All year, we've picked seven college football games a week against the spread. These games have been an interesting mix of important and not important, with the generally crucial distinction that they be interesting for gambling purposes. This isn't a gambling site, and we don't advocate gambling, but Vegas sports books do a very good job of getting a general sense of which teams are going to do what on any given Saturday. Their point spreads, even for games whose outcomes are pretty obvious, are designed to be pretty difficult for the average fan to wager against. We're not average fans around here (we're bloggers, which is way worse), but even we had difficulty picking against the spread with any sort of consistency.
