Grab the remote and stock up on the chips. Today is a return to the madness known as college football Saturday. While not all teams are in action, there are enough games being played for bettors to make a full day of it.

The linesmakers have actually done a pretty good job, considering some pointspreads were released over a month ago and the line movement hasn't been as great as it could have been. Still, there are several games where there was decent movement, and there will likely be more in the hours leading to game time, as sports services release their plays.

Wyoming has been a favorite team of bettors today, as the Cowboys have gone from -10 to -13 over Ohio and the total on the game has dropped from 54.5 to 49. The total in the Florida game has dropped from 72 to 67.5, while the total in the Virginia Tech has gone from 50 to 45. The total in the USC game has dropped four points and is now at 42.5

One big line move has been in the Nebraska game, where the Cornhuskers are now favored by 14.5 after opening as 13-point favorites. While that is only a 1.5-point move, it's noteworthy for the fact that the key numbers of 13 and 14 points were involved. Bookmakers will not move games past two key numbers if possible, as they are setting themselves up for disaster should Nebraska happen to win by two touchdowns.

Today's college football plays are up and can be found at Free Sports Betting Picks located in the Sports Gambling 101 section of the site.
