2009 BCS Odds

Bet the 2009 BCS National Championship
The Favorite: USC Trojans
It’s no surprise that USC is once again a heavy favorite to win the BCS National Championship Game given their immense talent and schedule. Playing the Pac 10 awards the Trojans arguably an easier road than those programs that have to battle the rigorous SEC. USC also boasts one of the best defenses, lead by defensive tackle Fili Moala and linebackers Rey Maualuga and Brian Cushing.
The Values: Florida Gators, Georgia Bulldogs, Ohio State Buckeyes, Oklahoma Sooners
Oddsmakers also like the Florida Gators chances of making it back to the national championship, and have made Urban Meyer’s program a 6/1 favorite. The Gators own arguably the best player in the nation with quarterback Tim Tebow, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner. Florida plays in the tough SEC, but the program is incredibly talented and well coached.
One program all the pundits seem to love is the Georgia Bulldogs, who boast one of the nation’s top quarterbacks in Matthew Stafford. Oddsmakers have also made the Bulldogs 6/1 favorites and although they have a tough schedule, their offense looks primed to make noise with Stafford and Heisman Trophy candidate Knowshon Moreno in the backfield.
Can the Ohio State Buckeyes make it three BCS National Championship appearances in a row? They haven’t won the past two years, but the Buckeyes once again look like the top team in the Big Ten and probably won’t get a ton of competition from rivals Michigan, who appear to be in a down year. Ohio State has one of the best offensive lines in football and their defense, led by NFL prospect James Laurinaitis, should be once again outstanding.
The Oklahoma Sooners looked poised to make a BCS National Championship run last year before fading late. Bob Stoops’ program always has one of the best defenses in the nation and the offensive line, led by Phil Loadholt and Duke Robinson, is also tops in college football.
