Thought we already had one of these, but I can't seem to find it. Bama-Michigan the headliner of the weekend obviously. A few other interesting games include MSU-Boise State on Friday night, Penn State-Ohio is interesting given the Sandusky mess and Ohio is projected to be good. Season kicks off tonight with S.Carolina-Vandy.
Floyd Mayweather loves him some Michigan +14
Floyd Mayweather bet $3 million on Alabama-Michigan game?

Do you like Michigan +14 vs. Alabama in the Cowboys Classic on Saturday? Floyd Mayweather apparently does … so much so that he’s allegedly wagered a cool $3 million on the Wolverines.
(Question: at what number exactly does an amount of money wagered on a sporting event become “cool”? And as the amount goes down, does the word change? He bet a clammy $50 on Chelsea to beat Norwich City).
According to the International Business Times, 69 percent of bettors are giving the points and taking the Crimson Tide.
The $3 million may the cash that Mayweather was counting on the plane the other day. I’m not sure about you, but I’d find it very difficult to walk up to a casino cage, and hand over 3 mil and say the words: “Put it all on Brady Hoke.”
Meanwhile, Mayweather says he’d still like to fight Manny Pacquiao.
