Expert Picks Louisville-UConn

Connecticut
is at Louisville in college
football betting. The sportsbooks NCAA
odds say that Louisville is -3.5
with a total of 52. Who are the pro bettors investing on?

The banks and lending institutions need bailouts and so do
the sportsbooks. The former’s problems are from taking loans from people with
bad credit, the latter from taking bets from gamblers with spectacular information
from the world’s top sports
handicappers
.

For those who invest without professional advice, there is
no better cheat sheet on the Huskies-Cardinals than the official sports betting
preview of Connecticut-Louisville
is the best pregame info worth betting.

picks, let’s start with the MasterLockLine.

Weekend Betting Versus Vegas Odds


We keep hearing about Bailout Bill, offshore drilling, Bank of America and WaMu. Forensic sports
handicapping
founder Stevie Vincent has been bailing out bettors for years
and GodsTips, anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com
has been drilling the offshore and Vegas sportsbooks
since the scorephone Cadillac Club days.

The Presidential Debates are on and there are some interesting
wagers
for both the Barack Obama-John McCain and Joe Biden
Sarah Palin debates. One can bet on when and/or how
many times there are mentions of Washington Mutual, Iran,
or even David Letterman and his Top 10 list. More political betting
odds
are updates on as they come in.

Survivor Gabon
betting odds and the Vegas line should be up shortly.  

Baseball’s pennant races and a Big East matchup on the gridiron highlight
the Friday night schedule, with some WNBA playoffs as
well. Here’s your Daily Sports Roundup.

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. The Mets, Milwaukee’s NL Wild Card rival, is
expected to go with Mike Pelfrey (13-10, 3.70 ERA) in their home game against
the Marlins and Chris Volstad (5-4, 3.10 ERA) on
Friday.

Francisco Liriano (6-3, 3.39 ERA) will start for the Twins on Friday as they
try to keep pace in the race for top spot in the AL Central; his opponent will
be the Royals and Kyle Davies (8-7, 4.21 ERA). The White Sox are set to go with
John Danks (11-8, 3.20 ERA) in their Friday night
matchup against the Indians and Scott Lewis (3-0, 1.42 ERA).

As well, golf’s THE TOUR Championship will continue at East
Lake
in Atlanta
on Friday.

The Rest of the Schedule

The Red Sox will host the Yankees at Fenway Park
on Friday, while Tampa Bay
will be in Detroit, and the Angels
will get a visit from Texas. The
rest of the American League schedule: Toronto
at Baltimore, and Oakland
at Seattle.

Philadelphia is hoping the Mets
continue to hit the skids this weekend as they try to lock down the NL East
title; the Phillies host Washington
on Friday. Making up the rest of the National League
schedule:
Atlanta at Houston, Cincinnati at St. Louis, Colorado at Arizona, Pittsburgh at San Diego, and the playoff-bound Dodgers at San Francisco.

In the WNBA the Eastern Conference Finals get
underway on Friday night, with Detroit
at New York. The Liberty
opened as 1.5-point favorites to win Game 1, but the Shock opened as -250
favorites to win the three-game series (which continues on Sunday).

And finally, there’s one game on the Canadian Football League’s schedule for
Friday, as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers get a visit from the Edmonton Eskimos. The
oddsmakers have the Bombers as 1.5-point favorites, with the total at 54
points.

News from the Wire

The Brewers would like to use Ben Sheets to start a game at some point over
the weekend, but his sore elbow makes him questionable . . . Key Eagles
offensive players Donovan McNabb (chest) and Brian Westbrook (ankle) may both
come down to game-time decisions this weekend . . . Steelers running back
Willie Parker (knee) is now expected to miss two games . . . Derek Anderson
will remain the Browns’ starting QB.

A Peek at the Future

Early games on Saturday involving ranked college football teams include
Minnesota at No. 14 Ohio State, Mississippi at No. 4 Florida, Arkansas at No. 7
Texas, No. 9 Wisconsin at Michigan, and Tennessee at No. 15 Auburn . . . the
top matchups, though, are going to take place on
Saturday night, with No. 24 TCU at No. 2 Oklahoma,
No. 8 Alabama at No. 3 Georgia, and then finally No. 22 Illinois at No. 12 Penn
State.


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.

Betting on Tonight’s NCAA Football

GodsTips says that you are right. Humiliating the bookmaker in college football betting

have to admit that SMU lesbian former hoopster Jennifer Colli is also
quite the attractive babe.

Other Notable Events

The fight over the final playoff spot in the American League continues on
Thursday night, with the White Sox at rival Minnesota.
Chicago will send Gavin Floyd
(16-8, 3.84 ERA) to the mound in that contest, while the Twins will counter

for that game is set for 8:10pm ET
at The Metrodome.

As well, THE TOUR Championship gets underway at East Lake Country Club in Atlanta
on Thursday, with the Top 30 golfers in the FedExCup
standings all participating. Vijay Singh is the 6/1 Vegas favorite to win the
tournament, followed by Sergio Garcia at 7/1, and Phil Mickelson at 8/1. Jim Furyk is just behind that top three at 10/1 odds to win.

The Rest of the Schedule

The Cubs and Mets will finish out their series in New
York
on Thursday night, with Rich Harden (5-1, 1.66
ERA in the National League) going up against Pedro Martinez (5-6, 5.50 ERA).
Also on the NL schedule for Thursday: Arizona at St. Louis, Florida at
Washington, Cincinnati at Houston, Pittsburgh at Milwaukee, San Diego at the
Dodgers, and Colorado at San Francisco.

Making up the rest of the AL schedule on
Thursday:
Tampa Bay at Detroit, Cleveland at Boston, the Angels at Seattle, and the Yankees at Toronto. That last matchup will see the Blue Jays pulling out all
the stops to get Roy Halladay his 20th win of the season.

Finally, the WNBA’s Western Conference Finals get
underway on Thursday night, with San Antonio
at Los Angeles. The Eastern
Conference Finals will start on Friday night.

News from the Wire

Yankees starting pitcher Mike Mussina won his 19th game of the
season on Tuesday night against the Blue Jays, giving him a shot at win No. 20

night, but he’s expected to be able to play this weekend against the Cardinals.
. . Blues defenseman Erik Johnson could miss up to nine months after suffering

A Peek at the Future

Notable series for the last weekend of baseball’s regular season: the
Yankees at Boston, Tampa Bay at Detroit, Kansas City at Minnesota, Cleveland at
the White Sox, Washington at Philadelphia, Florida at the Mets, and the Cubs at
Milwaukee . . . Kyle Busch, Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle,
and Jimmie Johnson are all listed as the 6/1 Vegas co-favorites to pick up a

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
