4 Unit Play. #61 Take Oklahoma State Cowboys over Texas Longhorns (Saturday 3:30 pm ABC) The Horns just keeping rolling along having beaten Oklahoma and Missouri by double-digits in consecutive weeks. Both of those wins needed high emotional efforts and I wonder if they can get up yet again. Now they face a Cowboys that is loose and high flying with an explosive offense and a much improved defense. Factor all that plus revenge after losing to Texas in Stillwater last year, 38-35. OK State also beat Missouri, but that came in Columbia. Both teams have yet to lose a game against the spread, so something has to give and this writer is going with the dog, call the upset here! OK State 38, Texas 35.

4 Unit Play. #76 Take Pittsburgh Panthers over Rutgers Scarlet Knights (Saturday 3:30 pm ESPN 360) This is just a case of two teams going in opposite directions. True, the Knights beat Connecticut last week; however, when I looked over the stats, the offense was not that impressive. Now they face a Panther team that has the most talented since Coach Wannstedt took over. The were shocked in the opener by Bowling Green, but since then it has been a success and now return home after three road games. This is a game they must win since the schedule gets much tougher in November. The Knights have a three game winning streak over Pittsburgh, but that ends here, as Pittsburgh starts to play to their potential and have a season everyone expects them to have. Pitt rolls! Pittsburgh 27, Rutgers 14.

BIG 12 GAME OF YEAR

6 Unit Play. #30 Take Nebraska Cornhuskers over Baylor Bear (Saturday 12:30 pm Versus) Big XII Game of the Year. Huskers still do not have a defense to brag about they seem to be getting better each week. As for the offense, they are much improved over the Bill Callahan years with more balance. Nebraska will be able to move the ball through the air considering the Bears terrible passing defense. Every team this year has stung them good including Northwestern State and Washington State, two of the worst teams in football. The Huskers have come off of two road games and now return home since that crushing loss to Missouri, 52-17. Coach Pelini apologized to the state for that performance and that loss is still in the player’s minds and expect an all-out effort on Saturday. Nebraska has played a brutal schedule and that has prepared them well to pound Baylor, as NU comes to play. Nebraska 48, Baylor 14.

double-dime bet131 Mississippi -5.0 (-110) Sportsbetting.com vs 132 Arkansas
Analysis:
Mississippi -5

Analysis: Look for Mississippi to cover this number in the Houston Nutt Bowl. Nutt will have his Ole Miss team more than ready returning to Arkansas, the school that fired him last year after 10 seasons in Fayetteville.

Nutt's Rebels are the more consistent and better team. They also have the better quarterback with Jevan Snead over Casey Dick.

Arkansas has been outscored, 87-21, in its two SEC home games this season. Mississippi was impressive in road conference games versus Florida and Alabama.

Arkansas has gotten better lately thanks to the running of Michael Smith. However, Smith suffered a concussion last week.

If he plays, his workload is going to be cut back. Ole Miss has a strong run defense, yielding just 3.2 yards per rush

triple-dime bet116 Indiana / 115 Northwestern Over 48.0 BetUS
Analysis: NCAAF: Northwestern Wildcats at Indiana Hoosiers - Over 48 -110 | Unit Value: 3 UNIT "Total Dominator)
Game Date: 10/25/2008
Note: Let's get this one now. These teams do not put their focus on defense and their numbers prove that. That is especially true of the Hoosiers who have allowed 31 points per game and have a run D just as bad as it gets. The Wildcats come into Bloomington as beat up on D as they have been this year. They have serious problems filling the gaps Saturday and they will face a Hoosier team that have a very balanced attack of run/pass. Even if these things were not the case this Saturday consider this. The last 8 Contests between these two have produced 51 Points or more. Most MUCH MORE. Teams that cannot stop the run leave themselves open to downfield passing, as the Linebackers have to over-commit to the possibility of the running game being used. Both of the QB's in this contest have proven that they can spread the field and we should see that Saturday. We should see some easy scores Saturday because of that. I have checked the longterm weather and the Bloomington area is expected to get some rain Friday and Friday nite. There is only a small chance of that happening gameday. A wet or not so perfect field can only help our chances of this one going OVER the total. For those of you that are getting in late, this line has moved to 49.5 at most books and is still a play at that level.

double-dime bet149 UCLA 17.0 (-110) Bodog vs 150 California
Analysis:
There's nobody better in the country in picking UCLA CBB/CFB games and I fully anticipate a great performance by the Bruins this week.



UCLA was up against it BIG TIME last week in pulling off a last minute drive against Stanford. The Cardinal wanted this game in a "major way" and head coach Jim Harbaugh was left stunned.



California is emotionally shattered after blowing a double-digit lead in the desert and now walks into its WORST ATS SITUATION - a double-digit favorite from mid-October on.



The Bears are 0-9 ATS in this situation the last three years and are also 0-8 ATS in their last eight games following a Pac-10 loss that saw them leading at halftime.



It will be UGLY - but the Bruins stay under the number here.

triple-dime bet145 Alabama -5.0 (-110) BetUS vs 146 Tennessee
Analysis:
Alabama head coach Nick Saban will have his troops in top form on Saturday night, as they go into Neyland Stadium and face the Tennessee Volunteers.



Tennessee has yet to show anything against an opponent that has outclassed them on the football field, as Florida absolutely demolished this team and Georgia failed to blow them out because of poor offensive execution.



That will not be the case, as Saban wants the Tide to roll into Baton Rouge in two weeks with a perfect 9-0 record and a possible #1 label on its back. Full focus will be on getting a big win here, as they face an absolute cupcake next week for Homecoming.



Tennessee's wins read like this: UAB, NIU and Mississippi State......Wow.....That's a far cry for Alabama's big neutral site and road wins against Clemson (Before their meltdown) and Georgia.



Alabama QB John Parker Wilson will have no trouble making plays against a Tennessee D that he completed 32 of 46 passes against for 363 yards and three touchdowns last year.



Lay the number and don't fall into the SEC home underdog trap - Saban's not happy about his team's last two performances and they blow out Tennessee on Saturday.
