11-01-11 | Northern Illinois v. Toledo OVER 67 | 63-60 | Win | 100 | 42 h 46 m | Show | |
*3 Star Tuesday Night Total Domination* The Northern Illinois Huskies hung 65 points on the Toledo Rockets last year. Don't think for a minute that Toledo has forgotten that game. Toledo may have the most talented team in the MAC this year, but they are still weak defensively. They have yet to face a team that can run the ball the way Northern Illinois can, and I think the Huskies will roll up a lot of yards again this year. On the other side, Toledo's offense is full of play makers, and they average 36.5 points per contest. Northern Illinois is much worse defensively this year. The Huskies allowed Kansas to score 45 points and Central Michigan to score 48 points. Those two offenses aren't good at all, and Toledo should be able to move the ball at will agaisnt Northern Illinois. The over is 9-4 in Northern Illinois' last 13 games. The over is 5-1 in Toledo's last 6 home games. Take the over.

10-30-11 | Dallas Cowboys v. Philadelphia Eagles UNDER 51 | 7-34 | Win | 100 | 91 h 24 m | Show | |
*3 Star Sunday Night Total Knockout* The Dallas Cowboys defense has really gotten a nice boost from Rob Ryan taking over as their coordinator. Ryan has this team showing their opponents a lot of new formations. Dallas even held New England to just 20 points. Philadelphia's offense is not firing on all cylinders right now. Mike Vick is making too many mistakes with the football. On the other side, the Eagles secondary seems to be coming together over the last couple games. The Eagles are a stunning 13-3 to the under coming off a bye week. Look for this to be a lower scoring game than most expect. Take the under.

10-30-11 | Minnesota Vikings v. Carolina Panthers OVER 47.5 | 24-21 | Loss | -107 | 107 h 54 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total Domination* The Minnesota Vikings got a much needed offensive boost last week when Christian Ponder took over the starting quarterback job. Ponder completed some deep balls to stretch the defense and give Adrian Peterson more room to run. Carolina's defense is terrible against the run, and Peterson may well be the best running back in the NFL. On the other side, Carolina's offense is fifth in the NFL in total offense. Cam Newton and this offense have been good against everyone they have played this year. Minnesota is allowing 25.4 points per game this year. Expect both teams to move the ball quite a bit in this one. I like the value on the over.

|||||||
10-29-11 | Arizona v. Washington Huskies OVER 69.5 | 31-42 | Win | 100 | 51 h 17 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Late Night Bailout* Arizona's Nick Foles is one of the better quarterbacks in the nation. Foles is completing 71% of his passes and he has 18 touchdowns and just 5 interceptions this year. Keith Price has come in and lit it up as Washington's new quarterback. Price has an amazing 22 touchdowns and just 5 picks. Washington is averaging 35 points per game. Arizona is averaging 30 points per game. Arizona's defense is 114th out of 120 teams in pass defense. Washington is 110th out of 120 in pass defense. This game has shootout written all over it. The over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings between these two teams. Take the over.

|||||||
10-29-11 | Nevada v. New Mexico State OVER 59 | 48-34 | Win | 100 | 68 h 37 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Total Knockout* Nevada runs the Pistol offense, and they generally do it very well. The team had some trouble getting going early this year, but Chris Ault has this offense rolling at this point. They have scored 37. 49, and 45 in the last three games. New Mexico State is giving up 30.3 points per game, and Nevada will be one of the best offenses they have faced this year. New Mexico State's offense is much improved this year, and I expect them to be able to score several times as well. The over is 4-0 in New Mexico State's last 4 games. The over is 5-1 in the last 6 games between these teams. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-29-11 | South Carolina v. Tennessee UNDER 44 | 14-3 | Win | 100 | 67 h 52 m | Show | |
*3 Star SEC Total Takedown* South Carolina is a much different team without Marcus Lattimore. Tennessee isn't even close to the same team without Tyler Bray. Both of these teams are missing their most important offensive player. South Carolina's defense has given up 3, 16, 3, and 12 points in their last four games. Tennessee's defense is good against the pass, and South Carolina will likely struggle to run without Lattimore. I expect both offenses to look lost without their key players in this one. This one will likely be an ugly contest. Expect a low scoring affair. Take the under.
|
|||||||
10-29-11 | Hawaii v. Idaho OVER 57 | 16-14 | Loss | -110 | 113 h 0 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Top Total* The Idaho Vandals secondary is horrible, and Hawaii is the perfect team to expose that weakness. Moniz and the Warriors offense should carve up the Idaho secondary all day long. It wouldn't surprise me to see Hawaii put up 40 points in this one. Idaho's offense has been improving a bit of late, and I expect them to be able to move it through the air against a mediocre Hawaii defense. Expect both teams to air it out early and often, which should help give both teams chances to put points up in bunches. I expected this total to be set in the low 60's, so I like the value here. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-29-11 | Buffalo v. Miami (OH) OVER 48 | 13-41 | Win | 100 | 86 h 37 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals TKO* The Buffalo Bulls offense has improved as the season has moved along. Anderson gives the Bulls a solid quarterback that can throw it around. In fact, last week he threw for more than 400 yards against Northern Illinois. Miami (OH) and Buffalo both have poor defenses that give up the big play quite often. A total set this low is generally indicative of two good defenses, but that just isn't the case here. The over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings between these teams at Miami (OH). I expect both teams to get into the mid 20's here. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-27-11 | Rice v. Houston OVER 70.5 | 34-73 | Win | 100 | 20 h 32 m | Show | |
*3 Star Thursday Night Total Domination* The Rice Owls defense has been among the worst in the nation in each of the last three years. Rice is allowing 33 points per game this year. Houston has the number one offense in all of college football. The Cougars are first in yards per game and points per game. Houston averages 49 points per game. This is the type of game where I truly expect Houston to score at least 50 points. Case Keenum and his receivers should carve up this Rice secondary. At the same time, Rice has some play makers on offense and the Houston defense simply isn't very good. The over is 38-14 in Rice's last 52 road games. The over is 19-7 in Houston's last 26 games. This combined 57-21 angle strongly supports an over play. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-24-11 | Baltimore Ravens v. Jacksonville Jaguars UNDER 40 | 7-12 | Win | 100 | 7 h 58 m | Show | |
*3 Star Monday Night Football Bookie SMASHER* The Baltimore Ravens defense is built to stop the run. Haloti Ngata and Terrance Cody are terrific at clogging up the running lanes. Jacksonville is a team that can't do much passing at all right now. The Ravens should load up the box and stuff Jones-Drew and the Jags running attack tonight. On the other side, I expect the Jaguars defense to play some inspired football under the Monday Night Football lights. The under is 5-0 in the Jaguars last 5 Monday night games. Expect both defenses to play well. Take the under in this one.
|
|||||||
10-23-11 | Atlanta Falcons v. Detroit Lions OVER 47 | 23-16 | Loss | -105 | 116 h 16 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Totals TKO* The Atlanta Falcons have started running the football better of late, and that should help them a lot in this game. Atlanta's balance on offense should keep the Lions defense on their heels. At the same time, Matt Stafford and this Lions passing attack should fare well against a secondary that is struggling right now. I don't see anyone on the Falcons roster that can slow down Calvin Johnson. This one should stay close throughout, and both offenses should move the chains consistently. The over is 13-5-1 in the Lions last 19 games. The over is 6-1-1 in the Falcons last 8 road games. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-23-11 | San Diego Chargers v. NY Jets UNDER 44.5 | 21-27 | Loss | -110 | 116 h 9 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total Domination* The New York Jets defense played well Monday, albeit against a poor Miami Dolphins offense. The Jets secondary is the best in the NFL though, and I think they'll make life tough on Phillip Rivers and the Chargers passing attack here. The Chargers really don't have a dominating running game to pound down the throats of the Jets. San Diego's defense is pretty good, and at this point I consider the Jets offense below average. I expect the defenses to get the best of the offenses in this one. I think the value is on the under in this one.
|
|||||||
10-22-11 | Tulsa v. Rice OVER 59 | 38-20 | Loss | -110 | 120 h 26 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals Takedown* The Rice Owls have had a bad defense for several straight years now. Tulsa actually scored 64 points on Rice last season. The Rice Owls defense is 115th out of 120 teams in college football in total defense. Tulsa has a solid balanced offense led by quarterback G.J. Kinne. On the other side of the ball, Tulsa's defense is giving up 32 points per game, and they are awful against the pass. Taylor McHargue is improving as the season moves along, and Rice does have some play makers on the offensive side of the ball. The over is 59-23 in Rice's last 82 games overall. The over is 8-1 in the last 9 meetings between these two teams. Take the over.
|
|||||||
10-22-11 | Army v. Vanderbilt UNDER 45 | Top | 21-44 | Loss | -110 | 101 h 12 m | Show |
*5 Star Top Play Total Knockout* Army runs the ball more than any other team in the nation. They are dead last in passing offense in the nation, and that will hurt them against this Vanderbilt defense. The Commodores have a strong front seven with a great group of linebackers that should do well against the triple option. Army won't abandon the run, but I don't think they'll be as successful as usual with the run either. Vanderbilt's offense averages just 21.7 points per game, and they really don't have much firepower. The Commodores will try to run the ball as much as possible in this one as well. The clock should be ticking a lot in this one, and both defenses will stack the box and dare the other team to throw. Two years ago these teams played to 16-13 overtime game. The under is 21-9-1 in Vanderbilt's last 31 home games. Take the under.
|
|||||||
10-22-11 | East Carolina v. Navy OVER 64.5 | Top | 38-35 | Win | 100 | 118 h 44 m | Show |
*5 Star Top Play of the Month* East Carolina's run defense is absolutely terrible. They were dead last in the nation in rushing defense last year, and I expect them to finish near the bottom again this year. Navy ran for 521 yards against East Carolina last year on their way to a 76-35 win. Navy's triple option is tough for everyone to stop, and I simply don't think the Pirates have the personnel to stop it at all. On the other side, Navy doesn't typically play teams with a strong passing attack. East Carolina's Dominique Davis is a good passer who should put up big numbers against the Navy secondary. Last year he threw for 5 touchdowns and 413 yards against Navy. I don't see many punts at all in this game. The over is 9-3 in East Carolina's last 12 road games. The over is 6-1 in Navy's last 7 home games. Expect the points to pile up quickly in this one. 5 Star Play Of the Month on the over!

|||||||
10-22-11 | Western Michigan v. Eastern Michigan OVER 56 | 10-14 | Loss | -110 | 90 h 33 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals TKO* Western Michigan has the MAC's best quarterback in Alex Carder. Carder shredded up this Eastern Michigan defense last year by passing for 349 yards and 4 touchdowns while throwing no interceptions. Eastern Michigan has yet to face a team with a good passing game this year, and I expect their secondary to be picked apart once again. On the other side of the ball, Western Michigan is allowing 217 rushing yards per game. Eastern Michigan runs the ball well (10th in the nation in rushing yards) and I expect them to exploit this weakness in the Broncos defense. The over is 4-0 in Eastern Michigan's last 4 conference games. The over is 4-1 in Western Michigan's last 5 games. Take the over.

|||||||
10-22-11 | Wake Forest v. Duke OVER 59 | Top | 24-23 | Loss | -110 | 114 h 44 m | Show |
*5 Star Top Play Early Bird Special* Wake Forest is a team that has surprised quite a few people this year. The Deamon Deacons have done it largely because of the impressive play of quarterback Tanner Price. Price has thrown 12 touchdowns and just three picks this season. Three of his receivers already have at least 25 catches. Duke's defense allows 272 yards per game through the air, and I expect Price to find plenty of open receivers. Duke's Sean Renfree is a solid quarterback as well. Duke can move the ball in the air against weak secondaries, and I think Wake Forest fits in that category. Last year when these teams met the final was 54-48. Two years ago the final was 45-34. The last four meetings have all gone safely over the posted total. I expect both teams to air it out early and often in this one. Expect a high scoring affair. 5 Star Top Play on the over in this one.

|||||||
10-16-11 | Houston Texans v. Baltimore Ravens UNDER 45 | 14-29 | Win | 100 | 124 h 38 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The Houston Texans have a pretty good offense, but without Andre Johnson stretching the defense, the offense is not nearly as dynamic. The Baltimore defense is first in the NFL in points allowed per game this year at just 14.2 ppg. Houston is one of the most improved defenses in the NFL this year thanks to a much better secondary. The Texans linebackers are all over the field. Baltimore has a great front seven as well with Cody, Ngata, Lewis, Suggs, etc. I think this line is inflated a bit because of Houston's results from last year. This is a much better Houston defense this year. Expect a grind it out type of game here. Take the under.
|
|||||||
10-16-11 | Buffalo Bills v. NY Giants OVER 50 | 24-27 | Win | 100 | 44 h 13 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total Knockout* The Buffalo Bills have been one of the biggest surprises in the NFL this year. The Bills offense is successful because they are so balanced. Jackson is dangerous at the running back spot, and Fitzpatrick can throw it around quite well. The Giants defense has some key injuries right now, and I think Buffalo should score quite a few here. At the same time, the Buffalo defense isn't very good. Shawne Merriman will miss this game, and New York should have a good chance at establishing a running game. Eli Manning has some weapons at wide receiver, and I expect them to get open against a poor secondary. The over is 6-0 in Buffalo's last 6 games. The over is 5-1-1 in the Giants last 7 home games. Take the over.

|||||||
10-15-11 | Georgia v. Vanderbilt UNDER 41.5 | 33-28 | Loss | -112 | 65 h 26 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Total Value* The Georgia Bulldogs have really turned it on since their 0-2 start. Georgia has been doing it with some superb defense. The Bulldogs are allowing just 8.75 points per game in their last four contests. Vanderbilt has a terrible offense that just can't seem to find its way. The Commodores put up 3 points against South Carolina and they were blanked by Alabama. On the other side, Vanderbilt actually has a very good defense. The Commodores are ranked in the top 30 in the nation in every major defensive category. Expect both defenses to flex their muscles here. Take the under.
|
|||||||
10-15-11 | East Carolina v. Memphis OVER 56 | 35-17 | Loss | -106 | 48 h 45 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Total Knockout* East Carolina's offense was one of the most dynamic in all of college football last year. This year they are averaging just 20 points per game. Dominique Davis and this East Carolina offense might not be quite as good this year, but they are due for a breakout game. What better team to breakout against than a terrible Memphis Tigers team? The Memphis defense is allowing 495 yards and 37 points per game. East Carolina's defense is terrible as well, and even a weak Memphis offense should put up several points on them. The Pirates are allowing 37 points per game as well. I expect this one to get safely over the posted total.
|
|||||||
10-15-11 | Virginia Tech v. Wake Forest OVER 49 | 38-17 | Win | 100 | 43 h 18 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Totals Takedown* Wake Forest has really put themselves on the map with their win over Florida State last week. This is a Wake Forest team that can really move the football through the air. Virginia Tech has a great run defense, but the secondary is a bit vulnerable. On the other side, Wake Forest's defense isn't ready for the bigtime yet. Logan Thomas is coming off an unreal 23/25 performance against a good Miami defense. Both offenses should have success in this one. The over is 10-3 in Wake Forest's last 13 home games. Take the over in this matchup.
|
|||||||
10-15-11 | UTEP v. Tulane OVER 57 | 44-7 | Loss | -110 | 44 h 15 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA FB Top Total* The UTEP Miners picked up a very good quarterback in Nick Lamaison. The Miners passing game has gotten better each game this year. Tulane's secondary simply isn't very good and I expect UTEP to take advantage of that. At the same time, UTEP's defense is very poor. Tulane's Ryan Griffin has improved quite a bit this year, and I expect the Green Wave to put up quite a few points this weekend. UTEP allows 33 points per contest. Tulane's defense allows 34 points per contest. I expect the defenses to make the offenses look good in this one. The over is 5-1 in Tulane's last 6 home games. Take the over.
|
|||||||
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 | 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.
|
|||||||
10-08-11 | 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 | 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.
|
|||||||
10-06-11 | 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.

|||||||
10-02-11 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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.

|||||||
09-17-11 | 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 | 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.
|
|||||||
09-10-11 | 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 | 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 | 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.
|
|||||||
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.

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 | 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.

01-09-11 | 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.

*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.

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.

12-26-10 | 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.

|||||||
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.

|||||||
12-24-10 | Tulsa v. Hawaii OVER 73.5 | 62-35 | Win | 100 | 43 h 51 m | Show | |
*3 Star Hawaii Bowl BEATDOWN* The Hawaii Warriors will get to host a bowl game once again this year. 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.

12-19-10 | Jacksonville Jaguars v. Indianapolis Colts OVER 48 | 24-34 | Win | 100 | 113 h 27 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* It should be no secret by now that the Indianapolis run defense is not any good. Jacksonville knows how to exploit this defense, as they have shown in recent meetings with the Colts. The Jaguars are averaging 179 yards per game on the ground in their last eight games against the Colts. At the same time, Peyton Manning has thrown for more than 300 yards in three of the last four meetings with Jacksonville's defense. The over is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings between these two teams. The over is 10-3 in the Colts 13 games this year and 8-4-1 in the Jags games this season. There is a good chance some of the starters will be back for the Colts in this matchup and Manning will have some extra weapons. Both quarterbacks have thrown a lot of picks this year, so don't be surprised if the defense scores in this one as well. I like the over in this game.

12-19-10 | Philadelphia Eagles v. NY Giants OVER 46 | 38-31 | Win | 100 | 92 h 31 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Bookie CRUSHER* The Philadelphia Eagles have had the best offense in the NFL over the last five weeks. Mike Vick is throwing the ball as well as ever and McCoy is proving to be the real deal in the backfield. The Eagles are averaging 35.2 points per game in their last five games. The Giants defense is solid, but at this point I believe the Eagles can move and score quite a few on everyone in the league. Philadelphia's defense is allowing 26 points per game on the road this year. The Giants running game has gotten going of late and I expect them to be productive again on Sunday. This may well be the biggest game of the week as both of these teams enter at 9-4. The over is 8-1 in the Eagles last 9 and 8-3 in the Giants last 11 games at home. I expect the offenses to have the upper hand all throughout this game. Take the over here.

12-19-10 | New Orleans Saints v. Baltimore Ravens OVER 43.5 | 24-30 | Win | 100 | 91 h 27 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total Knockout* The single biggest takeaway from the Ravens game with the Texans last Monday night for me was that this Ravens defense isn't even close to the level they used to be. The secondary is fairly weak, and the front seven wear down by the fourth quarter as well. The New Orleans Saints offense may have started a bit slowly this year, but they are absolutely on fire of late. The Saints have scored at least 30 points in each of their last five games. The passing attack ranks third in the NFL, and I think they'll exploit the Ravens secondary in this game. Baltimore has been a little better offensively at home this year, and I think their trio of great wide receivers will be a mismatch against the Saints as well. Ray Rice is bound to have a breakout game soon, and I think it could be here. I think the line is set too low here, and I'm taking the over.

12-12-10 | Philadelphia Eagles v. Dallas Cowboys OVER 50.5 | 30-27 | Win | 100 | 53 h 27 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Sunday Night Bookie BASHER* The Eagles and Cowboys probably have the two hottest offenses in the NFL right now. If you look back a few weeks it is hard to imagine saying the Cowboys offense is good, but they have averaged 33.25 points per game in their last four games. Jason Garrett is now the head coach and this team seems to have changed their game plan a bit since then. The Eagles continue to roll on the offensive end behind some terrific quarterback play from Mike Vick. The Eagles have scored 26 points or more in seven of their last eight games overall. The Cowboys defense is allowing 28 points per game. The over is 7-1 in the Eagles last eight games. The over is 8-0 in the Cowboys last 8 games. This is a pretty high number, but I think we'll see a game that hits at least the mid 50's. Take the over here.

12-12-10 | Cleveland Browns v. Buffalo Bills UNDER 39.5 | 6-13 | Win | 100 | 46 h 16 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Bookie CRUSHER* The Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills are no strangers to ugly low-scoring games. Last year the Browns beat the Bills 6-3 in what may have been the worst game of the year to watch. This year there is a major weather system that will impact this game. Buffalo is expected to be getting snow and 15-20 mph winds during this game. Since it is right by the lake, the conditions can deteriorate rapidly here. I fully expect this to be a game where both teams rely on their running game, because the conditions won't allow much passing. The under is 5-1 in the Bills last 6 home games in December, largely because of the poor weather that occurs here. This weekend we have two teams with suspect offenses and bad weather conditions. I'll take the under.

|||||||
12-12-10 | Cincinnati Bengals v. Pittsburgh Steelers UNDER 40 | 7-23 | Win | 100 | 46 h 10 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The Pittsburgh Steelers have the best run defense in the NFL. Pittsburgh is under a winter storm watch for Sunday because they are expected to receive several inches of snow and high winds. The Bengals rushing game is not impressive at all, and I think Cincinnati will struggle to score in this game. Inclement conditions will likely make the Steelers willing to just run the ball and methodically score on the Bengals, eating up a lot of time in the process. With winds of 15-20 mph and heavy snow at times, I fully expect this to be a low scoring game. The Steelers defense will flex their muscles against a weak Bengals running game and this one will likely be a snoozer. Take the under and expect the weather to impact this game in a major way.

12-11-10 | Navy v. Army UNDER 53.5 | 31-17 | Win | 100 | 15 h 4 m | Show | |
*3 Star Army/Navy Bookie CRUSHER* The great rivalry between Army and Navy will be played on Saturday and I expect a hard hitting battle. These two teams have the utmost respect for each other, but they love nothing more than to defeat the other squad. Both teams run the football extremely well, and neither of them throw it much at all. That fact alone helps the under since the clock will be rolling almost all game long. Additionally, Army is much better this year than in the past, and their run defense is in the top 35 nationwide, so I expect a closer game than in past years. The fact that both teams understand the triple option very well helps them defend it better than the average team. The under is 4-0 in the last 4 games and I believe the under is the best play for Saturday as well.

12-05-10 | Dallas Cowboys v. Indianapolis Colts OVER 47.5 | 38-35 | Win | 100 | 50 h 28 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Bookie CRUSHER* The Dallas Cowboys have definitely played better football since Jason Garrett took over as Head Coach. The Cowboys offense seems to have found their rhythm once again. Dallas has scored 33,35, and 27 points in their last three games. Indianapolis is now just 6-5, and they need this game badly. The Colts have the #1 passing attack in the NFL, which should be good for them in this matchup. Dallas is 23rd in the NFL against the pass. The Cowboys defense has been terrible this year. The over is 8-0 in the last 8 Cowboys games, mainly because they are giving up 32 points per game over their last six games. Peyton Manning will be ready for this game, and I think the Colts will move the ball quite easily against this Dallas defense. At the same time, the Colts defense is not great, and I think this improved Cowboys offense will find some success against Indianapolis. I like the over in this one.

12-05-10 | Denver Broncos v. Kansas City Chiefs OVER 48.5 | 6-10 | Loss | -110 | 47 h 58 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total DOMINATION* The Denver Broncos have been giving up points by the bunches in the last few games. In fact, they are allowing an amazing 36.6 points per game over their last five contests. Kansas City has found their offense of late, and they have scored 29, 31, and 42 points in their last three games. The Chiefs have the top ranked rushing attack in the NFL, and Denver is 30th in the NFL at stopping the run. Matt Cassel and Dwayne Bowe have heated up of late too, so this KC offense is becoming balanced. Denver's pass offense is fourth in the NFL, and the Chiefs are 24th in pass defense. The over is 6-1 in the last 7 meetings between these two teams. In the last three meetings, the finals have been 44-13, 44-24, and 49-29. I think there is a good amount of value on the over in this one. Take the over here!

12-04-10 | Nebraska v. Oklahoma UNDER 53 | 20-23 | Win | 100 | 29 h 48 m | Show | |
*3 Star Nebraska/Oklahoma Play* This will be the Nebraska Cornhuskers final game in the Big 12 Conference. Nebraska will definitely be looking to complete some unfinished business after their last second loss to Texas in this game last year. Oklahoma is a team that looks much better in their last few games. There are some key injuries in this game. Taylor Martinez and DeMarco Murray are both questionable in this one. My guess is that both will play at least some, but they are both hurt pretty badly and I think that will make them less effective than normal. Oklahoma is very reliant on their passing attack, and Nebraska has the second best pass defense in all of college football. I expect Nebraska to pressure Landry Jones and make things difficult for him. On the other side, Nebraska relies on their running game. I think Oklahoma will do their best to stack the box and make Nebraska throw it in this one. A hobbled Martinez will make it more difficult for Nebraska to be effective running the ball. These two teams played to a 10-3 final last year. A game of this magnitude often stays lower scoring as well, as the Texas/Nebraska game last year did. I like the under in this one.

12-04-10 | Washington Huskies v. Washington State Cougars UNDER 54.5 | 35-28 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 22 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Bookie BEATDOWN* The Washington Huskies and the Washington State Cougars will battle for the Apple Cup in Pullman on Saturday night. It has been cold and snowy all week in Pullman, and it is expected to be very cold again Saturday night. This is a pretty good rivalry game that most people don't follow very closely. The Huskies offense has struggled of late, scoring just 14 points per game in their last five overall. Washington State relies on the passing game, and Washington's secondary is solid. The Huskies are allowing only 193 passing yards per game this year. In the last two years the total has finished at 30 and 29 points when these two have met. I expect this to be a close hard-fought game, and I think the value is on the under.

12-04-10 | Oregon v. Oregon State OVER 64 | 37-20 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 52 m | Show | |
*3 Star College Football Total DOMINATION* The Oregon Ducks have the highest powered offense in college football. Oregon State's defense has been terrible this year, especially of late. Oregon will definitely want to keep putting up the points in this rivalry game, and I think they could easily get to 45 or 50 points in this one. Oregon State will playing in front of the home crowd, and I expect Quizz Rodgers and the rest of the offense to put some points up against Oregon. The history between these two is for this game to be an absolute shootout. The over is 8-0 in the last 8 meetings between these two teams. Oregon State's poor rushing defense should get exposed by the Oregon Ducks amazing running game. I think this is the type of game where there will be a ton of huge plays. I like the over here.

|||||||
11-28-10 | Tennessee Titans v. Houston Texans OVER 46.5 | 0-20 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 35 m | Show | |
*3 Star NFL Total Domination* It's tough to put into words just how bad this Houston secondary is, but I'll give it a try. Houston is allowing 308 yards through the air each game. That is 17 yards per game more than the Atlanta Falcons allowed in 1995. Those Falcons are currently in the record books as having allowed more passing yards than anyone in NFL history. The Texans look like they will shatter that mark. Rusty Smith is making his first start here, but he is a better passer than Vince Young. I think Randy Moss will make his presence felt in this game, against a terrible secondary. On the other side, the Texans have a very good offense, and they should be able to move the ball consistently against a mediocre Titans defense. Houston has allowed at least 27 points in every single game this year, which is quite amazing. I think we're getting a good value on the over in this one.

11-27-10 | Wake Forest v. Vanderbilt UNDER 50 | 34-13 | Win | 100 | 119 h 55 m | Show | |
*3 Star NCAA Football Total DOMINATION* The Vanderbilt Commodores have done a nice job competing this season. Their head coach quit just days before the season and the team has very little offense, but the defense fights hard. Wake Forest and Vanderbilt both are lacking quite badly at the skill positions on offense, as evidenced by their recent offensive outputs. In their last three games, Vanderbilt is averaging 14.7 points per game. Wake Forest is averaging just 8.7 points per game in that time span. I don't expect either team to establish much of a consistent offense in this one, but there will probably be some points scored because of turnovers. I think the oddsmakers set this one too high. A game with two teams that are dreadful offensively looks like a nice opportunity on the under to me.
|
|||||||
11-27-10 | South Carolina v. Clemson UNDER 45 | 29-7 | Win | 100 | 118 h 25 m | Show | |
*3 Star Early Bird Special* The Clemson Tigers have had an interesting season. The defense has risen up and played extremely well. The offense has been disappointing. This combination has led to seven straight Clemson games going under the posted total. In fact, the highest total score of those seven games was 40 points. South Carolina has struggled badly against good passing offenses, but Clemson doesn't have the weapons to air it out consistently against the Gamecocks. I look for both teams to try to establish the running game in this one, which will keep the clock rolling. South Carolina has already wrapped up the SEC East, and Clemson will be fired up for this one, so I expect a close game that goes down to the wire. The books still haven't adjusted enough for Clemson's recent trends toward the under. Take the under here.

11-27-10 | UAB v. Rice OVER 67 | 23-28 | Loss | -105 | 19 h 9 m | Show | |
*3 Star CFB Hidden GEM* The Rice Owls are the best 'over' team in all of college football over the last few years. The over is 57-18 in their last 75 games overall. It's hard to believe a trend could continue that long for one team, but it just keeps on going. The over is 31-8 in their last 39 conference games. Taylor McHargue has taken over as the Owls starting quarterback, and he looked great in his first start last week. McHargue was a highly touted recruit, and much is expected of him. Rice racked up more than 600 yards of offense last week and scored 62 points. The UAB offense is all about the passing game, which is a good thing against Rice. Rice has the single worst pass defense in college football this year. The Owls are allowing 309 yards per game through the air. The Rice defense has allowed at least 38 points in each of their last four games. UAB will be able to put up a lot of points here, and Rice's new quarterback should help them make this game an all out track meet. Take the over.

11-27-10 | Kentucky v. Tennessee OVER 58 | 14-24 | Loss | -110 | 112 h 44 m | Show | |
*3 Star CFB Bookie CRUSHER* The Kentucky Wildcats have been impressive on offense this year. Kentucky is averaging 35 points per game. Mike Hartline has done a nice job at the starting quarterback position, and Randell Cobb and Derrick Locke give the offense two great play makers. Tennessee has improved a lot on the offensive side as the season has gone along. They have put up more than 38 points per game in the last three contests. Neither team has a defense that has proved it can stop many teams for an entire game. I expect a lot of big plays in this game. The over is 9-2 in Kentucky's 11 games this year. The over is 9-2 in Tennessee's 11 games this year. The over is also 6-0 in Tennessee's last 6 games at home. Take the over in this one.

11-26-10 | UCLA Bruins v. Arizona State Sun Devils UNDER 48.5 | 34-55 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 52 m | Show | |
*3 Star Turkey Trimmings Totals Winner* The UCLA Bruins have had a long season, and that is largely due to their one dimensional offense. Johnathan Franklin is a very good running back, but it is tough to find room to run when you virtually never get anything going through the air. UCLA ranks 117th in the nation in pass offense, averaging just 117 yards per game. Arizona State's defense is stout against the run, which should mean the Bruins will struggle to score in this one. The Sun Devils are allowing only 122 yards per game on the ground this year. UCLA's defense is weak against the run, but solid against the pass. Arizona State is pass first type of offense, so once again I see the defense holding up fairly well here. The trends are very strong for this one as well. The under is 21-6-1 in UCLA's last 28 PAC 10 games. The under is 32-15 in Arizona State's last 47 games overall. The under is also 4-0 in their last 4 meetings with each other. Take the under here.

11-26-10 | SMU v. East Carolina OVER 69.5 | 45-38 | Win | 100 | 72 h 7 m | Show | |
*3 Star Friday Totals Feast* The East Carolina defense is as bad as any defense in all of college football. In fact, East Carolina is dead last in Division I in points allowed at 43 per game. Rice put up 62 points on them last week, and Rice had been struggling offensively. Navy put up 76 points on them earlier this year as well. SMU hasa very solid offense and I fully expect them to score a bunch. On the other side, East Carolina has a terrific offense. Dominique Davis leads a high powered passing attack for the Pirates. They average 319 yards per game through the air, and the offense as a whole puts up 38 points per game. The weakness of the SMU defense is their secondary, which should mean ECU will pile up the yards and points in this one as well. This one could be a very high scoring game. I like the over in this one.

11-25-10 | New England Patriots v. Detroit Lions OVER 50.5 | 45-24 | Win | 100 | 43 h 54 m | Show | |
*3 Star Turkey Day Tasty Total* The New England Patriots have their offense firing on all cylinders right now. In the last two games they have played Pittsburgh and Indianapolis and have put up 39 and 31 points respectively. The over is 8-2 in their last 10 games. The Detroit Lions are without Matt Stafford, but they still have some nice pieces on offense. Calvin Johnson is having a big year, and I think he'll give this Patriots secondary some problems. New England is second to last in the league in pass defense, so they are capable of giving up yards through the air. The over is 6-1 in Detroit's last 7 games overall. The over is 6-0 in the Lions last 6 home games. The over is 5-1 in the Patriots last 6 road games. I think there will be several big plays in this game, which should lead to this one going over the posted total.

11-22-10 | Denver Broncos v. San Diego Chargers OVER 50 | 14-35 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 11 m | Show | |
*3 Star Monday Night Football Bookie CRUSHER* The Denver Broncos defense has been absolutely terrible of late. How bad have they been? The Broncos are allowing 37 points per game over their last three game. Champ Bailey is still here, but he isn't what he used to be. Brian Dawkins is aging as well, and he simply hasn't produced very well this year. San Diego has been putting up the points in bunches at home this year. The Chargers are averaging 33 points per game at home so far this season. Phillip Rivers has gone without his main receiving targets much of the year, but he's still had a fabulous season. The Chargers are first in passing offense in the NFL, and Ryan Matthews helps keep them balanced. Denver should be able to put up some points as well, as this Chargers team struggles badly on special teams. The over is 12-2 in Denver's last 14 games. The over is 6-2 in San Diego's last 8 games. The over is 6-2 in the last 8 meetings between these two. Take the over in this MNF matchup!

11-21-10 | NY Giants v. Philadelphia Eagles OVER 48 | Top | 17-27 | Loss | -110 | 73 h 36 m | Show |
*5 Star Sunday Night Top Play GUARANTEED Cash* The Giants and the Eagles have been accustomed to playing high scoring games, and both offenses are humming along right now. Everyone knows about Mike Vick and the Eagles terrific performance from last week, but New York has been putting up points in bunches as well. Over the last five games they have averaged 32.8 points per game. The over is 5-0 in the Giants last five games. The over is also 5-0 in the Eagles last five games. Look for Vick to continue to create for the Eagles offense, and Manning and his wideouts to beat a questionable Eagles secondary. The over is 6-2 in the last 8 meetings between these two teams. This game has over written all over it. I'm making this one a five star top play on the over.
