Chris Carpenter's stellar performance last night was no surprise; what was surprising were the defensive miscues and shaky bullpen of the Tigers. The result was a lopsided game that has Detroit in its first hole since Game Two of the ALDS. The Tigers battled back to beat the Yankees on the road in that game so they know it can be done. But they face one of the hottest pitchers around in Jeff Suppan tonight. Suppan, who looks to be showcasing his stuff just in time for his impending free agency, allowed only one run in 15 innings in the NLCS to garner the MVP award. Detroit starter Jeremy Bonderman has had two solid starts in the postseason, but both of those came at Comerica Park. His first road start (after an 11-day lay-off) against Suppan looks to be a tough chore. The Cards are a solid play to go up 3-1 in the series according to Dunkel, which has St. Louis favored by 1 1/2. Dunkel Pick: St. Louis

Navy has lost 42 in row vs. Notre Dame, but covered 12 of last 16; with QB Hampton out for year, it'll be 43 in row here. Irish outgained Navy 505-314 LY- their last two road series wins were 30-23/27-9. Notre Dame off UCLA escape, where they ran ball for only 41 yards so would expect them to establish run early; they had last three foes under 100 rushing yards, with only one giveaway during that time (+3).
Home side covered seven of last nine NCState-Virginia games, with home side winning last three years, and Wolfpack losing last visit here 14-9 (-7).

Northwestern lost last week after leading Michigan State 38-3 in second half; fat chance here vs Wolverine squad that covered four of last five series games, winning last three by scores of

Illini lost at Penn State last week because of turnovers; they outrushed Lions 207-40, but were just 13-33 passing, with four turnovers. Underdog covered the last six Illinois games.
Question for Michigan State is, do they channel the energy they got from huge comeback last week, or do they go back to being dysfunctional and lose to Indiana team that tries hard but is not a good team? Hoosiers are 4-4, but last two losses (52-17/44-3) show their lack of talent. Spartans covered seven of last nine in this series, winning last four games by average score of 41-15.
Bowling Green scored 70 points in each of last two games vs Temple (70-16/70-7) Temple covered at Northern Illinois last week, after trailing 40-0 in third quarter; they're so awful, hard to handicap them, but the Owls are 2-1-1 vs spread vs MAC teams (Temple joins the MAC next year).

Vanderbilt covered once in last seven tries as road favorite, and are double digit favorite (0-2 since '99) vs Duke squad that lost 20-15 to depleted Miami last week (TY 373-334 Duke). Vandy is 3-5 after losing to South Carolina LW, which ended any hopes of going to bowl (would need to beat Florida or Tennessee).

Cougars won, covered their last four games, with all four wins by 14+ points. Falcons lost to winless San Diego State LW, struggled to beat Colorado State after losing to Navy; their inability to pass has held them back.
Miami won its last two games vs Ball State, 28-20/49-3, but this has been lousy year for Red Hawks (1-7, beating Buffalo 38-31) they're 0-2 vs spread sa favorite. Ball State lost four of last five games- they're 0-6 if they score less than 38 points, and failed to cover last three tries as underdog. Average total in this series has been 39, with visiting team covering five of last seven tilts.
Iowa State, Kansas State both backsliding; Cyclones won last two series games, 37-23/45-17, but Cyclones lost three games in row and five of last six, allowing 34.7 ppg in last three contests.
