Big Ten rivals collide in a very important game for the conference in Happy Valley Saturday afternoon. The 12th-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes visit the No. 10 Penn State Nittany Lions – a contest that, while it is crucial to the two teams involved, means a lot more to a program watching from home.
Oddsmakers have set the Nittany Lions as 3.5-point home favorites for Week 10's tilt. Penn State won last season's meeting 13-6 at OSU, covering as 1.5-point road chalk. These teams have split their last four meetings straight up and against the spread. However, the home teams is 9-2 ATS in the last 11 games in this series.
The Iowa Hawkeyes will be watching this conference clash closely. For them, the door to the BCS Championship would swing open a touch if the Nittany Lions are able to knock off the Buckeyes. For Ohio State, losing this weekend would drop them out of the running for a high-profile BCS bowl game.
The Buckeyes have punished their l... -
On Monday night, the Philadelphia Phillies (102-74, +$975) picked up a huge 8-6 home victory to keep their season alive for at least one more game. Now, they've got to hit the road once again to Yankee Stadium, where they must find a way to pick up two MLB betting wins against the New York Yankees (113-63, +$1,602) to successfully defend their World Series title.
The win didn't come easily, though. The champs held an 8-2 lead heading into the final two innings of play of Game 5 before manager Charlie Manuel elected to let his starting pitcher, LHP Cliff Lee try to throw another frame. Lee conceded three runs without recording an out in that inning, and the Philadelphia bullpen allowed another run in the ninth before RHP Ryan Madson found a way to shut the door for his first save of this series.
The oddsmakers have lined the defending champs at -205 to close out this series and clinch the title tonight. The over/under has been set at 9 over -115. Bookmak... -
If there wasn't already enough hostility between the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles, these NFC East rivals will battle for the top spot in the division on Sunday Night Football in Week 9.
Oddsmakers have set the Eagles as 3-point home favorites for this primetime showdown. Philadelphia has bragging rights in the NFC East after knocking off the Cowboys 44-6 in their most recent matchup last December. That one-sided win officially spoiled Dallas' playoff chances and started the fire under the Eagles, burning all the way to the NFC Championship game.
Philadelphia may have found another spark in last week's dominant performance against the New York Giants. The Eagles slapped around their divisional foes for a 40-17 victory as 3-point home underdogs. Quarterback Donovan McNabb exploited the Giants' shaky secondary, passing for 240 yards and three touchdowns.
McNabb is inching closer to 100 percent health since suffering broken ribs a f... -
Traditional rivals with a lot of respect for each other get it on in South Bend, IN on Saturday afternoon where the Navy Midshipmen (6-3, 5-4 ATS) will crack skulls with the #21 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (6-2, 2-6 ATS). Last season, the Irish knocked off the Middies 27-21 in Baltimore, but the last time that these two teams squared off in front of the watchful eyes of Touchdown Jesus, the Midshipmen ended a 43-game winning streak by the Irish in this series with a 46-44 overtime victory.
The oddsmakers have lined the hosts at -11 on Saturday afternoon, with the college football betting 'total' coming in at 55.5.
As always, you can expect the Naval Academy to run the ball, run the ball, and run the ball some more on Saturday. QB Ricky Dobbs has only thrown 66 passes in nine games this season, but he does lead the Midshipmen in carries (170) and touchdowns (16). Seven different players have at least 100 rushing yards for Navy, while both Dobbs and RB Vince Murray a... -
Monday Night Football betting action heads to the Mile High City for a crucial AFC tilt between the Denver Broncos (6-1, 6-1 ATS) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2, 2-5 ATS). The winner of this game will gain a slight advantage on one of the top-two seeds in the AFC, which would assure a bye week in the first round of the playoffs.
Should the Steelers lose, they will either fall into a three-way tie for first place in the AFC North, or a game behind Cincinnati depending upon the outcome of the Ravens/Bengals game on Sunday. The Broncos could ultimately only be a game ahead of San Diego by the time this weekend is over.
Bookmaker sportsbook currently has the Steelers listed as 3-point road favorites with a game ‘total’ of 39.5 for tonight’s MNF clash.
Pittsburgh is coming off of its bye week and has had two weeks to prepare for this battle in Denver. Since losing to the Bengals in Week 3, the Steelers have scored at least 27 points in four... -
The top two teams in the SEC West collide this weekend when the No. 3 Alabama Crimson Tide host the No. 9 Louisiana State Tigers at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Week 10 of the college football season.
Oddsmakers have set the Crimson Tide as 9-point home favorites. Alabama took the most recent meeting between these rivals, 27-21, in overtime at LSU last season. That victory snapped a five-game winning streak by the Tigers, who are 3-2-1 ATS versus the Tide since 2003.
There is still a lot of bad blood on the sidelines when it comes to Alabama head coach Nick Saban and the LSU program. Saban left the program for the NFL back in 2005, and after two unsuccessful campaigns with the Miami Dolphins returned to the college ranks to not only coach within the SEC, but with the Crimson Tide – the Tigers' main competition in the SEC West.
The animosity towards Saban has grown over the last two seasons. He's officially coached the Crimson Tide into the tea... -
Philadelphia is known as the City of Brotherly Love, but with the way the New York Yankees have settled in and made themselves welcome at Citizens Bank Park the Philadelphia Phillies wish their home was a little more hostile.
New York took at a 7-4 win in Game 4 on Sunday night, giving the Bronx Bombers their second road win of the series, a 3-1 series lead, and a shot at their first World Series title since winning three straight from 1998 to 2000. Oddsmakers have priced the Yankees as +132 road underdogs for Game 5 while the hometown Phillies are listed as -142 favorites.
New York will send right-handed starter A.J. Burnett to the hill Monday. He's coming off his most impressive start of the postseason in Game 2 of the World Series. Burnett pitched seven innings, allowing just one earned run on four hits and striking out nine batters.
That effort improved Burnett's postseason record to 1-0 with a 3.55 ERA in four appearances. In Game 2,... -
A trip to the Rose Bowl will likely be at stake when the Southern California Trojans head to Eugene to face the Oregon Ducks in a Pac-10 battle between one-loss conference foes.
Oddsmakers have tagged the Ducks as 3-point home underdogs for Saturday's contest. The Trojans have won three of the last four meetings with Oregon, including last year's 44-10 beating at Los Angeles Coliseum.
The Ducks have been on a mission to repair their season since an opening-week loss to the Boise State Broncos which ended in an ugly confrontation involving running back LeGarrette Blount, who struck a BSU player and was suspended for the season. Since that incident, Oregon has had a dark cloud over the program.
Like in most sports, winning cures everything. And nothing would get the Ducks back into BCS talks like a win over the Trojans. Since Week 1, Oregon has rolled, winning six straight games while covering the spread in five of those contests. The Duc... -
College football betting heads to Raymond James Stadium, where Big East bragging rights will be on the line Friday night. The West Virginia Mountaineers (6-1, 2-4 ATS) will get it on with the South Florida Bulls (5-2, 3-3 ATS). South Florida badly needs a victory to stay alive in the Big East race, while the Mountaineers still control their own destiny in the chase for the Orange Bowl.
The Mountaineers had a lot of things going against them at home on Saturday afternoon, as they had to deal with an emotionally charged Connecticut team. Still, RB Noel Devine had all of the answers for a good UConn defense. He rushed for 178 yards and a touchdown, showing flashes of his predecessor, Steve Slaton.
HC Bill Stewart had to be concerned with the play of his defense, which gave up 501 yards of offense to the Huskies. It was an unusually bad game for a 'D' which still ranks ninth in the country against the run (86.3 yards per game) and 36th in total defense (322... -
The eighth week of the NFL betting season will wrap up on Monday night in the Big Easy, where the New Orleans Saints (6-0, 6-0 ATS) will look to take a commanding three-game lead in the NFC South with a victory over the Atlanta Falcons (4-2, 4-2 ATS). Should the Saints win this game, they'll already be counting down their magic number towards the playoffs, while the Falcons are not only trying to keep up in their own division, but for one of the NFC Wild Card positions as well.
Atlanta had a rough go of it in Dallas last weekend. QB Matt Ryan had one of the more difficult games of his young career, as he went 19/35 for 198 yards with two touchdowns, two interceptions, and a pair of fumbles. The rushing game ultimately ended up with 124 yards, but it never really asserted itself. The secondary was a real problem on the day, as Dallas QB Tony Romo torched the unit for 311 yards and three scores. There was no answer for WR Miles Austen, who went nuts for the second stra... -
Green Bay Packers fans have been known for giving opposing teams a cheeky send off when leaving Lambeau Field. But an army of bare bottoms is no match for what the city of Green Bay has in store for former quarterback and current Minnesota Vikings signal caller Brett Favre when he returns to face the Packers on Sunday afternoon.
Plans are in motion for a four-day celebration, or perhaps defamation, of the return of No. 4. Everything from changing the name of Minnesota Avenue to Aaron Rodgers Drive to serving up a special waffle and fries brunch will have the small Wisconsin town boiling over before the whistle blows.
Oddsmakers have priced Favre and the Vikings as 3-point underdogs for Sunday's highly-anticipated NFC North matchup. Minnesota won the first meeting between these rivals, 30-23, at home in Week 4. Favre passed for 271 yards (24-for-32) and three touchdowns in that game and was obviously emotional as former teammates congratulated the vete... -
This season's World Series is shaping up to be a Fall Classic to remember. Two of the game’s biggest and boldest clash for baseball's top spot when the American League champs, the New York Yankees, face the National League pennant winners and defending World Series champions, the Philadelphia Phillies.
Game 1 of the 2009 World Series begins Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium. Oddsmakers have set the baseball betting odds, pricing New York as a -161 home favorite while Philadelphia is a live ‘dog at +151. These teams met in a three-game series in the Bronx back in May, where the Phillies took two of three matchups and outscored the Yankees 15-11 over the weekend set.
At the time of that three-game series, Philadelphia's Game 1 starter, Cliff Lee, was struggling with the Cleveland Indians. But since joining the Phillies at the trade deadline, the former Cy Young winner has returned to his 2008 form.
Lee has been even better in the postseas... -
On Wednesday night, the entire baseball betting world will be tuned to Fox for coverage of the 2009 World Series. The Philadelphia Phillies (100-71, +$908) will invade Yankee Stadium looking to steal Game 1 of the Fall Classic from the New York Yankees (110-61, +$1,677).
This is familiar territory for the Phillies, who entered last season's World Series as decided underdogs against the Tampa Bay Rays. They took Game 1 of that series en route to their first championship since 1980. Manager Charlie Manuel will hope to repeat that script yet again starting with the first game of the Fall Classic tonight.
Bookmaker.com customers will be able to dig into all of the great MLB gambling action until the first pitch is thrown just before 8:00 ET.
After three successful starts in the playoffs, LHP Cliff Lee will get the ball for Game 1 of the World Series. Lee has looked like anything but a guy throwing in his first ever postseason this year. He ha... -
The World Series will be an East Coast affair with the New York Yankees and defending-champion Philadelphia Phillies colliding in the Fall Classic. However, before taking at look at what will happen when the NL's best meets the top team in the AL, take a look at how those teams won their respective pennants.
In the National League, the Phillies became the first team to return to the World Series in back-to-back years since the 2001 New York Yankees by defeating the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-1 in the NLCS. The series started on the left side of the country, where most were pulling for a Dodgers-Yankees World Series – which would pit L.A. manager Joe Torre against his former club.
Philadelphia took Game 1 in Los Angeles, holding off a late-inning push from the Dodgers for an 8-6 victory. Starter and last year's postseason hero, Cole Hamels, was on the mound for just over five innings, allowing four earned runs but still earning the win. Carlos Ruiz and Raul I... -
NBC's Sunday Night Football betting battle pits a pair of high-flying squads from the NFC against one another. Bookmaker.com clients will love to get down and dirty with all of the great NFL wagering action when the Arizona Cardinals (3-2, 3-2 ATS) aim for their third straight victory when they invade the Meadowlands to clash with the New York Giants (5-1, 4-1-1 ATS); kick-off is slated for 8:20 ET.
For awhile there, NFL gamblers had to wonder whether or not the Cardinals were ever going to let the Seahawks touch the football. Arizona jumped out to a 14-0 lead before QB Matt Hasselbeck ever got his hands on the pigskin. The Cards never looked back in their 27-3 triumph. QB Kurt Warner just continued to pick the Seattle defense apart like it was nobody's business. He finished the day 32/41 for 276 yards with two scores and an INT. WR Larry Fitzgerald was his favorite target, as the U-Pitt product finished the day with 13 catches for 100 yards and a TD.

Quarterback has always been the most important position on the field, and a look at the top two pivots in the league will lead you to this year's favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV. Peyton Manning and Drew Brees have their teams rolling at 5-0 heading into Week 7 and priced at +375 to win the 2009 championship.
Indianapolis Colts (+375)
It all starts with Manning. In a season where people doubted the weapons around the Colts’ MVP quarterback, Manning has proved he is the best player in the NFL by making everyone around him better. Indianapolis has the top-ranked passing attack, averaging 326 yards through the air, and is scoring more than 27 points per game. The Colts’ defense has also been a surprise this year, sitting seventh in the league in total yards against and boasting the second fewest points allowed heading into the weekend.
New Orleans Saints (+375)
Everyone expected Brees and the Saints’ passing attack to put up b... -
On Tuesday night, the New York Yankees (109-60, +$1,678) put together a dominating performance in their 10-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (101-68, +$2,300). The victory gave the Bronx Bombers a three games to one lead in this best-of-seven baseball betting series, and moved them to within one game of the World Series.
You can find the AL West champions lined at -120 to survive and force a Game 6 in this series back in the Bronx. The MLB baseball 'total' is lined at 8.5 over -115. Bookmaker Sportsbook will have all of the MLB gambling action you care to sink your teeth into until the first pitch is thrown at 8:00 ET.
They've pitched well, they've played timely defense, and they're tearing the cover off the baseball, and as a result, the Yanks look poised to make their triumphant return to the Fall Classic for the first time since 2003. Two nights ago, everything went New York's way in its Game 4 victory. LHP CC Sabathia threw eight prac... -
The first BCS rankings hit the presses this past weekend, and to no one's surprise the Florida Gators sit atop the standings which will help determine the two teams that will play for college football's biggest prize. Here's a look at the best bets to make this season's Bowl Championship Series final.
Florida Gators
All roads to the BCS title go through Gainesville. Florida doesn't have the offensive weapons like last year's title team. Quarterback Tim Tebow is still a little woozy after suffering a concussion a few weeks back and the Gators’ passing game has struggled to find a go-to receiver. Thankfully for coach Urban Meyer, he returned his championship defense, which ranks second in the country and is giving up only 8.7 points per game. If anyone is going to beat the champs they will have to beat the UF defense to do it.
Alabama Crimson Tide
The SEC Championship could end up being tagged as the real BCS title game. Alab... -
The Philadelphia Phillies have the Los Angeles Dodgers on the ropes after taking a 3-1 series lead with a 5-4 come-from-behind victory in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series on Monday night.
Now, thanks to the 2-3-2 series format, the Phillies have an opportunity to land the knockout punch and return to the World Series for the second consecutive year at home at Citizens Bank Park on Wednesday night.
Game 4's tightly-contested battle came on the heels of an 11-0 blowout win by Philadelphia in Game 3 of the NLDS. Monday night, the Dodgers came back from two runs down early in the ballgame to take a 4-3 lead into the later innings. Los Angeles weathered the pressing Phillies until the final inning when shortstop and leadoff man Jimmie Rollins knocked a two-run double off L.A. closer Jonathan Broxton. Up until that hit, Rollins was just 3-for-18 for the series but finished the night with two hits and two RBI in five at-bats.

NLCS betting continues on Wednesday night for what could be the close-out game of the series for the defending champions. Bookmaker Sportsbook customers will get another crack at an MLB gambling contest between the Los Angeles Dodgers (99-70, +$1,234) and the Philadelphia Phillies (99-71, +$808).
On Monday night, the Phils took a 3-1 series lead in this best-of-seven NLCS betting series when SS Jimmy Rollins cranked a two-run double with two down in the bottom of the ninth to turn a 4-3 deficit into a 5-4 victory. Now, the NL East winners have the NL West winners on the ropes, needing three wins in the next four days to reach the Fall Classic.
Manager Joe Torre had plenty of decisions to make about his pitching staff for the remainder of this series. Instead of going with the logical selection, LHP Clayton Kershaw, he has elected to turn the ball over to his hottest arm in RHP Vicente Padilla. In Game 2 of this series, Padilla was LA's starter in a fant... -
The American League Championship Series swings to the opposite coast for Games 3 and 4. And not a moment too soon for the Los Angeles Angels, who trail the New York Yankees 2-0 in the ALCS after a heartbreaking extra-innings loss in Game 2 Saturday night.
Oddsmakers have priced Los Angeles as a -133 home favorite for Game 3 Monday. New York is set at +123.
The Angels had plenty of chances to head home with the series locked at one game apiece. However, they made costly mistakes that led to a 4-3 Yankees win. Los Angeles committed two errors to New York's three in the rain and cold of Yankee Stadium, but a throwing error in the 13th sealed the team's fate and dug the Halos a big hole to climb out of with the series heading out west.
Los Angeles has committed five total errors in the first two games of the ALCS. It made three in Game 1, giving up two unearned runs in the process. The two errors on Saturday led to one unearned score which ju... -
The American League Championship Series kicks off tonight from the Bronx, where two of the best money teams in baseball get it on for the right to go to the Fall Classic. The American League West champions, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (100-65, +$2,500) will look to unseat the American League East champions, the New York Yankees (106-59, +$1,478).
The Yankees have been made -170 favorites on Friday night, while the over/under has been set at 8.5 over -115. Bookmaker.com will have all of the action covered in this critical Game 1 of the ALCS under the first pitch is thrown around 7:55 ET.
The Halos advanced to this stage of the playoffs by bouncing the Boston Red Sox in a clean sweep last week. They proved that there isn't anything that they can't do in their quest for another World Series crown.
The starting pitching only had one poor outing, when LHP Scott Kazmir gave up five runs in six frames at Fenway Park in Game 3. The bullpen... -
Week 6 of the NFL betting season wraps up on Monday night, meaning that Bookmaker Sportsbook customers will have one final chance to try boosting their bankrolls with all of the action. In a crucial early-season NFL wagering affair, the Denver Broncos (5-0, 5-0 ATS) will put their perfect season on the line when they invade Qualcomm Stadium to tangle with the San Diego Chargers (2-2, 1-3 ATS).
Should Denver win this game, it will open up a commanding 3.5-game lead in the AFC West, while a victory for San Diego will considerably narrow the gap about a third of the way through the season.
After one week of play, many thought the Broncos were the luckiest and most undeserving 1-0 team in the league. That win in Cincinnati looks all the more impressive now that the Bengals sit atop the AFC North. Then Denver feasted on a pair of bottom-feeders in the NFL and was called a soft 3-0. Dallas came to town and walked away with a 17-10 defeat, but still, no one be... -
It’s a battle of the NFC's Yin and Yang when the New York Giants head to the Big Easy to face the New Orleans Saints.
Oddsmakers have set the Saints as 3.5-point home favorites in the Super Dome.
While the Giants are known for their relentless pass rush and hard-nosed defense, and the Saints are the closest thing NFL fans will get to a free-wheeling college football offense, these two teams haven't been stuck in these general roles.
New York's offense has come to life behind quarterback Eli Manning. Despite nursing a sore heel, the younger Manning has led the Giants to the second ranked offense in the NFL, which has averaged more than 417 yards per game with 257 of those gains coming from the passing game.
The Saints defense was the biggest thing that held the franchise back last season, but this year the stop unit is holding up its end of the bargain. New Orleans is currently sixth in the league in total yards against, h... -
The second round of the baseball betting postseason kicks off on Thursday night and Bookmaker Sportsbook is your official headquarters for all of the MLB gambling action. The Philadelphia Phillies (96-70, +$585) will look to continue their quest to defend their World Series crown against the Los Angeles Dodgers (98-67, +$1,463) in the National League Championship Series. The Phillies had to fight arguably the hottest team in baseball and Mother Nature in the NLDS, but when it was said and done, they disposed of the Rockies in four games. The Dodgers had a significantly easier time reaching the NLCS, knocking out the Cardinals in three games.
Manager Charlie Manuel has to question whether his pitching staff really has the capability to pitch his Phillies to another championship this postseason. Even though LHP Cliff Lee proved to be a dominant force in his two outings, his other starting pitchers and his bullpen both struggled in the series victory over Colorado. The s...
