UL Lafayette at Western Kentucky: What bettors need to know

UL Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns at Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (-4.5, 62.5)

The Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns may not be nationally ranked, but their high-powered offense is. The Ragin' Cajuns look to build on their three-game winning streak Tuesday night as they visit the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers in a pivotal Sun Belt Conference showdown. Louisiana-Lafayette is coming off a 48-24 drubbing of Texas State 10 days ago, while Western Kentucky is also on a high following a 31-10 victory over host Louisiana-Monroe back on Oct. 3.

Fans should expect plenty of fireworks in this one, with the teams averaging a combined 70 points per game. The Ragin' Cajuns are led by junior quarterback Terrance Broadway, who has thrown for 10 touchdowns over the opening five games while completing nearly two-thirds of his passes. The Hilltoppers are led by running back Antonio Andrews, who ranks second in the nation with 882 rushing yards and is tied for third with nine touchdowns on the ground.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN2

LINE: The Hilltoppers opened as four-point favorites, with the line rising slightly to -4.5. The over/under has held steady at 62.5.

WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the high-60s with a 32 percent chance of showers or thunderstorms. Wind will blow diagonally out of the south at 3 mph.

ABOUT LOUISIANA-LAFAYETTE (3-2, 1-0 Sun Belt Conference): Broadway has had a tough act to follow after Blaine Gautier left following the 2012 season - but the hard-throwing QB is rewriting school record books on a weekly basis. He racked up 335 passing yards in the Oct. 5 win over Texas State, his sixth career 300-yard performance. That moved him past Gautier and former NFLer Jake Delhomme for the most 300-yard games in a Ragin' Cajuns uniform. Standout wide receiver Jamal Robinson has caught six of Broadway's 10 TD passes this season.

ABOUT WESTERN KENTUCKY (4-2, 1-1): The Hilltoppers know all about Broadway's credentials - he lit them up for 258 passing yards and another 145 on the ground in last year's 31-27 Louisiana-Lafayette victory. "They have a quarterback who can throw it down the field and then when you cover everybody, he'll take off and run," head coach Bobby Petrino told the Louisville Courier-Journal. "That's probably the biggest challenge. he makes plays with his legs." Andrews isn't bad himself; the senior star has 550 rushing yards and eight touchdowns over his past three games.

TRENDS:

* Under is 5-0 in Western Kentucky's last five games following a SU win of 20 or more points.
* Over is 4-1-1 in Louisiana-Lafayette's last six conference games.
* Hilltoppers are 8-1 in their last nine October games.
* Ragin' Cajuns are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games against teams with winning records.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. Andrews had 342 yards and three touchdowns in two games against the Ragin' Cajuns in 2012.

2. The teams have split their last four meetings, with each club winning once at home and once on the road.

3. Louisiana-Lafayette has outscored opponents 153-61 during its winning streak.

GamingToday’s Consensus Picks October 15, 2013 3:01 AM by GT Staff

Baseball National League Championship

912 Los Angeles Dodgers: The boys in blue got the much needed win and a great clutch pitching performance, as of this time they have not decided who they will send to the mound for the game today but whoever it may be you can believe that he will be hyped for the start as well as the Dodgers who look to even the series 2-2 with the win.

911 St. Louis Cardinals/ 922 Los Angeles Dodgers UNDER THE TOTAL: You can post a total of 5 on these games and probably be safe, in the three games that they have played these two teams are averaging 3 runs total a game.

Baseball American League Championship

913 Boston Red Sox +145: The Red Sox would like nothing better than to beat Verlander and take a 2-1 lead in this series, they came alive late the other day and the momentum will be on their side.

College Football

301 UL - Lafayette +4½: Just a monster game for both teams in this ESPN2 Sun Belt match, we will side with the Ragin’ Cajuns who have won three straight games since losing their opening two games against the SEC and the Big 12, they have a very nice 20-8 ATS road record.

NHL Hockey

24 Phoenix Coyotes -140: The Senators skate into Phoenix with a four game losing streak while the Coyotes sit at home with a four game winning streak, look for both streaks to continue.

Two for Tuesday October 15, 2013 3:00 AM by GT Staff


2 for Tuesday by Richard Saber


1) LA Lafayette +4 at Western Kentucky


The host Hilltoppers have won and covered three straight games. Plus they are in a revenge situation following last year’s 31-27 loss in Lafayette. WESTERN KENTUCKY.


2) LA Lafayette at W. Kentucky (63)


The only two teams that have really scored on Western were Kentucky in Game 1 with 35 and Tennessee posting 52 in Week 2. Both SEC teams. Lafayette is not in that category. UNDER 63.


Richard Saber: Last week 1-1 ATS; 2013 record: 42-35.


2 for Tuesday by Mark Mayer


1) Buffalo at NY Islanders (NHL)


Buffalo off to a horrible start and probably wondering if firing Lindy Ruff was the right move. Meanwhile, the young Islanders are playing solid hockey behind superstar Taveres. NY ISLANDERS.


2) Montreal at Winnipeg (NHL)


Canadiens 2-1 as they complete their 4-game “road trip from hell” in Canada. Off consecutive 4-1 wins, the Habs hit Winnipeg off two full days. A win would make the trip home fine. MONTREAL.


Mark Mayer: Last week 1-1 ATS; 2013 record: 49-31

MLB
St. Louis (Lynn) at LAD (Nolasco) (-115) 8:00 ET TBS
4* St. Louis (+105)
5* OVER (7-)

After three games, a total of 9 runs have been scored between these two teams. Look for bats to break out tonight in this pitching matchup, unless history prevails. In a pair of starts against St. Louis this year, Nolasco went 2-0 with a 0.75 ERA. The lone outing for Lynn vs. LAD saw him allow just 2hits in 6 IP of 7-0 win against the Dodgers. But the other numbers for these starters do not promote nearly as much confidence. In 12 starts after being acquired from Florida, Nolasco went 8-1 with a 2.07 ERA. But Nolasco crashed down the stretch with a 12.75 ERA in those three outings. In 27 starts, Lynn had a 4.07 ERA. But that declined to 5.15 on the road where St. Louis won just 7/17 of his starts. Lynn has struggled in post-season play going 0-2 with a 6.94 ERA in three starts. Nonetheless, must offer a small opinion on a resilient St. Louis team that has gone 46-21/loss. The Cards also play far better ball down the stretch, as they enter today on runs of 33-16 and 21-8. When LAD was not in their 42-8 zone, they were going 55-65 including 24-23 and 5-7 as they enter todays play. Still, the best play in this game might be the OVER.
