Saturday's NCAAF Top 25 betting cheat sheet: Afternoon action

Florida State Seminoles at Florida Gators (+27.5, 44)

The task for host Florida is simple - knock No. 2 Florida State from the ranks of the unbeaten Saturday in the annual Thanksgiving weekend matchup between the rivals. Embattled Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston seemed no worse for wear in throwing for 225 yards and four touchdowns as the Seminoles broke a school record by scoring 80 points against Idaho. The freshman has thrown for 3,163 yards and 32 touchdowns this season.

The Gators have won seven of the last nine meetings but come in off one of the worst defeats in program history against FCS program Georgia Southern. As if the losses were not enough, the Gators also will see a lot streaks come to an end this season, including 22 straight years of playing in a bowl game. The six-game losing streak is their longest in 34 years and assures them of their first losing season since 1979.

LINE: Florida State is a 27.5-point fave after opening as low as -26. The total is steady at 44
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the low-70s with wind blowing across the field at 6 mph.
TRENDS:

* Seminoles are 4-0 ATS in their last four games.
* Gators are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 November games.
* Under is 4-0 in the last four meetings in Florida.

Ohio State Buckeyes at Michigan Wolverines (+16, 57)

While quarterback Braxton Miller has generated a lot of the headlines around Columbus, the Buckeyes' running game ranks first in the Big Ten and fifth nationally with 314 yards per game. Carlos Hyde (1,064 yards, 13 TDs) is the first running back ever to rush for 1,000 yards under Meyer, while Miller is the school's all-time leading rusher among quarterbacks with 2,724 yards.

Michigan has lost three of its last four contests, including a 24-21 defeat to Iowa last week in which Brady Hoke's team squandered a 14-point halftime lead. Still, the Wolverines' head coach remains optimistic heading into their showdown with the Buckeyes, saying earlier this week: "I am very confident that we can win, or we wouldn't play." Michigan's defense has been inconsistent this season, but Blake Countess leads the conference with five interceptions.

LINE: Ohio State opened as a 12-point fave, but the line has been bet up to -16. The total is set at 58.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the low-30s with wind blowing diagonally out of the SE at 7 mph.
TRENDS:

* Buckeyes are 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games following a SU win.
* Wolverines are 5-1 ATS in their last six games following a SU loss.
* Ohio State is 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings.

Minnesota Golden Gophers at Michigan State Spartans (-16, 41)

The Golden Gophers managed only four yards rushing against the Spartans last season, but David Cobb did not get a carry. The junior has emerged in 2013 with 1,010 yards and seven of his team’s 23 touchdowns on the ground, while quarterbacks Philip Nelson and Mitch Leidner have combined for 13. Leidner has not played the past two weeks while Nelson has thrown seven touchdown passes and no interceptions over the last five.

The Spartans, who play unbeaten Ohio State for the Big Ten title and a Rose Bowl bid on Dec. 7 in Indianapolis, have shut out five of their seven league opponents in the second half. Their offense has steadily improved with Cook at the helm and three receivers – Bennie Fowler, Tony Lippett and Macgarrett Kings Jr. – making at least 30 catches.

LINE: Michigan State is currently a 16-point fave, with the total steady at 41.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the low-30s with wind blowing across the length of the field at 9 mph.
TRENDS:

* Golden Gophers are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 November games.
* Spartans are 4-0 ATS in their last four conference games.
* Underdog is 10-2 ATS in the last 12 meetings.

Duke Blue Devils at North Carolina Tar Heels (-6, 60.5)

Blue Devils quarterback Anthony Boone is clicking again again after missing three games with a broken collarbone. He was less-than-spectacular upon his return, putting Brandon Connette back in the picture in a platoon role, but Boone took most of the snaps Saturday, throwing for 256 yards and three touchdowns with no turnovers or sacks.

North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron has pieced together a strong junior season, leading the team with 50 catches for 774 yards and three touchdowns. Things have gone so well for Ebron that he has decided to enter the NFL Draft next year and forego his final year of eligibility. His best game came against then-unbeaten Miami last month, when he grabbed eight passes for 199 yards and a 71-yard touchdown in the 27-23 loss.

LINE: North Carolina opened -5.5 but is up to -6. The total is set at 60.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the mid-40s with wind blowing diagonally out of the NE at 5 mph.
TRENDS:

* Blue Devils are 6-0 ATS in their last six conference games.
* Tar Heels are 6-0 ATS in their last six games on grass.
* Home team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings.

Alabama Crimson Tide at Auburn Tigers (+10.5, 54.5)

The early-season concerns about the Crimson Tide's defense have proven unfounded, as Alabama ranks third in the nation in total defense (263.9 yards per game) and leads the country at 9.3 points allowed per contest. The offense is often downplayed, but quarterback A.J. McCarron is enjoying another outstanding season, completing 68.6 percent of his passes for 2,399 yards with 23 touchdowns and five interceptions.

The Tigers boast the top ground game in the SEC with Tre Mason (1,153 yards, 17 TDs) and quarterback Nick Marshall (823 yards, nine TDs) leading the way, but they know they'll need to be more balanced against a tough Alabama defense. Auburn can't afford a slow start that would force it to the passing game, so the sometimes-suspect defense must slow down the Crimson Tide early.

LINE: Alabama is holding as a 10.5-point fave, while the total is 54.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the high-40s with wind blowing across the field at 8 mph.
TRENDS:

* Crimson Tide are 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 November games.
* Tigers are 6-0 ATS in their last six conference games.
* Under is 5-0-1 in Auburn's last six games following a bye week.

Baylor Bears at TCU Horned Frogs (+13, 64.5)

The Bears were hopeful leading rusher Lache Seastrunk would be ready to return from a groin injury that kept him sidelined the previous week against Texas Tech, but he was a no-go against Oklahoma State and the running game suffered, totaling just 94 rushing yards. Making things more difficult, third-leading rusher Glasco Martin has missed the last two games with a leg injury.

B.J. Catalon is on pace to become the first TCU player to lead the team in rushing in consecutive seasons since Joseph Turner led the Horned Frogs in three straight years from 2007-09. He and sophomore Aaron Green figure to get even more carries now that third-leading rusher Waymon James is no longer on the roster, though coach Gary Patterson would not reveal why at his weekly press conference Monday.

LINE: Baylor opened at -13 while the total is up a half-point to 64.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the mid-50s with wind blowing out of the SW at 7 mph.
TRENDS:

* Bears are 21-6 ATS in their last 27 games.
* Horned Frogs are 8-0 ATS in their last eight games following a bye week.
* Under is 9-2 in TCU's last 11 conference games.

Penn State Nittany Lions at Wisconsin Badgers (-24.5, 49.5)

Zach Zwinak had 149 rushing yards in last Saturday’s 23-20 loss to Nebraska and has put together three consecutive 100-yard outings to push his season total to 874 yards. Freshman quarterback Christian Hackenberg has fared well with 2,616 yards – fifth most in school history – and has 16 touchdown passes against 10 interceptions.

A strong defense that ranks fifth in scoring defense (13.4) and sixth in total defense (278.5) complements the rushing attack that is 34 yards away from surpassing last season’s school record for rushing yards (3,309). Star linebacker Chris Borland is eight tackles away from his third consecutive 100-tackle campaign and ranks sixth in school history with 400 stops while equaling the Big Ten record with 14 career forced fumbles.

LINE: Wisconsin is a 24.5-point fave after opening at -23.5. The total is set at 49 1/2.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the low-30s with wind blowing diagonally out of the SW at 7 mph.
TRENDS:

* Nittany Lions are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games following a SU loss.
* Badgers are 13-3-1 ATS in their last 17 games on fieldturf.
* Favorite is 8-0 ATS in the last eight meetings.

Saturday's NCAAF Top 25 betting cheat sheet: Evening action

Clemson Tigers at South Carolina Gamecocks (-5.5, 58)

The Tigers are flying on offense since scoring just 14 points in the loss to Florida State, averaging 51.5 points during their four-game winning streak. Quarterback Tajh Boyd threw five touchdown passes in last week’s 52-6 rout of The Citadel, giving him 102 for his career. Clemson ranks 18th nationally in scoring defense (20.2) and defensive end Vic Beasley is tied for second in the ACC with 10 sacks.

The Gamecocks have allowed 54 points during their four-game winning streak, 24 of those coming in a two-overtime victory at Missouri, and are 17th nationally in passing yards allowed per game (200.7). Jadeveon Clowney had 4.5 sacks in last season’s 27-17 victory at Clemson. South Carolina averages 465.8 yards of total offense and need 375 yards to match the school record of 5,499 yards set in 2010.

LINE: Clemson has dropped a half-point from its -6 opener, while the total is set at 58.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the low-40s with partly cloudy skies.
TRENDS:

* Tigers are 1-4 ATS in their last five games vs. teams with winning records.
* Gamecocks are 6-1 in their last seven games vs. ACC opponents.
* Under is 5-0 at South Carolina in its last five games vs. the ACC.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Stanford Cardinal (-14.5, 49)

Stanford has one of the nation's top rushing defenses, but Notre Dame is coming off a 235-yard rushing performance highlighted by Cam McDaniel's career-high 117. Last week's win against BYU was played in temperatures in the 20s with swirling winds and intermittent snow, but Irish quarterback Tommy Rees still threw for 235 yards and a touchdown in his final home game.

Cardinal quarterback Kevin Hogan has yet to complete 20 passes in a game this season, but he is 14-2 as a starter for his career, including an 8-0 mark against ranked opponents. Of course, it helps to have a weapon like Ty Montgomery, who matched the school record with five touchdowns in last week's win against Cal. "It's awesome," Hogan said, "just getting him the ball and he makes me look good."

LINE: Stanford is a 14.5-point favorite after opening at -14. The total is steady at 49.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the high-50s with clear skies.
TRENDS:

* Fighting Irish are 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight games following a SU win.
* Cardinal are 22-3-1 ATS in their last 26 games after scoring more than 40 points in their previous contest.
* Under is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.

Texas A&M Aggies at Missouri Tigers (-5, 66.5)

Johnny Manziel has dropped down in the Heisman discussion after his poor performance against LSU, but that doesn’t mean Missouri shouldn’t be afraid of what the Aggies signal caller can do. He put up 439 total yards and five touchdowns a year ago against the Tigers in a 59-29 rout that all but sealed his Heisman campaign. That seems like a long time ago for an Aggies' team that is allowing a league-high 460.1 yards per game.

For a Missouri program that has been defined by its offense in the Gary Pinkel era, the Tigers have been led by their defense this year. The pass rush leads the SEC with 35 sacks, 10 of which belong to defensive end Michael Sam, also a league high. Offensively, quarterback James Franklin proved himself healthy last week against Ole Miss, throwing for 142 yards and rushing for 42 after missing four games with a shoulder injury.

LINE: Missouri has jumped from a 4.5-point to a 5-point fave. The total is steady at 66.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the low-40s with partly cloudy skies.
TRENDS:

* Aggies are 6-0 ATS in their last six games following a SU loss.
* Tigers are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games.
* Over is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.

UCLA Bruins at USC Trojans (-3.5, 51.5)

Brett Hundley has thrown at least one touchdown pass in 24 of his 25 career games, including all 11 contests this season, and has completed 70.1 percent of his passes over the last four games. The Bruins' defense has been a terror in the third quarter this season, holding its opponents to a total of 34 points. Overall, 20 points continues to be the magic number for UCLA, as the Bruins have won 20 straight games when holding their opponent under 20.

USC will be honoring 20 seniors, although the Trojans are fortunate that Javorius Allen (439 rushing yards, nine TDs in his last four games) is not among them and will be back in 2014. Fellow sophomore Cody Kessler has not thrown for 300 yards in any game this season, but he has nine touchdown passes against only two interceptions over his last seven games.

LINE: UCLA is a steady 3.5-point fave, with the total up a half-point to 51.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the mid-60s with wind blowing across the field at 6 mph.
TRENDS:

* Bruins are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS loss.
* Trojans are 5-1 ATS in their last six conference games.
* Home team is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings.

Arizona Wildcats at Arizona State Sun Devils (-11.5, 60.5)

Arizona's Ka'Deem Carey rushed for 206 yards and scored a touchdown in each quarter in last week's win over the Ducks. Carey, on the Heisman radar, has 1,559 yards and 16 TDs on the season and has rushed for over 100 yards in 14 straight games. Quarterback B.J. Denker had a career day last week completing 19-of-22 passes for 189 yards while rushing for another 102 as the Wildcats snapped a two-game losing streak.

The Sun Devils have won six straight and are 6-0 at home this year with an average margin of victory of 26.8 points per game. Marion Grice, who is four yards shy of 1,000 on the season, left last week's game against UCLA on crutches and is questionable. If he can't go, the nation's 10th-highest scoring offense (41.9 points) is still confident in backups Deantre Lewis and D.J. Foster.

LINE: The opening line of Arizona State -12 has been bet down to -11.5. The total is set at 60 1/2.
WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the mid-50s with clear skies.
TRENDS:

* Wildcats are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a SU win.
* Sun Devils are 4-1 ATS in their last five games on grass.
* Under is 5-0 in the last five meetings at Arizona State.

Alabama at Auburn: What bettors need to know

Alabama Crimson Tide at Auburn Tigers (+10.5, 54.5)

Fans have been camped out since last weekend in anticipation of the latest installment of a bitter rivalry, as No. 5 Auburn hosts No. 1 Alabama on Saturday with a trip to the SEC Championship on the line. As if an in-state rivalry dating to 1893 weren't enough, the victor will remain in the national championship discussion. The winner of the Iron Bowl has won the BCS national championship the past four seasons.

Both teams are enjoying charmed seasons - Alabama has claimed nine of its 11 games by 21 points or more, and Auburn has won seven straight since a 35-21 loss at LSU. "We don't think we've played our best game," Auburn defensive lineman Nosa Eguae told reporters. "We know that game is still out there for us." They'll likely have to find it Saturday to knock off the Crimson Tide, who have won the last two meetings 42-14 and 49-0 and did not allow an offensive touchdown in either game.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS.

LINE: The line opened at Auburn +10.5, and jumped slightly to +11, but has since come back down to +10.5. The total hasn't moved from 54.5.

WEATHER: Temperature will be in the mid 50s with a 5 mph wind blowing across the field.

ABOUT ALABAMA (11-0, 6-4-1 ATS): The early-season concerns about the Crimson Tide's defense have proven unfounded, as Alabama ranks third in the nation in total defense (263.9 yards per game) and leads the country at 9.3 points allowed per contest. The offense is often downplayed, but quarterback A.J. McCarron is enjoying another outstanding season, completing 68.6 percent of his passes for 2,399 yards with 23 touchdowns and five interceptions. Leading rusher T.J. Yeldon (1,022 yards, 12 TDs) sat out last week's 49-0 win over Tennessee-Chattanooga with a toe injury but is expected to play.

ABOUT AUBURN (10-1, 9-2 ATS): The Tigers boast the top ground game in the SEC with Tre Mason (1,153 yards, 17 TDs) and quarterback Nick Marshall (823 yards, nine TDs) leading the way, but they know they'll need to be more balanced against a tough Alabama defense. Auburn can't afford a slow start that would force it to the passing game, so the sometimes-suspect defense must slow down the Crimson Tide early. If the Tigers are going to pull off the upset, they might need a big play on special teams from returner Chris Davis, who leads the nation in punt return average at 22.5 yards including an 85-yard touchdown at Tennessee.

TRENDS:

* Over is 3-1-1 in the last five meetings in Auburn.
* Favorite is 6-2 ATS in their last eight meetings.
* Under is 9-4-1 in the last 14 meetings.
* Alabama is 1-4 ATS in its last five road games versus a team with a winning home record.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. Alabama has won 18 straight away from home, the longest active streak in the FBS and one shy of the longest such streak in school history.

2. Auburn has scored at least 30 points in seven consecutive games for the first time since 1994. The Tigers have won 86 consecutive games when hitting the 30-point mark.

3. Already the school record holder in passing yards (8,355) and passing touchdowns (72), McCarron needs 16 completions to break John Parker Wilson's school mark of 665.

Ohio State at Michigan: What bettors need to know

Ohio State Buckeyes at Michigan Wolverines (+16, 57)

Ohio State has enjoyed one of the best seasons in school history, but for the Buckeyes, no outstanding campaign can be complete without a win over Michigan. The third-ranked Buckeyes, riding the longest winning streak in the nation, visit the Wolverines on Saturday for the 110th meeting in the historic rivalry. Ohio State has won a school-record 23 consecutive games and taken nine of the last 11 meetings with Michigan, which is scuffling to the finish line this season.

The Buckeyes, who rank third in the nation in points (48.7) and eighth in points allowed (18.4), already have clinched a spot in next week's Big Ten championship game against Michigan State. Still, Ohio State knows that a loss to Michigan would ruin its national title hopes, as it currently sits third in the BCS standings, desperately needing either Alabama or Florida State to lose. "It is different. It's not just another game. It's not," Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer said, vowing to remain focused on the Wolverines. "Our players know that. ... There is an extra pep in the step."

TV: Noon ET, ABC.

LINE: The line opened with the Wolverines as 12-point home dogs and has since jumped four points to +16. The total opened at 58 and has dropped to 57.

WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the mid 30s with a 10 mph wind blowing towards the North end zone.

ABOUT OHIO STATE (11-0, 6-4-1 ATS): While quarterback Braxton Miller has generated a lot of the headlines around Columbus, the Buckeyes' running game ranks first in the Big Ten and fifth nationally with 314 yards per game. Carlos Hyde (1,064 yards, 13 TDs) is the first running back ever to rush for 1,000 yards under Meyer, while Miller is the school's all-time leading rusher among quarterbacks with 2,724 yards. Linebacker Ryan Shazier, who leads the Big Ten with 108 tackles, headlines a fierce defense that has allowed 14 points or less in three of its last four games.

ABOUT MICHIGAN (7-4, 6-5 ATS): Michigan has lost three of its last four contests, including a 24-21 defeat to Iowa last week in which Brady Hoke's team squandered a 14-point halftime lead. Still, the Wolverines' head coach remains optimistic heading into their showdown with the Buckeyes, saying earlier this week: "I am very confident that we can win, or we wouldn't play." Michigan's defense has been inconsistent this season, but Blake Countess leads the conference with five interceptions.

TRENDS:

* Ohio State is 6-0 ATS in its last six meetings.
* Ohio State is 4-0 ATS in its last four meetings in Michigan.
* Favorite is 5-1 ATS in their last six meetings.
* Michigan is 5-1 ATS in its last six games following a SU loss.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. Ohio State defeated Michigan 26-20 last season but still trails the all-time series 58-45-6.

2. The Wolverines have ruined the Buckeyes' hopes for an undefeated season five times, the last coming when they upset a 10-0 Ohio State team in 1996.

3. Michigan WR Jeremy Gallon needs one catch to tie Steve Breaston (156) for fifth place on the school's all-time receptions list. The fifth-year senior has made at least one catch in 37 straight games.

Clemson at South Carolina: What bettors need to know

Clemson Tigers at South Carolina Gamecocks (-5.5, 58)

Clemson and South Carolina have met 110 times in a series dating to 1896, but when the fourth-ranked Tigers visit the ninth-ranked Gamecocks on Saturday, it will mark the first time both schools have met while ranked in the top 10. Beyond bragging rights in the Palmetto State for the next year, there are heavy BCS bowl implications on the line. The Tigers look destined to reach the Orange Bowl provided Florida State - the only team to beat Clemson this season - reaches the national championship game, while South Carolina could end up in the Sugar Bowl.

The series has been dominated by South Carolina of late, with the Gamecocks winning the past four matchups by a combined 124-54. Two junior stars projected to be top-10 picks in next spring’s NFL draft look to shine in the regular-season finale. Clemson wide receiver Sammy Watkins leads the ACC with seven 100-yard receiving games and is a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award, while South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has 23 career sacks.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN2.

LINE: The line has been steady at -5.5 and the total also hasn't moved from 58.

WEATHER: There is a 10 percent chance of rain with temperatures in the mid 40s.

ABOUT CLEMSON (10-1, 6-5 ATS): The Tigers are flying on offense since scoring just 14 points in the loss to Florida State, averaging 51.5 points during their four-game winning streak. Quarterback Tajh Boyd threw five touchdown passes in last week’s 52-6 rout of The Citadel, giving him 102 for his career. Clemson ranks 18th nationally in scoring defense (20.2) and defensive end Vic Beasley is tied for second in the ACC with 10 sacks.

ABOUT SOUTH CAROLINA (9-2, 5-6 ATS): The Gamecocks have allowed 54 points during their four-game winning streak, 24 of those coming in a two-overtime victory at Missouri, and are 17th nationally in passing yards allowed per game (200.7). Clowney had 4.5 sacks in last season’s 27-17 victory at Clemson. South Carolina averages 465.8 yards of total offense and need 375 yards to match the school record of 5,499 yards set in 2010.

TRENDS:

* Clemson is 0-4 ATS in its last four meetings.
* South Carolina is 6-1 ATS in its last seven versus the ACC.
* Over is 4-1 in Clemson's last five games overall.
* Under is 5-0 in South Carolina's last five games overall.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. The Gamecocks own the nation’s longest current home winning streak at 18 games.

2. Clemson K Chandler Catanzaro is second in ACC history in points (395) and sixth in field goals (66).

3. The Tigers lead the all-time series 65-41-4.

Texas A&M at Missouri: What bettors need to know

Texas A&M Aggies at Missouri Tigers (-5, 66.5)

As the regular season comes to a close, only a visit from Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel and No. 21 Texas A&M stand in the way of No. 5 Missouri and the SEC Championship game. The Tigers have been the surprise of the conference this season, following an injury-riddled 5-7 campaign with a 10-1 start in their second year of SEC play behind a balanced offense and a fierce pass rush. The Aggies took their turn as the hot newcomer last season, riding Manziel to a Cotton Bowl win, but have struggled defensively this season, especially against the run, ranking 107th nationally at 221 yards allowed per game.

The Tigers will to exploit that with their talented trio of running backs, led by Henry Josey (6.1 yards per carry, 12 touchdowns). If Missouri needs a blueprint to stop Manziel, it doesn’t need to look further than last week, when LSU used a conservative containment approach to hold the Aggies to 299 total yards and 10 points, both lows in the Manziel-Kevin Sumlin era. For a Texas A&M team that has played virtually no defense all year long, those kind of numbers offensively will continue to spell trouble.

TV: 7:45 p.m. ET, ESPN.

LINE: The line opened at -4.5, dropped to -4, then jumped up to -5. The total has held firm at 66.5.

WEATHER: There is a 10 percent chance of rain with temperatures in the low 40s.

ABOUT TEXAS A&M (8-3, 5-6 ATS): Manziel has dropped down in the Heisman discussion after his poor performance against LSU, but that doesn’t mean Missouri shouldn’t be afraid of what the Aggies signal caller can do. He put up 439 total yards and five touchdowns a year ago against the Tigers in a 59-29 rout that all but sealed his Heisman campaign. That seems like a long time ago for an Aggies' team that is allowing a league-high 460.1 yards per game, forcing all of the pressure onto Manziel.

ABOUT MISSOURI (10-1, 9-1-1 ATS): For a Missouri program that has been defined by its offense in the Gary Pinkel era, the Tigers have been led by their defense this year. The pass rush leads the SEC with 35 sacks, 10 of which belong to defensive end Michael Sam, also a league high. Offensively, quarterback James Franklin proved himself healthy last week against Ole Miss, throwing for 142 yards and rushing for 42 after missing four games with a shoulder injury.

TRENDS:

* Over is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.
* Texas A&M is 1-5 ATS in its last six conference games.
* Missouri is 6-1 ATS in its last seven conference games.
* Under is 4-1 in Missouri's last five home games.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. With a win, Pinkel will tie Don Faurot as the all-time winningest coach in program history with 101 victories.

2. Due to scheduling quirks related to conference realignment, the teams met in College Station in each of the last three seasons.

3. Missouri is one of five schools ranked in the Top 15 nationally in both scoring offense and scoring defense.

English Breakfast: Premier League betting cheat sheet

Forget Champions League and Europa League. Premier League football is back this weekend with six matches on the board Saturday.

Aston Villa v Sunderland (+105, +240, +320)

Why bet Aston Villa: A short week for the Villains as the club posted a decent 2-2 draw at West Brom Monday. Villa has not lost in its previous three matches in the league and, as we saw Monday, the return of Fabian Delph and Andreas Weimann from injury injects creativity and skill in the Villains' attack. Expect more on the weekend.

Key players out/doubtful: Jores Okore, Charles N'Zogbia, Joe Bennett, Gary Gardner

Why bet Sunderland: With just one point in six matches away from home, the Black Cats are the worst road club in the League. But it's hard to imagine with the clubs they've put to the sword recently (Man City, Newcastle). There is no question that they are playing better football under Gus Poyet, but it's time for players like Jozy Altidore to pick up the scoring slack that has marred the side thus far.

Key players out/doubtful: Carlos Cuéllar

2012-13 fixture result: Aston Villa 6, Sunderland 1

Key betting note: Sunderland has not scored in their last four matches away from home.

Cardiff v Arsenal (+550, +300, -163)

Why bet Cardiff: The Welsh soccer gods smiled on Cardiff last week as a last minute goal by Kim Bo-Kyung salvaged a draw with Manchester United. The home crowd will be buzzing once again with the top club in the league in town. It will be tough for the Bluebirds, but with confidence high and the side looking to climb out of the bottom quarter of the table, don't expect them to roll over.

Key players out/doubtful: Rudy Gestede

Why bet Arsenal: A win over hot Southampton last week erased memories of a hard 1-0 loss away to Man United. An incredibly-easy brace by striker Olivier Giroud upped the Frenchman's goal tally to seven on the season. Theo Walcott made his return in the aforementioned victory, but will probably start from the bench Saturday. How do you replace the attacking midfield triumvirate of Jack Wilshere, Santi Cazorla and Mesut Ozil?

Key players out/doubtful: Lukas Podolski, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ryo Miyaichi, Yaya Sanogo

2012-13 fixture result: N/A

Key betting note: The Gunners have played under the 2.5 goal total in four-straight matches.

Everton v Stoke (-163, +300, +525)

Why bet Everton: The Toffees don't lose a whole lot, but they've been a draw machine recently. Everton has drawn in three-straight matches and has yet to lose at Goodison Park this season. Romelu Lukaku was a man possessed in last week's 3-3 draw in the Merseyside Derby, scoring the second and third goals.

Key players out/doubtful: Darron Gibson, Leighton Baines, Arouna Koné

Why bet Stoke: Undefeated in three games, the Potters posted a very good 2-0 victory over Sunderland their last time out. Stoke needs momentum and building on that victory over the Black Cats is a good place to start. If anything, the Potters get scoring from all positions. Only Charlie Adam has more than one goal, despite the side tallying 12 on the campaign.

Key players out/doubtful: Marc Wilson, Kenwyne Jones

2012-13 fixture result: Everton 1, Stoke 0

Key betting note: Stoke has just one point in its previous four away matches.

Norwich v Crystal Palace (+100, +240, +333)

Why bet Norwich: Basically, the Canaries are the lesser of two evils here. They sit 16th with 11 points and are coming off a disappointing 2-1 loss to Newcastle last time out. They've managed just three wins on the season, but two of those have come at home at Carrow Road.

Key players out/doubtful: Ricky van Wolfswinkel, Alexander Tettey, Elliott Bennett, Anthony Pilkington, Robert Snodgrass

Why bet Crystal Palace: Because if any of these two is 'hotter', it's Palace. The Eagles are coming off a 1-0 victory in their last effort and drew with Everton in the previous game. New gaffer Tony Pulis could spark the club to get out of the doldrums of the table and three points in Norwich will go a long way.

Key players out/doubtful: Adlène Guédioura, Marouane Chamakh, Yannick Bolasie, Jerome Thomas

2012-13 fixture result: N/A

Key betting note: Norwich has played over the 2.5 total in five of its last six Premier League games.

West Ham v Fulham (-118, +250, +400)

Why bet West Ham: Remember when the Hammers hammered Tottenahm 3-0? Well, that's a distant memory as the club has just two goals in five matches since. They were dispatched 3-0 by Chelsea in their last match, so really, there's nowhere to go but up. Hosting Fulham, who is on the worst run of form in the league, is a perfect prescription.

Key players out/doubtful: Mladen Petric, Alou Diarra, Andy Carroll, Razvan Rat, Ricardo Vaz Te

Why bet Fulham: Hard to say. They've lost four-straight matches, but all four were to teams in the top-10. The side lacks a killer pass in the final-third of the pitch, but Darren Bent and Dimitar Berbatov are still excellent goalscorers.

Key players out/doubtful: Hugo Rodallega, Damien Duff, Brede Hangeland, Sascha Riether

Key betting note: Three of West Ham's last four matches at Upton Park have gone over the 2.5 goal total.

Newcastle v West Brom (+105, +250, +300)

Why bet Newcastle: Nobody in England is playing better football at the moment. The Magpies have won three-straight matches and have earned their spot at No. 8 in the table. Loïc Remy has come in and scored eight goals and made fans forget the name Demba Ba.

Key players out/doubtful: Ryan Taylor

Why bet West Brom: The Baggies will be a little disheartened, having botched a two-goal lead against Villa Monday. Still, they've mustered five points from their last three matches and sit a respectable 11th in the table.

Key players out/doubtful: Zoltán Gera, Ben Foster, George Thorne

2012-13 fixture result: Newcastle 2, West Brom 1

Key betting note: Newcastle has lost just won of its six home games this season (3W, 2D, 1L)

UFC TUF 18 betting: Maynard vs. Diaz so close statistically
By MMAODDSBREAKER

It’s a sneaky trilogy dating back to 2007. Nate Diaz first met Gray Maynard on the fifth season of The Ultimate Fighter, when Diaz won by guillotine choke to advance to the show’s finals.

In 2010, the two men met again in the Octagon for a main event matchup that resulted in a split decision win for Maynard. The win pushed Maynard into a title eliminator matchup that led to his two eventual title fights against Frankie Edgar, while Diaz spent time at welterweight, before returning to lightweight and earning a shot against Benson Henderson.

Both men failed in their lightweight title opportunities and are now coming off recent TKO losses. It’s a tough spot, but someone will get to turn things around while the other will be flung down the division ranks with another defeat.

Although Diaz first opened as a slight favorite, the market quickly pushed the line towards Maynard where it has remained. Maynard is now a -140 favorite, with Diaz now an underdog at +120.

Tale of the tape:

Physically, these two have very different builds that are worth noting. Maynard is a compact and powerful 5-foot-8 lightweight with a below-average 70-inch reach, while Diaz is a tall and lean 6-foot with a huge 76-inch reach.

MMA historically favors the longer fighters and Diaz’s long range compounded by his Southpaw stance give him some strong advantages in standup striking. In addition, Diaz is six years younger than Maynard, who is - perhaps surprisingly - now approaching the age of 35. Every one of these factors favors the underdog.

Striking matchup:

When it comes to striking offense, Diaz gets the technical advantages in accuracy and pace while Maynard has more punch-for-punch power. Diaz is very accurate with his long-range jab and when he gets opponents moving backwards, he can overwhelm them with staggering volume (as he did in his record-setting performance against Donald Cerrone).

Maynard shows slightly better defensive metrics than Diaz, but only slightly, and Maynard’s chin rating has been heading south fast in the last two years. Overall, if these guys stand and trade it will be Maynard trying to counter with power while Diaz should be able to control the cage and land the larger volume. These factors may cancel each other out in the “who will score a knockdown first” prediction, but on the score cards it favors Diaz.

The strange thing is that this scenario is basically how their second fight played out. Diaz outworked and outscored Maynard significantly in all three rounds, yet lost a split decision. The lack of definitive damage should have meant the controlling fighter would have won rounds, but in such a close fight it appears the judges were hedging a bit. It remains a rare case when judges scored against the more active fighter in a fight that stayed standing.

Grappling matchup:

On the ground is where things really diverge. Maynard has strong ground control stats and has rarely been put on his back. He attempts takedowns at a slightly higher than average pace and lands about half of them. When combined with his very strong takedown defense (he ranks ninth in the UFC all-time), he dominates on the ground with his wrestling.

Diaz, on the other hand, is perfectly content to fight off of his back. He spends most of his ground time on his back but using the position to attempt frequent submissions. The notoriously dangerous guard game of the Diaz brothers is justified with Nate alone earning seven submission stoppages in the UFC. In their last fight, Maynard didn’t even try to work any ground and pound, instead choosing to leave the fight standing. If Maynard repeats this strategy, Diaz is unlikely to get this fight to the ground.

Final analysis:

I can’t claim to know what the judges were thinking in 2010, despite being in the arena that night in Fairfax, VA. But I do see this playing out similarly to their second fight. Diaz will always have range control and aggression on his side, but the lack of power that he uses led judges to score against him in their last fight. Maynard didn’t want to fight Diaz on the ground last time, and that will likely be true again.

The line is close for good reason. These two guys stylistically cancel each other out. Maynard is susceptible to hard hitters, but that’s not Diaz. And Diaz has exposed power strikers on the ground, where Maynard won’t let this go.

In his last fight, Diaz was defeated by a more aggressive striker in Josh Thomson, so maybe Maynard will cut to the chase and try to get Diaz on the defensive. Conversely, the threshold for Maynard’s knockdown resiliency appears to be declining and maybe Diaz has enough power to wobble him. These are all reasons why this moneyline should remain close throughout fight week, and why no pick can be made with certainty.

College Football odds Week 14 Opening Line Report

Ohio State Buckeyes at Michigan (+13.5)

Even if nothing is on the line, this game is always huge. In this case, the ramifications for Ohio State are huge.

The Buckeyes (11-0, 6-4-1 ATS) have a shot at squeezing into the BCS Championship Game if they can remain unbeaten. Michigan (7-4 SU, 6-5 ATS) has no shot at reaching the Big Ten title game, but the Wolverines’ season would be deemed a full success if they beat the archrival Buckeyes.

Michigan is 1-8 SU and ATS in its last nine against Ohio State, winning 40-34 two years ago at the Big House but failing to cash as an 8.5-point chalk.

“Another double-digit favorite in which this plays into the favorite all the way,” Korner said. “Ohio State needs the game, while Michigan is playing for some obscure bowl game being played on a Tuesday night sometime in the future. There is no way Ohio State is distracted."

“Our range went from Ohio State -10.5 to -14.5, and we sent out -13.5. It looks like there was some early money on Michigan, but we're not going for that. Anyone hanging this line on the light side will pay for it come game time.”

UCLA Bruins at Southern California Trojans (-6)

Prior to this weekend, both these teams had a shot to reach the Pac-12 title game. But Arizona State’s victory over UCLA on Saturday knocked both the Bruins and USC out of contention, so they’ll play this one for pride.

Southern Cal (9-3, 6-6 ATS) has stunningly regained its form since firing Lane Kiffin, going on a 6-1 SU run (5-2 ATS), including a 47-29 victory at Colorado on Saturday as a 21-point favorite. UCLA (8-3 SU, 7-4 ATS) had won three in a row SU before the 38-33 loss to ASU as a 3-point home underdog.

“This is a good game, which we wouldn't have expected four weeks ago,” Korner said. “Four of my oddsmakers had this in the range of USC -3 to -5.5. I personally had -9. USC has been the nuts since their shakeup. I tempered my bad line to send out USC -6, while I stared at a -3.5 on the offshores. Both teams are having good seasons, but USC is winning games by an average of almost 17 points the past five contests. The only big game UCLA has had in the past five weeks was at home against Colorado. No big feat. I think this number climbs come game time.”

This week: -14.5 vs. Southern Mississippi

UAB may be better than its five-game losing streak suggests. As a 17-point underdog last Saturday, it extended an 8-3 Rice team to overtime before falling 37-34. This week's matchup should be a good one for the Blazers. The weakness of their team (232.2 rushing yards allowed per game) is going up against a futile Southern Mississippi rushing attack (70.3 ypg). On the other side of the ball, UAB averages 181.1 yards on the ground while the Golden Eagles give up 231.8.

Southern Mississippi has not won a game since the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl on Dec. 24, 2011. For those counting, that's 23 consecutive losses. That also means zero career wins for head coach Todd Monken, who replaced UNC-bound Larry Fedora after the 2011 campaign. Freshman quarterback Nick Mullens threw two pick-sixes in last week's 42-21 setback against Middle Tennessee. The Golden Eagles lost 27-19 as 4-point home favorites against UAB last year and they are now 0-4 ATS in the last four head-to-head meetings.

Team to beware: Western Michigan Broncos (1-10 SU, 3-8 ATS)

This week: +35 at Northern Illinois

The 1-10 Broncos are still playing with freshman quarterback Zach Terrell, who has made five starts in place of senior Tyler Van Tubbergen. Only once has Terrell thrown for more touchdowns than interceptions (Western Michigan's lone win of the season, 31-30 scalp of Massachusetts on Oct. 26). Tuesday signals the final home game for Northern Illinois QB Jordan Lynch. He has thrown seven TDs and zero picks in his last four games for the undefeated and 16th-ranked Huskies.

Western Michigan is 1-8 ATS in its last nine conference games, 1-7 ATS in its last eight overall, 2-13-1 ATS in its last 16 against Northern Illinois, and 0-8 ATS in its last eight road trips in this head-to-head series.

Total team: Louisiana Tech Bulldogs (4-7 SU, 2-9 O/U)

This week: 48 at Texas-San Antonio

Louisiana Tech will likely be without running back Kenneth Dixon and wide receiver Andrew Guillot for Saturday's contest at Texas-San Antonio. Dixon (knee) has 151 rushes for 917 yards and four touchdowns (plus one receiving) in 10 games. Guillot (arm) has 26 receptions for 320 yards and four touchdowns in seven games. The Bulldogs have scored 14 points in each of their last two outings. Without Dixon in last week’s loss to Tulsa, they attempted 43 passes and were picked off four times.

The under is 4-1 in Louisiana Tech's last five conference games and 9-2 in its last 11 overall. As for Texas-San Antonio, the under is 7-1 in its last eight against Conference-USA opposition and 5-1 in its last six overall.

Football lines that make you go hmmm...
by Jason Logan

Texas A&M Aggies at Missouri Tigers (-4.5)

Missouri is the poster child for our weekly “Football lines that make you go hmmm…”, having been featured a few times throughout the season.

The biggest reason we keep coming back to the Tigers is the overall lack of respect from the betting market, which has discounted Mizzou all the way to a 9-1-1 ATS record – tied with Wisconsin as the nation’s best bet.

Books seem to be selling the Tigers short one last time against Texas A&M in the season finale. Missouri is a 4.5-point home favorite with more than enough motivation.

Not only is a shot at the SEC Championship Game on the line but revenge is on Mizzou’s mind after Johnny Manziel booked his ticket to pick up the Heisman with a 449-yard, five-TD performance in a 59-29 rout of Missouri last season.

Texas A&M has not performed well in its limited road games, going 0-3 ATS, and the Tigers will not hesitate to lay it on thick if they get up on the Aggies at home Saturday night.

College Football Line Watch Total too low for Civil War?

Each week during the college football season, Steve Merril looks at the NCAAF odds and tells you which spread to bet now, which one to bet later, and which total to watch as the week plays out.

Spread to wait on

Minnesota Golden Gophers (+14.5) at Michigan State Spartans

This is a terrible scheduling spot for Michigan State. Heavy money poured in against the Spartans last week, but they still waxed Northwestern 30-6.

That win gave Michigan State the Legends division championship. The Spartans are in the Big Ten title game, so this game against Minnesota means absolutely nothing.

Minnesota has flown under the radar this season. The Gophers are 8-3 SU and ATS, covering in five straight games. Minnesota will take this game more seriously than Michigan State as the Gophers are looking to improve their bowl destination.

While we’re already getting over the key number of 14, every point helps so we’ll wait and hopefully grab the Gophers at +16 or more.

Total to watch

Oregon State Beavers at Oregon Ducks (67.5)

What happened to Oregon’s offense last week? The Ducks scored just 16 points against a bad Arizona defense. That was just the fourth time they’ve scored less than 34 points over their last 38 games. The Ducks still rolled up 506 yards of offense against Arizona but three turnovers did them in.

Neither Oregon State nor its defense has fared well in the Civil War. The Beavers have lost seven of the last 10 meetings while allowing Oregon to score 31 points or more in eight of those 10 games. The Ducks scored 48 and 49 points over the last two years.

The Beavers have a potent passing offense led by QB Sean Mannion. He has 4,089 passing yards with a 34-to-13 TD/INT ratio. Oregon State will score as the Ducks’ defense has fallen apart in recent weeks.

Any total posted less than 70 may be too low for this rivalry game barring bad weather.

Betting NCAAF teams on the bowl game bubble Better late than never, right?

With the majority of FBS teams wrapping up their regular seasons this week, a handful of schools still have a shot at becoming bowl-eligible. Yet, with 70 teams having already gained bowl eligibility - matching the exact number of bowl slots available - there will be plenty of jockeying between teams with tenuous grips on a spot and those looking to join the fray.

Here are four teams facing must-win games this week:

Syracuse Orange (5-6, 3-4 ACC)

This week: vs. Boston College Eagles (7-4, 4-3)

The Orange had a golden opportunity to secure their bowl eligibility against Pitt, but the Panthers pulled out a 17-16 victory to lock up their own bowl bid last week. Syracuse has dropped back-to-back games - scoring just 19 points over that stretch - and won't be given any favors in their season finale facing an Eagles team looking to improve its own bowl standing. Even if Syracuse wins, there's no guarantee the Orange will land in a bowl game. The ACC already has 10 bowl-eligible teams, meaning that somebody will likely be left out if the Orange prevail.

Syracuse is a 2.5-point underdog against Boston College.

Rutgers Scarlet Knights (5-5, 2-4 AAC)

This week: at Connecticut Huskies (1-9, 1-5)

The Scarlet Knights looked to be cruising to certain bowl eligibility after opening the season 4-1, but have since dropped four of their last five to leave their postseason status in doubt. Fortunately for Rutgers, the remaining schedule is a giant cupcake, beginning with Saturday's game in Connecticut. The Huskies are coming off their first victory of the season, but will be in tough against a Scarlet Knights offense racking up nearly 380 yards of total offense per game. And should Rutgers lose, it still has one more shot in its season finale against 2-8 South Florida.

Rutgers is a 3-point favorite versus Connecticut Saturday.

Florida Atlantic Owls (5-6, 3-4 C-USA)

This week: vs. Florida International Golden Panthers (1-10, 1-6)

The Owls' transformation from Conference USA also-ran to bowl eligibility contender has been nothing short of astounding. And the team is being rewarded for its hard work with the easiest game of any bubble team. Florida Atlantic enters as a heavy favorite against the Golden Panthers, who have lost six straight games, with their last three defeats coming by a combined 109 points. The Owls have reeled off three straight victories since interim coach Brian Wright took over for Carl Pellini, who stepped down after confessing to taking drugs.

Florida Atlantic is a 28.5-point favorite versus visiting FIU.

NCAAF betting: Georgia QB Aaron Murray out for season

It looks like Aaron Murray's career with the Georgia Bulldogs has come to a premature end.

According to ESPN, the quarterback tore the ACL in his left knee in Saturday's 59-17 thumping of the Kentucky Wildcats.

Murray had a record-setting career in Athens and finishes as the SEC's all-time leading passer.

Georgia faces in-state rival Georgia Tech next week and Murray's absence will be significant to the spread.

"Murray is worth between three and four points depending on the competition," says Mike Perry, an oddsmaker with Sportsbook. "Versus Georgia Tech he would be worth 3.5-points."

River City Sharps

Not gonna lie to you, this line doesn't make a lot of sense to us. We know Boise St is at home and New Mexico is only 3-8 on the season, but this is a BIG number and we really question if Boise can handle the cover. Consider that New Mexico, while they have struggled defensively, score 34.2 ppg. The bigger problem has obviously been their defense, where they are allowing a staggering 42.5 ppg. So with that in mind, we expect Boise State to be able to score at will against New Mexico, but the Boise defense isn't exactly the second coming of Alabama! They allow 24.4 ppg and 23 first downs per game. This is just too big a number against a team that has proven they can score (they scored 28 LW against Fresno and 42 the week before against Colorado St) We will take our chances here, so the Sharps say...

Matchup: Penn State at Wisconsin
Time: 3:30 PM EDT (Sat)
Play: Wisconsin (-24 -110)
Line Source: William Hill
Posted on: November 29, 2013 @ 2:21:18 PM EST


The Badgers could have won by a greater margin last week with some missed opportunities as the defense held Minnesota to less than 180 yards with no offensive points. Wisconsin can make a case as being one of the best two-loss teams in the nation but the paths to a BCS bowl are limited. Penn State played well against Nebraska last week at home only to fall in overtime. Road games for the Lions have gone poorly this season, going 0-3 S/U and ATS and this will be a very difficult matchup with Wisconsin featuring dramatic statistical edges and with revenge after Penn State pulled out a narrow win last season at home against the eventual Big Ten champions. There is still a lot at stake for the Badgers in the final home game of the season despite the run of conference championships ending and Penn State has been fortunate to have six wins this season. Wisconsin is known for its offense but the defense has allowed an average of six points per game this season at home while Penn State has allowed 37 points per game on the road. At home Wisconsin is gaining 7.8 yards per play while allowing 3.6 yards per play in contrast with the Penn State road splits, gaining just 4.9 yards per play and allowing over 6.0 yards per play. Cold conditions should only help the home team with one of the best rushing attacks in the nation and Penn State has seen two of its wins go to overtime the lone semi-quality win coming against Michigan at home in one of the wildest games of the season, a game Penn State had no business winning. The favorite has covered in eight straight meetings in this series and while this looks like a huge number at first glance, it is more than justified as Wisconsin is 15-5 ATS as a home favorite the last 20 attempts and Coach Andersen has an amazing spread record the last two years.

Last week’s game meant everything for Tennessee as the Volunteers sought to redeem an ugly loss from 2012 against state rival Vanderbilt. The Volunteers appeared to have the game wrapped up a few different times before a bizarre finish and it will be a very tough loss to bounce back from. A bowl game is no longer an option and Kentucky will be up for a more manageable opportunity this week as the program has some positive momentum despite the rebuilding season. The Wildcats played Vanderbilt as well as Tennessee did two weeks ago and the home results have been poor due to an impossible schedule in Lexington this season. Kentucky actually gains more yards per play on offense than Tennessee despite scoring just 21 points per game this season and the defensive numbers are similar. The home team has won outright in five of the last seven seasons with the both home losses in that span coming in overtime games which makes the home underdog spread above a field goal extremely attractive for the Wildcats. Tennessee has been out-gained in nine of the last 10 games with the lone exception being a narrow win over South Alabama as the Volunteers have really been no better than lowly Kentucky this season despite picking up a few more wins. On the road Tennessee is gaining just 4.9 yards per play while allowing 6.9 yards per play and the emotional hangover should be severe after missing out on a golden opportunity last season and seeing postseason dreams dashed.

Play: Colorado State (-15 -110)
Line Source: Wynn
Posted on: November 29, 2013 @ 2:21:18 PM EST


It seemed that bad weather might help Air Force last week at home but the Falcons lost badly, falling to 2-9 on the season after the lopsided loss to UNLV in the final home game of the season. With a 13-game schedule Colorado State needs to win to make the postseason as the Rams failed in a big game last week at Utah State, being shutout in a game that featured very difficult weather conditions. The offense has been exceptional for the Rams outside of last week and this should be a big opportunity for Colorado State, looking to snap a seven-game slide in this series. At home the Rams are gaining 7.0 yards per play and this could be a rout as the Air Force defense is surrendering huge numbers, allowing over 38 points per game and over 477 yards per game. Opponents are rushing for 5.1 yards per rush against Air Force while the banged up pass defense for Air Force has surrendered over 72 percent completions for opposing quarterbacks. Colorado State knows what they will get from Air Force on offense and the Rams allow just 4.0 yards per rush this season with even better numbers at home. Air Force has actually been out-rushed in four of the last six games despite being a team that runs virtually every play which signals how bad the defense has been. Colorado State has a lot at stake and the Rams have covered in five of the last six games as a favorite and the series history favoring Air Force should provide plenty of motivation to the superior team.

Matchup: Notre Dame at Stanford
Time: 7:00 PM EDT (Sat)
Play: Notre Dame (+15.5 -110)

Posted on: November 29, 2013 @ 2:21:18 PM EST


It has been a wild few weeks in the Pac-12 as Stanford was handed the Pac-12 North title with the stunning loss for Oregon last week. Next week’s game with Arizona State will determine a Rose Bowl slot so this non-conference game may be less meaningful for the Cardinal. It has been a solid 8-3 season for the Irish with some very high quality wins but a few upset losses that look even worse at this point in the season. These teams are very close statistically despite the two touchdown spread and the revenge factor from the controversial game last season may be overblown as next week’s game is certainly more important for Stanford while this is a huge game for Notre Dame to close the season. This may be too many points as Notre Dame has proven it can hang with top notch competition and Stanford has had a lot of close games until last week’s blowout win over local rival California. Notre Dame has allowed just 3.7 yards per rush on the road this season and the Irish have gained 6.5 yards per play on offense in road games. Stanford has not been as dominant as one would expect in home games and the underdog has covered in five of the last eight meetings in this series with the road team covering in three of the last four years. In the last five years Notre Dame has been a double-digit underdog just three times, covering in all three instances.

Top 13 games

Duke is 4-1 vs spread as an underdog this year- they haven’t lost any game since September, but Blue Devils are 2-14 in last 16 games vs North Carolina, losing eight of last nine in series where underdog is 7-4 vs spread in last 11 games.

Spartans allowed total of six points in their last two home games. Overall, underdogs are 8-4 vs spread in series.

Georgia lost 4-year starting QB Murray (knee) last week, sad thing; his replacement is Hutson Mason, highly thought of but very inexperienced; Dawgs won 11 of last 12 games with Georgia Tech, winning last four by average score of 36-21 in series when Georgia won its last five visits here, by 14-6-14-7-17 points.

Aggies allowed 33-38-34 points in winning two of previous three road games.

Tide is 4-3 in last seven visits here, winning 26-21/42-14 in last two. Bama beat Texas A&M 49-42 back on Sept 14; since then, they’ve allowed total of 50 points in eight I-A games, going 5-3 vs spread. Tide is 1-2 as road favorite this year, winning away games by 7 at A&M, 48-7 at Kentucky, 20-7 at Miss State.

Gamecocks are 5-0 SU at home this year, 2-3 as home favorites, winning by 17-10-7-18-5 points; five of their last seven I-A games were decided by 7 or less points.

USC won 12 of last 14 games with crosstown rival UCLA, but lost 38-28 in Pasadena LY; Bruins lost last seven visits to Coliseum (1-6 vs spread) by average score of 37-9.

Stanford pummeled rival Cal last week, after playing USC/Oregon the two weeks before that, so they could be little drained here; Cardinal are 6-0 at home, 2-2 as home favorites, winning on Farm by 21-14-3-14-6 points. Last week was first time in last six games Stanford scored more than 26 points- they’re 1-2 as double digit favorite this season.

Home side lost last four Arizona-ASU games; Wildcats won 31-27/20-17 in last two visits here, in series where underdog is 7-1-1 vs spread in last nine meetings and average total in last three is 64.0.

CLEMSON (415) AT SOUTH CAROLINA (416)
Latest Line: South Carolina -4.5; Total: 58.5

Clemson star QB Tajh Boyd has never beaten South Carolina, and the Gamecocks have made him look bad in the process. In three losses, SU and ATS, Boyd has completed just 45.1% of his passes for 4.77 YPA, with two TDs and three INTs against SC. One of the nation's most explosive offenses this year, Clemson scored a total of 37 points in those losses. South Carolina DE Jadeveon Clowney had 4.5 sacks in last year's meeting, a 27-17 SC win. Both teams enter on four-game SU winning streaks, going 3-1 ATS.

Bob Balfe
Alabama/Auburn Comp Pick
Alabama -10 over Auburn
Auburn is a great football team and they are fun to watch, but I don't think any of us are giving Alabama credit. This is a dynasty that we will be talking about 20-30 years from now. The players on this Tide Defenses DO NOT miss tackles. Auburn has a newer head coach and I always am a true believer that teams have to go through their growing pains before they make it to the top. This would be one of those games. Betting against Alabama is never smart. The scary thing is they have been crushing teams this year and are a shell of who they were the last two years as far as big named talent. Everyone on this Bama team does their job. Today we say Roll Tide.

GamingToday's Consensus Picks November 30, 2013 6:31 AM by GT Staff

NCAA Football

347 Boston College -1½: The Eagles from Chestnut Hill have really put it together late in the season winning four straight games giving them a seven win season at this point and with a win today on the road at Syracuse they will be sitting on a very good bowl bid.

358 Illinois +3½: After Northwestern lost at home to Ohio State on October 5th in what was a very strange ending their season went in the tank as they dropped their next 7 games.

360 Indiana -20: All we can say about Purdue is that they are really bad and at least the Hoosiers can put some points on the board and this game looks like blow out city, we will lay the lumber in Bloomington.

365 Minnesota +16: The Spartans from Michigan State would love to have that one loss at Notre Dame back but thats not to be and now must face a very game Minnesota team that has covered five straight games, we look for the Golden Gophers to stay very close in this game.

388 Auburn +11: All the Crimson Tide needs to do is win this game, they have no interest in blowing out the Auburn Tigers, Auburn really has had a great season and want to prove that they can hang with the Tide in this battle for bragging rights in Alabama.

420 Stanford -14: The Cardinal has had this game circled all year as they still remember the Irish stand on the one yard line last year holding off Stanford to go undefeated. Stanford gets their revenge tonight.

Pezgordo 2013 College Football Picks – YTD: 35-32 (+0.67 units)
419 Notre Dame +14 (1 unit)
The Irish beat PAC 12 South Champion ASU as 6 point dogs on a neutral field. They beat USC as 2.5 point favorites in South Bend. Clearly they like playing PAC 12 teams.
Stanford was a 6.5 point favorite in Palo Alto over ASU, so comparing both ASU lines, ND is getting a little bit of line value based on that game. However Stanford was only a 3.5 point favorite in LA while ND was -2.5 at home. Assuming 3-4 points for HFA, Stanford would have been a 6.5 to 7.5 point favorite over USC on a neutral field and Notre Dame would have been a pick to +1.
So 14 points is too many, especially with Stanford knowing that win or lose, they have to play ASU the following week to decide the PAC 12 representative in the Rose Bowl. I expect another low scoring, hard fought game similar to last year’s game in South Bend.
Stanford 24, Notre Dame 17

390 New Mexico – Boise State OVER 64 (1 unit)
Shall we go for three in a row? If they keep insisting on lining New Mexico totals around 66, I’ll continue to take a shot on the over.
The New Mexico defense is in shambles. They are now allowing 46.57 ppg in MWC play and have allowed at least 35 points in every MWC game. Boise enters the game as the MWC’s # 2 offense and HC Chris Peterson expects QB Joe Southwick back at the helm.
Similar to last week I don’t believe we can make this a 1.5 unit wager because of the question marks surrounding the New Mexico offense.
The Lobos are averaging 32.57 ppg in MWC play and scored 28 last week against Fresno State without the services of their starting QB & top RB. However they struggled in the first half and really didn’t get things going until Fresno State began substituting liberally in the second half.
The Boise State defense is slightly better statistically than Fresno State and I do not expect Boise’s offense to gain over 800 yards and put up 69 points like the Bulldogs did last week. But they are more than capable of laying half a hundred on this bad New Mexico defense and despite their offensive troubles, the Lobos should be good for a few more TDs this week.
Boise State 55, New Mexico 17

4-team ML parlay +100 (1 unit)
Texas, Washington, Oregon & Utah State (pays +100 at Bookmaker)
OK, I’ve lost my last 3 ML parlays and I said I was done for the season, but I am hoping this is just a wager on Texas as the short favorite to win outright because the other 3 teams are at home and they are all a lot better than their opponents. However Wazzou has kicked my butt the past 2 weeks, so beware.
From what I have seen of Oregon State the past few weeks, even the wounded Ducks should be able to roll them this week in the Civil War. I was contemplating taking the Ducks -21.5 this week, but I am a little concerned about their mindset and Mariota’s health to lay 3+ scores.
UW is just flat out better than Wazzou, and though I am not a big believer in the revenge factor, surely the Huskies have last year’s loss on their minds after blowing an 18 point lead. Sark & the Huskies also need this one to get off the 7 win mark, which was a huge goal of their’s this season. Lastly, UW is tough in Seattle. They should win this one by DD.
Utah State MWC Mountain Division champions? That’s right. If the Aggies defeat Wyoming this week at home they will represent the Mountain Division in the MWC Championship game against Fresno State next week. I also debated laying the 3 TDs in this one, however Wyoming can score and they do need this game to become bowl eligible, so I could see a closer game than expected.

396 Air Force – Colorado State OVER 59.5 (1 unit)
No Kapri Bibbs for CSU, no problem …. or so I hope. The last three games in this series have produced scores of 42-21, 45-21 & 49-27 and I’m not seeing a lot of defense being played today in Fort Collins.
The last option offense to face Colorado State, New Mexico, amassed 527 yards on Nov. 16 against the Rams. The Air Force D is a mess allowing at least 41 points in 6 of 7 MWC games (allowing 44 ppg overall in MWC play).
Up until last week when Colorado State faced Utah State, the MWC’s best defense, the Rams had averaged 44.29 ppg in their last 7 games. Air Force hasn’t been held under 20 points in any MWC game this year.
I can easily see both these teams getting into the 30′s, even without Kapri Bibbs on the field today, Colorado State should have little problem moving the football on a bad Air Force defense.
Colorado State 45, Air Force 31

[Can'tPickAWinner]

Maggiore’s Big 10 Football Picks – YTD: 17-12 (+3.80 units)
Illinois (+3.5) over Northwestern (2 units)
This season has been nothing short of a disaster for Northwestern. The Wildcats started out 4-0 and were ready with a packed house when the Buckeyes came calling in early October. The result was a tough, emotional loss and Northwestern has not recovered. Including the Ohio State loss, Northwestern has dropped 7 straight games to fall out of Bowl contention. In the 6 games following the loss against OSU, the Wildcats have only scored more than 20 points once and are averaging a meager 13.7 points per game. On the other side of this matchup is Illinois. The Illini got off the snide last week breaking a 20 game conference losing streak by getting a win at Purdue. The score in that game was slightly misleading as Illinois had twice as many first downs and nearly 100 more yards of total offense. However, a 62 yard touchdown run for Purdue and 4 Fighting Illini turnovers kept it close and cost us a cover. These just appear to be two teams heading in different directions. Illinois is not a good team, but they are still fighting and have been competitive. Northwestern has been playing teams close, but with Kain Colter doubtful, I think the Illini defense will be able to control the Wildcat offense and squeak out a close home win.

Wisconsin (-24.5) over Penn State (2 units)
For the 2nd week in a row, I am going to lay big points with the Badgers. It cost me last week as Wisconsin only allowed Minnesota 185 total yards, but an early pick 6 was the difference in the point spread. The loss ATS was the first of the season for the Badgers as their record dropped to 9-1-1 against the number. The one thing that didn’t change is Wisconsin is still 6-0 against the spread at home. Penn State comes in on Senior day sporting an 0-4 record ATS on the road. The Nittany Lions have failed to cover those 4 games by an average of 17.25 points per game. On the other hand, Wisky has covered their 6 home games by an average of 8.83 points per contest. I believe this tells us that PSU has been overvalued on the road this season and I think this is the case this week. It is hard to say that a team getting 3 and a half touchdowns is overvalued, but that is what has happened here. Wisconsin’s tailback duo of James White and Melvin Gordon bring the nation’s 8th best rushing attack (297.8 YPG) to the table and they will run through a thin Penn State defense. PSU has given up over 43 points per game in conference road games and I look for that to continue here.

Illinois/Northwestern under 59.5 (1 unit)
Kain Colter is out. Memorial Stadium is a wind tunnel. Northwestern’s last 6 games have gone under the number. There are just a lot of factors that make me think this one is going to be a 24-21 or 28-24 type game. I just don’t see a lot of points here.

Ohio State (-16.5) over Michigan (1 unit)
I hate to lay this many points in a rivalry game of this magnitude, but the difference in these two teams is that staggering. I am not sure the talent difference is that severe, but the coaching difference is. I honestly believe the difference in the offensive coordinators is 7-10 points alone. That is how much better the guys roaming the sidelines in Columbus are. The Ohio State defense has taken heat all season long, but they are finally healthy. OSU linebacker Ryan Shazier is a stud and has been putting up ridiculous numbers. The Buckeyes are 30th nationally in tackles for loss while Michigan is the worst team in the country giving up 9.36 tackles for loss. Yes, the worst in the country! I think the young OSU front has a field day and controls the Wolverine front. The Buckeye offense will do its thing and OSU finishes 12-0.

Alabama Crimson Tide at Auburn Tigers - Open: +11, Move: +10.5, Move: +11

The Iron Bowl. Despite the past four winners going on to be crowned National Champs, this year's version could be the most important in some time. The Tide opened as 10.5-point faves at most outlets and action seems to be split down the middle.

"We opened Alabama -11, but most of the initial action was on the dog so we dropped it down to 10.5," says Peter Childs of Sportsbook.ag. "At 10.5, we booked sharp action on the favorite and moved it back to 11 and that’s our current number. We’ve booked this game pretty even, but I suspect more of our recreational players are going to take the points with Auburn."

Clemson Tigers at South Carolina Gamecocks - Open: -5, Move: -3

Despite being 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings with their bitter in-state rivals, action has come in and backed Clemson trimming the spread all week. The Tigers have been hot recently, however. They've won four-straight games SU and covered the spread in their last three.

"We opened South Carolina -5 and all the early money was on the dog, so we quickly went to 4.5 and eventually 4," Childs says. "We then booked sharp action on Clemson so we basically skipped going to 3.5 and went straight to South Carolina -3. Over 75 percent of the action is on Clemson but since going to 3, we’re seeing quite a bit of money starting to show on South Carolina."

Ohio State Buckeyes at Michigan Wolverines - Open: +12, Move: +16

Since opening, the line has moved towards the favored Buckeyes. Ohio State is still in contention but needs a loss from one of the programs above them. Sill, they need to take care of their own business against the hated Wolverines.

"This line has been creeping further and further to Ohio State, and action has gone with them from 12.5 to 15.5 at about a 3-to-1 ATS clip," says Aron Black of Bet365. "Michigan can play spoiler to Ohio State's BCS aspirations, but they are in tough against a very good Buckeyes team."

Baylor Bears at TCU Horned Frogs - Open: +13, Move: +15

Childs confirms that this matchup will be one of the biggest decisions for his book as Baylor backers have come fast and furious supplying 90 percent of the action. The Bears were throttled by Oklahoma State one week ago, but are a dynamite 8-2 ATS on the season.

"We opened Baylor -13 and all the money so far has been on Baylor," says Childs. "We went to 13.5, then 13.5 -115 and -13.5 -120, before going to that key number of -14. But that didn’t stop the bleeding and we eventually went to 14.5 and just this morning we went to Baylor -15."

Florida State Seminoles at Florida Gators - Open: +27.5, Move: +27.5

The Gators would love to play spoiler to their in-state rival, but are coming off a terrible defeat at the hands of FCS Georgia Southern. The loss is basically the icing on the Gators' awful season, but history is on their side for this annual meeting as they've won seven of the last nine. Despite that, Gator backers have been quiet all week.

"Action doesn’t seem to give the Gators much of a chance with the line going past the key number 28 to 28.5, and has loved the Seminoles by about a 4-to-1 clip ATS," says Black. "With Florida State scoring at will and keeping teams off the scoresheet, the line should stay upwards of 28."

Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Stanford Cardinal - Open: -14, Move: -16.5

The Irish might be one of the most supported programs at betting windows, but that's not the case this week. The Cardinal have bee backed all week and rightly so. They have covered the last three meetings between the two programs.

"We opened Stanford -14 and all the early action was on the favorite. It didn’t take us long to get to 14.5, but that really didn’t stop the money coming in on Stanford, so we went to 15, 15.5, 16 to now we’re dealing Stanford -16.5," said Childs. "I can’t see us going much higher than 16.5 because we feel if we go to 17, wiseguys will hammer Notre Dame at that inflated number and we’d be pretty exposed to getting middle or sided."

Week 14
6 GOY* Colorado State -(15.5) over Air Force
Yes Air Force has beaten Colorado State 7 straight years, but this streak ends this year as this game is going to be one sided. Air Force is getting outgained by 101 yards per game! Colorado State’s potent infantry was emasculated at Utah State. After averaging 615 yards (302 rushing) in their previous three starts, the Rams were limited to 185 yards from scrimmage. But that wasn’t all that surprising. Utah State was allowing only 3.2 yards per rush. Colorado was embarrassed last week against Utah State gaining just 1.1 yards per carry and 38 rush yards for the game in a 12-0 shutout. Rams came from 43.9 ppg in previous 7 tilts, to 0 at Utah St. Quick shot at regrouping here vs a Air Force team that brings nothing to the table, posting a horrid 0-9 ATS mark as a dog from Game Ten out and a 1-5 ATS log on the road in Last Games of the Season. This is a complete mismatch! Colorado is hoping with an impressive win here against Air Force that they will impress bowl scouts and land a bid wit a 7-6 record. Air Force is 6-18 ATS in all lined games over the L2 seasons.

Notre Dame at Stanford: What bettors need to know

Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Stanford Cardinal (-15.5, 49)

Riding the second-longest home winning streak in the nation, No. 10 Stanford hopes to enjoy a successful tuneup before the Pac-12 championship game when Notre Dame pays a visit on Saturday. The Cardinal will face either Arizona or Arizona State in next week's conference title game with a BCS berth on the line. In the meantime, Stanford must contend with a Fighting Irish squad that has won five of its last six games.

Notre Dame never trailed in defeating Brigham Young 23-13 last Saturday, marking the first wire-to-wire win for the Irish since Week 1 against Temple. The Cardinal have an impressive resume that includes wins over Arizona State, Washington, UCLA, Oregon State and Oregon, in addition to last week's 50-point trouncing of arch rival California - the program's 15th straight home victory. "You cannot play finesse football against Stanford," said Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly. "You've got to play physical football against Stanford if you have a chance to win against them."

TV: 7 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Stanford -14

ABOUT NOTRE DAME (8-3): Stanford has one of the nation's top rushing defenses, but Notre Dame is coming off a 235-yard rushing performance highlighted by Cam McDaniel's career-high 117. Last week's win against BYU was played in temperatures in the 20s with swirling winds and intermittent snow, but Irish quarterback Tommy Rees still threw for 235 yards and a touchdown in his final home game. The victory over the Cougars marked the fifth time this season that the Irish have allowed 13 points or fewer.

ABOUT STANFORD (9-2): Cardinal quarterback Kevin Hogan has yet to complete 20 passes in a game this season, but he is 14-2 as a starter for his career, including an 8-0 mark against ranked opponents. Of course, it helps to have a weapon like Ty Montgomery, who matched the school record with five touchdowns in last week's win against Cal. "It's awesome," Hogan said, "just getting him the ball and he makes me look good."

TRENDS:

* Under is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.
* Fighting Irish are 5-2 ATS in their last seven meetings in Stanford.
* Cardinal are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 non-conference games.
* Under is 10-3-1 in Fighting Irish last 14 road games.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. The Fighting Irish lead the all-time series 18-9, although Stanford had won three in a row before an overtime defeat at Notre Dame last year.

2. The right side of the Cardinal's offensive line, RT Cameron Fleming and RG Kevin Danser, has combined for 53 consecutive starts.

3. Stanford leads the nation in kickoff returns, averaging 27.1 yards per return behind the electrifying play of Montgomery (31.2 yards per return, two TDs).

River City Sharps

Cleveland State has played a really good schedule this year and was really competitive in their loss to Kentucky. This seems to be a good spot, after the holiday, for a letdown, so we will take a hard look at Ball State in this game. The Cardinals haver also played a good schedule and have a 1 point loss to Butler earlier in the season. Ball State has only shot the ball over 50% once this season, but fortunately, the Vikings aren't the best rebounding team, which will give Ball State the shot for some second chance points. Interesting stat here...Cleveland State is 2-9 ATS when playing only their 2nd game in a week over the last 2 seasons. Good enough for the Sharps to take a shot here with the doggie. The Sharps say...
