COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAY

* L.S.U. +9  at   Mississippi St.

These two basketball teams just play each other so close, so often, that I got to go with the Tigers with all those points on the road.  They have played competitively  in the SEC so far and I think think the defense and the 3 days rest should allow them to hang tonight.

NFL CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND MONEY PLAY

***Baltimore +7.5   at   New England

This will be a close one, and I think the Ravens have a great shot.

Predicted Score : 24-21 either way

COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAY

*Cincinnati +6.5  at  UCONN

I know the Huskies have been great at home this year (10-0), but I also think that The Bearcats are not getting nearly as much respect as they should.  They are 14-4 overall and not even ranked.  They are familiar with playing Uconn, so this should be a tight ball game

NFL PLAY-OFFS DIVISIONAL ROUND

I believe these teams will definitely advance this weekend, so here's what I got cooking.

3 TEAM ML PARLAY:  This bet will pay something around 1.5/1

New Orleans(-200)  at  San Francisco      Predicted Score:  Saints 27  FortyNiners 23

Baltimore(-330)  vs  Houston          Predicted Score:   Ravens 23  Texans 10

Green Bay(-330)  vs  NY GIANTS    Predicted Score:  Packers 27  Giants 21

TIM TEBOW

As I was watching Colin Cowturd on ESPN a little earlier and listening to this weird looking fucker talk about how it's ridiculous because everyone loves this guy sooo much.  "Nobody loved Mark Sanchez, and he beat Brady and Manning in the play-offs, Tebow hasn't."  Yea well that really was an example of a good team around a QB, because Tebow's team I believe would have been 5-11 without him.  No one said he was a great passer, or even a good passer, but he is a great leader and runner.  I think people that hate on Tebow do it because he's not traditional, a passer, but he is built for crunch time and he does bring a new style, which is why so many people like him.  I think some guys don't like him because every woman wants to bang him.  If I were a chick I definitely would too.  As crazy as I think this sounds, I think that of all underdogs this weekend, Tebow's Broncos have the best chance of an upset.  New England has not won a play-off game in the last 2 tries and it's because they don't have that defense.

2012 BCS CHAMPIONSHIP LSU vs BAMA

If you still think that this should not be the match-up for this game even after seeing the lack of defense by the other potential qualifiers, you're just a jackass.  I think this is about as good as it gets for championship games.  Given the season, either one of these teams could win a National title.  I personally think LSU has the better overall team, and even though born and bred in the area, I have no likes for this school.  I have enjoyed watching the Tigers play this year, though, for I love smash mouth football teams that take the ball away on D.  Although I think LSU has the better squad, I just can not pick this one, and I want to think they will definitely win. There are some deciding factors.  Les Miles has won every bowl game with LSU where his team overmatched the other team with talent, except for Penn St two years ago, and lost. Alabama is pretty even with talent and have Nick Saban, who has a game to study on them.  That just worries me.

Predicted Score : 21-17  either way

NFL PLAY-OFF PICK

*Cincinnati +3   at   Houston

This will be the second time around for the Bengals.  They pretty much dominated the last game, and now have film on Yates who is playing with a separated non-throwing shoulder.  Dalton was hospitalized with the flu on Wednesday but returned to practice yesterday and should be fine.  The Bengals have young players but more play-off experience than the Texans.  I think D coordinator for Cincy, Mike Zimmer, will have a better plan for them this time.

NFL PLAY-OFFS 2012

Well, here we are kids.  Are you excited?  I know I am because my instincts are telling me something I like very much.  If you followed me from the beginning before the season started my pick to win the SuperBowl this year was the New Orleans Saints.  Don't believe me, check the blog in July and August.  Well, a lot seems to change throughout the course of a season and I don't always make convictions like this as early as now.  I usually need to watch and learn a little once the play-offs proceed, but when I see something, it's there, and it looks like I don't feel much differently as of now.
