NCAA Betting: It’s A Longhorn Party

It’s been a great year for Texas so far. The Houston Astros finally made the World Series. The Dallas Cowboys are seemingly playoff bound this year in the NFL. And President George W. Bush is the most popular president in history.
Well, the sports teams are good.
However, Sportsbook.com is of the thought that the pinnacle of Texas success is soon to come. The betting site is offering 35/1 odds to anybody if the Vince Young-led Texas University Longhorns win the Rose Bowl this year and the Rick Barnes-coached basketball team wins the NCAA championship. These are actually great odds considering it appears that Texas is destined for a head-to-head matchup with USC come January. However, we also no how unpredictable March Madness can be. Yet, with such huge payout possibilites, it’ll only add to the stressed-out drunken lunacy come springtime. Good times.

Rivalry game. Sort of. When were going up we always that that schools with the word “tech” behind them were infitely lesser just because all of their students were budding auto mechanics. At least that’s what tech school kids in our high school did. Well, not the Red Raiders who just rack up points consistently(54.6 per game!) and will now get their first true test of the season against the thunderstriking Texas Longhorns, who should be #1 right now. Texas is still 6-0 ATS this year even though last week we figured Colorado would give them something. Didn’t happen. Texas quarterback Vince Young is making dog meat of defenses all year. However Texas Tech quarterback Cody Hodges is just chucking—634 yards last week versus Kansas State. 17 points seems like a lot of points to give to a team that just loves to score within its first three plays. But we said Colorado was getting too many points as well. Take Texas until they prove other wise.
PICK!: TEX -17
