If you are looking for an easy winner, take a look down at our handicappers who have college football picks going on this game today.

Jimmy Boyd had his Labor Day Smash going as he is coming off a big winner yesterday on Ole Miss. He tries to keep the profits piling up on Monday with this play that is backed by an 8-0 angel.

Steve Merril has his daytime NCAA football winner on the Cincinnati/Rutgers odds. He is hitting at 71% in the NCAA so you know he’s got a great chance of delivering for you in this one.

The Black Widow has a 6* Widow Wiseguy play going on this and he’s calling it his Big East Blood Bath. This play is backed by a strong 17-1 (94%) angle that he is confident will hit once again.

Jordan Haimowitz went 3-0 with his top plays in week 1 of the college football season and he looks to finish it off strong with this Big East winner.

John Martin’s top play for Monday is on this game and he’s calling it his afternoon mauling. Last year Martin ranked No. 3 overall in college action and he’s looking to finish off the first week of his 2009 campaign strongly.

Craig Trapp is issuing one of his free football picks on this game and he’s taking the Bearcats +5: No respect being shown to the Big East Champs from 2008. The Bearcats lost all but one defensive starters but the cabinets are not bear. This is a very athletic defense that should be able to do enough to keep them in this one. The stars of this Bearcats team are on the offensive side where they have great skilled players. Tony Pike will be slinging the ball around and he loves his big playmaker Gillyard.

On the other side Rutgers loses a ton on offense and will have a new QB this year with zero experience. They do have there O line back but other than that an all new offense. The Scarlet Knights will struggle to score. Defense is the much better side of the ball for Rutgers. They really will have to carry this team as the offense looks like they might struggle early.

Both teams have a ton of missing players from last year. In this case I will take the team that will put up points. Defense wins championships but Rutgers defense is not good enough to shut out the Cats.
