NCAA Football Bowl Betting & Matchups
- 2008 New Mexico Bowl
-
The Bowl Season is right around the corner and sports betting fans had better get their online betting shoes on because things start with the New Mexico Bowl! Won by host the New Mexico Lobos in 2007, this Bowl Game pits a team from the WAC versus a team from the Mountain West Conference! Who’s projected to battle it out in this year’s New Mexico Bowl? It could be Louisiana Tech vs. Colorado State or Fresno State vs. Air Force or a combination of two of these four teams.
- 2008 St. Petersburg Bowl
-
The St. Petersburg Bowl didn’t exist in 2007 but it does in 2008 and sports betting fans can get down on the action! The St. Petersburg Bowl will showcase a team from the Big East and Conference USA. This year it’s projected that Southern Miss will represent the team from Conference USA while either Connecticut Huskies or the Pittsburgh Panthers will represent the team from the Big East.
- 2008 Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl
-
In 2007 the Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl was all about the BYU Cougars as they beat the UCAL Bruins by a single point. UCLA won’t be in the 2008 Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl game but neither will be the BYU Cougars. Usually a match-up between a strong team from the Mountain West Conference and an equally tough team from the Pac-10 this year’s Las Vegas Bowl might showcase TCU vs. Arizona.
- 2008 Eagle Bank Bowl
-
Another first time bowl game with no history in 2007, the 2008 Eagle Bank Bowl figures to be a clash of wills as a team from the ACC will take on an automatic bid Navy team. Which ACC team will sports betting fans have to decide to place a wager on in this bowl game? It could be either North Carolina State for Clemson.
- 2008 R+L Carrier New Orleans Bowl
-
Last year the Florida Atlanta Owls decimated the Memphis Tigers 44 to 27. Could the 2008 version of the R+L Carrier New Orleans Bowl provide sports betting fans with the same outcome? It’s not likely as the Memphis Tigers from Conference USA figure to make it again, but the Sun Belt team this time around figures to be either Troy or Louisiana-Lafayette.
- 2008 San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl
-
The Poinsettia Bowl has been the highlight of the early bowl season for a long time and 2007 was no exception as the Utah Utes took it to Navy by a score of 35 to 32. Utah won’t be in the 2008 Poinsettia and neither will be Navy. Instead, sports betting fans should look for either BYU vs. Nevada or Colorado State vs. Nevada. Nevada figures to go to this bowl for sure.
- 2008 Sheraton Hawaii Bowl
-
In 2007 the East Carolina Pirates provided one of the shockers of the Bowl Season by taking down the Boise State Broncos 41 to 38. The 2008 version of the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl figures to be somewhat different as the Hawaii Warriors will host either the Buffalo or Arizona State. It’s been a down year for Hawaii. Could you recoup some of that 2007 magic for online sports betting fans by winning the 2008 Sheraton Hawaii Bowl?
- 2008 Motor City Bowl
-
Purdue beat Central Michigan by a score of 51 to 48 in the 2007 Motor City Bowl. It was a sports betting fan’s dream as the BetUS online sportsbook went over with ease. Will the same occur in 2008?

- 2008 Meineke Car Care Bowl
-
A traditional class between a team from the Big East and a team from the ACC, in 2007 sports betting fans were treated to the Wake Forest Demon Deacons and a 24 to 10 victory over the UConn Huskies. The 2008 Meineke Car Care Bowl should pit either West Virginia or South Florida versus the 25th ranked North Carolina Tar Heels.
- 2008 Champs Sports Bowl
-
The 2007 Champs Sports Bowl was all about Boston College and Matt Ryan as the BC Eagles took it to the Michigan State Spartans 24 to 21. In 2008 the Champs Sports Bowl should be one of the more interesting games of the entire Bowl Season as sports betting fans should be able to make an online bet on a game between Georgia Tech and Iowa or Virginia Tech and Iowa.
2008 Emerald BowlHeld in the beautiful state of Washington, the 2007 Emerald Bowl went to the Oregon State Beavers who handed the Maryland Terrapins a humiliating 21 to 14 loss. The same won’t happen this season as sports betting fans should be looking at a match-up between Fresno State and Miami or Arizona and Wake Forest
- 2008 Independence Bowl
-
The Independence Bowl usually pits a team from the SEC Conference versus a team from the Big-12 Conference. In 2007 the Alabama Crimson Tide padded sports betting fans’ pockets by taking down the Colorado Buffalos. This year it’s all about the Sun Belt as either Louisiana-Lafayette or Florida Atlantic figure to take on the Kansas Jayhawks from the Big-12.
- 2008 Papajohns.com Bowl
-
In 2007 the Cincinnati Bearcats took down the Southern Miss Golden Eagles by a score of 31 to 21. Which teams will BetUS online sportsbook betting fans get to make an online bet on in this bowl game? It could be Rutgers versus Florida Atlantic or Troy. Only time will tell!
- 2008 Valero Alamo Bowl

- 2008 Roady’s Humanitarian Bowl
-
The Fresno State Bulldogs played a masterful game in 2007 by rewarding sports betting fans with a 40 to 28 victory over the Georgia Tech Yellowjackets. The 2008 Roady’s Humanitarian Bowl should be another great match-up as the Boise State Broncos figure to take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons or the Maryland Terrapins.
- 2008 Texas Bowl
-
A match-up between a Big-12 and Conference USA team, the 2007 Texas Bowl went to the TCU Horned Frogs when they beat the Houston Cougars 20 to 13. Sports Betting fans should be thinking about a game between South Florida and Houston or Louisiana Tech and East Carolina in the 2008 Texas Bowl.
- 2008 Pacific Life Holiday Bowl
-
This is the bowl game that signals the beginning of the best in the Bowl Season! Pitting a team from the Pac-10 versus a team from the Big-12, the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl has always been a highlight. In 2007 the Texas Longhorns took down the Arizona State Sun Devils. Sports betting fans will relish either one of these projected match-ups for 2008 - - California vs. Oklahoma State or Oregon vs. Missouri.
- 2008 Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl
-
In 2007 the Cal Golden Bears beat Air Force by a score of 42 to 36. In 2008 sports betting fans should be treated to a game between Air Force and Rice or Brigham Young and Rice. Either match-up could provide positive dividends for online college football betting fans!
- 2008 Brut Sun Bowl
-
Held in El Paso, Texas, the Sun Bowl has always been one of the most anticipated non-BCS bowls of the year! In 2007 sports betting fans got to watch as the Oregon Ducks decimated the South Florida Bulls 56 to 21. This season BetUS online sportsbook betting fans could be watching a match-up between Oregon and Notre Dame or Cal and Notre Dame.
- 2008 Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl
-
The Kentucky Wildcats rocked Florida States’ world in 2007 by beating the Seminoles 35 to 28. Sports betting fans will be treated to a different match-up in the 2008 Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl as the Kentucky Wildcats will defend their 2007 title against either the Maryland Terrapins or Miami Hurricanes.
- 2008 Insight Bowl
-
In 2007 the Oklahoma State Cowboys dazzled the sports betting world by thumping the Indiana Hoosiers 49 to 33. That shouldn’t be the case in the 2008 Insight Bowl as the game figures to be a battle between Minnesota and Kansas or Nebraska and Wisconsin.
- 2008 Chick-fil-A Bowl
-
The Auburn Tigers beat the Clemson Tigers in the 2007 version of the Chick-fil-A-Bowl in overtime by a score of 23 to 20. Sports betting fans should think about LSU vs. Boston College in this bowl game. That’s the match-up that will require an online bet from college football betting fans!
- 2008 Outback Bowl
-
2007 saw a classic Outback Bowl as the Tennesee Volunteers beat the Wisconsin Badgers 21 to 17. Neither team figures to make it to the 2008 version but sports betting fans shouldn’t fret as Michigan State and South Carolina figure to put on a show in the 2008 Outback Bowl.
- 2008 Capital One Bowl
-
What a game in 2007 as the heavily favored Florida Gators lost straight-up to the Michigan Wolverines. Will the 2008 Capital One Bowl provide the same shocker to sports betting fans as 2007 did? Probably not if the projected match-up of Georgia and Ohio State takes place. Both pre-season BCS favorites will be trying to salvage a disappointing season.
- 2008 Konica Minolta Gator Bowl
-
The high-flying Red Raiders of Texas Tech won a hard fought game against the Virginia Cavaliers in the 2007 Konica Minolta Gator Bowl by a score of 31 to 28.

- 2008 AT&T Cotton Bowl
-
One of the classics of the Bowl Season, the Cotton Bowl saw the Missouri Tigers dominate the Arkansas Razorbacks 38 to 7 in 2007. For sports betting fans things won’t get much better than a match-up between the Texas Tech Red Raiders and the SEC Conference Ole Miss Rebels. Ole Miss has proven to be a tough customer and the Red Raiders are reeling from a thumping at the hands of the Oklahoma Sooners. This should be a good online betting game!
- 2008 Autozone Liberty Bowl
-
The Liberty Bowl matches up a team from the Conference USA and the SEC. In 2007 it was all about Mississippi State as they took down UCF in a less than interesting 10 to 3 game. In 2008 sports betting fans should definitely be looking at more scoring as Pittsburgh or Connecticut figure to take on the Western Michigan
- 2008 GMAC Bowl
-
Tulsa absolutely wholloped Bowling Green in 2007 by beating Bowling Green 63 to 7. What could happen in 2008?

Online betting fans should find a good bet in this one as either match-up figures to be a close game.
- 2008 Rose Bowl Presented by Citi
-
The granddaddy of them all will be without the USC Trojans and Illinois Illini in 2008. In 2007 Illinois came into the Rose Bowl as were squashed by USC 49 to 17.

Stay tuned sports betting fans!
- 2008 FedEx Orange Bowl
-
In 2007 the Kansas Jayhawks punctuated an incredible season by beating the Virginia Tech Hokies 24 to 21. The 2008 FedEx Orange Bowl figures to be just as good as either Virginia Tech or the Florida State Seminoles figure to take on the Cincinnati Bearcats. Sports betting fans will be watching with interest to see if Coach Bobby Bowden can get another Orange Bowl victory out for Florida State.
- 2008 All-State Sugar Bowl
-
2007 saw one of the biggest thumpings in Sugar Bowl history as the Georgia Bulldogs routed the Hawaii Warriors 41 to 10. Neither Hawaii nor Georgia will be in the 2008 Sugar Bowl. Instead, the projected loser of the SEC Championship game, either Florida or Alabama, figures to go to this game to take on the Utah Utes. Sports betting fans will need to do their homework as Utah hasn’t faced a team even close to the caliber of Alabama or Florida but an undefeated season, like Utah figures to get, is an undefeated season!
- 2008 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl
-
Last year’s 2008 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl went to the West Virginia Mountaineers as they dominated Oklahoma 48 to 28. This year’s Tostitos could see the Oklahoma Sooners again as the loser of the Big-12 Championship, between Texas and Oklahoma, figures to end up in the BCS Bowl. Sports betting fans should be able to guess that the other team will be the USC Trojans. USC versus Texas or USC versus Oklahoma. It doesn’t figure to get any better than that!
- 2008 BCS Championship Game
-
The LSU Fighting Tigers had no issues in last year’s BCS Championship game by beating the Ohio State Buckeyes 38 to 24. What will the 2008 BCS Championship Game bring to sports betting fans? The match-ups look exhilarating as the winner of the SEC Championship Game, either Alabama or Florida, figures to take on the winner of the Big-12 Championship Game, either Texas or Oklahoma. Any combination of Alabama or Florida versus Texas or Oklahoma should yield a plethora of online betting opportunities! It’s going to be hard for BetUS online sportsbook betting fans to wait for this one!
