The Oklahoma Sooners 2010 Week 4 AP Top 25 Ranking may only be #8, but the online oddsmakers aren’t buying that number.  They’ve enlisted the Sooners as the third favorites to win the 2011 BCS Championship at 6/1 odds.  The payout:  $600 for every $100 bet.  These future betting odds were available at SBG Global. Refer your buddies to play online at SBG Global and receive 20 percent of their initial deposit.  They open an online account with $300, you get a FREE $60.  Refer as many friends as you like.  Remember, you get up to 60 percent on your own initial deposit (contingent upon how much you deposit). 

SBG Global has only made the Alabama Crimson Tide and Ohio State bigger favorites to win the title game.

“It’s actually a little bit surprising,” acknowledged Gambling911.com’s Don Shapiro. “Oklahoma was nearly knocked off by Air Force this past week, a team that was a +16 ½ underdog.”

Granted, Air Force had previously beaten two other ranked teams. 

This is the second game where Oklahoma won by 7 or less points.  Last year the Sooners were 0-4 in such games. 

They also allowed 458 yards of offense against Air Force.  The Sooners, however, did extend the FBS' longest active home win streak to 33 games.

"We're not going to score 60 points every game and the defense is not going to get a shutout every game," said the Sooners DeMarco Murray. "These kind of wins, they bring us closer together and just make us work harder."

Current odds to win the 2011 BCS Championship from SBG Global:

Ohio State 3/1

Oklahoma 6/1

Boise State +750 (pays $75 for every $10 bet)

TCU 8/1

Nebraska 10/1

Texas 12/1
