There's a lot going on in my house right now... but there's a lot going on in online sports betting, too.

On this week's podcast, we stan for a college football team from the great state of Tennessee... and it's probably not the one you think. Stand up, Skyhawks!FIRST: More crappy NFL odds on Thursday Night Football, as the New Orleans Saints head to Arizona to play the Cardinals.

Troy (+3) heads to South Alabama in a game with *huge* Sun Belt championship implications.THEN: My five best bets from the Week 8 College Football slate, including contrarian favorites at Baylor and Clemson.LATER: The NFL picks have had several straight winning weeks at this point, and I see no reason they'll slow down with another sharp card for this weekend.
