when they take on No.11 Virginia Tech in a huge ACC matchup. Elsewhere, there’s an intriguing matchup in the Pac-10, and as always, action in the SEC.

Miami vs Virginia Tech odds (Saturday, 3:30 PM ET)

The Hokies will be out to avenge a 16-14 loss at Miami last year, but they’ve still won four of their last six against the Hurricanes, who showed they weren’t just an offensive team in shutting down Georgia Tech’s triple option. The Hokies’ offense is one-dimensional, and their defense hasn’t been as stout as recent years.

College football betting pick: Miami +2.5

Cal vs Oregon odds (Saturday, 3:30 PM ET)

The No.6 Golden Bears are now the team to beat in the Pac-10, and we’ll see how they handle the pressure when they head to Oregon, who were supposed to be in the running for the conference title. Cal’s 2007’s 31-24 win at Oregon was their first in five trips to Eugene….can they make it two in a row?

College football betting pick: Cal -5.5

Ole Miss vs South Carolina odds (Thursday, 8:30 PM ET)

The No.4 Rebels have high expectations this year, and they’re aiming for their second straight win at South Carolina. The Gamecocks won 31-24 last year at Ole Miss, and that could be more motivation for the Rebels to come up big on Thursday night.
