marion_barber_dallas_cowboys_TD.jpgRead weekly sports column The Mayhem in Bodog Nation for the latest NFL news on the Dallas Cowboys following their 21-14 upset of the previously unbeaten Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Find out how the Super Bowl odds for both teams have been affected, plus get other nuggets from Week 11 in the NFL, reasons why Michigan State does not deserve another shot at Ohio State, and the coolest song of the week.

Here is an excerpt:

"The [Dallas] 3-1 streak coincides with Tony Romo’s elevation to starter. What the Cowboys’ new signal caller has done is hold onto the ball. His 100.0 passer rating is second only to Manning (100.5) in the NFL and his mobility in the pocket allows his receivers more time to get open than they normally had when Drew Bledsoe was at the helm.

Heading into a Thanksgiving Day game against Tampa Bay, bettors seem to have taken notice of the Cowboys' improvements on offense and defense. The odds for Dallas (6-4 SU and ATS) to win Super Bowl XLI dropped from 15/1 to 11/1 (while the Colts' chances ballooned from 12/5, or +240, to 7/2, or +350)."
