USC at Arizona State
Oregon's loss last week to Arizona has opened a lot of doors for both these teams. On the line is a shot at the Pac-10 title and for Arizona State at least, an outside shot at the BCS championship. ASU coach Dennis Erickson has led an impressive turnaround in a program that was just 7-6 (4-5 in conference play) last year and hasn't been to a Rose Bowl since 1997. The Sun Devils are coming off a much-needed bye week that has given QB Rudy Carpenter's thumb some time to heal. When healthy, Carpenter has put up big numbers, completing 63 percent of his passes for 2,528 yards and 20 TDs against only eight INTs. His injury has also forced ASU to look to its running game and Keegan Herring responded with 116 yards, including a 71-yard TD run, against UCLA two weeks ago. The comeback win over the Bruins on the road showed Arizona State hadn't thrown in the towel after losing an emotional game to Oregon. Now the emotion should be on their side in front of a home crowd on Thanksgiving against the reigning Pac-10 champs. ASU looks like a good underdog pick (+3) according to Dunkel ,which has the Sun Devils favored straight up by 4. Dunkel Pick: Arizona State (+3). Here are all of Thursday and Friday's games.

Thursday, November 22

#11 USC at #6 Arizona State (ESPN | 8 PM ET)

The Sun Devils can clinch at least a share of the Pac-10 title with a victory meaning a possible trip to the Rose Bowl for the first time in 10 years. "I told them that I hoped that I could take them to places like this, where they would have this opportunity, and it's here," ASU head coach Dennis Erickson said. "It's going to be fun for them, and it's fun for me to watch them react to where they're at right now. That's the fun part of coaching. "Now, playing USC, I don't know how much fun that's going to be." EDGE: ARIZONA STATE
The Trojans have won the last seven meetings with Arizona State by a combined score of 274-141. However, they are just 2-4 SU all-time against ranked Sun Devil teams. SLIGHT EDGE: ARIZONA STATE
Both starting quarterbacks are still hampered by hand injuries, which means the running games of each team could be the difference. USC and Arizona State rank second and third in the conference, respectively, in run defense. The Trojans rank third in the Pac-10 in rushing offense, averaging 185.6 yards per game. SLIGHT EDGE: USC & UNDER
USC is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games against a winning team.
USC is 7-0 ATS in its last 7 games as a road favorite of 3.5-10 points.
Arizona State is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games following an ATS loss.
Arizona State is 2-5 ATS in its last 7 games as an underdog.
The OVER is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Arizona State.


Friday, November 23

Nebraska at Colorado (ABC | 12 PM ET)

It's anybody's guess which Nebraska team will show up here in Boulder - the team that dropped five in a row following a 4-1 start or the team that demolished Kansas State 73-31 before its bye week. Joe Ganz broke school records with 510 passing yards and seven touchdowns in the rout of the Wildcats, which followed a 76-39 loss to Kansas the week before. That was the second start at QB for Ganz, who has 11 TD passes in two games. SLIGHT EDGE: NEBRASKA
Colorado is coming off a bye week following a 31-28 loss at Iowa State on November 10th. The Buffs would have likely been headed to a bowl game had they beaten the Cyclones, but now this becomes a must-win to become eligible for the postseason. They will be looking to take advantage of a defense that has surrendered nearly 43 points per game in their last six. EDGE: COLORADO
Nebraska is 5-2 ATS in its last 7 games following a bye week.
Nebraska is 2-8 ATS in its last 10 games overall.
Colorado is 9-4 ATS in its last 13 games against a losing team.
Colorado is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games overall.
Nebraska is 3-8 ATS in the last 11 meetings.
Underdog is 9-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings.


Arkansas at #1 LSU (CBS | 2:30 PM ET)

LSU head coach Les Miles has tried to downplay the distraction of being mentioned among the top candidates to replace retired Michigan coach Lloyd Carr. However, it clearly seems to be bothering him as he looks to lead the Tigers to the BCS title game. "Michigan has not called - it's unfair to Michigan to say that they should, and it is unfair to me and my time," Miles said. "What I am doing is what you should be doing - let it rest. I am playing football for LSU. I am preparing for Arkansas. I am going to be ready for the next game and the game after that. I love this team. I would not do anything to hurt it." EDGE: ARKANSAS
The Razorbacks are also dealing with a coaching dilemma, as Houston Nutt is reportedly on his way out even though the school is declining comment. "All you want to do is coach football," Nutt said. "One of my dreams has been to coach at the University of Arkansas and I've had the privilege to do it for 10 years. I'm very thankful for that. All I want to do is concentrate on LSU. That's all I want to do." Insiders believe his players will go all out for him in what could be his final regular-season game. EDGE: ARKANSAS
Nutt said he expects RB Felix Jones (bruised thigh) to play against LSU after making just one catch with no carries last week against Mississippi State. Jones and Heisman Trophy candidate Darren McFadden form the nation's top RB tandem but could struggle against the SEC's stingiest run defense, allowing just 78.3 yards per game. EDGE: LSU
Arkansas is 4-0 ATS in its last 4 games as a road underdog of 10.5+ points.
Arkansas is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games overall.
LSU is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 Friday games.
LSU is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 games overall.
The road team is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings.


#13 Texas at Texas A&M (ABC | 3:30 PM ET)

The Longhorns still have a shot to make it to the Big 12 title game, as a victory and Oklahoma loss to Oklahoma State on Saturday would get them there. Texas has won five straight games behind a resurgent rushing attack, which ranks fourth in the nation since October 27th with 318 yards per game. EDGE: TEXAS
The Aggies have dropped three in a row - all to teams in their conference ranked in the Top 10 nationally. Texas ranks just outside the Top 10 but has won three straight at Kyle Field, holding a 73-35-5 lead all-time in the rivarly. EDGE: TEXAS
Texas is 20-8-1 in its last 29 November games.
Texas is 2-5 ATS in its last 7 road games.
Texas A&M is 7-1-1 ATS in its last 9 games following a SU loss.
Texas A&M is 3-7 ATS in its last 10 games against a winning team.
The home team is 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings.


#19 Boise State at #15 Hawaii (ESPN2 | 9 PM ET)

Hawaii has lost six straight meetings with the Broncos, who have a shot to derail the Warriors' unbeaten season and win the WAC title with a victory. Boise State is trying for its sixth consecutive conference championship, winning nine straight games since suffering a 24-21 loss at Washington back on September 8th. The Broncos will be trying for their 18th WAC win in a row and fourth straight victory at Hawaii. EDGE: BOISE STATE
Hawaii QB Colt Brennan needs just one touchdown pass to become the all-time leader with 122. Brennan is recovering a concussion and was behind center for just two plays last week in a 28-26 win at Nevada. However, he has proclaimed himself ready to go for arguably the school's biggest game ever. "Finally everybody can see how great of a team this really is," Brennan said. "I know people have said all year, 'Oh, they've got a great quarterback, that is why they win, but they don't really have a great team.' People saw how great of a complete team we are." EDGE: HAWAII
Boise State is 8-1 ATS in its last 9 Friday games.
Boise State is 10-3-1 ATS in its last 14 games as a road underdog.
Hawaii is 12-5 ATS in its last 17 games as a home favorite.
Hawaii is 0-6 ATS in its last 6 home games against a winning road team.
The OVER is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.


Saturday, November 24

#8 Virginia Tech at #16 Virginia (ESPN2 | 12 PM ET)

Virginia is the only ACC to own an unbeaten home mark this season, and the Cavs are also 7-0 following a bye week under head coach Al Groh. BIG EDGE: VIRGINIA
Virginia Tech still doesn't know whether Sean Glennon or Tyrod Taylor will start at QB. Glennon beat the Cavs last year, but Taylor might be a better option due to his running ability against Virginia's pass rush. EDGE: VIRGINIA TECH
Virginia Tech is 9-2 ATS in its last 11 games as a road favorite.
Virginia Tech is 21-6 ATS in their last 27 Conference games.
Virginia is 13-3 ATS in its last 16 games as a home underdog.
Virginia is 23-11 ATS in its last 34 home games.
The favorite is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings.


Miami (Fla.) at #14 Boston College (ESPN | 12 PM ET)

The Hurricanes have won the last 15 meetings with Boston College since former Eagles legend Doug Flutie launched his Hail Mary pass to beat them back in 1984. BC has not earned double-digit wins since finishing 11-0 in 1940. EDGE: MIAMI
Miami must win this game to become bowl eligible, as the 'Canes have earned a postseason bid every year since 1997. They have not lost at BC since 1975. EDGE: MIAMI
BC has already clinched a berth in the ACC title game, but head coach Jeff Jagodzinski said he will play his starters in an effort to earn a victory in the team's home finale.. "I'm not going to put guys at risk, but we do want to win this ballgame," Jagodzinski said. Senior QB Matt Ryan agreed with those sentiments. "We've got an important game this weekend," Ryan said. "It's the last game at home for a lot of seniors. It's a lot of fun and I think we'll prepare well this week." EDGE: BC
Miami-Florida is 3-13-1 ATS in its last 17 Conference games.
Miami-Florida is 7-19-1 ATS in its last 27 games overall.
Boston College is 9-4 ATS in its last 13 home games.
Boston College is 2-9 ATS in its last 11 home games against a losing road team.
The home team is 7-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings.


#18 Tennessee at Kentucky (CBS | 1:30 PM ET)

Tennessee has won the last 22 meetings with Kentucky and must win this game in order to gain a berth in the SEC championship game. If the Vols lose, Georgia will play LSU for the title. BIG EDGE: TENNESSEE
The Wildcats would love nothing more than to end that long series skid and finish the season on a positive note. A victory for Kentucky would also likely mean an upgraded bowl game for the seniors, including QB Andre Woodson, the SEC's leader in passing yards and touchdowns. "It's significant going into the last week of Kentucky football that we can determine who the SEC East champion will be," Kentucky head coach Rich Brooks said. EDGE: KENTUCKY
Tennessee is 7-3-1 ATS in its last 11 games as a small underdog.
Tennessee is 6-2 ATS in its last 8 games overall.
Kentucky is 11-5 ATS in its last 16 games overall.
Kentucky is 8-3 ATS in its last 11 games against a winning team.

#20 Connecticut at #3 West Virginia (ABC | 3:30 PM ET)

West Virginia controls its own destiny for the Big East title and automatic berth in the BCS.

"Now we're to the point that we can say this game is for the Big East championship. It is." EDGE: WEST VIRGINIA
UConn has lost its last two road games and will have a hard time stopping West Virginia's vaunted rushing attack. The Huskies have one of the Big East's top pass defenses, but they are giving up 125.9 yards per game on the ground. EDGE: WEST VIRGINIA

#7 Georgia at Georgia Tech (ABC | 3:30 PM ET)

The Bulldogs will clinch a spot in the SEC title game if Tennessee loses at Kentucky, and they could also improve their chances for an at-large BCS bid even if the Vols win by knocking off their intrastate rivals. "Our guys understand that," Georgia head coach Mark Richt said. "They understand we'll be in a very good position to have a BCS opportunity if we win, regardless of what happens in the Kentucky-Tennessee game. And just playing Georgia Tech is plenty of motivation for our guys to get ready to play." EDGE: GEORGIA
The key to Georgia's five-game winning streak since losing at Tennessee has been the strong play of freshman RB Knowshon Moreno, who has totaled 766 yards and nine touchdowns during that stretch. EDGE: GEORGIA

What bettors need to know: Southern California at Arizona State
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Southern California Trojans at Arizona State Sun Devils (+3 1/2)

ASU smelling roses

Arizona State hasn't been to a Rose Bowl since 1997, but with two games to go they are in pole position to get there. The Sun Devils face defending Pac-10 champions USC on Thursday knowing that a win will guarantee them at least a share of the conference title and a bowl berth.

"I told them that I hoped that I could take them to places like this, where they would have this opportunity, and it's here," first-year head coach Dennis Erickson told The Associated Press. "It's going to be fun for them, and it's fun for me to watch them react to where they're at right now.

"Now, playing USC, I don't know how much fun that's going to be."

A win would not only put ASU in the Rose Bowl, but also keep it in the running for the national championship game. The Sun Devils are currently sixth in the BCS standings; a victory over USC could see them move up the list.

Arizona State's players are excited at the prospect.

"Fortunately for us, we're going to get a chance to be the national game on TV that day and play in front of pretty much the world, really, or the United States, actually," quarterback Rudy Carpenter said.

A loss wouldn't eliminate the Sun Devils from the Pac-10 title race, but they would need both USC and Oregon to lose again to keep them in contention.

Trojans' recovery

An ugly five-game stretch in the middle of USC's season threatened to put it out of contention, but the Trojans have since bounced back to win two straight. The program now has a shot at a record sixth-consecutive Pac-10 title.

USC's problems started with a loss to 40-point underdog Stanford and continued with narrow wins over Washington and Arizona , teams the Trojans were expected to dominate. Then, a 24-17 loss to conference rivals Oregon seemed to signal the end of their season.

Injuries played a big part in both losses. As soon as the Trojans started to get fit, their performances improved. They got starting quarterback John David Booty back from a broken finger to play in the last two games (both wins), and four of their five starting offensive linemen also returned.

"We look better," USC coach Pete Carroll told The Oregonian. "We look more confident. We look stronger. We're playing faster. It's clear. We can see it. Where that might have happened in the middle of the year, that we kind of get going, it's happened a little later."

While that turnaround has come too late for USC to have full control over its destiny, it has come in time to leave it a chance at the title. The Trojans need to win their final two games over Arizona State and UCLA, and hope that Oregon drops one of its last two contests.

"I think we have had a lot of missed opportunities, a lot of turnovers and we haven't capitalized in certain positions," cornerback Terrell Thomas said. "But we're still the same football team. We're trying to finish out, so the world will know we're still USC. I think we will be the best team when it's all said and done."

Hard hitter

USC tailback Chauncey Washington had the best outing of his career in the Trojans' last game, a 24-17 victory over California. He led his team with a career-high 220 yards and a touchdown, doubling his previous high of 119 yards set last year.

USC coach Pete Carroll says he will continue to give Washington the ball.

"We've been wanting Chauncey to be the energy of the offense," he told AP. "The last couple weeks, he's been feeling it. You could just tell he was on fire, and there's no way we should take the ball out of his hands."

Washington, who leads the team with 748 rushing yards and nine TDs, loves to wear down defenses with his physical play.

"I go out there and punish people," he told the Daily Trojan, USC's student paper. "I make people feel my pain without getting in trouble."

Washington says that hitting people with the force he does outside the stadium would probably get him arrested.

Last season, Washington was the difference in USC's 28-21 win over Arizona State. He gained 64 yards on 10 carries in the fourth quarter and provided the game-winning touchdown in an extremely close game. Carroll expects more of the same this week.

"He's in great shape for this late in the season," the coach said in the L.A. Times. "He's physically fit and really fast. It's not too much to expect him to play a big role in this game and do the same kinds of things."

Head to head

The Trojans have won the last seven meetings against the Sun Devils by a combined score of 274-141, covering the spread in five of those games. But USC has struggled against ranked Arizona State teams, posting a 2-4 record against ASU squads inside the Top 25.

The over is 4-1 in the last five games between these teams in Arizona.

The Penguins and Senators are facing each other for the first time since Ottawa eliminated Pittsburgh in the opening round of last year's playoffs. Pittsburgh won the final three regular-season games between the teams last year, including two by shootout.


Detroit Red Wings at Nashville Predators (+120, 5 1/2)
The Red Wings won their first contest with the Predators this season 3-2 in a shootout on Nov. 7, improving to 14-3-3 against Nashville since losing the previous three meetings.


Chicago Blackhawks at Calgary Flames (-160, 5 1/2)
The Blackhawks and Flames have split four meetings in each of the last three seasons.


Colorado Avalanche at Edmonton Oilers (+125, 5 1/2)

Ice picks: Thursday's best NHL wagers


Pittsburgh Penguins at Ottawa Senators (-200, 6)

These teams have played under the total in their last three meetings. But don't bank on that trend continuing tonight.

Those three games were during the playoffs when games are usually lower scoring than the regular season. The Pens won three of four regular season meetings with the Sens last year and over bettors cashed in three of those contests.

Sidney Crosby may have extra motivation going into this game because he was held off the scoresheet for only the second time this season on Wednesday. The Penguins played over the total in the only previous game that followed a pointless night by their captain.

Pick: over 6


Chicago Blackhawks at Calgary Flames (-160, 5 1/2)

Owen Nolan is on fire and that's great news for Flames backers. The veteran was held without a goal during his first 15 games with the team, but has scored four goals in the last six games. Calgary has won three of its last four games and Nolan had a multi-point game in two of those victories.

"I don't think I'm really doing much different, but the puck's going in," he told The Associated Press.

Pick: Flames -160


Colorado Avalanche at Edmonton Oilers (+125, 5 1/2)

It's been a rocky road trip for the Avalanche to say the least. Colorado lost the first three games of its current four-game road swing and managed just one goal in each defeat. The Avs have won just two of 10 road games this year and statistically own the league's worst road power play. They've had 12 opportunities with the man-advantage on this trip and came up empty each time.

Don't expect former Oiler Ryan Smyth to add any spark tonight. He's been held pointless during this road trip and has zero points in two games against the team he gave his heart and soul to for 12 years.

Pick: Oilers +125

Carle has been a regular on San Jose's blue line since signing a pro contract late in the 2005-06 season. He scored 42 points in 77 games last season, making the NHL's all-rookie team along with fellow Sharks defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic.

SPEAKING

''Good old Long Island came through for me once again. In all the seasons I've been a pro, I've had more goals on the road than at home, so this is new to me.'' - Christopher Higgins after leading Montreal to a 4-1 victory over the New York Islanders on Wednesday night. Higgins, a Long Island native, added a goal and assist.
