Certainly, coaches Mike Leach and Jimbo Fisher command plenty of NCAA Football betting respect. Leach developed an air raid attack that continues to light up the scoreboard. Most important of all, Leach has upgraded the performance of Mississippi State in his third season. In comparison, Fisher prefers a power pro approach at Texas A&M. But many critics say that offense is outdated. Texas A&M fans were running out of patience with Fisher. But a win over Arkansas has cooled off the heat. Of course, Fisher recruits at an elite level. But championships are still missing.
