Illinois vs. Cincinnati College Football Picks: The undefeated (10-0) and No. 5 (BCS) ranked Cincinnati Bearcats football team must avoid a trap with two games to play when they step out of BIG EAST Conference play on Friday (12:00, ABC) when they host Illinois (3-7) of the BIG TEN. While Illinois looks harmless, they have improved in the latter stages of 2009 and have won two of their last three games. With no bowl to look forward too, the Fighting Illini players would take pleasure in turning over the Bearcats apple cart, a team who still has slight hopes of playing for a national championship.
 College football picks oddsmakers at BetUS.com list Cincinnati as 20 1/2-chalk ATS and -1400 moneyline favorites versus Illinois with a 57 total. Fighting Illini backers are gettnig +800 moneyline odds as a heavy road underdog.
Today's game has all the makings of a trap. The Bearcats biggest challenge this season awaits next week when the team must travel to play once beaten Pittsburgh at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh for the BIG EAST Championship. The winner of next weeks Pitt/Cincinnati game will get the automatic BCS bid entitled to the BIG EAST champion.
College Football Picks: The Fighting Illini have the ability to keep it close. Take Illinois and the +21 1/2 chalk.

Alabama vs Auburn College Football Picks Predictions: College football's most bitter rivalry will take place tomorrow as the Alabama Crimson Tide meet the Auburn Tigers at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Alabama. Alabama leads the all-time series 39-33-1, but the Tigers have won seven of the last nine meetings. The Iron Bowl is set to kickoff at 2:30pm ET on CBS. College Football Picks Predictions at JustBet.com have the Tide listed as a -10 against the spread road favorite. Alabama has much at stake tomorrow as its unblemished record and BCS Championship hopes are on the line against a  respectable Auburn squad. The Crimson Tide also have a meeting with Florida next weekend as they have already wrapped up the SEC West with a 7-0 conference record. Quarterback Greg McElroy indicated there will be no look ahead, though, as the Iron Bowl supercedes all in the state of Alabama. ""I'm looking forward to it," McElroy said. "It's the greatest rivalry in college football, in my opinion. It'll be a good experience. They're playing well. It's at their place, which is always exciting. I can't forget the taste that was in our mouths a couple of years ago walking out of there a loser." Auburn, which is 7-4 and 3-4 in SEC play, will have everything invested in this game. They are already bowl eligible, but whatever postseason contest they garner, it will pale in importance to tomorrow's showdown with the Tide. "That's our rival," tight end Tommy Trott said. "We'd love nothing than to wreck an undefeated season, to upset them when they're riding on their high horse, ranked (second) in the country. That'd be awesome. It's the one time in my life and most of these guy's on this team's life that you can dictate what a million people are going to feel like when they wake up the morning after the Iron Bowl. You're going to dictate what Auburn and Alabama fans are going to feel like, well over a million people." College Football Picks Predictions Betting Trend: Alabama is 8-2 against the spread and 9-1 straight up in its last 10 games as a road favorite against an SEC opponent.
