Betting Jinx hits the College Bowls....poor Boise State backers.

The betting jinx can appear in may different ways....A fumbe late in a game, a horrible call by a ref, a field goal bouncing off the post or a "pick 6" when your team has the game put away. Sunday night, Boise State experienced a betting jinx one year in the making. Remember that unbelieveable Oklahoma vs. Boise State bowl last year....well so did everyone who bet Boise State Sunday night.

Boise State -10.5 vs. East Carolina Sunday night in the Hawaii Bowl looked like easy money to many football bettors. This is due the "Public Perception" betting jinx that is the main reason why bookies will always beat "joe public".

The average peron who paricipates in football betting does not have the time to dig into the all the College Bowl game previews and picks/predictions that are available for every game. All they can do is go by some simple stats, W/L records and the public perception they have of a team. With 80% of people betting this bowl game Sunday night taking Boise State, the people "in the know" jumped all over East Carolina. With a 41-38 final giving East Carolina the win, the "public perception" betting jinx struck again.

The Cleveland Browns are playoff bound!!!!!

With Phil Dawson kicking 49 yeard field goals in blinding snow storms, this Browns team has to be considered a "dark horse" in the AFC playoffs. They can run the ball well, pass efficiently and kick the crap out of the ball. Unfortunately, there defense needs to hope for a blizzard every week of the playoffs to keep it close.

Dawson uses the crossbar again!

Yes, if the season ended today, the Beloved Purple would STILL be on the outside of the NFL's post-season looking in. The reason? Well, in a 3-way tiebreaker between us, the Cardinals, and the Lions, the Lions currently sit ahead of us based on a superior division record, as you can see above. However, once the tie between us and Detroit is broken, Arizona's head-to-head victory over Detroit a few weeks back gives them the advantage there. So right now, the Vikings occupy the #4 position in what's turned into a 9-team race. . .although the Giants helped distance themselves a little bit with their victory over Chicago yesterday.

We have a new entry into the 5-7 mix from last week, as the Carolina Panthers have springboarded from out of the playoff picture to just behind the Vikings in the mix. Tampa Bay has basically sewn up the NFC South already, so the Panthers are fighting for a wild-card spot just like the Vikings are. I'm sure the Panthers won't mind going on the road for the playoffs if they get in. . .yesterday they won their first home game in more than one calendar year when they knocked off San Francisco. . .who the Vikings just happen to be matched up against next week. The advantage that Carolina has at this point is that even though they're 5-7, they have a winning record against the NFC.

As far as New Orleans goes. . .well, if they miss out on the playoffs by one game, they're going to wonder why in the hell they were running reverses at midfield with under four minutes left to play. Hell, they ought to be wondering that anyway.

Washington is still hard to handicap at this point, but it's going to be interesting to see how they react to the quick turnaround, as on Thursday night they'll play host to. . .

The Chicago Bears, whose undoing is going to be their abysmal record against the NFC. Chicago has to run the table just to get to .500 within the conference, the fact that they could easily end up 1-5 against the division not withstanding.

I won't handicap Detroit either, because if their performance yesterday and their upcoming schedule are any indication, you can pretty much stick a fork in the Lions. Oh, and Roy Williams is going to miss the rest of their season, too. Yeah, I'm not all that concerned about any potential tie-breaker scenarios that involve the Lions.

As far as Philly is concerned? Well, they've got a quarterback problem. McNabb is hurt, and apparently the majority of Philadelphia hates him anyway. The problem with that is the fact that A.J. Feeley is. . .well, he's A.J. Feeley. I'm starting to wonder if the Eagles wouldn't be better off putting 2nd round pick Kevin Kolb out there for the last few games of the year. They have a lot of ground to make up, and I'm not sure if they can do it, so why not give the kid a shot?

The most important thing is that the Vikings pretty much control their own destiny. The two "easiest" remaining schedules in the NFL, if I remember correctly. . .and keep in mind, in the NFL "easy" doesn't always mean "easy". . .currently belong to Arizona and Minnesota. If they can continue winning, one of those two wild-card spots is theirs for the taking. It's going to be an interesting last four weeks of the regular season, folks. . .hopefully the marked improvement we've seen from the Beloved Purple the past few weeks continues so that we can get ourselves a date with either Seattle or Tampa Bay that first weekend in January.

Betting jinx stuck it to Steelers/Bengals bettors who took the "OVER" Sunday Night

You really have to feel bad for anyone that had the OVER Sunday night. The field in Pittsburg was in much better shape then most people thought and the people who took the contrarian bet of Over 40 should have been rewarded.

With less then 3 minutes to go in the game the Bengals drove down the field to the Steelers 3 yard line for 4 shots at the endzone. On 2nd dowm a beautiful fade pass to the corner of the endzone by Carson Palmer looked to be the sure shot the OVER bettors needed. The refs ruled the pass incomplete due to the receiver not getting 2 feet in bounds. Countless replays by NBC showed a different story, but for some reason the Bengals coaching staff did not challenge the call. 3rd down brought about a clear touchdown drop in the endzone. Bringing all "OVER" bettors to pray for a 4th down miracle score. An incomplete pass ended all hopes and dreams and the cash the bettors began to spend in their heads was now gone for good due to the betting jinx that is alive and well in the NFL.
