Titans Leaves Tebow Against Falcons

Football Betting Lines

A trade association editor at an area publishing company, the giddy 25-year- old spends much of her free time primping, preening and planning for an upcoming April wedding. But while she admits to not knowing a zone blitz from a Coach purse, into even her life a little Tebow must fall.

 

As emphasis, in a cubicle stacked with photos, bridal books and workflow calendars, she motioned toward two desktop screen savers - one showing a helmeted Tebow's bulging left arm in mid-throw, and another with the buff 24- year-old shirtless and smiling after a workout.

 

Though it was worn this year by anonymous freshman cornerback Loucheiz Purifoy, the blue-and-orange No. 15 made famous over Tebow's four Florida seasons remains a hot ticket in myriad sports shops and department stores across Gainesville, not to mention en masse in the Swamp on game days.

 

And a signature sight after the school's summer or winter commencement ceremonies: Diploma-toting graduates, still clad in caps and gowns, kneeling at the statue's base for photos that let Tebow share in their big-day memories.

 

And while some outsiders cringe at the devotion, to him it's all good.

 

"I tell my wife all the time it is like watching my little brother play every Sunday."

 

Their hero's next chance at a miracle comes Saturday night in Foxborough, where most people are convinced he'll need exactly that to help the Broncos defeat their top-seeded opponents in the AFC playoffs - Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.

 

"I like 15, but 12's (Brady) pretty good." he said, admitting Tebow's pass to Demaryius Thomas against Pittsburgh last week had him "just shakin' my head."

 

Of course, the true believers will point out the Steelers were nine-point picks last week.

Big East Conference odds

Work left to do: Villanova, Syracuse, DePaul, West Virginia, Providence

Notre Dame and Louisville appear to have done enough to make the move, so we'll make them locks. The Cardinals, despite a modest RPI, are trending way up and have clinched at least a tie for third in the Big East, which should be more than enough with their pair of big road wins. Villanova got back to .500 and gets back to more solid footing. Syracuse got a very important road win and crippled a fellow contender in the process. West Virginia's fate could be in its hands Tuesday at Pitt.

Work left to do:

Villanova [18-9 (7-7), RPI: 21, SOS: 5] Pounded Rutgers to get back to .500. If Cats can get their last two (at UConn, vs. Syracuse), that should be enough with strong computer numbers and a host of wins away from The Pavilion. The Cats have beaten Texas and swept the Big 5 (never easy in Philly), but have a couple of losses to bubble teams (Xavier, Drexel), too. I still think they'll be OK, possibly even at 8-8.

Syracuse [20-8 (9-5), RPI: 53, SOS: 62] History says 10 wins will be plenty, but it might be hard for the Orange to get that last one with a final two vs. G'town, which is trying to win the league title, and at Villanova, which will be desperate for a W. The relative lack of nonconference heft and the weak computer numbers are still concerns, but the Orange have won four in a row and got a very, very big win at Providence on Saturday.

DePaul [16-12 (8-7), RPI: 54, SOS: 18] Beat Cincy and should get past South Florida to get to 9-7, but then what? They have beaten Kansas and Cal (right after the DeVon Hardin injury) earlier this season, but also have lost to Bradley and Purdue, among others. They'll likely need a couple of BE tourney wins, too, but we'll see ...

West Virginia [19-7 (8-6), RPI: 58, SOS: 125] The game at Pitt on Tuesday night could decide the Mountaineers' fate (barring a deep tournament run). They can still get to 9-7 in the Big East without it by beating Cincinnati, but the nine wins would be against UConn, Villanova, St. John's, South Florida, DePaul, Rutgers, Seton Hall twice and the Bearcats. Beating bubble foes is fine, but where's the beef? Outside of beating PG-less UCLA in nonconference play (still a top quality win), there's not a lot to fall back on (besides maybe NC State). WVU vs. Syracuse would be an interesting debate, as the teams don't play in the Big East regular season. WVU has the best win, but Cuse has played the much better schedule.

Providence [17-10 (7-7), RPI: 70, SOS: 33] The Friars likely saw their at-large hopes die at home in the four-point loss to Syracuse, barring an unexpected run to the Big East semis or more. The RPI, bad already, won't be helped by playing St. John's and South Florida in the final two league games.
