Friday's College Football Play of the Day: Oregon

With a 31.5 line, there are people saying you would be crazy to take the Oregon Ducks and give that many points in a conference title game.

I'm not one of them.  I would take Oregon if the line was 40.

The Ducks have really come on throughout the year.  Heck they blew out this opponent in UCLA by 47 earlier in the year.

It's UCLA who are the "ducks" tonight.  I mean sitting ducks as Oregon will be throwing the ball all over the place.  And speaking of more "ducks", UCLA's Rick Neuheisel is a lame duck as head coach.

Take Oregon and give the points for a win tonight.

College Bowl Play of the Day: BCS Championship Game

Oregon vs. Auburn

This is what it all comes down to, Oregon and Auburn for the BCS Championship.

The teams are undefeated, Cam Newton has been the most talked about player in college football this season and won the Heisman Trophy. Auburn has several factors working in its favor.  The SEC hasn’t – in six tries - lost a BCS title when it has sent one of its teams to the big game. The conference has also covered the number in each of those games.  The Tigers are 4-0 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.    They also are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite.  Strong trends.

Oregon has some favorable trends as well, but with the line only being Auburn -1.5 I have to say "War Eagle" this time.

Oregon is a fine team and an exciting team to watch.  I look for a good game for about a half then Auburn pulls away.  Take Auburn.
