    Championship Weekend

    Nebraska -2.5 wow for real with this line. Absolutely one of the strongest plays of the year

    This is Nebraska's year if it hasn't been figured out yet. Burkhead is back fresh and rolling. Martinez and him 3 years starting. They were there 2 years ago losing to OK in the B12 champ. They've gotten this far responding after last year's failure, four 4th Q comebacks this year. They have all the experience and resilience and now just 1 win to get them to their first conference title under Pelini. It's simply their time.

    Wisconsin off back to back OT losses. They had their moments the last few seasons and their wad is shot. No business being here if not for the impossible that the 2 best teams in the div are on probation.

    Georgia +7.5

    Dogs were there last year with practically the same team. Have gotten nothing but disrespect and they've carried a chip and will likely win SU. Classic BCS for Bama to go down again, this year a lot like 2007.

    UCLA +10

    Mora gets them up and keep em close after they really benefited from losing. Stan doesn't have a blowout win in them after the last 2 huge weeks that have drained them.

    I think you are spot on Sunde with all of them. Aj Mccarren will have to play lights out for Alabama to have a chance covering. I consider Georgia a true equal to Alabama along the same lines as lsu and a& m. He played poorly in those games.

    Alabama's secondary can be had. Cant get pressure on Qb. Aj feels heat when defense is not dominating for him. I dont think Alabama defense good enough to dominate.

    Bama secondary can definitely be had. Bama turned Mettenberger into Brady, career high passing that game. Murray is sound and leads the country in QB rating. UGA is the best overall team Bama will play for the season.

    Nebraska isn't losing this game. Martinez, Burkhead, Pelini been through too much, too much experience from failure, overcome too much to get here and fail. Their time. Brett Bielema doesn't go to 3 straight Rose Bowls. Line is nuts, should be -7.5

    I'm gonna take your word for it with Nebraska. I almost threw them in a teaser this past weekend and watched them struggle against Iowa which has me skeptical.

    Stop Monte Ball and James White and Whisky will have no answers. Think Stanford has no business laying 10 points, just too high. Think you nailed all 3 and I plan on playing Georgia ML for the same reasons you already stated. Not sold on the vaunted Bama D and think Georgia D is probably a little better than them. McCarron will be forced to make plays

    GL, you'll be lucky that I won't be able to get enough points. Bowl season is my money maker. Hope you pull it off.

    Nebraska was -11 the first game. -7.5 is a true line to me off that and intuitively. Books have had new found respect for Wisconsin for no reason at all. Favorite vs OSU. Small dog @PSU. They don't have a single quality win on the schedule. Only win vs a winning team at home to Utah State by 2 points where USU missed a last second 30 yard FG.

    Where Wisconsin chokes in the clutch (3 OT losses, 17 point blown 2h lead @Neb), Neb excels (5 2h comebacks). Neb has the resolve and experience. Burkhead back and fresh is invaluable.

    As Frisco says shut the run down they have nothing. QB is a 50% passer without a prayer.

    Like all three, but frankly, I'm baffled by Nebraska not being at least -5 given Wisconsin's QB situation now and Georgia being a dog of over a TD (figured they would open in the +5.5 or +6 range). I don't get either opening line. Then again, I didn't get Florida +8 at Florida State either and look what happened.

    I agree, Nebraska is the play here, but Wisconsin had a really good shot at winning (and covering) those games against PSU and Ohio State. It's not like the books completely whiffed on those.

    Nebraska should travel much better this weekend, too. expect the crowd to be 60-70% UNL fans.

    The conditions were bad for that game. Strong winds and low temps really negated the talent edge for Nebraska. I don't necessarily think that should be held against them strongly.

    Thanks for the insight, was wondering why they struggled and that makes me feel better about Nebraska.

    Haha it really isn't terrible. Especially considering one team completely doesn't deserve to be there. Big Ten shouldn't of banned Ohio State from this game, it would of been packed.

    Absolute travesty if Wisconsin wins. But Nebraska does like to play from behind.
