How 2009’s worst teams will fare against the 2010 NCAA football spreads

For every great team, there has to be one that has a miserable time trying to pick up college football betting victories.

BetOnline Sportsbook has the top four teams that you needed to avoid last year on the NCAA football spreads and whether they will be detriments to you again this season.

San Jose State Spartans (2-10 ATS in 2009) - The Spartans might have a new head coach now that Dick Tomey has retired, but that doesn’t mean anything has changed in San Jose for the upcoming season.

There is still a significant lack of quarterback play for SJSU, and a porous defense isn’t helping any.

The only good news is that the oddsmakers apparently aren’t opposed to giving the Spartans 40 points to start a game with early in the season. That’s what they’ll be catching in Tuscaloosa against the defending champions, the Alabama Crimson Tide in Week 1; it also might be what they need to be catching all season long to finish .500 against the NCAA football spreads.

Colorado State Rams (2-9 ATS in 2009) – This team was nothing short of brutal at times in 2009. The only thing that CSU could take away from last year was the fact that it beat its rivals from Colorado. Now, the Buffs are out for revenge, and unless the offense is going to find more than 21.7 points per game from somewhere this year, it could be a bad start to what could be yet another miserable campaign.

Arkansas State Red Wolves (2-9 ATS in 2009) – It’s difficult for a Sun Belt team to post an ATS record this bad since the conference gets such little respect as it is, but the Red Wolves found a way to pull the feat off last year.

Things should get slightly better this year, if for no other reason than the fact that the "top performers" from last year’s 4-8 team are all gone. New blood has to help Arky State, which looks to inch towards .500 this year in a woeful conference.

Florida State Seminoles (3-9 ATS in 2009) – It’s been years since Florida State has been a viable team to back on the NCAA football spreads, and for good reason. The Noles are consistently overhyped. If the garnet and gold nation hears one more time that "this is the year" that the team comes back, it might haul off and smack someone.

Guess what, Seminoles fans… This isn’t the year either. Christian Ponder is being touted as one of the best quarterbacks in the country, and though the offense for FSU is ready to go, the defense is still atrocious.

Unless by chance the Seminoles plan on winning a lot of 42-38 games this year, this will be another year of disappointment in Tallahassee. Maybe the problem wasn’t Bobby Bowden coaching the team after all.
