We’ve got the most compelling pro and college matchups leading off our weekly list of the top betting attractions; all times are Eastern, and updated lines are available at the Bodog online sportsbook.

Sports Games to Bet on – November 18th Edition

Scratch one more sport off the betting list. Jimmie Johnson has won NASCAR’s top prize for the third year in a row, taking the Sprint Cup in somewhat anticlimactic fashion by finishing 15th at Sunday’s Ford 400. Johnson only needed to place 36th or better to clinch the title. Cale Yarborough (1976-77-78) is the only other driver to pull off the three-peat.

Sports Betting Games of the Week – November 12

A post-election lull has swept over the United States. All those man-hours spent fixated on polls and pundits have to be diverted elsewhere. Excellent timing, because college basketball is here. Preseason tournaments are underway; there are a lot of cupcakes on the menu, but this is when sharp handicappers swoop in and get fat.

Sports Betting Games of the Week – November 4 

The 2008 baseball season ended in October after all. We hope yours was a profitable one – a special shout-out to all those Phillies supporters out there who filled their bankrolls with a 13-3 run to end the regular season and an 11-3 record in the playoffs. It’s all about finishing strong, as fans of the New York Mets (7-10 down the stretch) can attest.

He was 10 seconds away from a 3-1 Saturday in college football last weekend but instead he had to settle for a mediocre 2-2 day.

With just over two minutes remaining, the UCLA Bruins drove the field for a 23-20 comeback win over the Stanford Cardinal. The comeback thwarted Cras’ chances of the winning weekend he needed to turn around his college season.
