All eyes in the sports betting world are on Lubbock, Texas as Texas Tech behind the arm of Graham Harrell to Michael Crabtree tries to lead Mike Leach and the Red Raiders to victory or at least a cover to Texas and Colt McCoy. Somehow we knew that Cinderella kicker Matt Williams would finally miss a kick to keep it close. The last kick was a gooey duck.

I have to confess, I was running for the college football overtime rules, once Temple blew the big lead to Navy and it went to OT. We were not 100 percent sure if Navy would have to kick the extra point and give us the Dr. Strange against the spread loss of the year. But the schedule calls for Texas Tech to eek out a spread win.

We will have to check out the YouTube video of John McCain (political betting odds) on SNL as these games are too darn close and we are checking to see if we will add anymore late steam to GodsTips incredible Sunday NFL betting card to complete winning week 12-of-14 in pro football betting.

The power of 620 sports services behind every selection is on a 111-61 tear in football, NCAA and NFL.

Leo Getz nailed his College Football Game of the Month on Cincinnati Thursday. Perhaps lost in his Big East domination is he is darn good in all sports and has hit 55-of-73 Game of the Week/Month/Year plays in all sports. ACC Game of the Year Miami/Virginia and his Interconference Game of the Year Tulsa/Arkansas both go Saturday.

The Duke, Jonathan Mardukas built up a large scorephone following over the last dozen or so years.  With a database that goes back to 1980 the MasterLockLine say he is the top ranked college and pro football handicapper EVER. Highest rated college football total ever, a 2 Million Star on the USF/Cincinnati total under. Ala Getz in the Big East and Bill Tanner in the Big 10, he is even better with SEC picks. Only his third Five Million Star release ever (he’s nailed the previous two by 17.5 points against the spread combined) on Tennessee/South Carolina. It will be like you went to Katmandu and got a Rastafarian witch doctor to jinx the sportsbooks

In perhaps the greatest college football run of his decorated career, Tanner has just one Platinum Play and it’s on Central Michigan/Indiana

Bo Eason is the No. 2 ranked handicapper all sports combined since 1990 and No. 1 in MLB.  His 10*s have turned a profit in every sport (college and pro counted separately) literally every year since 1990. 10* Parlay of the Year wins on Oregon and Penn State Saturday Oct. 25 and Weeknight Game of the Year 10* Buffalo on Oct. 28.
