Here are some sports betting injuries, plus news and notes
for Saturday
Arizona-USC
USC’s preseason Heisman Trophy
candidate, QB Josh Booty is out. Booty was injured in the second quarter of USC’s stunning loss to Stanford. His replacement is Mark
Sanchez a third-year sophomore making his first career start. USC will likely
also be without tailback Stafon Johnson. He is their
leading rusher with 378 yards and a remarkable 8.3 yards per carry.
Washington State-Oregon
It looks like the Cougars will be without the leading
receiver in the conference, wideout Brandon Gibson,
who has a heel injury. He is considered doubtful.
Connecticut-Virginia
Virginia
will likely have to beat undefeated Connecticut
without the second leading rusher in the ACC Cedric Peerman.
He is out with an ankle injury.
Which team is 16-2 as road underdogs of 7 or less? Which
team has gone under 26-4 after getting less than 275 yards total last game?
Which squad is 1-9 their last 10 as a favorite? Stevie Vincent of OffshoreInsiders.com believes
less is more and says just 3 game sides or over/under plays are worth betting
Saturday. Two are Level 5 including the Non-Conference over/under of the
QUARTER CENTURY. All three picks have 100% angles supporting them. Click now to

LSU-Kentucky
LSU wide receiver and return
playmaker should play, but may not get his normal playing time. He is slowed by a groin injury.
GA Tech-Miami
Yellow Jackets wide receiver is now expected to have the
services of starting wide receiver James Johnson, who has seven catches this
year. Also wide receiver Correy Earls will probably
get his first snaps since suffering a neck injury Sept. 29 versus the Virginia
Cavaliers.
SMU-Southern Miss
This is the first Wise Guy side selection from GodsTips
since last Sunday when the Redskins crushed the Lions as the NFC Game of the
Year. Keep in mind that the Inter-Conference Game of the Year goes Sunday with
Indianapolis-Dallas but first GodsTips has three college football Wise Guy
sides. SMU and Southern Miss is one as is the Big 10
