2011 Sun Belt Conference Football Odds, Free Picks and Expert Predictions – Sun Belt Championship Vegas Odds and Vegas Betting Lines: Vegas odds to win the 2011 Sun Belt Conference College Football Championship are now out and updated on NSAwins.com and vegas linemakers have made Florida International and Troy the 3/1 favorites to win the 2011 Sun Belt College Football Conference Championship followed by Arkansas St at 5/1 odds and Louisiana Monroe at 11/2 odds.
Although generally regarded as the weakest conference in the nation, the Sun Belt has actually had two teams win bowl games in 2011-12. In addition, the conference has been getting plenty of air time as the teams repeatedly agree to matchups against some of the nation’s elite. The road games against schools from BCS conferences have led to some embarrassing defeats, but it has also done a lot to bolster the funds available to the Sun Belt schools. More importantly, it only takes one team to catch fire and become an established program to transform a conference. The Sun Belt may be a few years away from achieving such a transformation, but the ground work is being laid.
The Favorites – 2011 Sun Belt Football Odds, Free Picks and Predictions
Winners of five straight Sun Belt titles, the Troy Trojans are used to being the top dogs. Despite some major losses at receiver and on the offensive line, a stingy Trojans’ defense should make a sixth straight conference crown a legitimate possibility. Sophomore QB Corey Robinson had all the makings of a star in his debut season, and his progression should give Troy just enough offense. Out-of-conference games against Arkansas and Clemson could prove troublesome, but the Trojans should still do damage in Sun Belt play.
One team that could five Troy’s streak a serious run for its money is Florida International. The Panthers return plenty of starters on both the offensive and defensive lines, along with T.Y. Hilton – the defending Sun Belt player of the year. The Panthers QB Wesley Carroll provides senior leadership under center, and the steadily improving Panthers could be ready to take the next step.
Potential Sleepers – 2011 Sun Belt Football Odds, Free Picks and Predictions
The toughest player to defend in the Sun Belt may be Louisiana-Monroe quarterback Kolton Browning. With his massive frame and athleticism, Browning can run over defenders and is a load to bring down out of the pocket. He also has the luxury of speedy senior wide receiver Luther Ambrose to throw to on the outside. The defense has plenty of starters of back as well, making the Warhawks a dangerous opponent for the rest of the conference, including the frontrunners.
The Sun Belt gets a little thin after the top three teams, but North Texas has one big asset working in its favor. The Mean Green has two-time conference first-team selection Lance Dunbar toting the rock, and if he can get any kind of help from his offensive line, North Texas should be able wear down opposing defenses this season. Stopping teams could be another story, and North Texas has to avoid falling behind in games in order to take full advantage of Dunbar.
Team to Avoid – 2011 Sun Belt Football Odds, Free Picks and Predictions
The Arkansas State Red Wolves have some legitimate parts on both offense and defense, but there is one glaring issue that could kill their season. The offensive line struggled last year, giving up more than 2.5 sacks per game. Worse yet, a majority of the starters from last year’s unit graduated. The inexperienced line will likely be even worse than the previous group, which could sabotage everything the Red Wolves try to do on offense.
