MARCO D'ANGELO CFB Side - Friday, Jan 4 2013 8:00PM
3* Oklahoma +3 (-110) overTexas A&M triple-dime bet

Analysis:
PLAY: OKLAHOMA
RATING: TRIPLE DIME PLAY


Both teams enter tonight's contest at 10-2 and both won their last 5 games in a row. Texas A&M has Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel at QB and that is where we will start this discussion. It has been a long standing betting angle to fade the Heisman trophy winner as these players and their team has been a long term winning proposition to fade. Generally these teams are over priced, the player that won the Heisman has faced many distractions from winning the trophy and the opposing team is just plain fired up to stop the Heisman winner. I must point out that this angle has lost the last 3 years but there was something different about 2 of the last 3. Three years ago and 2 years ago the Heisman winner played on the National Championship team. I point that out because the premise of this angle is that the Heisman Winner might not be totally focused. Well when you are playing for a National Championship you are going to be focused. Last year's Heisman saw RGIII lead the Baylor Bears to a win and cover. However it must be noted that Baylor was not the right side as Washington who was covering the game lost in the final minute when Baylor broke one just trying to run out the clock which gave Baylor the late cover. I also look at Landry Jones and I have to figure he wants to upstage this Freshman who won the Heisman. I look at the success Texas A&M enjoyed this year and there are a few things that I think helped them this year. First they moved to the SEC which most thought would be rough facing those SEC defenses but the fact is playing A&M for the first time this year actually helped this A&M offense as SEC teams were not use to this wide open style of football as that is not the way most offenses play in the SEC. Also how many QB's do you see in the SEC that are such a dual threat as Johnny Manziel. The SEC doesn't have QB's like that where as the Big 12 is loaded with them. Oklahoma saw this kind of offense almost every week so they will be much better prepared to stop it. Speaking of stopping people Texas A&M really wasn't good defensively as they gave up 300 or more yards passing to 4 opponents. Oklahoma gave up 300 yards passing just once this year and that was against WVU. Texas A&M saw Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana Tech and Alabama all pass for over 300 yards against them. Texas A&M owns one signature win this year as they beat Alabama on the road. But let's not forget that win over Alabama came the week after Alabama played their big game against LSU which was a physical war. Alabama was beat up after the LSU game and was ripe fo r a let down. When Texas A&M played the other 2 good teams in the Conference they lost to Florida and to LSU. Oklahoma had losses against Kansas St and Notre Dame who are 2 Top 5 teams. Oklahoma did beat Texas by 42, beat a Baylor team who rolled UCLA by 23 in their Bowl Game. They also beat Oklahoma St in a Shootout 51-48 and we just saw Oklahoma St win their Bowl game by 44 points. Fact is 7 of Oklahoma's 10 wins were against Bowl Teams where as Texas A&M only had 4 wins vs Bowl teams. Honestly I feel the wrong team is favored here and it's all because of Johnny Manziel and the hype that surrounds him. Landry Jones will be playing with a chip on his shoulder tonight as he doesn't want the freshman to show him up tonight. One last piece to this puzzle that also favors Oklahoma. I already expect Johnny Manziel to be a little off tonight with the Heisman jinx but it must be noted that his offensive coordinator has moved on taking the head coaching job at Texas Tech. This all adds up to a Big Win for Oklahoma as I have them winning this game 43-31.

4 Unit Play. #834 Take St. Peter's -4.5 over Manhattan (7 pm)

I have always been a big fan of the MAAC Conference and tonight features two teams that are not expected to challenge for the top spot. We will side with the better team who is also playing at home and lay the small wood. Peacocks will have revenge on their minds since they were blown out by the Jaspers in the last meeting. Manhattan scores just over 56 points per game and that will not get the job done especially on the road. Manhattan is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 MAAC games. St. Peter's is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Friday games.

Best of Luck - Doc's Sports

Ben Burns' *10* COTTON BOWL MAIN EVENT! (WON BY 20+ IN 2012!) *4-0 YTD w/ ME's + Off 4-0 Sweep!*
I'm playing on OKLAHOMA. The Aggies had a great year as come in as the favorite. I'm not convinced that they're the better team though. The Aggies did win at Alabama and obviously deserve credit for that victory. They really didn't win that many other big games though. Their other SEC victories came against Arkansa, Ole Miss, Auburn, Miss State and Missouri. Those five teams went a combined 11-29 in SEC action, none finishing above .500. When matched up against other top tier SEC teams Florida and LSU, a pair of teams which both lost their bowl games, the Aggies were defeated. Arguably their hardest non-conf. game came against LA Tech and they only eked out a 2-point win in that one. While they didn't beat Alabama the way that the Aggies did, Oklahoma did beat the likes of TCU, Oklahoma State, Texas, Baylor, Texas Tech and West Virginia. None of those were as big as the Bama win but they're all arguably at least as impressive, if not more, than any of the Aggies' other wins. The Aggies may have a Heiman leader at QB. However, the Sooners have the career Big 12 leader in passing yards. Indeed, Jones is the first FBS quarterback ever to throw for at least 3,000 yards and 26 touchdowns in four seasons. The Sooners are 5-2 ATS the last seven times that they played with two or more week's worth of rest. Having hammered the Aggies by a 41-25 margin last season and going 8-1 the last nine meetings against them, the Sooners come in full of confidence. I expect them to step up and get it done. *10
