\"Bet <\/a><\/p>\n

Here are news and notes and computer trends, as we take a look from a bettor’s standpoint, the Vanderbilt and South Carolina<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:STATE> televised on ESPN.  <\/span>South Carolina<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:STATE> is a 10 point road favorite with a total of 41 according to BetUs Sportsbook<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Gamecocks will start backup quarterback Chris Smelley<\/span>. However, Jimmy Ashton of Lines-Maker.com<\/font><\/a> says that is not necessarily bad news for USC. Starting QB Tommy Beecher threw four interceptions in his first career start to NC State last week. Smelley<\/span> came in and completed all five passes en route to two scoring drives. <\/p>\n

This is a huge revenge game for USC. Last year they were 6-1 and ranked sixth in the country, but were beaten in Columbia<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:CITY> by the Commodores 17-6. USC Running back Mike Davis starts after a token non-start, but non-benching last week in which he carried just 14 times, but rushed for 101 yards. <\/p>\n

Vanderbilt will likely be without starting running back Jeff Jennings because of a shoulder injury. This further depletes an offense that has several injuries at wide receiver including starter George Smith. <\/p>\n

Without any question, the biggest bet from a proven world class handicapper is from Stevie Vincent, the father of forensic sports handicapping<\/font><\/a>. He has the ESPN SEC Game of the Quarter Century on the side. More details are at the home page of OffshoreInsiders.com<\/font><\/a><\/span><\/b>  <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

For those who bet college football quarters<\/font><\/a> note that Vanderbilt has little depth on the defensive line. Any injury could be devastating. <\/p>\n

Here are computer betting trends, all records are against the spread. Vanderbilt is 2-11 off a win of 21 or more points. However, they are also 10-2 in the month of September<\/p>\n

As far as over\/under trends, South Carolina<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:STATE> has gone under 13-3 on the road after a game in which they committed three or more turnovers. <\/p>\n
