Victor Profit Replaces Jonathan Stone

Victor Profit is this year’s sports handicappers brand most hear on the radio, replacing Jonathan Stone, Tommy Hatfield, Mike Wynn, Bobby Ventura and others from previous years.

Pro bettor Cy McCormick of MasterLockLine.com says that Jonathan Stone and Victor Profit are the two most persistent boiler rooms in cold calling. Is Victor Profit a Victor Prophet in handicapping? Laughs McCormick, “Absolutely not.”

As always, professional sports bettors will stick to OffshoreInsiders.com for winning football picks.


Tuesday Betting Rundown

The Minnesota Twins will be looking to punch their ticket to the postseason on Tuesday night by beating the Chicago White Sox. Here’s a look in your Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

You won’t want to shine the spotlight too brightly on Tuesday’s college football matchup, as it’s an underwhelming affair between 1-3 Florida Atlantic and 1-3 Middle Tennessee. The Owls managed to beat UAB a few weeks ago, but they couldn’t get much going against any of Texas, Michigan State, or Minnesota. The Blue Raiders’ lone win came against Maryland, and they’ve been beaten by Troy, Kentucky, and Arkansas State.

When these Sun Belt teams met last season Florida Atlantic came away with a 27-14 home win as 2.5-point favorites. Middle Tennessee had won the previous two meetings between these teams by identical scores of 35-14 (one at home, one on the road), covering the spread twice. The Blue Raiders opened as 1.5-point favorites for Tuesday.

Who to bet on to beat the Vegas odds on FAU and MTSU? The power of 620 sports services behind every selection is on a 43-23 run in football betting.

The White Sox managed to beat the Tigers in their makeup game on Monday, so now they’ll battle the Twins in a one-game playoff for first place in the AL Central and MLB’s final postseason berth on Tuesday. The winner of this game will move on to face the Tampa Bay Rays in the ALDS, with that series getting underway Thursday afternoon.

The Twins will send Nick Blackburn (11-10, 4.15 ERA) to the mound on Tuesday, and the White Sox will counter with John Danks (11-9, 3.47 ERA). Righthander Blackburn beat the White Sox in his last outing, surrendering just two earned runs on eight hits over five innings. Lefthander Danks wasn’t as sharp in his last start, as he was knocked around for seven earned runs on seven hits over four innings of work by the Indians.

Survivor Gabon on CBS

One of the best sportsbooks for exotic odds Sportsbook.com has posted Ace Gordon as the Survivor Gabon favorite at +300. Crystal Cox and Matty Whitmore are next at +500. Dan Kay and Marcus Lehman are just a notch behind at +550.

The same bookmaker has the betting odds posted for the Amazing Race on CBS. Nick/Starr is the prohibitive favorite at +200. Andrew and Dan as well as Ken/Tina and Terenace/Sarah are +440. Personally we like Heidi Strobel.

In the past, the oddsmakers have foreseen the success of Mike Boschetti from “Last Comic Standing” and the winners of American Idol.

The Rest of the Schedule

It’s another slow day for sports on Tuesday, so your only other options are preseason hockey or whatever football games you have saved on your TiVo from the weekend.

News from the Wire

Red Sox pitcher Josh Beckett has a strained oblique, and his next start won’t come any earlier than Game 3 of the ALDS against the Angels . . . Angels pitcher Joe Saunders seemed to be recovered from his kidney stone on Sunday - he tossed six scoreless innings in a win versus the Rangers . . . the Ducks have finally brought veteran winger Teemu Selanne back into the fold, signing him to a two-year contract over the weekend…Alonzo Mourning has written a book “Resilience” that is sure to make waves….perhaps not as much as LA Times blogger the photogenic Lisa Guerrero, who calls New England Patriots fans fair weather. Philadelphia writer Phil Sheridan angers Phillies fans for a bizarre column today claiming the same thing about his hometown baseball squad.

Political Ticker

Barack Obama maintains his lead according to the political betting odds. Bruce Elliott, an opportunist apparently is big into painting nude portraits, the latest of VPILP Sarah Palin. It can be obscene and not heard at Chicago dive bar the Old Town Ale House. He apparently is also a collector of nude photos of Janet Jackson and Britney Spears. Do we really want to see Britney Spears nude?    

A Peek at the Future

The opening game of three baseball divisional playoff series are on the schedule for Wednesday, with Milwaukee at Philadelphia, the Dodgers at the Cubs, and Boston at the Angels. The league championship series are slated to get underway on October 9 and 10, while the first game of the World Series will be October 22 . . . the WNBA Finals get underway on Wednesday night in San Antonio and continue through the weekend.

Steelers-Ravens, What Bettors Need to Know to Beat the Sportsbooks


It’s time for the official betting preview of the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday Night Football. The sportsbooks have Pittsburgh as the five-point favorite with a total of 34-34.5. Based on yards allowed per game, these are statistically the league’s top two defenses.

Because of Hurricane Ike, the Ravens had an unscheduled bye week and have played just two games, winning and covering both. This is their first road game and their toughest foe.

The Steelers are 2-1 straight up and 1-2 versus the number. This is their only home game in a five game stretch in which four-of-five are on the highway. The won and covered their only home game so far crushing Houston 38-17. Their last two games have produced a total of 16 and 21 points combined.

The Steelers defense has carried them. According to Bob Warner of Lines-Maker.com, they are allowing just 2.8 yards per rush against teams normally allowing 3.8, 4.9 yards per pass to 5.8 and 4.1 yards per play to 5.0.

There are several key injuries for tonight’s game. The Steelers will be without their leading rusher Willie Parker, meaning rookie first-rounder Rashard Mendenhall gets his first career start. In the past four series meetings, no Pittsburgh running back has exceeded 42 yards rushing.

Two key players will start but could be less than 100 percent: Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger and Ravens RB Willis McGahee.

Out for Baltimore is key defender Samari Rolle. They will start Corey Ivy or Frank Walker, two players who looked horrible in the preseason according to Brian Gould of ScoresOddsPicks.com.

The Steelers rush defense has also been great in the
series, allowing just 81.8 yards rushing per game and 3.4 yards per carry in
the last five meetings at Heinz Field. The Steelers are a stunningly
spectacular 13-0 straight up on MNF since 1992. Baltimore
meanwhile is trying to snap a six-game primetime losing streak.

If you are betting on this game, the biggest side and total are detailed on the home page of OffshoreInsiders.com 


Monday Betting Rundown


The Ravens will be looking to run their record to 3-0 on the season on Monday night when they go to Pittsburgh to play the rival Steelers. Here’s your Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

Baltimore is 2-0 on the year, thanks to games against struggling division rivals Cincinnati and Cleveland and an unexpected, hurricane-imposed bye in Week 2. The Ravens began the year by beating the Bengals 17-10 at home, and followed up that result by topping the Browns 28-10 at home last week. Baltimore managed to pick up an ATS win in both of those contests, while the OVER/UNDER is at 1-1 for them this year.

Pittsburgh was tagged with their first loss of the year last weekend, falling 15-6 in Philadelphia as 3.5-point underdogs. The Steelers began the campaign by thumping the Texans 38-17, and they then squeaked past the Browns 10-6 in Week 2. That puts Pittsburgh at 2-1 straight-up and 1-2 against-the-spread on the season, and only their easy victory over Houston in Week 1 has provided an OVER result for their supporters.

promo/euro

The Ravens and Steelers split their season series 1-1 last year, with each team winning and covering at home (in a pair of OVER results). For Monday night the oddsmakers have Pittsburgh listed as a 5-point home favorite, with the total pegged at just 34 points. Steelers RB Willie Parker will miss Monday’s game with a knee injury, leaving Rashard Mendenhall as their starter. Ravens DB Samari Rolle (shoulder/neck) is OUT as well.

Other Notable Events

There’s a single baseball game on the schedule for Monday, with Gavin Floyd (16-8, 3.91 ERA) and the White Sox hosting Freddy Garcia (1-1, 4.50 ERA) and the Tigers in a makeup contest. If Chicago manages to beat Detroit in the Monday matinee they’ll then play a one-game playoff against the Twins on Tuesday to decide the AL Central title.

As well, the New York Liberty and the Detroit Shock will play the third and deciding game of the WNBA’s Eastern Conference Finals on Monday night (at Eastern Michigan University). The Shock rallied to avoid elimination on Sunday afternoon, with Deanna Nolan pouring in a team-high 22 points in their 64-55 win over the Liberty in Game 2.

Divisional Championship Odds

The live game odds at press time have not been posted for the respective Game 1 matchups, nor have the series odds, though both will be up very shortly and likely by the time you read this. Of course the Tigers-White Sox contest will help determine the matchups. Check the link shortly for the Vegas odds on the Brewers-Phillies, Dodgers-Cubs and Red Sox-Angels.

Best Betting Event

GodsTips does have the Tigers-White Sox winner, but the big story is Monday Night Football and the amazing winnings of Stevie Vincent. This is a typical year for The Great One. Kansas City wins as a PERFECT PLAY. All they do is cover by 22.5. That game over, plus another Level 5 on Houston and San Diego. Stevie Vincent is 26-9 in football, collegiate and pro. Stevie casts the ultimate bailout vote.

Tonight, it’s the 2008 Monday Night GAME of the YEAR Ravens/Steelers. Click now to purchase and let the bookmaker subsidize what you lost with Wachovia Securities, Evergreen, AG Edwards or your Citigroup stock.

The Rest of the Schedule

There’s nothing else on the schedule on a light Monday around the world of sports, unless you’re into preseason hockey (the NHL regular season gets started Saturday).

News from the Wire

Each of Rolle, DT Kelly Gregg (knee), S Dawan Landry (neck), and QB Troy Smith (illness) are OUT for Baltimore. WR Yamon Figurs (hamstring), LB Nick Greisen (thigh), and T Adam Terry (ankle) are QUESTIONABLE, while LB Tavares Gooden (hip), LB Ray Lewis (foot), RB Le’Ron McClain (migraine/ankle), RB Willis McGahee (eye), CB Fabian Washington (neck), and TE Daniel Wilcox (shoulder/ankle) are PROBABLE . . . Parker, DT Casey Hampton (groin), and DE Brett Keisel (calf) are OUT for Pittsburgh, while LB Donovan Woods (hamstring) is DOUBTFUL, and CB William Gay (ankle), S Troy Polamalu (quadricep), and CB Deshea Townsend (heel) are all PROBABLE.

All reports are that Jim Haslett is in and Scott Linehan out with the Rams.

A Peek at the Future

The MLB playoffs and the WNBA Finals both get rolling this week, while the drivers of the Sprint Cup Series will head to Talladega for Sunday’s Amp Energy 500 . . . those first NHL regular season games will take place in Europe over the weekend, with the Rangers and Lightning in Prague, and the Penguins and Senators in Stockholm . . . college football gets started again Tuesday, with Florida Atlantic at Middle Tennessee.

Dancing With the Stars Vegas Betting Line

Perhaps somebody in the household would rather watch Warren Sapp on Dancing With the Stars than Monday Night Football. Eat that Roshashana meal and win betting both events.

The betting odds say there is not clear-cut favorite. Lance Bass, Toni Braxton, Brooke Burke, Maurice Green, Cody Linley, Susan Lucci, Misty May-Treanor and Warren Sapp all have odds of between +400-500.

Betting Report Bears-Eagles

The Chicago Bears host the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday Night Football. The bookmaker has Philadelphia has a three-point favorite with a total of 39 or 39.5.

The injury situation is very key for bettors and while the official NFL report comes out Friday, the fantasy football player and pointspread player knows that OffshoreInsiders.com has the truly “official” injury report if winning is your top concern.  

Of course it’s also where NCAA football bettors get their injury report. Here is the latest: Eagles QB Donovan McNabb will play, but star running back Brian Westbrook is considered questionable to doubtful.

The Bears DT Tommie Harris will be a game time decision. He is less likely to play than return man Devin Hester and WR Brandon Lloyd, both also considered game time decisions.

The Eagles are 2-1 straight up and 3-0 to the number. Chicago is 1-2 straight up and 1-1-1 versus the Vegas NFL line. Each team has gone under the total two of their three games.

Chicago defense is allowing just 69 yards rushing per game on 21 carries and they are holding foes a full yard below their normal yards per carry average.

Even with Brian Westbrook, the Eagles are getting just 3.2 yards per rush against teams normally allowing 4.2, but 7.6 yards per pass against teams normally allowing 6.7. Defensively, they allow a mere 2.4 yards per carry to teams normally getting 4.1.

Chicago has two losses of three-points, one in overtime, after upsetting the Indianapolis Colts in week 1.

Chargers-Raiders

Darren McFadden, the Raiders rookie sensation RB is questionable with a toe injury, but Cy McCormick of the online betting syndicate MasterLockLine.com says he will start. He will not get his full workload though. This is key because fellow RB Justin Fargas is out. Michael Bush is the only other tailback.

Oakland is going to be short-handed on defense as starters Nnamdi Asomugha, Derrick Burgess, and Gerald Warren are all banged up. The Bolts LaDainian Tomlinson is close to 100 percent, but remember he is off a short week because of playing Monday night to the Jets.

Eagles-Bears

There are a ton of injuries for tonight. Eagles QB Donovan McNabb will play, but star running back Brian Westbrook is considered questionable to doubtful.

The Bears DT Tommie Harris will be a game time decision. He is less likely to play than return man Devin Hester and WR Brandon Lloyd, both also considered game time decisions.

RBs Maurice Jones-Drew and Fred Taylor are probable and WR Jerry Porter will make his much anticipated debut. Washed up RB Ahman Green may be available but rookie Steve Slaton gets the start for the Texans.

Bills-Rams

The Rams will have to avoid sundry distractions and head coach Scott Linehan attempting to save his job, benched QB Marc Bulger and will start aged Trent Green. Star RB Steven Jackson expressed discontent at the move. Jackson, by the way, should be at full-speed for the first time all year.

Packers-Buccaneers

Vikings-Titans

Betting Information For Saturday College Football Odds

Here are some football betting news and notes from the world-champion sports handicappers at OffshoreInsiders.

Maryland-Clemson

According to Mike Godsey of GodsTips, anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com, the top football handicapper of all time, the big mismatch is Maryland’s experiences defensive line going against Clemson’s patchwork offensive line.

Kent State-Ball State

The Cardinals are 0-4 but this is their first game without star WR Dante Love, whose career is likely over.

TCU-Oklahoma

The Sooners have a 20-game home winning streak, but TCU stunned Oklahoma in their last trip to Norman. They are also 11-2 their last 12 to BCS conference teams. In fact, the Mountain West is 7-3 straight up to the BCS conferences this season.

Oklahoma is the highest scoring team in the country at 54.6 points per game.

Wisconsin-Michigan

Michigan is a big home underdog even though the last time they lost their Big 10 opener in Ann Arbor was 1966. Is it a trap game for the Badgers? They have home games the next two weeks against Ohio State and Penn State.

Arkansas-Texas

Texas won their first three games by a combined 146-33 with Colton McCoy tossing 11 touchdowns. Arkansas is 2-1 but struggled in both of their wins to Western Illinois and Louisiana Monroe.

Penn State-Ohio State

Penn State has averaged 52.8 points per game in their 4-0 straight up start but gets their biggest test in the conference opener for both teams. The Illini won last year against the Nittany Lions and are off a bye week.

The Gridiron Spotlight

Connecticut has done nothing but win so far this season, rolling past Hofstra, Temple, Virginia, and Baylor to a 4-0 record. That doesn’t mean the Huskies have been profitable, however, as they’re just 1-2 ATS in games that have received lines. Louisville lost their opener 27-2 to Kentucky, then knocked off Tennessee Tech and Kansas State to get to 2-1 on the season. The Cardinals are 1-1 against-the-spread in those games.

The Huskies have the 4-0 record, but the oddsmakers are going with Louisville at home in this game. The Cardinals are listed as 3.5-point favorites, with the total at 50 points. 

Other Notable Events

The Brewers will be looking to get a win out of Jeff Suppan (10-10, 5.06 ERA) when they host the Cubs and Ryan Dempster (17-6, 2.99 ERA) on Friday night.

September 25, 2008

Connecticut-Louisville College Football Line

We have the official betting preview of Connecticut and Louisville. The sportsbooks have Louisville a 3.5 point favorite with a total of 51.5. Connecticut is 4-0 straight up, but just 1-2 against the spread going over 2-of-3. The Cardinals are 2-1 straight up and 1-1 to the Vegas betting odds.

The Huskies have been very successful on offense getting 5.8 yards per rush against teams normally allowing 4.7. Their defensive numbers are average, allowing 4.5 yards per play to teams normally getting 4.6.

That describes the Louisville offense: average. They get 5.4 yards per play to teams allowing that same amount. This is not your Petrino’s Cardinals. Their strength is on defense, allowing 1.9 yards per rush to teams normally getting 3.8 and 5.7 yards per pass to teams normally getting 6.1. That comes out to giving up 4.2 yards per play against teams normally allowing 5.1.

For those who bet college football quarter lines, note that Louisville fades late. They’ve allowed 27 points combined in the first three quarters, but 39 in the final quarter.

Keep in mind that this is only the Huskies second road game of the year, while Louisville has yet to play a road contest making this their fourth straight home game.

Brian Gould of ScoresOddsPicks.com says the key for Louisville is to be more careful with the ball. Their signal caller Tyler Lorenzen has already thrown six interceptions.

Who should one bet? The founder of the revolutionary science of forensic sports handicapping Stevie Vincent is absolutely unloading on this game. It’s his Friday Night Big East Game of Two Centuries.

As far as Vegas betting trends are concerned, all records are against the spread: Louisville is 9-1 at home to opponents who average more than 200 rushing yards per game. They are 18-6 on the road after two straight nonconference games. The Cardinals are 20-8 after getting more than 200 yards rushing last game.

UConn is 8-2 on grass.


SMU-Tulane Betting Outlook


The SMU Mustangs take on the Tulane Green Wave. We have already given you the official college football handicapping preview of USC and Oregon State, now it’s the Southern Methodist and Tulane preview.

The sportsbooks have Tulane as an 18 to 18.5 point favorite with the total a solid 49 across the board.

SMU enters 1-3 straight up and 0-2 versus the Vegas spread. Tulane is 1-2 straight up, but has covered all three games.

The Mustangs are playing their third road game in a six game stretch in which four are away from home. Conversely, Tulane is in the third of a four-game home stand.

The top football handicapper in the world, Mike Godsey of GodsTips, anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com says that Tulane FB Kasey Stelly is one of the more underrated players in the country to the football betting experts. He is a tremendous blocker and his insertion into the starting lineup last week was big for the ball control aspect according to Godsey and his enormous contacts.

This could prove fatal for a Mustangs’ defense which is ranked 116th nationally. Since SMU joined C-USA, the road team has won outright all three times.

However, as Grandmaster sports handicapper Joe Duffy preaches time in and time out, rankings can be a bit deceptive for the sports bettor. SMU’s defense is bad, but the raw numbers are indicative of pace, not competence. They allow 5.4 yards per rush to teams normally getting 4.8, 8.1 yards per pass to 7.4 and 6.7 yards per play to 6.1.

Tulane’s defense has been wonderful, allowing 2.6 yards per rush to teams normally getting 4.5 and 4.3 yards per play to 5.5. Duffy says a +1.2 ratio is excellent, though it’s early in the year and stats can only be so accurate.

Who should you bet on in this contest? The top sports handicapper off all time has the side and total. Here is the message from GodsTips: We added two Wise Guy MLB underdogs and four MLB Major plays added. You are right. Humiliating the bookmaker in college football betting and the NFL is not enough.

GodsTips goes 5-0 last night including the Braves +240 as a Wise Guy and the Cards on the runline -1.5 +170. In the midst of easily the greatest football season of any handicapper—again—we have the side and total for Southern Methodist-Tulane. Click now to purchase GodsTips five-day pass for just $67!

Spread betting information with all records against the spread: Tulane is 6-1 in the series. SMU is 21-40 to the Vegas number after scoring three points or less in the first half of their last game. They are also a rotten 17-35 in September.

The Vegas sportsbooks say the Green Wave are 6-17 in the conference.


Thursday Betting Roundup

The No. 1 USC Trojans will be looking to hold on to that lofty ranking on Thursday night when they go to Oregon State to battle the Beavers. Here’s your Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The Trojans are coming off a convincing 35-3 win over Ohio State which solidified their No. 1 ranking. USC quarterback Mark Sanchez went 17-of-28 for 172 yards passing in that contest, with four TD strikes and one interception. Oregon State is coming off a 45-7 win over Hawaii, but that was their first victory in three attempts this season. Lyle Moevao threw for 268 yards and three scores for the Beavers against the Warriors.

The oddsmakers don’t expect the Trojans/Beavers matchup to be close; USC has been pegged as a 25.5-point favorite. The other game on the college football docket for Thursday is expected to be a bit tighter, as Tulane is favored by 18 points versus SMU.

Vegas Betting Odds Oregon State Hosts USC

promo/euro

Top ranked USC travels to Oregon State as the Trojans invade the Beavers. Sportsbooks have the Trojans as a 25-point road favorite and a total of 51.5-52.

USC is 2-0 straight up and against the spread. Oregon State is 1-2 straight up and against the spread but the home team has won and covered all three of their games this year.

Oregon State is averaging 3.6 yards per rush, 7.0 passing yards per attempt and 5.5 yards per play. Defensively they allow just 5.8 yards per pass and 5.2 yards per play.

Of course those numbers don’t compare to Southern Cal, which gets 7.8 yards per pass on 6.5 yards per play. They allow a miniscule 1.9 yards per rush, 4.5 passing yards per attempt and 3.3 yards per play.

“One of the first things a handicapper must evaluate when there is such a large pointspread, is the motivational factors of each team,” says Mike Godsey, the world’s top football handicapper and part of the Dream Team at GodsTips, the anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com   

Certainly the Trojans can find motivation in what happened in their last trip to Corvallis. OSU snapped USC’s 38-game winning streak. In fact, Oregon State has won 2-of-3 outright at home in the series, though USC has a 58-9-1 all-time head-to-head advantage.

Godsey, who watches a great deal of game film says that Oregon State is showing some upside on offense. QB Lyle Moevao leads the Beavers to the No. 1 spot in the Pac-10 in passing offense at 307.3 yards per game.

USC will be without CB Shareece Wright with a hairline vertebra fracture.  Also All-American LB Brian Cushing is suffering from sundry injuries, the latest a hamstring strain suffered Tuesday. He is questionable.

The power of 620 sports services behind every selection has a humungous play on this game. Mark the Shark, the top handicapper west of the Mississippi hits 60-65 % of his Game/Total of the Month or higher plays.  He is without question the top Pac 10 and Mountain West tipster in America.

He’s been offered nearly seven figures per year to join a famed Las Vegas sports handicapping marketing giant, but has spurned offers because they demanded marketing concessions that would negatively affect his modules. He’s hit 17-of-21 Pac-10 Games of the Week in college basketball and football combined. Pac-10 Game of the Week goes on USC-Oregon State. Click now to purchase sports betting picks from the top sports services or you can get more information and a free sports pick.

Here are some betting trends, all against the spread: Oregon State is 0-6 off home win of 17 or more points. However, they are also 12-3 at home off a home win. The Beavers don’t like to see you in September as they are only 2-11 in the ninth month.

USC is 7-1 following a bye week and 32-15 after allowing less than 100 rushing yards last game.

Sunday Betting Rundown

promo/euro

The National Football League rolls out its third week of action on Sunday, with marquee games in Philadelphia and Green Bay. Here’s a look in today’s Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The Eagles lost a tough game against the Cowboys in Week 2, so they’ll try to bounce back this week by knocking their state rivals from Pittsburgh for a loss. The Eagles and Steelers will clash at 4:15pm ET at Lincoln Financial Field, with Philly pegged as a 3.5-point home favorite (and the total at 45). Despite their loss last week the Eagles are still 2-0 ATS on the season, while unbeaten Pittsburgh is just 1-1 ATS over two contests.

The Cowboys aim to follow up their win over Philadelphia with another victory against a big-time NFC team - the Packers. Aaron Rodgers and company will play host to Tony Romo and the ‘Boys starting at 8:15pm ET at Lambeau Field on Sunday night, with Dallas listed as a 3-point road favorite. Both the Cowboys and Packers are 2-0 to start the season, with Green Bay covering twice, and Dallas only covering in one victory.

The Handicapper’s Report Card

No handicapper dominates any sport the way Joe Duffy’s GodsTips does the NFL. But they are far from the only elite sports handicapping service that will win big time again on Sunday. Check out where the NFL expert picks are for week 3 betting against the spread.

Other Notable Events

The NFL’s byes don’t start until next week, so that means every team is in action once again in Week 3. The Patriots will look to stay on a roll behind Matt Cassel when they host the lowly Dolphins in a 1:00pm ET contest; they’re 12.5-point home favorites. As well, the Colts will be looking to keep the rival Jaguars winless when they host them at Lucas Oil Stadium at 4:15pm ET; Indy has been listed as a 5.5-point home favorite.

Making up the rest of the NFL’s Sunday schedule: Oakland at Buffalo (-9.5), Tampa Bay at Chicago (-3), Houston at Tennessee (-4.5), Carolina at Minnesota (-3), Cincinnati at the Giants (-13), Arizona at Washington (-3), Detroit at San Francisco (-4), St. Louis at Seattle (-9.5), New Orleans at Denver (-5.5), and Cleveland at Baltimore (-2). As well, the least interesting game of the entire day has Kansas City taking on Atlanta (-6).

Meanwhile, the Sprint Cup Series will stage their second playoff event on Sunday, the Camping World RV 400 presented by AAA at Dover International Speedway. Jimmie Johnson and Carl Edwards sit tied atop the standings heading into this race, and they’re at 5/1 and 9/2 odds to visit victory lane. Kyle Busch, who fell to eighth in the standings with a poor result last weekend, is also pegged at 9/2 odds to take the checkered flag.

The Rest of the Schedule

Yankee Stadium closes on Sunday night with a matchup between Baltimore’s Chris Waters (3-3, 4.75 ERA) and New York’s Andy Pettitte (13-14, 4.57 ERA). The rest of the American League’s slate: Detroit at Cleveland, Boston at Toronto, Minnesota at Tampa Bay, the White Sox at Kansas City, the Angels at Texas, and Seattle at Oakland.

The race for the final NL playoff spots continues on Sunday, with Milwaukee at Cincinnati, Philadelphia at Florida, and the Mets at Atlanta. Rounding out the National League schedule: Houston at Pittsburgh, San Diego at Washington, St. Louis at the Cubs, Arizona at Colorado, and San Francisco at the Dodgers.

DÉJÀ VU; 9-1 LAST SUNDAY NFL; 10 WINNERS THIS WEEK INCLUDES WISE GUY; 7-1 WG NFL REGULAR SEASON

It is déjà vu? The football betting specialists at GodsTips went 9-1 last Sunday in the NFL and are 7-1 this season with Wise Guy NFL plays. Get the card for $17. You get all of Click now to purchase

NFL

Seattle-St. Louis UNDER 44

St. Louis has averaged less than 14 points per game in their last six. Seattle would have had a good offense, but the unit they are putting on the field is horrible. I could start at wideout for Seattle.

They already lost six receivers due to injury, including Nate Burleson, Ben Obomanu and Logan Payne for the season. Veterans Deion Branch and Bobby Engram have yet to play, and are not expected to return until after the bye week later this month. Backup quarterback Seneca Wallace - pressed into service as a receiver - will miss the next month after injuring his calf last week during pre-game warmups.

Of all units in the NFL, the one that is clearly better than their stats is Seattle’s defense, which features 11 returning starters and four Pro Bowlers. Of course, yes our Golden Rule applies how amazing it is when allegedly great defenses turn out to not be so good when they are on the field.

However, the Rams don’t have the talent to exploit that and in fact with Steven Jackson now rid of the rust, we look for the Rams to go full ball control.

Week 3 NFL Injuries

promo/euro

Fantasy football players and football bettors alike don’t make a move until they read this NFL injury report from the staff of OffshoreInsiders.com

Early games

Panthers-Vikings

Adrian Peterson, the superstar running back of the Vikings is considered a game time decision with a hamstring injury. Bob Warner of Lines-Maker.com says his staff will monitor ESPN television and radio, the Panthers and Vikings pre-game shows and sundry other sources and update anything new as it comes in on said site.

Ancient QB Gus Frerotte takes over for incompetent Tarvaris Jackson for the Vikings. Vikings WR Sidney Rice is questionable.

Buccaneers-Bears

Chicago’s return man extraordinaire Devin Hester is probable but may not be 100 percent. Everyone knows that GodsTips is the top football betting picks service in America. They have 10 winners for Sunday including a Wise Guy.

It is déjà vu? The football betting specialists at GodsTips went 9-1 last Sunday in the NFL and are 7-1 this season with Wise Guy NFL plays. Get the card for $17. Click now to purchase

Texans-Titans

With always injured Ahman Green out for Houston, the Texans will start rookie Steve Slaton at RB. Remember, Hurricane Ike postponed the Texans game last week, but in their only game so far Slaton got 43 yards on 13 carries and also caught three passes.

The rookie goes up against a defense allowing just 60.5 rushing yards per game. Tennessee WR Justin Gage is a game time decision and is considered doubtful.

Raiders-Bills

Rookie RB Darren McFadden is expected to play with a toe injury. With Justin Fargas out, he will be counted in more than in the first two games.

Late games

Browns-Ravens

Browns WR Braylon Edwards is questionable. Edwards already has five drops in two games. Also for Cleveland, OG Eric Steinbach and LB Willie McGinest are doubtful. WR Donte Stallworth, who has yet to make his Browns debut because of a quadriceps injury, is questionable.

Steelers-Eagles

Two-time Pro Bowl G Shawn Andrews is doubtful for the Eagles. WR Reggie Brown is probable after missing the first two games. However, he may not start.

Ben Roethlisberger, the Steelers QB, starts despite various shoulder issues. Brian Gould of ScoresOddsPicks.com says that injury is ever the more reason to expect the conservative approach of the Bill Cowher days are back and here to stay.

Jaguars-Colts

Jacksonville WR Jerry Porter is doubtful. Acquired in the offseason to be their big play option, Porter has yet to play for Jacksonville. They will also be minus LB Justin Durant, WR Troy Williamson, C Brad Meester, and G Chris Naeole.

However RBs Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew, as well as S Brian Williams will play. Indianapolis is without CB Bob Sanders, considered by many to be their most valuable player on defense.

Night

Cowboys-Packers

The Packers will enter pretty healthy as RB Ryan Grant and CB Charles Woodson are probable. Only S Atari Bigby is likely to miss this game for the Pack.

Stevie Vincent his 80 percent of his NFL picks again last week. The Sunday Night O/U of the Year highlights three NFL plays today.  Less is more as forensic sports handicapping continues to put you 25 years ahead of the oddsmakers. Click now to purchase the entire day’s card for $40.

Baylor-Connecticut Info For Bettors

The Connecticut Huskies host the Baylor Bears and OffshoreInsiders.com has the official preview for sports betting and college football spread picks. Sportsbooks have UConn as a 12-point favorite and a total of 51.

Each team is 1-1 against the spread with both playing a non-lined game. This is Baylor’s first road game, but no look-ahead as they have a bye next week. After getting smashed by Wake Forest in week 1, they disposed of Northwestern State and Washington State by combined 96-23.

Connecticut is 3-0 including a win at rebuilt Temple and by 35 to Virginia. They are averaging 40 points in two home games, while allowing 7.3.

The Huskies are led by eight returning starters on defense from last year’s Big East title. Baylor has been buoyed by Robert Griffin entering the line-up at QB, but it’s an understatement to say this is his biggest test in his young career so far. He rushed for 217 yards and threw for 129 to Washington State.

Connecticut is also led by a Young Turk in Donald Brown II. He rushed for 206 yards and caught five passes against Virginia. He has rushed for more than 800 yards in his first two seasons, but Bob Warner of Lines-Maker.com has close contact with several NFL draft gurus who tell him this appears to be Brown’s breakout year.

Baylor winning on the moneyline at BetUs Sportsbook would be a huge upset. Connecticut has won nine straight home games, while Baylor has one road win the last two years. The UConn Huskies margin of victory in the nine games is 20.8 points per game.

Brian Gould of ScoresOddsPicks.com says that Baylor QB Griffin is similar to South Florida’s Matt Grothe and West Virginia’s Pat White, so the Huskies experienced defense is not entering uncharted waters.

Who should bettors go with? There is a big MasterLockLine Exclusive and bettors can get the top sports handicapper’s side and the top sports service total on tonight’s game for just one $16 charge. The Dutchman is a former professional tout who in 1996 retired to a Hawaiian getaway.

He’s 7-1 in 2008 and his first of this college football season goes tonight Baylor-Connecticut side.

Here are some spread records, all against the spread. Baylor is 5-0 off straight up win of 20 or more points and 9-2 after allowing less than 20 points last game. On the other hand, they are 9-24 off spread wins and 3-14 against teams with a winning record.

The Huskies are 28-12 outside the Big East, but 2-9 after getting more than 200 yards rushing last game. They have dropped four straight against teams with a winning record.

The Bears have exceeded the total in 8-of-10 road games while the Huskies have gone under the sportsbook total 7-1 off a win of 20 or more.

Colorado-West Virginia


promo/euro


It’s a huge night for bettors again as West Virginia travels to Colorado to take on the Buffalos. The Mountaineers are a three-point favorite according to the college football odds.

We have several sports services hotter than the Naomi Broady, Natosha Shaw, Lisa Altobelli or Tamara Hoover pictures. Here is the objective rundown of who is hot and who has the big plays, the famed Handicapper’s Sampler.

Let’s start out with a guy who wins you back everything you lost with Putman Investments. As you know, Stevie has quite often passed on prime time cards. He keeps telling you less is more, which is why the Great One has released just nine bets since last Friday. He’s hit eight for a cool 88.8 percent.

The founder of the revolutionary forensic sports handicapping nails a rare Level 5 play (his highest rated) on West Virginia/Colorado. Click now to purchase. Get the four-day pass as Stevie says the week 3 NFL picks are even better than the first two weeks and the preseason.

Has Brad Childress finally benching Tarvaris Jackson and starting Gus Frerotte affected the NFL Vegas spread? Check out NFL betting odds.  Also get UEFA Cup odds from any of the approved sportsbooks.

The Duke, Jonathan Mardukas built up a large scorephone following over the last dozen or so years.  He now has an elite group of high rolling clients and the Duke is the most expensive sports service in the world.  With a database that goes back to 1980, he is the top ranked college and pro football handicapper EVER. Stats are out of more than 900 current and former services and syndicates monitored, rankings based on total net units won based on ONE unit per play.  He’s 5-0 all-time with Billion Star CFB parlays (10-0 with individual plays) including Louisville and over last night. Now it’s his first 1.25 Billion Star Parlay on West Virginia/Colorado

Jared Lindsey a handicapper out of Sarasota, FL is among the Top 5 handicappers all sports combined since 1995-present. Widely accepted as the top late season MLB handicapper, he is No. 1 since August 1 in MLB. You got Arizona last night. Lindsey has two more tonight

Of course there is the Industry Standard, GodsTips. All we do is win and we have yet another winner up tonight on West Virginia-Colorado. A Wise Guy on Louisville means we are 26-13 with football Wise Guy plays this year after dominating like a banshee last season. Click now to purchase


Betting Expert Previews West Virginia-Colorado

It’s time for the official bettor’s preview of tonight’s West Virginia and Colorado battle. Sportsbooks have West Virginia a three-point favorite with a total of 56.5.

The road favorite West Virginia can certainly be beaten. East Carolina held Heisman candidate QB Pat White to 72 yards passing and 97 rushing.

While Colorado is 2-0 straight up, they needed a late pick six to defeat Eastern Washington 31-24. West Virginia is allowing 392.5 yards per game. However, they will get back a key player tonight, MLB Reed Williams. How good is he? He was last year’s leading tackler and MVP in the Fiesta Bowl win over Oklahoma.

WR Wes Lyons will also likely play for the Mountaineers. West Virginia will face their toughest test defensively against the pass says ScoresOddsPicks.com’s Brian Gould.

Who has the big plays for football betting? GodsTips, the anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com, yet again starts out the week with a winner. Louisville was a Wise
