The nation’s top betting experts from OffshoreInsiders.com bring you news and notes of interest to the bettor.

Iowa-Michigan State

Iowa will have the services of RB Shonn Greene, who suffered a head injury to Northwestern. Greene is averaging a splendid 6.7 yards per rush and 133 yards rushing per game.

Oklahoma-Baylor

Mike Godsey, the top football handicapper ever, and part of the Dream Team of GodsTips on OffshoreInsiders.com, says this is a look ahead game for Oklahoma as they play Texas next. Look for the Sooners to rest injured DL Demarcus Granger and Frank Alexander.

Connecticut-North Carolina

The Huskies are going to be without starting QB Tyler Lorenzen and TE Steve Brouse. Sophomore Zach Frazer gets the start for UConn. In relief of Lorenzen, Frazer went 8-for-15 to Louisville with a TD.

Rutgers-West Virginia

Mountaineers QB Pat White is expected to play despite a bruised thumb. Bob Warner of Lines-Maker.com says “it’s about White’s legs anyway. He could have finished last week,” but was taken out as a precaution in WVU’s 27-3 rout of state rival Marshall.

Washington-Arizona

Washington starting QB Jake Locker is out. In four games, he’s thrown for 512 yards, rushed for 180 and has a TD with his arm and three with his legs. Redshirt freshman Ronnie Fouch takes over. The Huskies will change the complexion of their offense as Fouch is a more traditional passer.

Texas Tech-Kansas State

Kansas State S Gary Chandler is suspended. He was the Big 12 defensive newcomer of the year last year with 54 tackles.

Arizona State-California

California will be without RB Jahvid Best. This is a devastating injury as he ranks third in the country in all-purpose yards at 215.5 per game. For the best sports service picks in college football, check out OffshoreInsiders.com
