And the game we have all been waiting for...sad because it's the last CFB game, but great because of the matchup...pretty much dead set on the side and working out the kinks on the total...I can tell you that I will be making a max play (30*) on this game...but we have plenty of time before it kicks...we ARE going out in style...who's with me?

Well Sportslock I'm not dead set on side yet but I feel very strongly about it, and I think I am pretty dead set on the total. I'll tell you now, remember these are not my picks yet so do not let them affect yours but I really like
Oklahoma and the Under.Comment -
I'm on board with you Strictly. The line has now moved to OK +4.5. With any luck this will get to +6 by game time. The under is also a smart play as almost every bowl game has finished on the under side. I will be playing both OK and the under as straight bets and then OK on the ML.

Very Very smart, Dana, Don't put anything in yet, just wait for better line and any late info we might get, to give us an edge.Comment -
I got to ask how a GatorFan would be against Florida. I have a last leg of a teaser with Florida +5.5 but other than that I have not played anything yet. I was planning on playing Florida minus whatever the points because I think that Florida blows out OK but I would love to hear your thoughts, analysis, trends and angles that makes you pick against your own team and take OK. Thanks!Comment -
30* Oklahoma Sooners (+175)
This is one of the most ridiculously delicious lines I have seen in a loooong time...worth every dollar wagered on it...if you don't feel comfortable..please take the +5 they are so generously giving as well...and it is also in your best interest to WAIT THIS LINE OUT, it seems the public is all over Florida, and for us, that is great news...lets put the Heisman QB, the most prolific Offense EVER in Division 1 Football and all of those 60+ point games in a row, and take it to Timmy Teblow. A smaller play on the total is forthcoming.Comment -
I love it baby lets roll!Comment -
What do you guys think of the Under 70?Comment -
I like the under but don't think I'm going to touch it, just going to wait for Oklahoma to go to +185 tgeb am going to put my house on it.Comment -
This is getting really interesting...........I am thinking about staying away all togther but its hard not to bet FLA. I hate when everyone starts banging on the conferences but so far the Big 12 looks like they may be a little over rated.........TT went down, Tx barley squeked by OSU.etc.....
SEC..............5-2 in the bowls and 5-2 ATS
Big 12...........4-2 in the bowls and 2-4 ATS
Thats the real story............Comment -
Will FLorida Gators playing in FLA be a factor? Not sure how the tickets were being sold and to who. Seems like there would be alot more Gator fans then there would be OK fans?Comment -
I see all the guys that I like to follow on OK...and I was on them, especially at +180. But then I thought about Florida pretty much playing at home...I think I will probably just put a small wager on OK to win it, because the +5 is pointless in college football in my opinion.Comment -
Ok guys, OU can put up a lot of points but these are the reasons I think they will lose.
1. They play mostly a sign coverage. If you mix a zone coverage with speed. A 5 yard play can turn into a 50 yard play on a run or pass. There zone is set up to combat the pass. Why. Everyone in their conference throws the ball. Texas, TT, Kansas etc all throw the ball a lot. Most of the teams in the Big 12 play a zone scheme.
With those 60 pointers OU throws up, there offense and defense do not play full games. Here are the breakdown by Quarters.
OK Offense OK Defense Florida O Florida D
1st Q 17.92 2.50 13.33 0.83
2nd Q 16.92 9.42 12.00 2.58
3rd Q 12.50 6.42 11.00 4.50
4th Q 6.0 6.50 10.0 4.33
The numbers I would like you to look at is the fourth quarter numbers for OK. I lot of people will say they pull their offense and defense in the fourth quarter and thats my point. I just worry they will have a problem playing the whole game. When your Offense and Defense are not used to playing the whole game it creates a conditioning problem.
In the Texas game you heard every OK fan saying. "Man we had them until the end. Texas was balanced team that played solid D. They did not panic win they were down. They mixed the pass and run and when OU got tired they beat them.
3rd A lot them teams offenses that are pass based are having a hard time getting started. I.E. Texas, TT, etc. It is easier to be consistant in the running game than the pass.
INGAME TIMING is needed. This gives OU the advantage.
OU has a great chance to jump out on Florida and take it off it. They have motivation based on the comments made about there D. The have a better Offense than Florida. This will be a game of matchups and OK is +1 Offense and Fl +1.
I think they will get worn down by the running game.
Any comments PLEASEComment -
good insight, although it is biased...what about florida and their offense laying back to finish games...and the fact that OU faces 5 conference foes with ridiculous throwing attacks, thus their shabby numbers against the pass...put the gators in that division and their overall d would not be top 20Comment -
Florida could just get straight FKD up tonight, i mean, just run on and i can't wait to see the game no matter what, its gonna be great.Comment -
i just added another small wager on an adjusted line: Oklahoma +14.5 (-260)Comment -
Let our friends in Bristol (ESPN) keep leading all the money to Florida...only gonna get us a better positionComment -
Now that the line has gone all the way up to 6 or more in some spots, I want to let everyone know that there is huge value in that...when the line was 3.5/4, the ML was, and still is a good play, but getting that many points is tough not to take...so if you want to take the points instead of the ML, definitely do that.Comment
