Waco Kid's college football week 11

[The_Waco_Kid]

What is Waco Kid's Weekly College Football Review? It is an ongoing weekly review of all things College Football!!

Each week upcoming games can be discussed and predictions made, name-calling after victories and general all-around college football discussion! Each week will be closed out by the next Monday and a new thread opened for the current college football schedule for each week.

Rules -

"Rules?? We don't need no stinkin’ rules!”

Actually we do.

WKWCFR rule 1

"Lies, damn lies and statistics!"

British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli

If you quote a stat, record, 3rd down conversion rate, an all-time mark or the number of jock straps an 85-man team needs ...

Post it! If you can't post a link to it, it's bogus!
What's valid in the Internet age? Just about anything! Any of the major sports publications, local newspapers, any of the big networks and official school and NCAA sites just to cover the big ones.

WKWCFR rule 2

Predictions must be posted 1 day in advance! If you haven't read the sports page and figgured out who's going to win by the day before ya never will!

Must be time stamped before Midnight the day before game-day, for any weekly games Thur-Sun on the current weekly schedule.

So there you have it, pretty basic! You can post on general topics of your favorite teams regardless of that week's opponent. Just remember WKWCFR rule 1

i don't know if even the Vegas Sports book reports the total betting, they might. once the games are over the odds also drop off, closed. so getting them after the fact is kinda hard, i'll look into at least posting some odds sites and get a snap shot in case the link updates to current games so there's "hardcopy" in the thread.

here's several odds sites ...

Vegas Insider
http://www.vegasinsider.com/college-...dds/las-vegas/
SB Nation
http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/odds
Odds Shark
http://www.oddsshark.com/ncaaf/odds
Yahoo Sports
http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/odds

and tons more out there on the webshpere i'm sure.
