According to a PRNewswire report last week, the way bettors at Sportsbook.com, the world's largest online sportsbook and casino, have been laying their bets on the BCS Bowl games you'd think they were all Big Ten alumni. More than 60 percent of bettors are backing Ohio State to cover the eight point spread against Florida in the BCS title game while a whopping 73 per cent back Michigan to beat USC in what is essentially a road game at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. The Buckeyes are undeniably the top team in college football, and the support they are getting from fans is justified. The Wolverines, who many feel should have been awarded a shot at the Buckeyes in the championship game, are a bit of a surprise to be carrying such heavy betting support in a game that is now a pick 'em according to the odds makers. In the Fiesta Bowl, 70 per cent of bettors are laying their money on Oklahoma covering the spread against Bosie State, while in the Orange Bowl 53 percent are backing Louisville despite their big 10 point spread against Wake Forest. In the Sugar Bowl, 65 percent of fans are wagering on LSU to overcome Notre Dame.
