Is this as good a winner on paper as it gets?

Interesting Pete..........very interesting.

It's going to be a helluva year in CFB this year.........lots of very good teams.

Long time to have ones money in limbo on a -240 favorite............probably would pass.

I'd say that is a good bet for -240 . . .

Looks like a good bet. The advantage to field bets in these spots are injuries. McCoy has concussion history , Tebow plays vs SEC defenses and Bradford seemed to get headaches too and he was hardly touched behind last years offensive line which is gone now. That would be my greatest concern with the bet but despite saying all that , I do think you have value at -240.

The Cal running back is the biggest threat to these three in my opinion.

I took the field +300 months ago. 2 of them already won it so the chances of a repeat are very slim. Putting back-to-back worthy years is tough. So to me its the field vs mccoy and I think their is enough prospects out there and hopefully a injury

I thought McCoy should have won it last season . . . . and, I'm a Sooner.

If McCoy has another season similar to last season, he'll win it. I also would not put it past the voting majority to give it Tebow if Florida is poised to play in the National Championship game again at that time of the season.

I think Bradford is a waste of money this year for the reasons you stated.

I would take The Field at +200 no doubt. This seems too easy.
