Utah State Aggies vs. BYU Cougars
ESPN’s Friday night college football telecast once again takes us to Provo, UT where the BYU Cougars will look to build off of last week’s come-from-behind home win and cover when it takes on the in-state rival Utah State Aggies; kick-off from LaVell Edwards Stadium is set for 8:00 ET.
Utah State caught the attention of the college football betting world back in Week 1 when it nearly upset the Auburn Tigers at Jordan-Hare Stadium as hefty 24-point underdogs. Though it just came up short, 42-38, head coach Gary Andersen’s squad easily cashed its backers tickets. It then went on to plaster Weber State 54-17 to secure its first win and second pointspread cover of the season, but after its bye week, Utah State fell in overtime at home to Colorado State on Homecoming 35-34 as near two TD favorites. The defeat dropped the Aggies to 1-4 ATS their L/5 as favorites, but they’ll partake in their annual rivalry with BYU a lucrative 14-5-1 ATS the L/20 times they went off the board as underdogs.
Last week’s 24-17 home win and cover as short 1.5-point favorites over UCF has seen the BYU Cougars alternate pointspread wins in each of their first four games played to start the 2011 season. Though they were dominated by the Knights in yardage gained, 399-260, head coach Bronco Mendenhall’s kids never relented winning the turnover battle 3:1 a week after turning the ball over a whopping seven times in their embarrassing “Holy War” defeat to the Utah Utes. In doing so, BYU evened its current record to 2-2 both SU & ATS on the year. Heading into this one, the hosts own a 5-2 ATS tally their L/7 match-ups when favored.
Utah State snapped a 10-game losing streak in its rivalry with BYU last season when it dominated at home en route to the 31-16 outright win and cover as four-point underdogs. The SU win moved the home team to 6-1-1 ATS in these teams L/8 overall confrontations. The Aggies have covered each of their L/4 road games, but BYU is a perfect 6-0 ATS its L/6 when playing off a SU win. The ‘under’ has cashed in each of the L/4 head-to-head meetings.
PICK: BYU/UTAH STATE UNDER

WEST CAPPER
(directly from the West Capper email)

• DETROIT TIGERS (95-67) vs NEW YORK YANKEES (97-65)

The Regular Season matchup was a close 4-3 in favor of the Tigers, and the Yankees are currently listed as a -160 favorite to win the series. The Yankees have lost four in a row and will reply heavily on ace CC Sabathia and a three-man rotation this series. They have the worst pitching staff of any team in the AL Playoffs, but they do have the constant lock down closer in Mariano Rivera. The Yankees obviously have their big bats that led the major leagues in home runs this year with 222, and Jeter seems to be heating up at the right time.

The Tigers have the best pitcher in the entire playoffs, ace Justin Verlander. Doug Fister has been on-fire down the stretch, and Scherzer has some premium stuff. They also have a lockdown closer in Jose Valverde who has converted all 49 saves this year. Their lineup lacked the punch of the Yankees, but Miguel Cabrera and Victor Martinez are as good a 1-2 combo as anybody in baseball. Magglio Ordonez enters the playoffs riding an 18-game hitting streak.

The Tigers beat the Yankees in four games in the 2006 ALDS, and I believe the Tigers will win this series. Verlander is the X factor, and I don't think he loses this entire series. CC is a great pitcher but he isn't even in the same class as Justin Verlander. The Tigers will win this series, so the play is 2** Detroit Tigers (+120) to win this series.

• TAMPA BAY RAYS (91-71) vs TEXAS RANGERS (96-66)

Texas has a deep starting rotation amd arguably the best offense in baseball. They also play excellent baseball at home and have won 14 of their last 16 games. To me, Texas has everything you need to make a run to the World Series and win the AL.
The Rays have one of the best pitching staff in this entire postseason. Shields and Price and Hellickson are the headliners, but rookie Matt Moore is the X factor. He has premium top-line stuff and is capable of shutting down any offense. The Rays offense has been prone to long offensive struggles this season, but has some solid right handed hitters in Longoria and Upton to setup nicely against the lefties CJ Wilson and Holland of the Rangers.

The Rangers are playing too good of baseball right now, although I see this being one of the tighest series matchup in the playoffs. The Rays pitch, pitch, and pitch some more, and their offense is capable of breaking out at anytime. I like the Rangers to win a tight series, but -170 is too much juice to lay on the Rangers. The play is a PASS.

• ST. LOUIS CARDINALS (90-72) vs PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES (102-60)

The Phillies are setup for postseason glory, as their pitching staff is the best in the playoffs. Halladay, Lee, Hamels, Worley and Oswalt is as tough as you will find. Their offense is very streaky, but the addition of Huntr Pence really gives Ryan Howard some help at the top. Chase Utley missed most of the year and is just now returning to 100%, but he can never be counted out either.

The Cardinals won the wildcard by winning 23 of their last 31 games. Outside of Carpenter and Garcia, their pitching is a little thin. The Cardinals lineup is one of the most explosive in baseball, with Pujols, Holliday and Berkman being very dangerous.

The Cardinals won 6 of the 9 games played during the regular season, but their rotation doesn't setup nicely to win this series. Ace Carpenter can only throw once and you can't bet against Halladay and Cliff Lee in the postseason. -215 is too high of juice though, so the play is a PASS. I do like the Phillies to win this series fairly easily.

• ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS (94-68) vs MILWAUKEE BREWERS (96-66)

This should be a great series. The Diamondbacks went from worst to first this season, and a lot of that is because the 1-2 combo of Kennedy and Hudson. Their lineup is very right handed heavy, so they might struggle against the RHP of Gallardo, Marcum, and Greinke.

Milwaukee getting home-field advantage will be a key to this series. The Brewers are a major league best 57-24 at home while being below .500 on the road. Their lineup is very strong and led by Braun, Fielder, Hart, and Weeks.

I really like the Brewers this post-season and think they have a shot to knock off the Phillies in the NLCS. They will lose Fielder in the off-season, so this could be the last chance Milwaukee has at a championship in a while. I like the Brewers at -170, so while it's a lot of juice, I will be playing the Brewers (-170) to win the series for 2 units.
