10-13-11 | San Diego State v. Air Force OVER 58.5 | 41-27 | Win | 100 | 29 h 29 m | Show | |
*3 Star Thursday Night Total DOMINATION* The San Diego State Aztecs had a good run defense last year, but the same cannot be said this season. San Diego State is allowing 229 rushing yards per contest this year. Air Force has the #2 rushing attack in the nation, and I expect the Falcons to find lots of room to run in this one. Air Force has a severely undersized defensive front, which makes them extremely vulnerable against the run as well. Ronnie Hillman is a very talented future NFL running back for San Diego State. Hillman and the Aztecs should be able to run all over the Air Force defense. The over is 5-0 in Air Force's last 5 games overall. Expect both offenses to move the ball quite easily in this game. Take the over.

10-09-11 | Green Bay Packers v. Atlanta Falcons OVER 53.5 | 25-14 | Loss | -109 | 151 h 46 m | Show | |
*3 Star Sunday Night Football Total Domination* The Green Bay Packers and Atlanta Falcons meet in a rematch of their playoff game last year in Atlanta. Green Bay won that game 48-21 as Aaron Rodgers carved up the Falcons secondary. The Packers offense is arguably better than it was last year at this point. Green Bay is averaging 37 points per game. At the same time, Atlanta's defense has struggled mightily this year. The Falcons are giving up 27 points per contest. I expect Green Bay to put up 30 or more points here. Matt Ryan and the Falcons offense is much better at home, and they should be able to throw the ball some on a Packers secondary that has struggled in 2011. The over is 5-2-1 in the Falcons last 8 home games. The over is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings between these teams. Take the over.

|||||||
10-09-11 | San Diego Chargers v. Denver Broncos OVER 45.5 | 29-24 | Win | 100 | 87 h 52 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The San Diego Chargers offense hasn't really broken out the way you might expect them to, but I think they could do that this weekend against Denver. The Broncos secondary is dinged up quite a bit right now, and Phillip Rivers should be able to pick them apart. The Chargers secondary isn't fully healthy either, and Kyle Orton should be able to find some open receivers. The over is 7-1 in Denver's last 8 home games. The over is 27-11-4 in the Chargers last 42 road games. The over is 7-3 in the last 10 meetings between these two. Take the over.

|||||||
10-09-11 | Philadelphia Eagles -2.5 v. Buffalo Bills | 24-31 | Loss | -110 | 84 h 54 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL ATS Play of the Week* The Buffalo Bills blasted the lowly Chiefs in Game One, then had miraculous comebacks against Oakland and New England to get to 3-0. Last week's loss at Cincinnati showed the Bills still have a long way to go. The Eagles may be 1-3, but this team is still extremely good. Quite honestly, the Eagles cannot afford to go to 1-4 if they hope to make the playoffs. It is awfully early to say this, but it is basically a must win game for them. Vick and the Eagles offense should find plenty of holes in the Buffalo defense. The Eagles defense will give up some points, but I don't think Buffalo can keep up with the Eagles. At this small number, I really like the Eagles.
|
|||||||
10-09-11 | New Orleans Saints v. Carolina Panthers OVER 51 | 30-27 | Win | 100 | 84 h 37 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total Knockout* The Carolina Panthers are a much better football team than they were last year, but the defense still needs a lot of work. Carolina is allowing 25.5 points per game this year, and the Saints have one of the best offenses in the NFL. Cam Newton and the Panthers passing attack is ranked third in the NFL, and the Saints have struggled against the pass this year. This should be a game where both quarterbacks have a lot of success. Carolina is out to prove that they can play with the best teams in the NFL, but they'll have to score points to stick around in this one. I like the over here.
|
|||||||
10-09-11 | Tennessee Titans v. Pittsburgh Steelers -3 | 17-38 | Win | 100 | 65 h 56 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Hidden GEM* The Tennessee Titans are rolling along at 3-1. The Titans benefited last week from the Browns turning it over constantly. Tennessee actually has the worst rushing attack in the NFL right now despite having Chris Johnson. Pittsburgh has the league's top ranked pass defense. I know the Steelers offensive line has some real issues, but I think this team will be highly motivated for this game. The Steelers really can't afford to go 2-3 and fall far behind the Ravens. Tennessee lost on the road at Jacksonville earlier this year, and I don't think the Titans can keep playing as well as they have been. Pittsburgh isn't as bad as they have looked, and the Steelers defense should step up big this week. Take the Steelers.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Colorado +30.5 v. Stanford | 7-48 | Loss | -110 | 48 h 1 m | Show | |
*3 Star Big Dog Play* Stanford is one of the best teams in the country, but I think this line has gotten out of hand. Stanford is a team that does a lot of running the football. Colorado has a pretty good rushing defense. In addition, Tyler Hansen has improved quite a bit for the Buffaloes. Hansen has thrown 11 TD's and just two picks this year. Stanford is great against the run defensively, but they are 86th in the nation against the pass. I think this is the type of game where Stanford gets a nice lead and then settles for a comfortable victory rather than pouring it on. The fact that Colorado should be able to move the football through the air helps since they'll likely be playing from behind. Take Colorado.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Georgia v. Tennessee OVER 57 | 20-12 | Loss | -110 | 115 h 35 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals TKO* This will be a battle of the SEC's best two quarterbacks in my opinion. Tyler Bray has helped turn this Tennessee offense into a dangerous one, and Aaron Murray continues to develop in his second year under center. Bray is completing 69% of his passes, and he has thrown 14 touchdowns and just two interceptions this year. Isiah Crowell gives the Bulldogs an impressive runner that takes pressure off Murray and the passing game for Georgia. The over is 8-3 in Georgia's last 11 games. The over is 9-2 in Tennessee's last 11 games. I expect both offenses to put up quite a few points here. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Louisiana Tech v. Idaho OVER 55 | 24-11 | Loss | -110 | 113 h 34 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Top Total* Both of these defenses are terrible against the pass. Idaho is allowing 115th out of 120 teams in the nation against the pass, and Louisiana Tech is 114th against the pass. Expect both teams to be airing it out and putting up some big numbers here. Both teams have been prone to turnovers, which could lead to some defensive touchdowns in this one as well. In the last three meetings between these teams, the final scores have been 46-14, 35-34, and 48-35. I don't see either defense faring well at all in this one. I think this one clears the total quite easily. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Louisiana Tech -3.5 v. Idaho | 24-11 | Win | 100 | 64 h 13 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Hidden GEM* The Idaho Vandals are a mess right now. They don't have a running game at all, and the defense is terrible against the pass. Idaho is allowing 308 yards per game through the air. Louisiana Tech is just 1-4, but they have had close losses against two very good teams (Houston, and Mississippi State). Nick Isham gives them a quality quarterback and I expect him to have a field day in this one. Idaho has been beaten badly at home by Bowling Green and Fresno State. Louisiana Tech is 14-6 ATS in their last 20 games following a straight-up loss. Louisiana Tech is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings with Idaho. Take Lousiana Tech.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Southern Mississippi v. Navy | 63-35 | Win | 100 | 135 h 40 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Moneyline Value* Navy lost a heart breaker last week at home against Air Force. Southern Miss started the year slowly, but they beat Virginia on the road and then crushed Rice last weekend. The Golden Eagles are a unique Conference USA team that has a very good defense, especially against the run. At this point, Southern Miss has the 11th ranked defense in the country. Navy will certainly get their yards on the ground, but I don't think they'll dominate like they often do. Southern Miss has a balanced offense that should have a lot of success against a mediocre Navy defense. Take Southern Miss here.

|||||||
10-08-11 | Arizona v. Oregon State OVER 59 | 27-37 | Win | 100 | 44 h 50 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Totals Takedown* Arizona's defense is extremely young, and they just aren't very good right now. Arizona has given up 38 points per game so far this year. Oregon State isn't very good offensively, but I do think they'll put up some points thanks to an improving passing game. On the other side, Arizona's pass offense is one of the best in the nation. Nick Foles should shred this Oregon State secondary that has been prone to giving up the big play. Both defenses are worse than last season, and I think the offenses will move the ball a lot in this one. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Boston College v. Clemson UNDER 53 | 14-36 | Win | 100 | 43 h 22 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals TKO* Boston College is a team that just doesn't have much of an offense at all this year. The star of their offense is running back Montel Harris, and he is expected to miss this game with an injury. Boston College generally stays in the game because of a defense that bends but doesn't break. Clemson is a much improved team this year. The defense showed how great it can be by holding Virginia Tech to just three point in Blacksburg last week. Look for Clemson to shutdown Boston College here. The under is 6-0 in the Eagles last 6 conference games. The under is 8-1 in Clemson's last 9 conference games. Take the under.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Illinois v. Indiana UNDER 53.5 | 41-20 | Loss | -105 | 43 h 3 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Early Bird Special* Illinois has started the season 5-0. The Fighting Illini have done it largely because of a very underrated defense. The defense is allowing just 79 rushing yards per game and 17 points per game. Indiana's defense isn't very good, but they tend to play much better at home. Illinois doesn't have a great passing attack, and the Fighting Illini generally don't blow too many teams out on the road. These teams have a history of playing low scoring games. The under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings. I expect an ugly game that stays under the posted total. Take the under.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | Army v. Miami (OH) | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 119 h 0 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Moneyline CASH* Army is a difficult team to get a read on, but one thing is for sure, they have been horrible on the road this year. Army was absolutely throttled by both Northern Illinois and Ball State on the road earlier this season. Miami (OH) is a talented team that won the MAC last year, and I expect them to be hungry as they look for their first win of the season. Army is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games against MAC teams. They are also 0-9 ATS in their last 9 as a road favorite. Army is a small road favorite here, but I like the home team's chances. Take Miami (Ohio) here.
|
|||||||
10-06-11 | California v. Oregon -23.5 | 15-43 | Win | 100 | 92 h 20 m | Show | |
*3 Star Cal/Oregon ATS Bookie CRUSHER* The Cal Golden Bears faked injuries through much of the game last year, and they were able to slow down the Oregon offense nicely. I don't expect Cal's defense to fare so well in this Thursday night game in Eugene. Oregon dropped its season opener against LSU, but this is a team that has more offensive firepower than just about anyone else in the nation. Thomas is a solid quarterback and James is one of the best runners in the country. Oregon hasn't lost a game at home in the past couple years, and their smallest margin of victory was 19 points during that span. Oregon is used to covering big spreads. The Ducks are 24-10-1 ATS in their last 35 games as favorites of 10.5 points or more. Take Oregon.
|
|||||||
10-06-11 | California v. Oregon OVER 62.5 | 15-43 | Loss | -110 | 68 h 17 m | Show | |
*3 Star Cal/Oregon Total DOMINATION* The Cal Golden Bears are averaging 39.5 points per game this year. Oregon is averaging 52 points per game this year (best in the nation). Both defenses are quite vulnerable. Oregon's defense isn't nearly as good as last year, and Cal should be able to score some points here. At the same time, Oregon's offense is as good as ever. The Ducks absolutely have the ability to put up 50 points or more in this game. Oregon will push the tempo in a big way and get out to a big lead here. I think Cal will find some success through the air in this game, and I expect a very high scoring game. The over is 16-4-1 in Oregon's last 21 home games. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-03-11 | Indianapolis Colts +10.5 v. Tampa Bay Buccaneers | 17-24 | Win | 100 | 20 h 28 m | Show | |
*3 Star Monday Night Football Bookie BEATDOWN* The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are certainly a better football team than the Indianapolis Colts right now. Josh Freeman is a rising star in the league and Raheem Morris has done a nice job with the Bucs defense. Having said that, the Colts showed they aren't just going to roll over last week against Pittsburgh. Indianapolis has a lot of veterans with plenty of pride. The defensive line can really get after the passer, and Freeman does tend to hold the ball a little too long at times. Tampa Bay is a team that generally squeaks out close wins rather than covering the number. The Bucs are 5-16 ATS in their last 21 home games. Take the Colts here.
|
|||||||
10-02-11 | New England Patriots v. Oakland Raiders OVER 54.5 | 31-19 | Loss | -110 | 98 h 13 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The New England Patriots have scored 38, 35, and 31 points in their three games this year. I see no reason to think their productivity will drop against a weak Oakland secondary. On the other hand, Oakland has the best rushing attack in the NFL. I expect Darren McFadden to have a very big day against New England. Oakland scored 35 points against Buffalo and then lit up a very good New York Jets defense for 34 points. It wouldn't surprise me to see both teams at 30 points or more in this one. Expect a lot of big plays from both offenses. The over is 19-7 in the Patriots last 26. The over is 5-0 in the Raiders last 5 home games. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-02-11 | New Orleans Saints -6.5 v. Jacksonville Jaguars | 23-10 | Win | 100 | 95 h 3 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL ATS Play of the Week* The New Orleans Saints stormed back to beat Houston 40-33 last week. This New Orleans offense is in midseason form right now. They are second in the NFL in total offense and second in passing offense. Jacksonville's defensive numbers look good, but they have yet to face a powerful offense. They have taken on the Titans, Panthers, and Jets. The Saints will easily be the best offense they have matched up against. The Jaguars will have to rely on MJD to run the football effectively to stay in this one, and the run defense is the Saints strength. Blaine Gabbert gets the start here, and I think the Saints will get a nice pass rush on him and force turnovers. Jacksonville is 2-9 ATS in their last 11 against teams with a winning record. Take New Orleans.
|
|||||||
10-02-11 | Tennessee Titans v. Cleveland Browns UNDER 39.5 | 31-13 | Loss | -107 | 95 h 58 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Totals TKO* Which defense is currently ranked first in the NFL in total defense? Not many people would know it, but it is the Tennessee Titans. Cleveland's offense has struggled to get going all year, and I think Tennessee will load up the box and force the Browns to try to beat them through the air. On the other side, despite having Chris Johnson, the Titans are dead last in rushing yards per game with a paltry 51 yards per contest. The Browns secondary is very good, so I don't expect Hasselbeck to find too many open receivers. Remember, Kenny Britt is injured, and he was Tennessee's best wideout. I like the under in this one.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | North Carolina -6.5 v. East Carolina | 35-20 | Win | 100 | 121 h 9 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Value Play* North Carolina has a very talented freshman quarterback in Bryn Renning. Renning has made too many mistakes so far this year, but he does have a great skillset. North Carolina has played a tougher schedule to this point than East Carolina has. East Carolina's run defense was atrocious all of last year, and they have gotten worse each game this season. East Carolina's offense is dynamic through the air, but they don't have a running attack. I think the Tar Heels will key in on the pass here, and slow down this Pirates offense. North Carolina is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings with East Carolina. Take North Carolina.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Hawaii v. Louisiana Tech OVER 58 | 44-26 | Win | 100 | 120 h 0 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Top Total* Hawaii's Bryant Moniz is back for another year. Moniz is a terric quarterback for this pass happy system. He is completing 66% of his passes this year. He also has 11 TD's and just one pick. Louisiana Tech's pass defense isn't very impressive. They allowed 372 yards through the air at home against Central Arkansas earlier this year. The Louisiana Tech offense is averaging 30 points per game, and Hawaii's defense is notoriously bad away from home. The over is 5-2 in Hawaii's last 7 games. The over is 4-1 in La. Tech's last 5 home games. Expect a high scoring game here. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Duke v. Florida International OVER 57 | 31-27 | Win | 100 | 47 h 41 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Total Value Play* Duke has a solid quarterback in Sean Renfree. Renfree knows the system well and he can pick apart a defense if he is given time to throw. Florida International's defense is no better than average, and their secondary is quite inexperienced. Duke averages 306 passing yards per game, and they should be able to air it out here. Duke's pass defense is poor as well, and TY Hilton and the Florida International offense should find lots of room to operate. The over is 6-1 in Duke's last 7 non-conference games. The over is 4-1 in FIU's last 5 games following a loss. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Clemson v. Virginia Tech UNDER 51 | 23-3 | Win | 100 | 46 h 49 m | Show | |
*3 Star Clemson/Va. Tech Total Domination* Frank Beamer and his Virginia Tech team have proven they know how to win football games at home. What is the secret? They run the football and control time of possession. They also play solid defense and make it a sloppy and low scoring game. Clemson's totals have gone over in all four of their games, which gives us a solid value here. I don't think the Tigers will find the offense nearly as easy to come by in this one. Expect Virginia Tech to keep it on the ground often here, which should help keep the clock ticking most of the game. The under is 9-2 in the Hokies last 11 games. Take the under.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Georgia Tech -10.5 v. North Carolina State | 45-35 | Loss | -109 | 117 h 43 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Bookie SMASHER* I really like what Paul Johnson is doing at Georgia Tech. Johnson's teams always run the option as well as anyone in the country, but this year they also have the ability to beat the opposition with the pass. Tevin Washington averages 19.55 yards per completion, and he has eight touchdowns and one interception. North Carolina State's defense has been getting chewed up by everyone so far this year. They allowed 240 yards on the ground last week at Cincinnati, and Wake Forest rolled up 438 yards of offense on the Wolfpack earlier this year. The Yellow Jackets are 16-6 ATS in their last 22 road games. They are also 5-1 ATS in their last 6 at NC State. Take Georgia Tech.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Idaho v. Virginia -17 | 20-21 | Loss | -110 | 117 h 34 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Under the Radar Play* The Virginia Cavaliers took a tough loss at home to Southern Miss last week. Maybe that is why the line came in lower than I expected here, but I see this as a completely different situation. Idaho is an absolute mess this year. They were beaten at home by 17 against Bowling Green, and by 24 against Fresno State. Virginia's defense is pretty solid, and I don't expect Idaho to be able to move the ball much at all in this one. Virginia is 15-5 ATS in their last 20 home games against teams with a losing record. Idaho doesn't bounce back well after a loss. Idaho is 9-25-1 ATS in their last 35 following a loss. Take Virginia.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Bowling Green v. West Virginia -20.5 | 10-55 | Win | 100 | 116 h 22 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB ATS Play of the Week* Bowling Green comes into this game 3-1, but the schedule hasn't been difficult. That all changes this week when they travel to West Virginia to take on a mad group of Mountaineers. West Virginia outgained LSU last weekend, but mistakes really cost them. I expect Dana Holgorsen's offense to be firing on all cylinders this weekend. Bowling Green has yet to face a good offense, and West Virginia is one of the best in the nation. Bowling Green is 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 games against a team with a winning record. I expect a motivated game out of West Virginia, and I think this one could get pretty ugly. Take West Virginia here.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Western Michigan +3 v. Connecticut | 38-31 | Win | 100 | 116 h 22 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Hidden GEM* The Western Michigan Broncos are a team that I believe is being underrated by the oddsmakers right now. Western Michigan nearly beat an undefeated Illinois team on the road last week. Now, they'll travel to take on a weak UConn team that lost to both Vanderbilt and Iowa State. Alex Carder is one of the best quarterbacks you have probably never heard of before. Carder is a great fit for Western Michigan. He completes 69% of his passes, and it doesn't hurt that he has Jordan White (one of the best receivers in the nation) to throw the ball to. Western Michigan has a strong defensive line that should make life difficult on the UConn running game. I expect Western Michigan to not only cover, but win this game straight up. Take Western Michigan.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Baylor v. Kansas State OVER 63.5 | 35-36 | Win | 100 | 112 h 59 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals Takedown* It's hard to overstate just how amazing this Baylor offense has been this year. Baylor ranks second in all of college football in total offense. Robert Griffin III is completing a ridiculous 85 percent of his passes. Griffin is hands down the best dual-threat quarterback in college football. What about his decision making? Griffin has thrown 13 touchdowns and zero interceptions. Kansas State simply won't be able to stop Baylor. At the same time, Baylor's defense is not good at all. Kansas State's Bill Snyder should have Collin Klein and the offense ready with a good game plan for this game. The over is 9-3 in Kansas State's last 12 games. The over is 5-1 in Baylor's last 6. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Arizona v. USC OVER 57 | 41-48 | Win | 100 | 46 h 10 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Hoops Total Domination* The Arizona Wildcats defense is very young and inexperienced this year. It has definitely shown in the first few games. Arizona has given up at least 37 points in each of their last three contests. The Wildcats secondary will likely be picked apart by Matt Barkley and Robert Woods of USC. Arizona's Nick Foles is a very good quarterback, and I expect Arizona to be able to move the ball well also. USC's secondary has been pretty poor in coverage this year. The over/under was posted at 61 in last year's game, and with a much worse Arizona defense this year, we also get a lower number. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-01-11 | Kent State v. Ohio UNDER 47 | 10-17 | Win | 100 | 45 h 40 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals TKO* Kent State ranks 119th out of 120 teams in college football in total offense. The Golden Flashes best offensive output was 281 total yards against South Alabama. In their other three contests, they have yet to top 200 yards of total offense. Ohio's defense is near the top of the MAC in most categories, and I don't think Kent State scores much at all here. On the other side, Kent State actually has a decent defense. I expect an ugly game with neither offense getting in a real rhythm. The under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings between these two. Take the under.
|
|||||||
09-29-11 | Houston v. UTEP OVER 64.5 | 49-42 | Win | 100 | 73 h 40 m | Show | |
*3 Star Thursday Night Total DOMINATION* The Houston Cougars may have the best passing attack in the country. Case Keenum is back healthy and this offense is firing on all cylinders. Houston has scored at least 35 points in every game this year, and they are averaging 44 points per game on the season. This is a passing attack that averages 446 yards per game through the air. UTEP has yet to face a great offense this year, but they gave up 575 yards last week against South Florida. UTEP has a solid passing attack that is generally more productive at home, and Houston's defense is pretty weak. The over is 17-6 in Houston's last 23 games. In the last 4 meetings between these teams the total has finished at 65, 79, 99, and 78 points. I like the over in this one.
|
|||||||
09-25-11 | Green Bay Packers -3 v. Chicago Bears | 27-17 | Win | 100 | 51 h 32 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL ATS Play of the Week* The Chicago Bears surprised me by crushing the Falcons on week one, but they didn't look good in last week's loss at New Orleans. The Bears offensive line is miserable right now, and I fully expect the Packers to be able to exploit that weakness. Clay Matthews, B.J. Raji, and others should be in the Bears backfield constantly. Aaron Rodgers is a much better quarterback than Jay Cutler, and Rodgers has far more weapons to work with as well. The Bears won the NFC North last year, but I don't see this team making the playoffs this season. Green Bay has a great offense and defense, and they seem to have picked up right where they left off last season. The Packers are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 meetings with the Bears in Chicago. Take Green Bay here.
|
|||||||
09-25-11 | NY Jets v. Oakland Raiders UNDER 41.5 | 24-34 | Loss | -110 | 111 h 41 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The Oakland Raiders are a very good running team, but the Jets front seven is extremely talented. The Jets are a great running team as well, but Oakland has an extremely strong defensive line. Both of these teams will likely be attempting to establish the run, but I don't see either team running as well as normal in this one. Mark Sanchez and Jason Campbell have both shown they aren't generally able to air it out and pick up huge yardage through the air. This has the makings of a defensive struggle. I like the under here.
|
|||||||
09-25-11 | Houston Texans v. New Orleans Saints OVER 53 | 33-40 | Win | 100 | 108 h 36 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Totals Takedown* The Houston Texans have a very capable offense. Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson is one of the best quarteback/wide receiver combos in the league. Arian Foster is dinged up, but Ben Tate is a solid backup. Houston's defense is very weak against the pass, and the Saints can definitely air it out. Drew Brees has 6 TD's and 0 interceptions this year, and I expect them to move the ball quite easily against the Texans secondary. The over is 6-0 in Houston's last 6 games as an underdog. The over is 8-3-1 in the Saints last 12 games during September. Take the over.

09-24-11 | Oregon v. Arizona OVER 64 | 56-31 | Win | 100 | 96 h 48 m | Show | |
*3 Star Oregon/Arizona Total Domination* The Oregon Ducks were beaten soundly by LSU in week one, but don't let that fool you into thinking this team isn't dangerous. Oregon's offense is definitely one of the top five in the nation, and they have shown that the last couple weeks. The Ducks put up 69 points against Nevada. They then had 56 points before the end of the third last week against Missouri State before calling off the dogs. Arizona's defense was riddled by Stanford last weekend, and I think Oregon's offense is better. Both Oklahoma State and Stanford scored 37 on Arizona. I expect Oregon to top 40 points here. Oregon's defense is definitely down from a year ago, and Arizona put up 23 on them last year. This has all the makings of a shootout. The over is 16-7 in Oregon's last 23 games. The over is 4-1 in the last 5 matchups between these two. Take the over.

09-24-11 | Rice v. Baylor -20.5 | 31-56 | Win | 100 | 68 h 57 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Play of the Week* The Rice Owls have struggled quite a bit on the road the last couple years. They lost to Texas 34-9 in their season opener this year, and they were beaten by UCF 41-14 and Tulsa 64-27 in back-to-back weeks near the end of last year. Baylor's offense will be one of the best in the nation this year. Robert Griffin III is a legitimate Heisman contender. The Owls defense should have no answers for Griffin and the Bears offense in this one. Rice is 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games against the Big 12 Conference. Baylor is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games against Conference USA foes. Take Baylor.

09-24-11 | Connecticut v. Buffalo OVER 46 | 17-3 | Loss | -110 | 91 h 8 m | Show | |
*3 Star Ugly Football Totals Winner* I certainly won't be watching this game on Saturday, and I don't think you should either. Both of these teams aren't very good at all, but I think there is a good value on the total here. Chazz Anderson has helped the Buffalo offense become formidable this year. The Buffalo defense is very bad. The Bulls have been getting gashed on the ground by teams who aren't very good. UConn has a solid ground game and I expect them to use it effectively this week. These teams have played the last two years and the score has been 45-21 and 38-20. The total is set so low here that I like the over.

|||||||
09-24-11 | Tulane v. Duke OVER 54.5 | 27-48 | Win | 100 | 110 h 39 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals Takedown* The Tulane Green Wave are short-handed in the secondary right now. Southeastern Louisiana threw for 295 yards and Tulsa threw for 246 yards against them. Duke's Sean Renfree has a good understanding of the Blue Devils offense, and he should be able to move this team up and down the field against a weak secondary. Duke's defense is giving up 29 points per game this year. Tulane has a solid quarterback in Ryan Griffin. Griffin should find plenty of open receivers against Duke. The over is 6-1 in Tulane's last 7. The over is 5-1 in Duke's last 6 non-confernce games. Take the over.

|||||||
09-24-11 | Western Michigan +14 v. Illinois | 20-23 | Win | 100 | 73 h 9 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB ATS Value Play* The perceived large difference in talent between a middle of the road Big Ten team and MAC team is giving us a solid value play here. Western Michigan should be one of the better teams in the MAC this year. Alex Carder is an extremely talented quarterback. Jordan White is one of the best receivers in the nation, and he'll give Illinois fits on Saturday. This Illinois team only beat Arkansas State by 18 at home, and Arkansas State isn't nearly as talented as Western Michigan. The Broncos actually beat Illinois 23-17 in 2008. Illinois is just 5-14 ATS in their last 19 non-conference games. Take Western Michigan.

|||||||
09-24-11 | Georgia v. Ole Miss UNDER 54.5 | 27-13 | Win | 100 | 85 h 8 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Early Bird Total* The Ole Miss offense is a complete mess right now. The offensive coordinator admitted earlier this week that he decided to reduce the playbook by 25 or 30% this week because the offense just can't get the plays right. The running game has been pretty good the last couple years, but team's are now stacking the box since the Rebels can't throw it much at all. The Rebels defense is only allowing 22.7 points per game, and they should play inspired at home this week against an SEC foe. The under is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings between these teams. TAke the under.

|||||||
09-24-11 | Notre Dame -6.5 v. Pittsburgh | 15-12 | Loss | -115 | 106 h 60 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Bookie SMASHER* The Notre Dame Fighting Irish started the season 0-2, but this is still a very good football team. The 0-2 start actually gives us a chance to find some good value on Notre Dame right now. Pittsburgh's Tino Sunseri has struggled a lot in trying to adapt to Todd Graham's fast paced spread offense. Notre Dame will be the best defense that Pitt has faced this year, and that should make life even tougher on Sunseri. Pittsburgh's defense has been shredded by some poor teams already this year. The Panthers are allowing 336 passing yards per game, second worst in all of football, despite facing Maine and Buffalo in the first couple weeks of the year. Notre Dame should cover the spread here.
|
|||||||
09-24-11 | San Diego State v. Michigan OVER 60 | 7-28 | Loss | -110 | 69 h 24 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals TKO* The Michigan Wolverines haven't been quite as dynamic on offense this year, but I think they still can be when they need to be. San Diego State's offense is led by Ryan Lindley, a talented four year starter at quarterback. Ronnie Hillmann is a great sophomore running back for the Aztecs. I expect the Aztecs to be able to move the ball a lot in this one against a subpar Michigan defense. San Diego State has allowed 199 yards per game on the ground, and Denard Robinson should take advantage of that. It is Brady Hoke's new team against his old team this Saturday. I expect a high scoring game. Take the over.
|
|||||||
09-24-11 | Louisiana Monroe +17 v. Iowa | 17-45 | Loss | -110 | 61 h 57 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Under the Radar Play* The Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks are one of the most improved teams in the Sun Belt. The Sun Belt has shown it is a viable conference of late with Florida International pulling some nice upsets in the last couple weeks. Kolton Browning is a very solid quarterback for the Warhawks, and I think he'll have some success against Iowa. Monroe was pretty competitive last week at TCU, and I think Iowa has been underwhelming so far this year. The Hawkeyes lost to Iowa State, then struggled badly against Pittsburgh last week. Iowa has a tendency to play down to their opponent, as evidienced by their 4-11 ATS record in their last 15 games against teams with a losing record. Take LA. Monroe here.
|
|||||||
09-24-11 | Eastern Michigan +29 v. Penn State | 6-34 | Win | 100 | 61 h 56 m | Show | |
*3 Star Big Dog ATS Play* Penn State has a solid defense this year, but their offense just isn't that great. Rob Bolden and Matt McGloin are sharing time at the quarterback spot. Neither has done a good job managing the offense, and the offensive line isn't very dominate on the line of scrimmage. Eastern Michigan is not a good team, but they have turned into a power running team. The fact that Eastern Michigan can run the ball and milk clock should help them keep this game closer. Last week the Eagles of E. Michigan lost to Michigan 31-3, and Michigan has a far more explosive offense than Penn State. Joe Paterno isn't the type of coach that runs up the score very often. The Nittany Lions are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 as favorites of 10.5 or more. Penn State is 1-11 ATS in their last 12 September games. Take Eastern Michigan.

|||||||
09-24-11 | North Carolina v. Georgia Tech OVER 58 | Top | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 106 h 16 m | Show |
*5 Star Top Play of the Week* Georgia Tech always has one of the best running games in the country since Paul Johnson is their coach. This year Tevin Washington is giving them an extra dimension with his ability to throw the ball. Washington has thrown for more than 600 yards in just three games. He has 7 touchdowns and zero interceptions. How good is the Yellow Jackets rushing attack? The team has three players with at least ten carries this year that are averaging 10 yards or more per carry. On the other side, North Carolina has a budding star in quarterback Bryn Renning. Renning has completed 81% of his passes this year, and he has made this offense much more dynamic. Georgia Tech has scored at least 49 points in each of their 3 games this year. I think both offenses will have a leg up on the defenses here. The over is 7-0 in Georgia Tech's last 7 September games. This is my biggest play of the week. Take the over.

09-18-11 | Dallas Cowboys -3 v. San Francisco 49ers | 27-24 | Push | 0 | 87 h 37 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Road Warrior* The Dallas Cowboys should have beaten the New York Jets last weekend. Tony Romo's fourth quarter meltdown was about as bad as it gets. Still, the Cowboys did dominate the Jets (who are a good team) for the majority of the game. This week they'll take on the 49ers in San Francisco. The Niners led just 19-17 late in the 4th quarter against Seattle last week before Ted Ginn took two returns to the house. Dallas has a strong defensive front, and I don't think the Niners can exploit the Cowboys trouble in the secondary. The Niners secondary isn't very good against the pass, and I think Romo bounces back nicely in this one. The 49ers are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 following a straight up win. Take Dallas.

|||||||
09-18-11 | Kansas City Chiefs v. Detroit Lions OVER 44 | 3-48 | Win | 100 | 141 h 30 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The Kansas City Chiefs defense was lit up like a Christmas tree by Buffalo last weekend. Detroit's offense will be much better this year with a healthy Matt Stafford under center. Calvin Johnson is a beast on the outside, and the Lions have a solid offensive nucleus. Kansas City lost Eric Berry, their most talented player in the secondary, and he will miss the rest of the year. On the other side, I do expect Jamaal Charles and the Chiefs to be able to move the ball on the ground some in this one. The over is 8-2 in the Lions last 10 home games, and with Stafford healthy I think this Lions offense is very good. The over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings between these two teams. Take the over.
|
|||||||
09-18-11 | Seattle Seahawks v. Pittsburgh Steelers -14 | 0-24 | Win | 100 | 97 h 57 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL ATS Play of the Week* I rarely side with a favorite of 14 points in the NFL, but I absolutely love this spot for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Seattle will be one of the worst teams in the NFL this year, and Pittsburgh will be one of the best. Pittsburgh was absolutely embarrassed last weekend at Baltimore, and they should be extra ticked off in his home opener. Jackson is at quarterback for Seattle, and I think he is a turnover waiting to happen, especially against this Pittsburgh defense. The Steelers have a history of bouncing back. They are 11-4-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a loss of 14 points or more. I think Pittsburgh's defense will dominate, and the offense will put up quite a few. This one should get very ugly. Take the Steelers.

|||||||
09-17-11 | Utah v. BYU UNDER 47 | 54-10 | Loss | -110 | 81 h 15 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Total Domination* The BYU Cougars have played to a 14-13 and 17-16 final in their first two games. At this point, it is pretty clear that the BYU defense is ahead of the offense. The same thing happened last year with this team at the beginning of the season. Utah held a pretty good USC offense in check last weekend. The Utes have a fairly pedestrian offense. The under is 3-1 in the last 4 meetings in this in-state rivalry. The under is 6-1 in the last 7 meetings at BYU. I expect both defenses to flex their muscles in this one. Take the under.
|
|||||||
09-17-11 | Oklahoma v. Florida State OVER 55 | 23-13 | Loss | -110 | 53 h 5 m | Show | |
*3 Star Oklahoma/FSU Total Domination* Oklahoma's high octane offense will be difficult for anyone to stop this year. The Sooners defense isn't bad, but they certainly aren't one of the best in the land. If Florida State is going to keep up with Oklahoma, they'll have to put up quite a few points in this one. I think the Seminoles are equipped to put together long drives and score some points here. At the same time, I think Oklahoma will wear down the Florida State defense with their fast paced offense. Last year's game saw Oklahoma roll to a 47-17 win. Florida State should be highly motivated in this one, and I expect a high scoring close game here. Take the over.

|||||||
09-17-11 | Marshall v. Ohio -2 | 7-44 | Win | 100 | 139 h 36 m | Show | |
Ohio -2 against Marshall. *3 Star ATS Bookie SMASHER* The Ohio Bobcats have a team that is certainly capable of winning the MAC East this year. Frank Solich has a team that can run the football and defend the run quite well. Tyler Tettleton has stepped in and given the team a bit of a passing game, which should help quite a bit. Marshall won at home last weekend against Southern Miss, but that was largely due to the fact that Southern Miss had 6 turnovers. Ohio has the more experienced team, and they are laying less than a field goal at home. The Bobcats are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 as a home favorite. Take Ohio here.
|
|||||||
09-17-11 | Houston -7.5 v. Louisiana Tech | 35-34 | Loss | -110 | 123 h 20 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Road Warrior* The Houston Cougars are firing on all cylinders right now. Case Keenum is backa and he looks as healthy as ever. Louisiana Tech has a weak secondary that struggled all of last season. Last week La. Tech allowed Central Arkansas to throw for 372 yards. Don't be surprised if Houston puts up 450 or 500 yards through the air in this one. Louisiana Tech is just 15-36-1 ATS in their last 52 games following a straight up win. I think Houston is a team that could make quite a bit of noise this year, and I like the Cougars to cover the spread in this one.
|
|||||||
09-17-11 | Kent State +17.5 v. Kansas State | 0-37 | Loss | -110 | 52 h 59 m | Show | |
*3 Star Underdog of the Week* Kansas State needed a late fourth quarter touchdown to beat Eastern Kentucky 10-7 in their opening game of the year. Kent State was walloped by Alabama and then beaten at home by Lousiana-Lafayette. I'm not that high onn Kent State as a team, but I just don't believe Kansas State deserves to be laying this kind of a number on anyone at this point. The Wildcats have a new quarterback in the system and they no longer have Daniel Thomas, their star running back from last season. Kansas State is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 September games. They are also 6-20 ATS in their last 26 non-conference games. Take Kent State.
|
|||||||
09-17-11 | Penn State v. Temple +10 | 14-10 | Win | 100 | 116 h 42 m | Show | |
*3 Star Under the Radar ATS Winner* The Temple Owls don't have Al Golden coaching them anymore, but they are still a pretty good football team. Penn State was humbled in a big way at home against Alabama last weekend, and I think the Nittany Lions are being overvalued a bit by the oddsmakers. Consider that both of these teams are quite similar to what they were last season, and Temple lost 22-13 in Happy Valley. It seems a little strange that Temple would be a double digit dog at home in this one. Bernard Pierce and Matt Brown should be able to run the football, and the Temple defense should hold its own. Take Temple.
|
|||||||
09-17-11 | Central Michigan v. Western Michigan UNDER 56 | 14-44 | Loss | -110 | 72 h 1 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Hidden GEM* It's a battle of two directional Michigan schools in the MAC this Saturday. Central Michigan has a solid secondary led by Jahleel Addae. Western Michigan counts on throwing the football all the time, and if forced to run it, they will have some trouble offensively. Western Michigan probably has the best front four in the MAC, and that should give Ryan Radcliffe and the Central Michigan offense quite a bit of trouble. Central Michigan only put up 21 points against South Carolina State, so their offense isn't too strong. The under is 6-2 in Central Michigan's last 8. The under is 4-1 in the Broncos last 5 home games. Take the under.

|||||||
09-17-11 | West Virginia v. Maryland OVER 55 | 37-31 | Win | 100 | 68 h 49 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Totals Takedown* Dana Holgorsen is an offensive minded coach, and everywhere he has been the team's offense has put up points. Geno Smith is a good quarterback for the system and Tavon Austin is a real threat at the wide receiver spot. Maryland's Danny O'Brien is a much better quarterback than most people realize, and the West Virginia defense lot a ton of talent from last year. Maryland rolled up 499 total yards against Miami, and I expect Randy Edsall's team to be a solid balanced offense this year. I like this one to go over the total.
|
|||||||
09-17-11 | Wyoming v. Bowling Green OVER 52 | 28-27 | Win | 100 | 68 h 40 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Early Bird Special* The Wyoming Cowboys don't have much of a passing attack, but the running game is pretty good. Bowling Green's weakness defensively is stopping the run, so I expect Wyoming to be able to move the ball in this one. Bowling Green runs a west coast offense. Matt Schilz is a solid quarterback and I think the Falcons will score quite a few points this season. The Wyoming secondary is extremely inexperienced, and that should show quite frequently this weekend. Schilz was injured quite a bit last year, but he is healthy this year. I expect Bowling Green totals to move higher as the year goes along. I like the value on the over.

|||||||
09-12-11 | Oakland Raiders v. Denver Broncos OVER 40.5 | 23-20 | Win | 100 | 21 h 46 m | Show | |
*3 Star Monday Night Football Bookie CRUSHER* The Oakland Raiders and Denver Broncos both have a new coach this year. The Raiders team lost quite a bit of talent, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Oakland lost the best corner in football, and now their secondary is banged up. While Denver wasn't very good last year, the passing game was very effective. On the other side, Denver was one of the worst defenses in the NFL. The Broncos simply couldn't stop the run, and that is exactly what the Raiders do very well. With McFadden and Bush running hard behind a talented run blocking offensive line, I expect the Raiders to run the ball well on Monday night. The over is 16-5 in Denver's last 21 games overall. The over is 8-2 in the last 10 meetings between these teams. Take the over.
|
|||||||
09-11-11 | Carolina Panthers v. Arizona Cardinals OVER 36.5 | 21-28 | Win | 100 | 88 h 57 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The Carolina Panthers will have Cam Newton under center as they start off the 2011-2012 season. Newton will certainly give them a play maker at the quarterback position. Stewart and Williams give the Panthers a nice tailback tandem, and Smith is still one of the best receivers in the NFL. I think Carolina's offense will be quite a bit better than they were last year. Arizona picked up Kevin Kolb, which should help their passing game a lot. Larry Fitzgerald might be the most talented receiver in football, and Kolb should connect deep with him at least once or twice a game. Both teams improved offensively, and I think the oddsmakers have this one set too low. Take the over.

|||||||
09-11-11 | Atlanta Falcons -2.5 v. Chicago Bears | 12-30 | Loss | -116 | 85 h 15 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL ATS Play of the Week* The Chicago Bears are a team that I believe will be overrated as we head into this season. The Bears won the division last year, but I don't think they can do it again this season. This is a defense that is aging, and they won't be able to carry the load much longer. Jay Cutler hasn't been consistent enough as a starting quarterback. Atlanta has Matt Ryan, who is a very solid quarterback at this stage in his career. The Falcons have two very good WR's in Jones and White, and the running game is very good with Turner. Atlanta is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games. Take the Falcons.
|
|||||||
09-11-11 | Tennessee Titans +115 v. Jacksonville Jaguars | 14-16 | Loss | -100 | 85 h 56 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Dog of the Week* Matt Hasselbeck gives the Tennessee Titans a solid veteran presence at quarterback, which is more than the Jaguars have at this point. Luke McCown has never proven capable of keeping a starting job for too long, and I don't expect him to perform very well in this one. Chris Johnson may have held out quite a while, but at least he is healthy heading into this season. The Jaguars changed their mind at the last minute on the quarterback spot, and I think that will hurt them in this game. Take the Titans ML.

09-10-11 | Northern Illinois -6 v. Kansas | 42-45 | Loss | -110 | 113 h 19 m | Show | |
*3 Star Under the Radar ATS Winner* The Kansas Jayhawks are not a good football team right now. Turner Gill gets the most out of his players, but he just doesn't have much to work with this year. The defensive line is absolutely awful, which is a big problem against a team like Northern Illinois. Kansas allowed 37 sacks last year, and the offensive front will be a problem again this season. Northern Illinois has a great offensive line and a very strong running game. Northern Illinois is 11-1-1 ATS in their last 13 games. Kansas is 7-15 ATS in their last 22 games. The Huskies may be from the smaller conference, but they are definitely the better team here. Take Northern Illinois.

09-10-11 | BYU v. Texas UNDER 48.5 | 16-17 | Win | 100 | 48 h 28 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Total DOMINATION* The BYU Cougars and the Texas Longhorns are two teams that are quite a bit like each other. Both teams have a quarterback with quite a bit of promise, but they haven't been terribly consistent. Both defenses have had to carry the offenses in the past year, and I expect that to be the case quite a bit in this game. BYU won 14-13 last week, but their last touchdown was a defensive score. Texas struggled in the first three quarters against a terrible Rice defense. Neither team will be able to air it out much in this one. Look for a lot of running that will keep the clock ticking. The under is 6-1 in BYU's last 7 road games. The under is 5-1 in Texas' last 6 home games. Take the under.

|||||||
09-10-11 | South Carolina -2.5 v. Georgia | 45-42 | Win | 100 | 89 h 35 m | Show | |
*3 Star SEC Road Warrior* The South Carolina Gamecocks are my pick to win the SEC East this year. Steve Spurrier's team has a nice balance on offense. Marcus Lattimore is one of the nation's best runners. Lattimore had 37 carries for 182 yards against Georgia last year, and I think he'll be successful again this season. Alshon Jeffery might be the best wide receiver in the nation as well, so the Gamecocks have some real weapons. Defensively, South Carolina is strong on the front seven, and the secondary is opportunistic. Georgia was beaten soundly by Boise State in the opener, and South Carolina is not too far behind Boise in terms of talent. The Gamecocks are 4-1 in their last 5 games at Georgia. Take South Carolina.

09-10-11 | Tulsa -14 v. Tulane | 31-3 | Win | 100 | 110 h 50 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Bookie BEATDOWN* The Tulsa Golden Hurricane were beaten down by Oklahoma in week one, but this is still a very good team. Tulane is short-handed in the secondary, and that is a terrible problem to have with Tulsa coming to town. In the last 6 meetings between these two teams, Tulsa has won each time by at least 24 points. Kinne is a terrific athlete at quarterback for Tulsa, and Tulane simply doesn't have the athleticism that Tulsa has. Tulane is an awful 10-26-1 ATS in their last 37 home games. Tulsa is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 meetings with Tulane. Take Tulsa here.

09-10-11 | Southern Mississippi -8.5 v. Marshall | 20-26 | Loss | -110 | 110 h 50 m | Show | |
Southern Miss -8.5 vs. Marshall. *Oddsmaker Line Error* The Marshall Thundering Herd are a mess right now. Marshall has an inexperienced quarterback who doesn't seem to be accurate throwing the football, and they also have no running game at all. The leading rusher from last year's Marshall team had a measly 345 yards on the season. Southern Miss is a team I really like this year. Austin Davis is an accurate passer who can really spread out the defense. Marshall has a good front four, but the back seven is pretty young. Southern Miss has play makers all over the field on both sides of the ball. The Golden Eagles narrowly won last week's game against La. Tech, but that game was played in a driving rainstorm. I think the team with the superior athletes wins comfortably here. Take Southern Miss.

|||||||
09-10-11 | Cincinnati v. Tennessee OVER 53 | 23-45 | Win | 100 | 45 h 57 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Top Total* After Tyler Bray took over as quarterback last season, the Tennessee offense became much more productive. The team averaged 35.4 points per game in their last five contests last year. They opened by putting up 42 points against Montana last week. Cincinnati has a very skilled quarterback in Zach Collaros. The Bearcats rolled up 72 points against Austin Peay last week. Neither of these teams have a strong defense, and I think this could turn into a track meet. Look for both quarterbacks to have a big day in this one. The over is 8-1 in Tennessee's last 9 home games. The over is 7-0 in the Volunteers last 7 non-conference games. Take the over.

09-10-11 | Rutgers v. North Carolina -10.5 | 22-24 | Loss | -110 | 85 h 34 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Hidden GEM* North Carolina was impressive in their blowout win over James Madison last weekend. Most people don't know it, but James Madison is actually a very good team from the CAA conference. Last year, James Madison beat Virginia Tech in Blacksburg. UNC blitzed James Madison 42-10 behind a great showing from new quarterback Bryn Renner. How about these numbers? Renner was 22 for 23 passing for 277 yards in his first career start. Rutgers could only run for 3.3 yards per carry against a terrible North Carolina Central team last week. North Carolina's defense should dominate the Rutgers offense, and the Tar Heels offense should be able to move it both on the ground and through the air. Rutgers is 2-10 ATS in their last 12 September games. Take North Carolina.

|||||||
09-10-11 | San Diego State -9.5 v. Army | 23-20 | Loss | -110 | 84 h 51 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Early Bird* The San Diego State Aztecs might not have Brady Hoke at the helm this year, but they should be very good once again. Lindley is a talented quarterback who understands the system well. Hillman is a running back who has game changing skills in the backfield for the Aztecs. Army's defense allowed 6.2 yards per carry against Northern Illinois last week, and I expect San Diego State to find lots of running room. San Diego State has been preparing for the option attack for quite a while during the offseason (Cal Poly- their first opponent runs the option as well). The Aztecs are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 September games. Army is 7-19 ATS in their last 26 home games. I think this is a mismatch. Take SD State -9.5.

09-10-11 | Central Michigan v. Kentucky UNDER 47.5 | 13-27 | Win | 100 | 41 h 27 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Totals TKO* The Kentucky Wildcats beat Western Kentucky 14-3 in week one. Kentucky managed just 190 yards of total offense against a very questionable defense. Without Locke and Cobb Kentucky really lacks playmakers on offense. Central Michigan put up just 256 yards of total offense against South Carolina State last week. Kentucky's defense is a swarming defense, and I suspect the Chippewas will find it difficult to move the ball this week as well. Both teams will try to establish the run, but neither team is very good at running the ball. I expect a lot of punting in this one. Take the under.

*3 Star ATS Super Value Play* The Texas Longhorns are clearly in a different class than the Rice Owls. In the last eight years these teams have met seven times. The Longhorns have been favored by 28 points or more in every single game during that time. This year's line of -22.5 just seems far too low. The public perception of Texas is extremely low right now, which has allowed us to get a good value. Rice has one of the worst defenses in the nation. The Owls are awful against both the run and the pass. Last year, Texas beat Rice 34-17 on a neutral field. This Texas team should be much more motivated and ready to go in this one. I think they'll be out to prove a point here. Rice will have serious trouble moving the football here, and I think the Texas offense will surprise people by running up quite a few points. Take the Longhorns.

09-03-11 | South Carolina v. East Carolina OVER 62 | 56-37 | Win | 100 | 51 h 6 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Hidden GEM* The South Carolina Gamecocks offense is extremely good this year. Marcus Lattimore will be one of the best running backs in the country, and Alshon Jeffery might be the best reciever in the country. Stephen Garcia has gotten better each year and I expect him to have a solid season. East Carolina runs an uptempo offense and they air it out early and often. South Carolina allowed opponents to throw for 242 yards per game last year. Domonique Davis is a very good quarterback and I expect him to take advantage of the Gamecocks secondary. At the same time, East Carolina's defense was absolutely horrendous last year. By many different statistics, they had the worst defense in the entire nation in 2010. Navy scored 76 points on East Carolina while running all over them. Expect South Carolina to be able to do whatever they want in this one. East Carolina's last five games last season all went over the total, and they all finished with at least 71 points total. I think there is a lot of value on the over in this one.

09-03-11 | UCLA v. Houston OVER 61.5 | 34-38 | Win | 100 | 162 h 2 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Total Domination* The UCLA Bruins were bad last year, and Rick Neuheisel is definitely on the hot seat right now. The single biggest problem for UCLA last season was the weakness defensively. UCLA gave up 30.3 points per game last year. Houston suffered through a difficult season last year, but things should be much different with Case Keenum under center once again. Keenum is one of the nation's best quarterbacks and he'll instantly make this Houston offense great once again. Despite having their third string quarterback playing most of the year, Houston still averaged 37 points per game last year. Expect that number to go up quite a bit this season. Houston's front seven isn't very good at all defensively, and the UCLA Bruins can definitely run the football. Franklin is a very good back for the Bruins, and I expect him to do quite a bit of damage here. The over is 5-2 in UCLA's last 7 road games. The over is 7-1 in Houston's last 8 home games. Take the over.

09-01-11 | Mississippi State -27.5 v. Memphis | 59-14 | Win | 100 | 119 h 42 m | Show | |
*3 Star Opening Night Bookie Beatdown* The Memphis Tigers were definitely one of the worst teams in all of football last season. Coach Al Porter's first year in Memphis ended in a 1-11 season. There really weren't many near misses either. Memphis only lost one game by less than 15 points last season. It will be another very long season for the Memphis Tigers. They don't have a proven quarterback now that Ryan Williams (their best player from last year) left to go to Miami. Memphis has a terrible offensive line that will be dominated in this game. On the other side, Dan Mullen is taking the Bulldogs of Mississippi State in the right direction quickly. The Bulldogs return nine starters on offense and seven on defense. I expect Chris Relf to be a much improved quarterback this year. Chad Bumphis is one of the best play makers in the SEC, and he should have a field day in this one. I don't expect Memphis to be able to move the ball much at all here. Last year Mississippi State beat Memphis 49-7, and I expect a similar result this year. Take Mississippi State here.

02-06-11 | Pittsburgh Steelers v. Green Bay Packers UNDER 45.5 | 25-31 | Loss | -110 | 294 h 23 m | Show | |
*3 Star Super Bowl Bookie BEATDOWN* The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers will meet for Super Bowl 45. This should be a terrific game between two very deserving teams. The first thing that struck me about this game is how strong the two defenses are. The Steelers are first in the league in points per game allowed and the Packers are second.
Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers have a very good offense. I think the Packers will be able to throw the ball some on the Steelers, but in the end their lack of a running game against the top ranked rushing defense in the league will make them awfully one-dimensional. If the Packers are too one-dimensional the Steelers certainly have the front seven capable of getting after Rodgers. On other side, Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers offense is a more balanced attack. Rashard Mendenhall will probably get his yards here, and I think Pittsburgh will do their best to run it pretty often in this game. Green Bay has a great pass rush and the Steelers offensive line has struggled with teams like this all year. The Packers games with the Bears and the high-flying Eagles both stayed well under this total. The Steelers lit up the scoreboard against the Ravens, but their game with the Jets stayed under this posted total. The under is 5-1 in the last six Super Bowl games. I like the value on the under in this one! |

01-23-11 | NY Jets v. Pittsburgh Steelers -3.5 | 19-24 | Win | 100 | 92 h 51 m | Show | |
*3 Star Jets/Steelers Bookie SMASHER* The New York Jets have traveled to both Indianapolis and New England and pulled off improbable victories. The Jets have definitely been very impressive thus far in the postseason, especially on the defensive side of the football. Pittsburgh came from down 21-7 to defeat their AFC North rival, the Ravens, last week in Pittsburgh. Both teams are playing their best football of the season right now.
The Jets offense revolves around getting the running game going. Tomlinson and Greene are both very good running backs, and they are running behind a very talented offensive line. Mark Sanchez has been pretty inconsistent this year, and the Jets could be in trouble if they are forced to throw constantly at any point in the playoffs. The Steelers have gotten back to being a successful running team this year with Mendenhall leading the way. Ben Roethlisberger is a great playoff quarterback who does a terrific job making good decisions with the football. Mike Wallace has given this team a great deep threat, and Hines Ward is still one of the more reliable recievers in the league. This Steelers offense is multi-dimensonal right now. I expect the difference in this game to be the Steelers rushing defense, which is easily the best in the league. The Steelers will make it very tough for the Jets to control the ball the way they have against the Patriots and the Colts. Troy Polamalu may be the best defensive player in the NFL, and I expect him to make some huge plays for the Steelers in this one as well. The Steelers have been great at covering the number in the playoffs in recent history. The Steelers are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 playoff games. They are also 5-0 ATS in their last 5 playoff games at home. I think Roethlisberger gives the Steelers a big edge at quarterback, and this Steelers defense is the real deal. I like Pittsburgh to cover here. |

01-23-11 | Green Bay Packers v. Chicago Bears UNDER 44 | 21-14 | Win | 100 | 89 h 35 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFC Championship Total Knockout* The Green Bay Packers have put together a very impressive run in the playoffs thus far. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have probably been the most impressive team in the playoffs so far. The Chicago Bears defense is determined to make life much tougher on him this weekend. Make no mistake about it, there is no love lost between these two teams. This is a huge rivalry, and now it is for a bid to the Super Bowl.
Both defenses are very good. The Packers have the fifth ranked defense when it comes to yards allowed, but they are second in the NFL in points allowed at just 15 per game. What about the Bears? Chicago is excellent against the run, and they have improved throughout the year against the pass. The Bears are fourth in the NFL in points allowed at just 17.9 per game. The Packers offense is impressive right now, but they don't have much of a running game to keep the Bears honest. Chicago's offense really hasn't been impressive all year, but they have done what they need to do to win. In their two meetings earlier this year, the Bears won 20-17 at home, and the Packers won 10-3 on their home field. I was quite surprised to see the total at 44 in this one, since these teams have a nice history of low-scoring games. The under is 6-0 in the last 6 games between these two. Nine of their last ten meetings have finished under 44 points. I think the value here is on the under. Take the under in this NFC Championship Showdown! |

01-16-11 | NY Jets v. New England Patriots OVER 44 | 28-21 | Win | 100 | 15 h 29 m | Show | |
*3 Star Jets/Patriots Total DOMINATION* The New York Jets were absolutely humiliated last time in New England. One has to expect them to come out and play better than they did last time. The Jets have a solid running game, and the Patriots allow 108 rushing yards per game. Mark Sanchez is the type of guy that I think is good for an 'over' because he has big play ability, but he can also throw some picks that lead to defensive scores or great field position for the opponent.
Tom Brady and the Patriots offensive are absolutely firing on all cylinders right now. How good has the Patriots offense been? In the last eight games they are averaging 37 points per game. Their lowest point output in the last eight games was 31 points. The consistency of their production is truly amazing. The Jets defense is very good, but they have had some trouble against the pass at times this year, and I think New England's precision passing game will give them trouble. What about the trends for this one? The over is 12-4 in the Jets last 16 games overall. The over is 15-3 in the Patriots last 18 overall. The over is 8-1 in the Jets 9 road games this year. The over is 7-1 in the Patriots 8 home games this year. I think the Patriots are likely to get to at least 28 in this one, and I expect the Jets to put up a fight. I like the value on the over. Take the over in this one. |

01-15-11 | Green Bay Packers v. Atlanta Falcons OVER 43 | 48-21 | Win | 100 | 42 h 27 m | Show | |
*3 Star Green Bay/Atlanta GUARANTEED Cash* The Green Bay Packers and the Atlanta Falcons square off in what should be a terrific game in Atlanta Saturday night. The Falcons have been terrific at home. It is much publicized now that Matt Ryan has a 20-2 record at home in this three-year career. The Falcons beat the Packers 20-17 back on November 28th. Both teams moved the ball pretty well in that game, and I think the line here is low enough that the over is a solid value. Last time they played the over/under was set at 47.5. The Falcons defense has given up quite a few yards all year, but they have managed to give up only 18 points per game. I feel like Green Bay is the type of team that is playing well enough to capitalize on their opportunities in this one and put the ball in the end zone. Green Bay's defense is 2nd in the NFL in points per game allowed at just 15, but I think Atlanta's offense will be ready in this one. Michael Turner can do some damage against Green Bay, and Matt Ryan is definitely a clutch quarterback. With Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez, the Falcons have a couple very reliable weapons in the passing game. Both defenses are good, but I think these offenses will be able to put up more points than most people are expecting on Saturday. I like the over here.

01-10-11 | Oregon v. Auburn -2.5 | 19-22 | Win | 100 | 120 h 38 m | Show | |
*3 Star BCS Championship GUARANTEED Cash* The Auburn Tigers made it through the SEC unbeaten. There is little doubt that the SEC is the best football conference in the nation right now. Oregon is a very good team as well, but I don't think they have played nearly as tough of a schedule as Auburn. In this game we have two high-octane offenses squaring off against one another. LaMichael James and the Oregon rushing attack are extremely difficult to stop. Oregon averaged 49.3 points per game and they are the definition of a quick strike offense. A little known fact is that Auburn has a very good rushing defense. In fact, the Tigers have the seventh ranked rushing defense in the nation. I certainly don't expect Auburn to shut down the Oregon running game, but I think they'll do everything they can to make Oregon air it out in this one.
Darron Thomas is a good quarterback, but I'm not sure he is battle-tested the way Cameron Newton is. Auburn has the fifth ranked rushing offense in the nation, and they average 43 points per game. Many people forget, but Oregon's defense gave up 210 rushing yards to Arizona State midway through the year. They also allowed 597 total yards in that game. I think Auburn will have plenty of success on the ground in this one, and Cameron Newton is the type of play maker that can give this Oregon defense trouble. Last year, Terrelle Pryor had a huge game against the Ducks, and Newton should be able to do the same. I'm taking Auburn in this one, because I think they have the best player in college football and they played a tougher schedule all year long. I like Auburn to cover the spread. |

01-09-11 | Boston College v. Nevada UNDER 55 | 13-20 | Win | 100 | 126 h 20 m | Show | |
*3 Star Play of the Day* The Nevada Wolfpack have a great offense, but most people don't know about how great this Boston College defense is, especially against the run. Nevada can throw the ball when necessary, but make no mistake about it, they are a run first team. Boston College is first in the nation in rushing yards allowed per game. The Eagles allow only 73 yards per game on the ground. Even Virginia Tech had a tough time finding any room to run against this BC rushing defense. I suspect Nevada will have more luck with the run than most, because they have a great attack, but I still think the Eagles ability to stop the run will be key here. On offense Boston College is very weak. Boston College did not score more than 23 points in a game against a Division I opponent this year. The Eagles finished the regular season averaging 18.9 points per game. Nevada's run defense is solid, and I don't think BC has the ability to air it out on a consistent basis against the Wolfpack. The under is 5-0 in BC's last 5 games overall. The under is 12-1 in BC's last 13 non-conference games. I like the under a lot in this one.

01-09-11 | Baltimore Ravens -3 v. Kansas City Chiefs | 30-7 | Win | 100 | 66 h 0 m | Show | |
*3 Star Wildcard Weekend Best Play* The Baltimore Ravens are on the road once again in the playoffs, and they've had a lot of success in recent years in these situations. What about their body of work this year? The Ravens have been very good against good teams this year. Against teams above .500 they are 4-3, with their three losses coming by a combined 11 points. In each of those three losses they were at least tied late in the fourth quarter. What about the Chiefs? They did not beat a team all year that is above .500. Kansas City feasted on a pretty weak schedule. The Chiefs needed overtime to beat Buffalo at home, and they narrowly beat Denver at home as well. Last weekend's beatdown at the hands of the Raiders was hardly a good way to head into the playoffs. Baltimore is the veteran team here, and I think they'll be ready for this one. The Baltimore run defense is great, and I suspect they'll make Matt Cassel beat them with his arm. I think the Ravens win this one by a touchdown or more. Take Baltimore here.

01-08-11 | NY Jets v. Indianapolis Colts OVER 44.5 | 17-16 | Loss | -110 | 49 h 52 m | Show | |
*3 Star Wild Card Total DOMINATION* The New York Jets haven't been running the ball as well in the last few games, but I have a feeling they'll run it effectively against the Colts in this one. Indianapolis is 25th in the league against the run, and this Jets line is very good. At the same time, Peyton Manning has been playing very good football the last few weeks. As the Colts needed their wins, Peyton and this offense stepped it up a notch. The Colts are averaging 31 points per game in their last five games. The Colts running game has actually picked it up nicely of late as well, which should help keep the Jets honest. A healthy Joseph Addai is key to the Colts attack. The Jets are a big play team on both offense and defense. Even though they do have the third ranked defense in the NFL, they do allow some big plays. The offense and special teams have both been putting up the points of late as well. The Jets averaged 31 points per game in their last three contests. The over is 7-2 in the Jets last nine games. The over is 5-1-1 in the Colts last 7 games. The over is also 4-0 in the last four meetings between these two. I like the over in this Wild Card showdown.

01-02-11 | Carolina Panthers v. Atlanta Falcons UNDER 41 | 10-31 | Push | 0 | 41 h 13 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Play of the Week* The Carolina Panthers are just miserable on offense this year. In 10 of their 15 games so far this year they have scored 14 points or fewer. The Falcons held the Panthers to just ten points in their first meeting this season. This is definitely an important game to the Falcons, since they can clinch the top seed in the playoffs with a win. Jimmy Clausen will start for the Panthers at quarterback, and he hasn't shown the ability to do much yet. Carolina has the worst passing attack in the NFL. Carolina's running game is also slowed now because DeAngelo Williams is out and Johnathan Stewart is hobbled by a minor foot injury. I think Atlanta will take control of this game from the beginning and then they'll be looking to get out of here with all their players healthy. I think the Falcons defense will flex their muscles in this one. I like the under in this game.

01-01-11 | Connecticut v. Oklahoma OVER 54.5 | 20-48 | Win | 100 | 30 h 33 m | Show | |
*3 Star Fiesta Bowl Total DOMINATION* The UConn Huskies are the representative from the Big East in the BCS this year. No doubt this Huskies team is far weaker than the rest of the teams in the BCS, but they do have a very solid running game. Jordan Todman is one of the best backs in the nation, and Oklahoma is ranked 66th in the nation in stopping the run. On the other side of the ball, Oklahoma has a dynamic offense and I think they'll be able to put up points in a hurry in this game. UConn is the 47th ranked total defense in the nation, and they played a weak Big East schedule. Oklahoma's Landry Jones should have a huge game here, and I think DeMarco Murray might break some long runs as well. I like this game to be a high scoring affair. Take the over.

01-01-11 | TCU v. Wisconsin +130 | 21-19 | Loss | -100 | 25 h 28 m | Show | |
*3 Star Rose Bowl Moneyline Winner* The Wisconsin Badgers are playing their best football of the season at the right time. Wisconsin has been running the football better than anyone in the nation over the last few weeks. The domination of their offensive line is extremely impressive to watch. TCU has the nation's top ranked defense and they are ranked third against the run, but I really don't think they have faced a team even close to as strong as the Badgers. TCU's defense is fast, but Wisconsin's o-line should be able to push them off the ball. I think TCU will be able to run the ball on Wisconsin some as well, but I like Wisconsin's play makers on the outside better than TCU's. Lance Kendricks is probably the best tight end in America, and Tolzien is a very underrated quarterback. The Badgers are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games. I think they'll not only cover the spread, but win this game straight-up. Take the underdog in this year's Rose Bowl.

01-01-11 | Michigan v. Mississippi State -3.5 | 14-52 | Win | 100 | 22 h 58 m | Show | |
*3 Star ATS Play of the Day* The Michigan Wolverines have a very good offense this year, but their defense is absolutely awful. As someone who follows the Big Ten closely, i saw just how bad their defense was on a weekly basis. Mississippi State's Dan Mullen has done a brilliant job with this football program. They lost a great runner in Anthony Dixon, but they had a great running game again this year. The Bulldogs defense is also solid. They allowed just 17 points to Auburn and they held Florida to a single touchdown. Denard Robinson will definitely make some things happen for Michigan here, but I just don't think this Michigan defense can stop the Bulldogs running game here. The oddsmakers have been too high on Michigan for quite a while now. The Wolverines are just 10-26 ATS in their last 36 games overall. I like Mississippi State to cover here.

12-31-10 | Central Florida +7 v. Georgia | 10-6 | Win | 100 | 39 h 31 m | Show | |
*3 Star Liberty Bowl Bookie CRUSHER* The Central Florida Golden Knights have never won a bowl game. This team understands that this game is extremely important to the program. Georgia has played better in the late stages of the year, but I still don't like the fact that they haven't been able to stop the run all season long. UCF is a strong running team, and I think Ronnie Weaver will have a good game against a weak Bulldogs run defense. Jeff Godfrey has come in and done a solid job at quarterback for UCF as well, and he is a good game manager. The Golden Knights have a very good run defense, which should help make Georgia one-dimensional. This is a Central Florida team that has been undervalued by the books for a long time. They are 21-7 ATS in their last 28 games overall. UCF is also 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games as a 3.5 point to 10 point underdog. Take the underdog here.

12-30-10 | Washington v. Nebraska -13 | 19-7 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 53 m | Show | |
*3 Star Holiday Bowl Hot Winner* The Nebraska Cornhuskers are strong in the trenches and that is exactly what should propel them to win in this game. Earlier this year Nebraska dominated Washington in Seattle. The Cornhuskers gained 385 yards on the ground that game. Washington's run defense is terrible, and they have allowed 201 yards per game for the entire season. I don't expect the Huskies to be able to stop Taylor Martinez or the Nebraska running backs in this one either. Jake Locker is a talented quarterback, but this Nebraska defense swarms to the football and they will make his life very difficult in this one. Nebraska is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 bowl games and Bo Pellini definitely had this team ready for last year's bowl game. I look for Nebraska to run the ball down Washington's throat and win comfortably.

12-30-10 | Kansas State v. Syracuse UNDER 48.5 | 34-36 | Loss | -110 | 43 h 49 m | Show | |
*3 Star Bowl BEATDOWN* The Syracuse Orange are a team that has a very good defense, and a very poor offense. Kansas State's defense isn't very good, but they have a high quality running game. I think Syracuse will stack the box with eight men and force Kansas State to throw the football in this one. I don't believe Coffman is the type of quarterback who can just air it out consistently on Syracuse. Syracuse will look to establish the run here as well, and because of all the consistent runs, the clock should be ticking most of the way. Syracuse has only had two of their ten games against Division I schools go over 48 points this year. Kansas State plays in the high scoring Big 12, but I don't think they will be able to pile up the points in this one. The under is 8-0 in Syracuse's last 8 games with a winning record. I think Syracuse knows in order to win they must control the clock and run the ball. Look for the Orange to help this one stay under the posted total.

12-29-10 | Arizona v. Oklahoma State OVER 65.5 | 10-36 | Loss | -110 | 48 h 55 m | Show | |
*3 Star Alamo Bowl Total DOMINATION* This is a game where both teams have a great passing attack, and I expect the ball to be in the air a whole lot in this matchup. Oklahoma State has the second ranked passing attack in the nation, while Arizona has the ninth best passing attack. Oklahoma State's defense has been absolutely torched by the pass all year long. They are 115th out of 120 schools in Division I allowing 276 yards per game. Arizona's pass defense started the season out well, but they were not good at all in the last few games. The over is 5-1 in Arizona's last 6 games. The over is 4-0 in Oklahoma State's last 4 non-conference games. Both teams have big play guys on offense as well. Oklahoma State's Justin Blackmon will likely create some big plays here, and Juron Criner is a nice big play receiver for the Wildcats. I expect this one to go over the posted total as both passing games show just how effective they can be.

12-29-10 | East Carolina v. Maryland OVER 67.5 | 20-51 | Win | 100 | 18 h 49 m | Show | |
*3 Star Military Bowl Major CASH* You simply won't find a worse defense than the East Carolina Pirates. This defense allowed 43.4 points per game this year in a weak Conference USA. At the same time, the ECU offense is very good. The Pirates average 318 yards through the air each game, and they are scoring 38 points per game this year. Maryland's offense has scored 38 points or more in three of their last five contests, so I expect them to score plenty against a terrible ECU defense. Maryland's defense has been weak against the pass all year, which is bad news against the ECU offense. East Carolina's last five games have finished with totals of 84, 111, 96, 100, and 83 points! While 67.5 points seems like a lot, it really isn't when East Carolina is playing. I like this one to make it into the 70's. Take the over here.

12-28-10 | North Carolina State v. West Virginia -2.5 | 23-7 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 7 m | Show | |
*3 Star NC State/W. Virginia GUARANTEED Cash* The North Carolina State Wolfpack have had a nice season this year. Russell Wilson has done a great job at the quarterback spot. I think they are a formidable opponent, but I also think that West Virginia is the type of team that will give them a lot of trouble. NC State's passing attack piled up all kinds of yards against inferior defenses this year, but they struggled against the best defenses they played. Against UCF they gained just 105 yards through the air and against North Carolina they gained just 165 yards through the air. The West Virginia defense ranked fourth in the nation in yards allowed per play, and they get after the quarterback well. I expect them to put a lot of heat on Wilson and limit NC State's success in the passing game. On offense the Mountaineers should be able to throw it to Sanders and Austin on the outside, as NC State is quite weak at the corner positions. I like West Virginia to cover here.

12-26-10 | Indianapolis Colts v. Oakland Raiders OVER 46.5 | 31-26 | Win | 100 | 68 h 50 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Bookie SMASHER* The Indianapolis Colts offense seems to have turned it around the last few weeks. Peyton Manning is looking like the same terrific player he has the last few years, and the running game has even improved. The Colts defense is still weak against the run, and I think the Raiders will be able to exploit that with their terrific rushing game. Most people don't realize this Raiders offense is 8th in the NFL in total offense, and the rushing attack is the second best in the NFL this year. The Raiders have given up 28.4 points per game in their last five games, and the Colts have given up 30.8 per game in their last five games. Both teams need a win here, and I think the offenses will have the upper hand in this game. I like the over.

*3 Star NFL ATS Play of the Week* This is a classic case of one team having a ton to play for and the other having nothing to play for. Tennessee showed up with a good effort to exact revenge on Houston this week, but other than that game they haven't looked interested in the last few weeks. The Chiefs are atop the AFC West, but they know they can't afford to lose a game like this with the Chargers playing great football right now. The Chiefs are unbeaten at home this year, and while some of their games have been close, I think they'll win this one comfortably. Kansas City has the top rushing attack in the NFL, and Tennessee hasn't been very good against the run this year. Matt Cassel is back and healthy and I think the passing attack will give the Chiefs enough balance in this one. I like the Chiefs at home here.

12-26-10 | Washington Redskins v. Jacksonville Jaguars OVER 46 | 20-17 | Loss | -110 | 65 h 45 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The Washington Redskins have turned to Rex Grossman as their starting quarterback and I think that means more points in their games, both for them, and the opposition. Grossman will take more chances with the football, which should lead to plenty of points. The Redskins defense is the worst in the NFL, and I expect Jones-Drew and the Jaguars rushing attack to have a field day in this one. At the same time, the Jaguars defense is one of the worst in the NFL against the pass, which means the Redskins should have chances to score as well. The over is 7-1 in the Jaguars last 8 games overall. The Redskins game against the Cowboys last week showed what their offense could look like with Grossman, which is both good and bad. I like the over in this one.

The Warriors and their high-powered offense will take on a Tulsa team that is capable of scoring points in bunches as well. This game should be exciting from start to finish. In Tulsa's last game they pulled off a 56-50 victory over Southern Miss. The good news for Tulsa is they have a very balanced attack on offense. They are the 14th best rushing attack in the nation and the 16th best passing offense. The bad news for Tulsa is they are awful against the pass, and Hawaii is easily the number one ranked passing attack in the country. Tulsa is allowing 306 yards per game through the air for the year. Bryant Moniz is a great quarterback for this Hawaii offensive system, and the Warriors have two great receivers. I really believe Hawaii could score 50 points in this one by themselves, and Tulsa's balanced offense should be able to put up plenty to cover the over. Don't be surprised if this one goes over 80 points. Take the over here.

12-21-10 | Louisville v. Southern Mississippi OVER 56.5 | 31-28 | Win | 100 | 42 h 49 m | Show | |
*3 Star CFB Beef O'Brady's Bowl BEATDOWN* The Southern Miss Golden Eagles have been on my radar all year long. The Golden Eagles have a very good offense which is extremely balanced. They average 461 yards per game, 255 through the air and 206 on the ground. The Golden Eagles average 37.6 points per game. Louisville has a very good running game this year. At first glance the Southern Miss defense looks great against the run (13th in the nation), but they have performed poorly against the top running teams they have played this year. Tulsa averaged 6.7 yards per carry and South Carolina averaged 6.4 yards per carry. I think Louisville will be able to move the ball well against a banged up and mediocre Southern Miss defense. In the same manner, Louisville has a top ranked (9th in the nation) pass defense, but who have they played? The Big East conference has no great passing games, and I fully believe this will be the best passing team they have played yet. I expect both teams to score plenty in this one. Take the over.
