Here is the official betting previews for the Friday night card, Kansas-South Florida and Washington State-Baylor, which was moved up because of impending Hurricane Ike.

Kansas-South Florida

The Big East is just 3-8 against FBS teams and 0-4 to BCS conference squads by an average loss of almost four touchdowns per game. According to Cy McCormick, head of the online betting syndicate MasterLockLine.com, the defenses have an advantage. “The quarterbacks are very similar and the strength of each team. However the defenses won’t be caught off guard because they’ve practiced against the near carbon copies.”

The Jayhawks have won their first two games by an average of 69-10, yet they average just 3.7 yards per carry. The struggles have a lot to do with two new starting tackles, according to Bob Warner of Lines-Maker.com.

Here are spread betting trends with all records against the spread. The Jayhawks are 7-0 after allowing less than 170 yards passing last game. They are 10-1 following a game in which they allowed less than 20 points and 17-5 off a win.

South Florida is 9-2 at home and 6-2 off ATS loss. However, the Bulls are 0-5 against teams with a winning record.

Totals trends see the Jayhawks having gone under 6-1 against teams with a winning record. South Florida has gone over all seven off a straight up win, but under 10-3 after allowing less than 170 yards passing last game.

Last year, Georgia humiliated Hawaii as Hawaii as the Bowl Game of the Year. The football betting experts also nailed the Bowl Moneyline Game of the Year (Miss State +130 on Dec. 29), Regular Season Game of the Year in CFB (Nov. 22 USC 20-point winner to ASU laying three), NFL Game of the Year (Nov. 11 underdog Arizona beating Detroit by double digits).

Some of the other winners were: On Sept. 20, Miami Florida was the ESPN Game of the Year. Laying -2, they crushed Texas A&M 34-17. On Oct. 4, it was our Thursday Game of the Year on South Carolina -5 to Kentucky. They win by 15. October 13, it Penn State was the Big 10 Game of the Year. Laying seven, they smash Wisconsin by 31.

Finally on October 20, we had to sweat one.  Oct. 20 it was Florida beating Kentucky in the SEC Game of the Year. Then on Oct. 27, Tennessee squeaks one out against South Carolina as our Saturday ESPN Game of the Year.

Add to that, on Nov. 11 C-USA West Game of the Year on Tulsa, a bloodbath, while Cincinnati was a gift as our Big East GOY. Nov. 17 Kansas was our Big 12 edition and they win easily. But the biggest story of them all was on Nov. 22, USC laying just three points was the CFB Game of the Year. They win by 20!

Washington State-Baylor

Stevie Vincent, Senior Handicapper at OffshoreInsiders.com and head of BetOnSports360 says, “It seems too obvious, but the impending Hurricane Ike will be much more of a distraction to the Texas based Bears.” Washington State though has been outscored 105-16 in their first two games and now makes the long trek to Texas in a shorter week. They are consistent: next to last in total offense and last in pass efficiency and scoring defense.

Spread betting trends (against the spread) sees Washington State at 4-14 on the road off consecutive losses, while they’ve also gone over 25-11 after forcing a turnover.

As far as the top pick on the game: at press time MasterLockLine.com is compiling picks, but they report a large side and total from proven services are coming in. Check the home page of OffshoreInsiders.com for further details.
