Here is everything gamblers need to know for the Thursday
card. Let’s start out with college football picks information.

Pittsburgh-South Florida

The Bulls defense ranks fourth in the nation in rushing
yards per game, allowing just 58.8. Their All-American DE George Selvie is questionable after missing last week’s game.
“Without any question this is the best running team USF
has faced all year,” says Brian Gould of ScoresOddsPicks.com. Pitt is led by the
1-2 punch of LeSean McCoy and LaRod
Stephens-Howling, who have a combined seven rushing TDs.

There is no doubt which team is likely to cover as this
game is Stevie Vincent’s Big East Game of the Decade. Vincent is the founder of
the revolutionary forensic sports handicapping, which has turned the
betting world on its heels.

Memphis-UAB

Last year the Tigers snapped UAB’s
seven-game series winning streak. The Blazers have played a tough schedule
including road games at Tennessee
and South Carolina. However, they
are 1-4 straight up and their only win was to Alabama
State. All four losses were by 13
or more.

At least statistically, the Blazers improved on defense.
They allowed 568 yards per game and 43 points per game in their first three.
Over their last two, they’ve allowed 314 yards per game.

Oregon State-Utah

Bob Warner of Lines-Maker.com says the big question is
will the Beavers suffer a letdown after beating top ranked USC last week. OSU whipped Utah
24-7 last year in a game in which the Utes lost QB Brian Johnson last in the
first half and RB Matt Asiata in the first
quarter.  Darrel Mack, who was planning
to redshirt, did not play. However, he would up rushing for 1,204 yards. All
three will play for the Utes tonight.

Utah is off
the short week, while Oregon State
had two additional days rest. The Utes though rested most of their starters in
a 37-21 win over Subdivision Weber
State. America’s
all-time greatest football service GodsTips, led by Mike Godsey and Grandmaster
sports handicapper Joe Duffy
says this game is the biggest play of the day in football or baseball.

Now let’s look at the MLB playoffs. We are waiting for one
of the bookmakers to post odds on how many stupid pictures of Dennis Eckersley we will have to put up with today on TBS.

White Sox-Rays

Javier Vazquez starts for Chicago
having lost three straight starts and posting a 13.50 ERA. Tampa
is a shocking 34-3 this season as a sportsbook
favorite of 150 or more. The Palehose have won six consecutive
road postseason contests.

Brewers-Phillies

CC Sabathia tries to tie the series, but he is pitching on
three days rest. His ERA is 0.83 in his last three starts. Brett Myers has an
ERA of 7.79 in his last three starts, but is 4-1 career wise to the Brew Crew
with a 1.77 ERA.

Milwaukee has
lost 15 of their last 18 to squads with a +.5 or better runs per game ratio. The
Phillies have won seven straight to the NL Central.

Dodgers-Cubs

The Cubs Carlos Zambrano has a 7.80 ERA in his last three
starts. His last three to LA have not been any better, sporting an 0-2 mark with a 7.58 ERA.  The Cubs are 17-3 this year +14.5 units
following a loss of four or more runs.

Now other betting events take center stage.

Palin-Biden

It’s debate time for Palin and Biden. This is the
World Series of Vice Presidential debates. The political betting
odds say that Barack Obama has exploded to a -240 favorite. It is safe to
say, all eyes will be on how much the line will move following the debate.

Dancing With the
Stars

Brooke Burke is now the favorite at +200 to win, with
Warren Sapp a close second at +250. Rumor is that models Joy Sartin and Cassia Riley will lead next year’s cast.

The Amazing Race

Andrew/Dan and Terence/Sarah are +400, but Nick/Starr are the clear cut favorites to win this CBS reality show at
+200.

World Series of
Poker

Dennis Phillips and Ivan Demidov
are the co-favorites according to the Vegas WSOP
betting line, but the odds have Peter Eastgate and Scott
Montgomery next at +450.

Survivor Gabon

Unlike the other reality shows, the favorites are more
clear-cut. Bog Crowley is +200 and
Ace Gordon +300, but no other contender is given better than 5-1 betting odds.
