My 2008 College Football Bets

Here's what I'm putting money on. We'll revisit these at the end of the year. Unless, of course, they're colossal failures. In which case, they'll be neatly swept under the rug. Feel free to ridicule them. If you'd like to post your own, use the following links:

Futures Bets

Team Prop Bets

Colorado: Over 5.5 wins (-150) - $10
Iowa: Under 7 wins (+120) - $10
Kansas: Under 7.5 wins (-130) - $10
Washington: Over 6 wins (+230) - $10

Player Prop Bets

Percy Harvin: Win Heisman (20/1) - $5
Pat White: Win Heisman (10/1) - $5

Team Futures Bets

Auburn: Win National Title (35/1) - $10
Clemson: Win National Title (22/1) - $10
Texas Tech: Win Big 12 (7/1) - $10
Virginia Tech : Win National Title (20/1) - $10
Wake Forest: Win National Title (100/1) - $10

Total wagered: $100

Here's the best I can do:
All four team props: $89.40
Harvin wins Heisman: $110.00
Wake Forest wins MNC: $1,110.00
Texas Tech wins B12: $80.00
Subtotal: $1,289.40
Minus lost bets: (-$35.00)
Total: $1,254.40

Of course, that's before the casino takes its cut. It would still be a nice little payoff, though.
