UCLA and Stanford square off this Friday night with the Pac-12 championship at stake. If the match-up looks familiar, it's because it is. The two teams played last Saturday, so it will be their second game in a week, a rare feat indeed. Stanford had the clear edge there, winning 35-17. Will it be a repeat performance for the Cardinal, or will the Bruins find a way to pull off the upset and settle the score?
Not many people would have had these two games in the Pac-12 title game this year. If you

Monday Night Football: Carolina vs. Philadelphia Picks, Predictions & Odds
This year in the NFL, there has been a number of primetime games which have just been pretty awful.

Green Bay Packers vs. New York Giants Picks, Predictions & Odds
The Sunday night primetime showdown this weekend features the Green Bay Packers vs. the New York Giants. It's a rematch of the postseason last year, where the Giants picked up a huge upset road victory to survive and eventually win the Super Bowl. They also met last year in New York, with the Giants giving the then juggernaut Packers a tough game before losing late. These are the last two champions in the league, and it's a high profile match featuring some of the NFL's biggest names. Take a look at what

Notre Dame vs. USC Picks, Predictions & Odds
If you looked at this game in the preseason, you probably imagined the roles would be reversed. The undefeated USC Trojans would be playing a respectable opponent they were supposed to beat en route to their championship game appearance. Instead, the Fighting Irish are sitting at 11-0 and at number 1 in the country, and a win here puts them in the title game. The preseason number 1 Trojans have completely dropped out of the polls, the first ever preseason number 1 to have that happen.

LSU Tigers vs. Arkansas Razorbacks Picks, Predictions & Odds
Heading into the last game of the season for the LSU Tigers, and despite their preseason controversies and chaos, and despite a few close losses, they're rated as the number 8 team in the country. They'll miss out on the SEC championship game, but depending on how things shake out elsewhere, could still be in a top BCS bowl. They'll travel to Arkansas to close the show on their 2012 campaign.

Week 13 College Football Picks, Predictions & Odds
With the regular season reaching its close, the college football landscape looks radically different than it did a few weekends ago, and much different than anybody putting down wagers would have guessed at the start of the year. USC has dropped out of the polls, and Notre Dame is number 1 for the first time in decades. BCS favorites are dropping by the handful here, and now a few teams have the inside track to lock things up and reach the championship game. Here's a look at the week 13 college football

New England Patriots vs. New York Jets Picks, Predictions & Odds
The AFC East rivalry between the New England Patriots and the New York Jets takes center stage on Thanksgiving night, as the Patriots travel to New York to play the Jets. Before the season began, this game was probably a bit more intriguing than it is right now, thanks to the general down season the Jets have been having, moving between awful and mediocre depending on the week.
New England is certainly looking like one of the best teams in the AFC, and the entire league, right now. They absolutely

Week 12 NFL Picks: Washington Redskins vs. Dallas Cowboys Predictions & Odds
One of the great historic rivalries in football gets renewed this week, as the Washington Redskins visit the Dallas Cowboys. And what a better time for Redskins vs. Cowboys than Thanksgiving day? As odd as it is, both teams are technically alive in the NFC East race, thanks to a struggling New York Giants team that seems headed straight down at this point. So will Robert Griffin III lead his team to another big divisional win here, or will Tony Romo continue his winning ways in the month of

Baltimore Ravens vs Pittsburgh Steelers Picks, Predictions & Odds
One of the NFL's very best rivalries takes center stage this weekend in prime time on Sunday night. The Baltimore Ravens visit the Pittsburgh Steelers in what is always a bruising, hard fought and close affair. The AFC North is tightly packed right now and there's a lot at stake, but the banged up Steelers aren't getting any breaks as the bad news has come out that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will miss the game with his shoulder injury.

College Football Picks Week 12: Stanford Cardinal vs Oregon Ducks Predictions & Odds
The biggest college football game of the weekend takes place in the Pac-12 when the Stanford Cardinal visit the Oregon Ducks. Stanford is currently number 14 in the nation, with an 8-2 record and a few very nice wins on its resume. Oregon, of course, has soared to the top of the polls at number 1 after Alabama's surprise loss, and now sit at 10-0 and control their own destiny as far as a trip to the national title game is concerned.

Ohio State Buckeyes vs Wisconsin Badgers Picks, Predictions & Odds
If you had projected the Ohio State Buckeyes to be 10-0 and at number 6 in the polls with the season winding down under their first year with Urban Meyer, you'd already have made quite a bit of money on the season. Ohio State has steadfastly turned back the competition and continued winning. Of course, being ineligible for postseason play this year, they're not quite playing for keeps.

North Carolina Tar Heels vs Virginia Cavaliers Picks, Predictions & Odds
In this week's ESPN Thursday night college football showcase, the 6-4 North Carolina Tar Heels pay a visit to the 4-6 Virginia Cavaliers. Rivals in the lowly Coastal division of the ACC, North Carolina actually still has an outside chance at winning the division and getting a bid for the conference championship game. If they win here and next week against Maryland, they would finish at 5-3 in the conference, and could position themselves at the top of the heap on the strength of tiebreakers.

Miami Dolphins vs Buffalo Bills Picks, Predictions & Odds
The unfortunate trend of uninspiring primetime match-ups for the NFL continues this week, as the Miami Dolphins make a visit to Buffalo to play the Bills. Neither team is in playoff contention, and while Buffalo had been the worse of the two all season long, Miami got absolutely embarrassed this past weekend by the Titans. So how will things shake out here in week 11 between the Dolphins and Bills?

Monday Night Football: Kansas City vs Pittsburgh Picks, Predictions & Odds
This week's Monday Night Football match-up isn't exactly all that inspiring. While the Steelers are always one of the big draws thanks to their huge fan base, they're lined up here with the awful Kansas City Chiefs. They have been seemingly in a class of their own this season, bringing up the rear as likely the worst team in the league. That means that you shouldn't expect all too much drama from the Steelers vs. the Chiefs this Monday.

Houston Texans vs Chicago Bears Picks, Predictions & Odds
Some of the NFL's primetime games this season haven't quite been so hot. Disappointing teams and uninteresting matches have sometimes taken over what is supposed to be home to the best games of the weekend. Well, this Sunday night, it's as good as it gets. The Houston Texans visit the Chicago Bears in what should be an excellent showdown, and a chance for two potential Super Bowl contenders to show their stuff to the entire league, and the nation.

Pittsburgh Panthers vs Connecticut Huskies Picks, Predictions & Odds
In the weekly primetime Big East spotlight game, with two teams nobody generally cares to see, the Pittsburgh Panthers travel to UConn to play the Huskies. Each team has a losing record, but luckily, there are actually a few teams doing well in the conference this year, so there's no risk of one of these schools going on a short winning streak and ending up atop the conference. That much, at least, can be praised this season, with thanks to Louisville and Rutgers. Here's a look at what to expect with the

Indianapolis Colts vs Jacksonville Jaguars Picks, Predictions & Odds
The AFC South heats up with this divisional rivalry game in primetime on Thursday night, as the Indianapolis Colts visit the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well, not quite. While the Colts have been perhaps the greatest story of the season thanks to what's going on behind the scenes with their head coach, the Jaguars have consistently been one of the worst teams across the entire league. So, what can you expect as Andrew Luck and company head to Jacksonville to take on the Jaguars?

The Dallas Cowboys visit the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday night in the week's primetime showdown. The Cowboys will be looking to salvage their season before it spirals out of control. However, they won't have an easy task in front of them, with the NFL's sole remaining undefeated team, the 7-0 Atlanta Falcons, and potential MVP candidate Matt Ryan. So does Atlanta hold to form here, or do the Cowboys pull off a season saving upset victory?

Alabama Crimson Tide vs LSU Tigers Picks, Predictions & Odds
This is going to be a good one folks. Number 1 Alabama, the undefeated, defending national champions who have been steamrolling everybody, travel down to Baton Rouge to take on the LSU Tigers. LSU has maneuvered themselves into a 7-1 record and a top 5 ranking of their own. This might not be the number 1 vs number 2 showdown that we saw in the middle of last season, but it's a great game nonetheless, and the stakes couldn't be higher.

Virginia Tech Hokies vs Miami Hurricanes Picks, Predictions & Odds
The big Thursday night college football game of the weekend takes us to the ACC. Two heavyweight programs are lining up across the field from one another, with the Virginia Tech Hokies traveling to Miami to play the Hurricanes, an appropriate primetime game given the weather across the east coast for the past week. Still, the Hokies vs. the Hurricanes is not the match-up that most people would have projected at the start of the year, as each team has struggled and sits at a disappointing 4-4 on the
Week 9 NFL Picks: Kansas City Chiefs vs San Diego Chargers Predictions & Odds
The NFL's week 9 match-up features the Kansas City Chiefs on the road visiting their divisional rivals, the San Diego Chargers. Unfortunately for the fans and for the league, it's not exactly a compelling game. The Chiefs have looked atrocious and may be the worst team in football right now.
