      Thursday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but..........

      13) Can’t help Joe Torre’s case that he makes $7M/year and hasn’t won World Series since ’00, while Clint Hurdle has the Rockies in World Series, making $800,000.

      12) NFL might move first round of next April’s draft to Friday primetime, and shorten time between picks to ten minutes.

      11) Eagles scored 56 points against Lions in Week 3, but in their other four games combined, scored a total of 44 points.

      10) Notre Dame is 111th (out of 119) in country in passing yardage; too bad they don't have a coach who is a passing guru. Oh wait, he is one, and he makes $3M a year? Forget I said anything.

      9) In last year’s Florida State-Miami game, teams combined to run the ball 51 times for three yards, and both teams had positive yardage. Not sure which team had the two yards.

      8) Texas A&M-Nebraska isn’t on TV this week. Anywhere. That is very bad news for both head coaches. Bill Callahan’s logical replacement at Nebraska figures to be U of Buffalo coach and former Husker QB Turner Gill, who has improved the Bulls significantly during his stay in western New York.

      7) Jimmy Kimmel was in the booth for a while during Giants-Falcons Monday night, but apparently won’t be again, after asking Ron Jaworski if he bet on games, and making a couple references to Joe Theismann, who still isn’t happy about getting bumped off MNF. There is a line between funny and tasteless, and often it is very thin.

      6) The Las Vegas Arena League team is moving to Cleveland, where Bernie Kosar will be CEO. The Nashville Kats folded, and the Austin Wranglers dropped into AF2, so the AFL will be a little lighter next spring.

      5) There are new ice skates called Therma Blades, which heat up to 41 degrees, making skating a lot easier. Wayne Gretzky tried them couple years ago and immediately invested in the company. NHL is going to experiment with them in the near future, but not soon enough for the Atlanta Thrashers, who fired coach Hartley after a 0-6 start. Is six games long enough to know that the coach is a disaster?

      4) When Alex Rodriguez opts out of his contract, they’ll be popping champagne in Arlington, where the Rangers get off the hook for $20M+ they were stuck for to help Bronx pay ARod’s stupid-high salary.

      3) Kobe Bryant has four years, $88.6M left on his contract, which he can opt out of in two years, leaving $47.8M on the table. If I ever left $48M on the table, I’d be afraid to walk up the street until I had a new contract signed.

      2) Attendance for Tennessee’s basketball games went up 60.8% in Bruce Pearl’s first two seasons in Knoxville. His Vols are 3-1 vs Florida-- Gators won national title both years.

      1) Baseball attendance went up another 4.5% this season, so nitwits will be able to quote that figure and say the sport is healthy. When a guy who makes playoffs 12 years in a row gets fired because he hasn’t won a World Series since 2000, there is something very unhealthy about that.

        College Football - Dunkel Index

        Dunkel Index

        South Florida at Rutgers
        South Florida gets to put its No. 2 ranking in the BCS (No. 16 in Dunkel) on the line tonight at Rutgers. The Bulls have managed a perfect 6-0 record behind an opportunistic offense that is ranked 27th in scoring (35.17 ppg) and a defense that is ranked 11th in scoring (15.67) and total defense (284.33 ypg). But that defense will be put to the test by a Rutgers offense that is ranked second in the Big East in both rushing (182.17 ypg) and passing (307.50 ypg). The Scarlet Knights had their dream season come to a screeching halt with back-to-back losses to Maryland and Cincinnati. But they got back on track last week with a 38-14 win over Syracuse after spotting the Orange the first 14 points. The best sign for Rutgers fans was the reemergence of Ray Rice as the junior tailback rushed for 196 yards and 3 TDs. Rutgers was able to nip South Florida on the road (22-20) last year and should be fired up as a home underdog (+2 1/2) to pull off the upset in this one according to Dunkel, which has the Scarlet Knights favored straight up by 3 1/2. Dunkel Pick: Rutgers (+2 1/2). Here are all of this week's picks.

              #2 South Florida at Rutgers (ESPN | 7:30 PM)

              South Florida has won 8 straight dating back to last season, going 6-1 ATS in those games. The Bulls enter this nationally televised game at #2 in the initial BCS Standings released last Sunday and are still not getting much respect from the rest of the country. "I get distracted like everybody else, but I try to keep them to a minimum," South Florida coach Jim Leavitt said. "We've only played one game in the Big East, and our goal from the beginning was the Big East championship. And I want to tell you something, it's going to be a barn-burner these next number of weeks." EDGE: SOUTH FLORIDA
              The Bulls have not allowed a 100-yard rusher in 14 games, but the last back to crack the century mark was Rutgers' Ray Rice, who ran for 202 yards and two touchdowns against them last season in a 22-20 win. Rice is coming off a season-high 196 yards and three touchdowns in a 38-14 win at Syracuse last Saturday. SLIGHT EDGE: RUTGERS
              Rutgers has not lost 3 straight home games since 2003.
              Rutgers is 6-2 ATS in its last 8 games.
              The UNDER is 8-3 in South Florida's last 11 road games.
              The UNDER is 14-6 in South Florida's last 20 games as a favorite.
              The OVER is 7-2-1 in Rutgers' last 10 games overall.


              Utah at TCU (8 PM)

              The Horned Frogs are giving up just 6.3 points per game at home this season while the Utes are allowing an average of 28.7 on the road. TCU has won its 3 home games by a combined score of 72-19. EDGE: TCU
              Utah has thrived offensively since the return of QB Brian Johnson, winning three straight and averaging nearly 34 points per game. The Utes went with two QBs in a 27-0 loss at UNLV back on September 22nd because Johnson was recovering from a shoulder injury. He has completed over 70 percent of his passes since then with four touchdowns and three interceptions. EDGE: UTAH
              TCU’s much-heralded defense has given up 60 points and 402 rushing yards over its last two games while Utah is averaging 500+ over its last two. In fact, TCU is giving up an average of 139 rushing yards per game this year, and Utah is rushing for an average of 143, so this game could very well be decided on the ground. EDGE: UTAH
              TCU is 9-3-1 ATS in its last 13 vs. a team with a winning record.
              TCU is 38-18 ATS in its last 56 home games.

                What bettors need to know: South Florida at Rutgers
                ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                South Florida Bulls at Rutgers Scarlet Knights (+3)

                Main course: Rice

                Raymell Rice may not be the biggest or the fastest running back in college football. But that doesn’t mean the South Florida Bulls aren’t preparing for the former All-American.

                “When you do find him, if you try to arm tackle him, he’ll put you on the sideline next to the trainers,” USF defensive line coach Dan McCarney told the Tampa Tribune. “I saw a lot of good backs in my years in the Big 12 [Iowa State] and Big Ten [Iowa]. Ray Rice matches up with any of them.”

                Rice, a preseason Heisman Trophy candidate, struggled at the start of the season. Rice rushed for less than 100 yards in three straight games before breaking loose for 196 yards and three TDs last Saturday against Syracuse.

                “He hadn’t been as productive as he was used to being,” Rutgers coach Greg Schiano told reporters. “All he did was work harder in practice. I was glad to see him have another Ray Rice-type game. He does things the way we’d like Rutgers football players to do things, on and off the field.”

                That’s terrible news for the Bulls.

                The stout RB was the last player to rush for over 100 yards against USF. He had 202 yards and two TDs in the Scarlet Knights’ 22-20 win over the Bulls on Sept. 29, 2006.

                Bully defense

                South Florida climbed to No. 3 in the USA Today rankings this week behind a strong defense that has limited its opponents to fewer than 300 yards of offense per game this season.

                The Bulls held Central Florida running back Kevin Smith to less than 60 yards on 18 carries in last Saturday’s 64-12 win over the Knights. They have not allowed a 100-yard rusher in 14 consecutive outings.

                “It was a great challenge,” Bulls defensive end George Selvie told reporters. “We love it, but we've got to keep it that way all season.”

                South Florida also forced three first-half turnovers on Saturday. The Bulls have forced three or more TOs four times this season and are ranked fourth nationally with 21 TOs gained this season.

                Jack of all trades

                Sophomore Matt Grothe has done more than just throw the ball for South Florida this season. The versatile quarterback is also the Bulls’ top rusher.

                Grothe leads USF with 364 rushing yards after back-to-back 100-yard performances against Florida International and Central Florida.

                “[Grothe] broke some tackles which was really big," USF coach Jim Leavitt told reporters after his team’s win. “They had people in position to make plays, they just didn't make plays on the ball.”

                The sophomore QB has passed for over 1,000 yards with seven TDs and three interceptions this season. His legs, however, could be his best option against the Scarlet Knights defense.

                Rutgers is ranked fifth in pass defense, limiting opponents to fewer than 160 yards per game this season. Conversely, the Scarlet Knights are allowing over 140 rushing yards per game.

                Crunching the numbers

                South Florida is the highest-ranked team to come to Rutgers since then-No. 1 Miami beat the Scarlet Knights 42-17 in 2002.

                “We have a huge game this week, a lot on the line, a lot at stake,” Bulls linebacker Ben Moffitt told reporters. “We have to really get it done. All our focus is towards Rutgers.”

                The Scarlet Knights have not lost three straight home games since 2003 and are 9-3 against the spread (ATS) in their last 12 contests as an underdog at Rutgers Stadium.

                South Florida, conversely, is 7-1 ATS in its last eight games as a favorite and 4-1 in its last five conference matchups.

                          Week 7 NFL scoreboard

                          Sunday, October 21

                          Cardinals (3-3) @ Redskins (3-2)— Leinart, Warner both out for Arizona, so Rattay is QB, bad news vs tough Redskinn defense that held Pack to 225 yards at Lambeau last week. Before both QBs got hurt, Arizona’s only losses had been by FG each (all three of their road games were decided by three points). Skins are 2-1 at home, winning by 3,31 points. NFC East home favorites are 4-1-1 vs spread in non-division games, NFC West road dogs are 2-3-1. Arizona has 22 penalties for 201 yards in their last two games. Redskins held three of last four opponents under 5.5 yds per pass attempt; they’ve allowed one TD on opponents’ last 24 drives.

                          Falcons (1-5) @ Saints (1-4)— Saints win one ballgame, all of a sudden they’re 9-point favorites in rivalry game? Short week for Atlanta, off dismal Monday night performance; they’re 0-3 on road, losing by 21-6-7 points, and completed less than half their passes in each of last two games. Saints didn’t score in second half at Seattle; they’ve been outscored 79-33 after halftime this season. Falcon receivers were bad Monday, which helps explain their 7-31 mark on third down in last two games. Saints held last four opponents under 100 yards rushing- last week was their first with less than two turnovers. All three Atlanta road games stayed under the total.

                          49ers (2-3) @ Giants (4-2)—Short week for red-hot Giants, with London trip on deck; they better not look ahead here, vs Niner club that lost last three games before its bye, by 21-20-2 points. Only once in five games has SF gained 200+ yards in game; they have two TDs on last 36 drives, and with Dilfer at QB, they’re lame on offense (5-26 on 3rd down, 0.6/4.6 ypp last two games). Giants won last four in row, by 7-13-11-21 points, scoring 26.5 pg (eight TDs on 23 drives in last two games); after allowing 478-368 yards in first two games, NY has allowed average of 252.8 ypg during win streak. Four of five 49er games stayed under the total.

                          Ravens (4-2) @ Bills (1-4)—Baltimore bullied bad teams last two weeks, holding Dilfer-Frerotte to one TD on 23 drives, in 9-7/22-3 wins; they’re 1-2 on road, losing at division rivals Bengals-Browns, and nipping Niners in weak effort, so they’re suspect on road, especially if Boller starts (they have one TD on 24 drives in last two games). First game for Bills after bye and Monday night meltdown vs. Dallas- their three home games (1-2) have been decided by total of five points- they were +6 in turnovers and lost Dallas game, which is really hard to do. Only once in four games have they averaged 4+ yards per pass attempt. Four of last five Raven games stayed under total.

                          Vikings (2-3) @ Cowboys (5-1)— Dallas’ last game before bye and three straight division games; they’re 3-1 vs spread as faves, 2-1 at home, with wins by 10-32 points- their last five opponents ran ball for 70.8 ypg, good news vs Viking squad averaging 170.2 ypg after 311-yard outburst in Chicago last week. Cowboy secondary can be exploited, but can Jackson (9-23/130 last week) do it? Minnesota losses are by 3-3-7 points; they turned ball over five times in only previous turf game (17-20 @ Detroit), have only four other giveaways (+5 TO ratio). NFC East home favorites are 4-1-1 vs spread out of division; NFC North road dogs are 2-4.

                          Patriots (6-0) @ Dolphins (0-6)— With New England 6-0 (against spread too), ’72 Dolphins have reason to worry about being last unbeaten team. Miami lost only home games 37-20/35-17, giving up nine TDs on 21 drives; 0-6 teams don’t have home field edge, especially ones that play in good weather cities, where fans are not as avid. Patriots finding reason to run up score on every opponent, scoring 34+ in all six games, winning road games by 24-21-21 points. I guess there is possible letdown after big Dallas win, but these Patriots seem totally focused right now, scoring 26 TDs on 68 drives (38.2%). Four of last five Miami games went over total.

                          Bucs (4-2) @ Lions (3-2)—Detroit is 2-0 at home, beating Vikings, Bears; their two losses are by 35-31 points. Hard to imagine Jeff Garcia’s Bucs inflicting that kind of damage, but Kiffin defenses always did pretty well vs Ram version of Martz Madness. Bucs are 1-2 on road, losing at Seattle (20-6), Indy (33-14), but 3-0 if they score more than 14 points; Lions haven’t held anyone under 17, and only one team under 21. Kitna’s been sacked 24 times in last four games; Lions are 3-20 (!5%) on third down last two games, after being 18-45 (40%) in first three. Tampa has 27 rushed for 47 yards in last two games; three of their last four games stayed under total.

                          Titans (3-2) @ Texans (3-3)—Key here is Young’s quad injury; will have to be really bad for him to miss game vs division rival/ hometown team that he tortured LY in pair of wins (26-20/28-22). Titans are 9-3 in last 12 games, 2-1 on road in ’07, allowing just 12.3 pg away from home (four TDs on 29 drives). Houston is 2-1 at home, losing to Colts; Texans allowed 30-26-37 points in their losses, 3-21-19 in wins- Titans cracked 20 mark in only one of five games (at then-winless Saints). Houston lost three of last four games, with only win by FG over 0-6 Dolphins. Under is 4-0-1 in Titan games, but 1-4 in last five Texan tilts.

                          Chiefs (3-3) @ Raiders (2-3)—Herm’s team won three of last four games; they’ve scored 13 or less points in all three losses, 30-27 in wins. Raiders allowed 23+ points in four of five games; they’re 1-1 at home (21-36/26-24). Chiefs are 1-2 on road, losing at Texans (3-20), Bears (10-20) before win at San Diego (30-16) that seemed to revitalize them. Oakland had three turnovers in all three of its losses; they’re 2-0 if they turn it over less than three times. Raiders allowed 347 rushing yards in last two games, good news for sluggish (under 75 rushing yards in 4 of 6 games) KC attack. Home side is 1-4-1 vs spread in AFC West divisional games this season. Four of five Oakland games went over total.

                          Bears (2-4) @ Eagles (2-3)—Chicago allowed 311 rushing yards last week, turned ball over four times (-4) and lost on 55-yard FG at gun; go figure. Griese was 26-45/269, Hester ran another punt back for a TD, so once-stodgy Bears are now fun to watch, more porous on defense (allowed 31.3 pg in last four games) but explosive with ball (seven TDs on last 40 drives, after two on first 35). Philly scored 56 points vs Lions in Week 3, but total of 44 in other four games; in their last two games, they’ve kicked three FGs in five visits to red zone, and have only one 80-yard+ TD drive all year (in 14 tries). Last four Chicago games went over; four of last five Eagle games stayed under.

                          Jets (1-5) @ Bengals (1-4)—Cincy lost last four games, Jets last three, so pair of desperate teams. Bengals are poor on defense (allowed 34 pg in last four), Gang Green is shaky with ball (scored 14 or less in four of six games, with only win vs 0-6 Miami). Jets allowed 339 rush yards in last two games; they’re 0-2 away from home, losing at Ravens (20-13), Bills (17-14). Bengals are -6 in turnovers during skid, throwing pair of picks in each of last three games- they allowed 294 rush yards in last two games. AFC North home favorites are 5-2 vs. spread in non-divisional games. Jets one of five teams without TD drive of less than 50 yards. Hard to endorse either side in this game.

                          Rams (0-6) @ Seahawks (3-3)— St Louis is real awful, with four losses by 14+ points; they’re 1-3 vs spread as underdog, -8 in turnovers the last five weeks, and on few occasions when they do get ball in position to score, PK Wilkins has been dreadful, missing three easy FGs already. Bulger expected to return at QB for Rams, after Frerotte threw five picks in Baltimore and got pummeled all day. Seattle lost last two games, getting outscored 49-10 in Steeler game and first half vs Saints; they’ve run ball for just 224 yards in last three games, as natives grumble about Alexander’s toughness. Under is 5-1 in Ram games, 3-1 in last four Seattle tilts.

                          Steelers (4-1) @ Broncos (2-3)—Denver lost last three games, but Rockies’ success has kept fans off their backs- they allowed 102 points in last three games (13 TDs on 26 drives!!!) and allowed 206.5 rushing yards/game over last four tilts, so interesting to see what adjustments they made during bye week. Steelers also had last week off; they’ve won games by 27-23-21-21 points, with only loss vs their old assistants in Arizona. Ben completed just 50% of passes in last two games, but Pitt has outscored their opponents 57-6 in first half of games this year. AFC North teams are 1-4-1 vs. spread on road, in non-division games, though, and Broncos are desperate home dog in night game.

                          Monday, October 22

                          Colts (5-0) @ Jaguars (4-1)— Last year, Jax ran ball for 566 yards (191-375) in splitting pair vs Colts, handing Indy 44-17 loss on this field- Jaguars won four in row since opening loss to Texans; they’ve allowed just 37 points in four home games, but Indy steamrolling towards showdown with Patriots- their road wins have been close (22-20/30-24). Jags allowing just 9.8 pg this year; they’ve run ball for 194.7 ypg in last three weeks, and are 28-55 on 3rd down during win streak, so they make plays to keep chains moving, which is critical, if they want to keep ball away from Manning. Four of five Indy games went over the total.
