Screwed

I'm sure a lot of folks think that the Ohio State Buckeyes got screwed by a 51 day layoff last night, but I think Ron Zook is the real recipient of the screw job.

I figured Florida for a chance in last night's game based purely on conference strength. The teams of the SEC absolutely ate each other out of national contention this season, distancing themselves from the other conferences in quality. This was enough for some light action on the Gator side of the line last night, but nothing to brag about. All the hype scared me from putting any significant action down.

I think we're seeing the same thing in the NFL, but with a playoff the teams might actually beat each other up and the NFC representative, whoever it is, and it could be ANYONE of the teams still in contention, might have a shot. I doubt it as any current team from the AFC right now would be a heavy favorite vs any of the possible NFC contenders.

The Chargers or Ravens would be 6 point favorites over any NFC team.

Man, that was an ass kicking last night.
