NCAA Football Tickets – Betting On Bowl Game Blowouts I By Brent Warnken At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

The bowl games are all decided, so fans are scrambling to secure NCAA football tickets from http://www.stubhub.com/ncaa-football-tickets to the bowls they most want to see. Needless to say, there is no dearth of options out there for interested football nuts who want to see a great game. Several bowls portend to be very close matchups- such as Virginia Tech-Cincinnati in the Orange Bowl, or Ball State and Tulsa in the GMAC Bowl. However, this article is going to focus on some of the bowl games that have the highest chance of being a blowout. Not only are blowouts bad for ratings and general entertainment, they can sometimes leave sports gamblers feeling the holiday blues. So here’s how to navigate the blowout bowl game minefield.

Fiesta Bowl
Ohio State – Texas: Spread: Texas by 9.5
Do you dare chance a wager on this one? Yes: Texas will be about 20 points up by halftime, so you can spend the rest of your January 5th evening listing the credit card companies you will pay off and in what order, after your money comes back to you. While the investment won’t get much return, it’s a bad market to be trying anything funny, and you should be glad to get anything this holiday season, considering the choices you’ve made on college football bets this year. I know I will be. Texas is ranked ninth in the nation in total offense this season. They average 43.9 points per game. Ohio State averages 28.2. There’s your spread. There it goes. Out the window and right into the lap of your average neighborhood bookie. Play it safe at the end here and bet on the Longhorns. Remember your resolution: Do NOT chase your bets. Also, you should remember to purchase more NCAA football tickets at cheaper prices. Might we suggest finding them at StubHub in the New Year?

Rose Bowl
Penn State – USC: Spread: USC by 10
Do you dare chance a wager on this one? Let me put it this way. Many cultures believe that the way you spend New Years Day is the way you will wind up spending the rest of the year. As such, most cultures spend the early part of the year wandering home drunk in the cold, sleep until June, when they are woken up by the bright summer lights, and then proceed to watch college football on Advil until winter time, when it’s back to hibernation. Do you want to spend the entirety of 2009 with a hangover the size of Charlie Weis while wallowing in abject, American auto industry-style poverty? Or do you want to spend the entirety of 2009 with a hangover the size of the late Rodney Dangerfield while wallowing in wealth the likes of which Rodney Dangerfield character Al Czervik from Caddyshack (who would make for another aptly sized hangover) has never even dreamed of? Here’s the facts. USC is the nation’s best scoring defense, allowing a mere 7.8 points per game. Penn State ranks 4th in the nation, at 12.4. So quit hyping up the USC defense, because both teams play some excellent D. The real factor here is home field advantage, and, playing essentially a home game, the Trojans ought to be unstoppable. At home they beat Ohio State 35-3, Oregon 44-10, and Cal 17-3. So they will be in top form at the Rose Bowl. Bet of the Trojans here.
