Cincinnati at Pittsburgh College Football Picks: The No. 5 ranked Cincinnati Bearcats travel up to Pittsburgh, Penn., to play the No. 14 Pittsburgh Panthers at Heinz Field with the winner claiming the automatic BCS bowl bid awarded annually to the BIG EAST Conference football champion. The Bearcats are currently undefeated at 11-0 with a 6-0 conference mark while Pitt sits at 9-2 but with only one conference loss. The Bearcats have already claimed a share of the BIG EAST title but need a win over the Panthers to enjoy the spoils of the BCS berth.

College football picks oddsmakers have lined Cincinnati, one of the six unbeaten teams in the nation, as 2-chalk ATS and -130 moneyline road favorites versus Pitt with a 58 total. Backers of the home team Panthers are getting +110 moneyline odds as the underdog.

Saturday marks the ninth meeting between the Bearcats and Panthers, with Pitt holding a 7-1 advantage in the series. Pitt has won five straight games of the series in Pittsburgh. In 2008 the Bearcats got the best of the Panthers in Nippert Stadium on the Cincinnati campus. Bearcats quarterback Tony Pike was 26-of-32 for 309 yards and three touchdown's and Mardy Gilyard had eight catches for 110 yards and a touchdown.

Cincinnati defeated Illinois 49-36 as an 18.5-point favorite in Week 13. The combined score went OVER the posted over/under total (59.5). Pike passed for 399 yards with six touchdown passes for Cincinnati and Ben Guidugli caught seven passes for 149 yards with two touchdowns in the win.

Pittsburgh was defeated 19-16 by West Virginia in Week 13 as a pick. The teams played UNDER the posted total of 48. Jonathan Baldwin caught eight passes for 127 yards with a touchdown in the loss.

College Football Picks: Pitt is known for wrecking its own conference national championship hopes at the end of the season and might prove the same in 2009. The Bearcats still have outside hopes of getting into the BCS championship game but must beat Pitt decisively. We don't think that will happen. Take the Panthers and the points.

Ohio vs. Central Michigan College Football Picks: The Mid America Conference divisional football winners, Ohio (East) and Central Michigan (West), will vie for the conference championship and the leagues automatic bid to the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl at Ford Field in Detroit (formerly Motor City Bowl). The Chippewa have dominated the series between the schools with a record of 24-4-1. The game will be televised nationally by ESPN2.

College football picks oddsmakers at BetUS.com expect Central Michigan (10-2, 8-0 MAC) to continue its domination of the Bobcats (9-3,7-1) especially on the strong throwing arm of Manning award finalist, Senior Quarterback Dan LeFevour.

Central Michigan is lined as a heavy 13 1/2-chalk ATS and -550 moneyline favorite versus Ohio with a 54 total. Bobcats' backers are getting +425 moneyline odds as the underdog.

LeFevour leads a prolific Central Michigan offense. The senior signal caller is tied with two other player for the most total touchdowns of any player in Bowl Subdivision history with 146. LeFevour has passed for 99 touchdowns, rushed for 46 and caught a touchdown pass during his career. Florida's Tim Tebow has the second most career total touchdowns with 140.

Ohio is 0-3 against CMU under head coach Frank Solich, including a 31-10 loss in the 2006 MAC title game and a 31-28 setback last year in Athens. The Chippewas have won 13 straight games against teams from the state of Ohio, and 17 straight against teams from the MAC East.

College Football Picks: Betting Ohio and getting the +13 1/2 points is the best bet in this game. Central Michigan should squeak by the Bobcats for a SU win but giving almost two touchdowns in points is too much to ask.

Georgia Tech vs Clemson 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions PDF Print E-mail

Georgia Tech vs Clemson 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions: The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the Clemson Tigers will meet for the second time this season when they butt heads tomorrow night at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. This time around the two conference rivals will be fighting for an ACC Championship, which neither school has ever won. The game is scheduled to get underway at 8:00pm ET on ESPN. 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions at online sportsbook BetUS.com have the contest listed as a Pick'em; the over/under has been set at 55.5.

No. 12 Georgia Tech fought its way to a 10-2 record this season and won the ACC's Coastal Division by going 7-1 in Georgia Tech vs Clemson 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictionsconference play. Unfortunately for Paul Johnson's troops, they did not end the regular season on a high-note, losing at home to non-conference rival Georgia 24-30. The defeat snapped an eight game win streak for the Yellow Jackets, but did not put their ACC title hopes in jeopardy. And that, according to defensive end Derrick Morgan, is the team's main objective.

"This is what we've been working for the last couple of years, Morgan said. "Now, we've got to get it."

The Yellow Jackets will be facing a Clemson squad that they beat earlier this year by a score of 30-27. At one point the Tigers were 2-3 on the season, but since their inauspicious start, they have won six of seven ball games to finish with an 8-4 record and 6-2 conference mark. Tallies good enough for first place in the Atlantic Division. 

Despite the team's strong finish and improved play, Head Coach Dabo Swinney knows his squad must stop Tech's explosive triple option rushing attack in order to capture its first ACC crown.

"It is critical we play physical and everybody does their job," Swinney said. "We have to tackle and everybody has to rally to the ball. We have to do a tremendous job with our eyes. We have to trust, trust what you have been coached to do. The biggest thing is to try not to give up the chunk plays. In the first game we gave up several chunk plays so we have to do a better job of that this time."

If the defense does not perform well, Swinney may be dependant upon another big effort from Heisman candidate and ACC Player of the Year C.J. Spiller. The dynamic Spiller has seven rush, four receiving, and five return touchdowns this season.

2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions Betting Trend: The Under is 8-2 in Georgia Tech's last 10 games with a total of 54.5 or more.

BetUS.com Georgia Tech vs Clemson 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions:

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (Pick), Over 55.5 (-110)

Clemson Tigers (Pick), Under 55.5 (-110)
