Free Sports Betting Picks for Monday

Monday January 7, 2008
Today is the day college football fans have been waiting for, as Ohio State and LSU battle it out for the BCS Championship in New Orleans. The LSU Tigers opened as 6-point favorites and the line is down to 3.5 in most places.

Ohio State was in a similar position last year, when they were manhandled by Florida 41-14 in the championship game and will look to make amends in this spot.

The point spread looks to be about right, but I would give Ohio State the slightest of nods.

Sunday was a disappointing day for sportsbooks, as the San Diego Chargers defeated Tennessee by a score of 17-6, which was right on the closing point spread, meaning a number of bettors either won or pushed their bets if they shopped around for the best number.

Today's free pick is in college basketball and can be found at Free Sports Betting Picks in the Sports Gambing 101 section of the site.
