2009 CFB Preview: Rutgers

Rutgers is in the clubhouse as the favorite in the "Team Least Thought To Be Favored In Every Game" Sweepstakes. Their non-conference schedule is garbage, with Maryland going back to being Maryland, and in conference WVU, Pitt, Cincy and USF all have to come to Piscataway.



I'm not sure there is a lot of value in taking Rutgers to win the conference at +350, but it's probably better than all of the other Big East bets out there.





Unfortunately, there is no value in the total. 5Dimes has it set at 8, which occurs 21% of the time. Nine or better will hit 60% of the time. Considering the time value of money and the -225 juice, it's not worth it.
