    Any value in MichSt and OkSt 8-1 to win their respective conferences?

    Those numbers just jump out at me considering how good they were last year. Feedback.

    Not sure about mich st. but I think there is a little value in ok. st. at 8-1. Their biggest obstacles being OU @ home and the TAMU on the road. OU has a pretty tough non conference though so if they slip up in one of those games and Okst. can beat them they can win it. So I think there is some value there but not a ton.

    OSU is the clear cut #2 team in the Big 12 so they are a good bet at 8-1 but Michigan State is a TERRIBLE bet IMO. They lucked out all year and then got destroyed OOC in their bowl game

    Agree on Oklahoma State...their offense is going to be high powered. They get OU in Stillwater, so they're definitely going to have a shot

    I flat out don't think that Michigan State is that good. They have the potential to just get destroyed against any decent opponent. They Will lose to Ohio State, Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Iowa in conference and lose to Notre Dame out of conference. When they play Michigan it's a tossup but I'll give them the edge since their at home. No way they win the conference.

    Ya, game is def in Stillwater. TxAM has a pretty weak schedule, they could very easily end up winning the conf. They've got OU in Norman but then have OSU in College Station and thats about it. Non conference is weak.

    Good stuff. That doesn't happen too often. Back to back Rivalry games at home. I wonder who agreed to that.

    MSU has an incredibly difficult schedule, but then again so does Nebraska in the legends division. Great QB and RB's along with an improving defense despite losing key LB's. Probably worth biting on if odds were like 10-1 imo. MSU will be a pretty good team, just doubt they can go into Lincoln and beat Nebraska for the legends division spot in the title game.

    Okie State has a chance. The Big 10 is so up in the air that 8/1 is not a good value bet.

    yeah man save your money. there is no value on Michigan State to win the Big 10. Maybe at 50-1 but not 8-1.

    The Lions have a better shot at making the playoffs than Michigan State does to win the Big 10.

    If you want good value on a team from Michigan take the Tigers to win the American League. I don't know if they can beat the Phillies but with Verlander starting twice in a series, I can see them making the world series.

    After getting taken to the woodshed by Alabama in last year's bowl game, have to question how good Mich St. is. Take Wisc/Neb.

    they wouldnt be getting 11-1 anywhere when they are starting the season as the #9 team in the country if it were a good bet. You guys....

    keep in mind michigan state had that good record last year b/c they didn't have to play Ohio State who was pretty much the only good team in the big 10

    Anyone still think that either of these bets gave any value?

    I sure do. Oklahoma State can very easily win the Big 12, especially if Oklahoma loses tonight. It will be their's to lose.

    I think Michigan State holds some value too, obviously. Although, I think Nebraska is one hell of a team.

    Wisky kicked the crap out of Nebraska. They are beatable.

    OSU has a very tough schedule for the remainder of the season. A decent Baylor team next week.. OU coming up.. @ a Tech team that just beat OU and is 12 points from being undefeated... a solid, undefeated K. State team

    nice value

    OkState would be about -175 now

    MSU goes to Nebraska to likely decide their B10 division. If MSU wins the div and faces Wisc in B10 title game - hedge
