2008-09 NBA Wagering Preview – Miami Heat
The Miami Heat (15-67 SU, 35-46-1 ATS, 37-43-2 O/U), took a huge step backwards last season, going a pitiful 15-67 just one season after posting a respectable 44-38 record.

When last we saw the Atlanta Hawks (37-45 SU, 37-44-1 ATS, 42-40 O/U), they were scaring the bejesus out of the Boston Celtics, running the defending champions unmercifully at home before falling in seven games.
The USC Trojans opened up the college football betting weekend with a bang by losing to Oregon State and their tattooed quarterback. Georgia had the door wide open to take the top spot in the country, only to have the door slammed in a bloody nose by the Crimson Tide. Then Florida, of all teams, loses to Mississippi. So who’s on top of the mountain now?
The Navy Midshipmen (3-2 SU, 2-2 ATS, 1-3 O/U), beat 16th-ranked Wake Forest 24-17 on Saturday to record their first victory over a nationally ranked opponent in 23 years.
After watching the USC Trojans (2-1 SU, 2-1 ATS, 0-2-1 O/U), get their rear ends handed to them in last week’s 27-21 road loss to Oregon State, I am surprised that Southern Cal is giving so many points to a talented Oregon Ducks (4-1 SU, 3-2 ATS, 3-2 O/U), team that is coming off a thorough 63-14 rout of beleaguered Washington on Saturday.
The Pittsburgh Panthers (3-1 SU, 0-4 ATS) haven’t covered the pointspread yet this season. On Thursday night they will try to do that, and then some, as they visit Tampa to play the South Florida Bulls (5-0 SU, 1-3 ATS) in Big East NCAA college football action that is set to get underway at 7:30 PM ET at Raymond James Stadium (natural turf).

The Florida Atlantic Owls (1-3, 2-2 ATS) returned 18 starters from last year’s Sun Belt championship team and once again played an ambitious non-conference schedule.
The Milwaukee Brewers turned their September around by winning six of their last seven games but do they have anything left in the tank?
