    College football odds: Week 12 opening line report

    The college football clichés just keep on coming these days, like servings at your upcoming Thanksgiving table. They’re everywhere, and they’re unavoidable, but sometimes, believe it or not, they actually apply.

    “It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.”

    “We’ll just take it one game at a time.”

    “It is what it is.”

    Well, Oregon running back LaMichael James has another one. After his Ducks hammered Stanford, 53-30, on Saturday, and thrust themselves back into the national title hunt, James offered up this, and rightfully so:

    “We just won a game. We’ll let everything else take care of itself.”

    Politically correct or no, Oregon, which advanced to the national title game last year, may just have a shot at a repeat appearance. You can make a case that no team is playing better than the Ducks are right now, and their only loss -- 40-27 to LSU in Week 1 -- seems like ages ago. And after all, it was LSU.

    Oregon has speed, skill and buckets of motivation tucked into those snazzy, multi-colored uniforms. And with the Stanfords and the Boise States of the world falling from the ranks of the unbeaten, indeed the door is open for the likes of Oregon and Oklahoma, for that matter.

    So, expect more action on the Ducks as we move forward. And with Southern Cal coming to Eugene this weekend, the books are prepping for a big one.

    “Once they start scoring, they’re going to keep pressing on to score more, if they have the chance,” Pete Korner of Esportclub, LLC, in Las Vegas, told ***********. “I just think, now that things have broken right for them, they have their opportunity.”

    Korner’s line consultant group recommended Oregon as a 17-point favorite. The Wynn, the first book in Nevada to open weekly college football lines opted with a shorter number, going with Oregon -15.5.

    “I don’t think it will be close,” Korner said. “Oregon’s going to blow them out.”

    And with that, let’s take a look at some of next week’s other marquee games using the Wynn’s opening lines and mentioning the Sports Club’s send out numbers:

    North Carolina (+11) at Virginia Tech

    Virginia is pecking at the heels of the Hokies in the ACC Coastal Division, but Virginia Tech, while underwhelming, is still finding a way to get it done. It shouldn’t be a surprise in the Frank Beamer Era, as quietly this program just keeps chugging along.

    “We don’t have a great feel for either team,” Korner said. “We don’t watch them all too often. But more is at stake for Virginia Tech, and they have more talent. At the beginning of the year, this line would have been higher.”

    Oklahoma State (-26) at Iowa State

    Did the Cowboys just score again versus Texas Tech? What a disaster in Lubbock, Texas over the weekend. But it just goes to show you how motivated Oklahoma State is, and that’s not good news for the Cyclones.

    The Sports Club opened recommended Okie State -28 but the Wynn and offshore shops went with a smaller spread.

    “I still think this line is too low,” Korner said. “Oklahoma State is just ripping on offense. Their drives are a minute-and-a-half long, and they’re all ending in points. They have a legitimate shot at doing something major for this program.”

    Nebraska (+2.5) at Michigan

    Give credit to the Cornhuskers for navigating some tough waters at Penn State on Saturday, and getting the heck out of town with a three-point win. Now, another road test awaits them in The Big House.

    Korner’s group sent out this game as a pick but Wynn went with Michigan as 2.5-point home faves.

    “Tough game to call. I still see the public betting Nebraska every week, so that plays a factor here,” Korner said. “I don’t expect much to change here. Nebraska got by Penn State in a tough game, and here comes another one.”

    Wisconsin (-14) at Illinois

    Most people believe that Wisconsin is still the Big Ten’s best team. They just need some wins, and some things to break right to be able to prove it in the conference title game. For now, though, they must take care of business vs. the Illini.

    “You never know what’s going to happen in college, and we’ve talked about that with Wisconsin in the past,” Korner said. “Yes, they lost some games. But just keep paying and let things fall into place sometimes. Wisconsin has done that, and here they are. On the road, to me, they control this one completely. This is all Wisconsin.”

    Cal (+20.5) at Stanford

    A little luster is off “The Big Game,” certainly. Oregon made sure of that, as the Cardinal are no longer undefeated. But, as with every upset, bettors always have a chance to lean on the bounce-back theory, right?

    “I took a little stand here, thinking these guys are going to take it out on Cal,” Korner, who recommend Stanford -22, said. “Again, this is another team that has to know that a big win can get them right back in the BCS mix.

    “We look at it this way: They are coming off a deflating loss, yes. But they’re not going to come out flat vs. their big rival, Cal, in ‘The Big Game.’”

    Mississippi State (+13.5) at Arkansas (Little Rock, Ark.)

    How good is the SEC West? The Razorbacks are Top 10 in the land, they’re whipping teams, and they’re in third place in the division. Indeed it is a tough crowd, but for betting purposes, know this: Arkansas still has plenty to prove, and should be able to name a score vs. the Bulldogs.

    The Wynn sees this as a tighter game than Korner’s group, which sent out Arkansas -17.

    “Yes, another big one for Arkansas. This is a team that has been playing really well, and a big win here can get them places,” Korner said. “They know to keep the score up, play well, and if things fall into place, you never know.”

    Penn State (+6.5) at Ohio State

    Wow, how hard is it to believe how far these two programs have fallen in such a short time? Unbelievable. And while there’s still talent on the field, it is clear that outside factors have crept into both locker rooms, and understandably so.

    That said -- as sad a statement as it may be for the Big Ten -- both teams have a shot at the conference title game. So, this one counts, folks.
    Korner’s line was shorter (Ohio State -4) than the Wynn but it sounds like he seems happy with his number.

    “This is not a great game, no matter how you look at it,” Korner said. “I won’t be watching it. Ohio State is fine here, we’re happy with the line, but Penn State can definitely win this one.”

    Boise State (-17) at San Diego State

    The Broncos fell off the national radar last week versus TCU, but the bounce-back factor looms large here for bettors. Might not be a good time to pounce, though because the Aztecs can play a little bit, too.

    “This is a team, with as good as they are, that has the respect of the pollsters, even after a loss,” said Korner, who sent out a bigger spread at Boise -20. “So, they’ve been around long enough to know to bounce back, keep on winning, and score plenty, and you’ll see if you can sneak back into the mix.”

    Oklahoma (-14) at Baylor

    Like Oregon, the door might be open for the Sooners to get back into the national title hunt. But after seeing what Oklahoma State did to Texas Tech, just how exactly did the Red Raiders beat these Sooners? A mystery.

    “This is a key number, 14,” Korner said. “It’s also a fair one as Oklahoma has got it back going, and they should be able to dictate the play here, all game.”

                What bettors need to know: Ball State at Northern Illinois
                ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                Ball State at Northern Illinois (-18.5), 8 p.m. ET, ESPNU

                Two first-year MAC coaches getting the most out of their teams collide Tuesday, when Northern Illinois hosts Ball State in chilly DeKalb, Ill.

                Dave Doeren, a former Wisconsin defensive coordinator, has the Huskies (7-3 SU, 5-5 ATS) in position to defend their MAC West Crown. Northern Illinois is ninth in the nation in both rushing offense (250.4 yards ppg.) and scoring offense (41.6 points).

                Pete Lembo’s Cardinals (6-4 SU, 6-4 ATS) have equaled their win total for the last two years combined, despite being ranked 118th in total defense.

                The seven weekday MAC games in November have averaged 76.28 points with five of the seven eclipsing the total.

                THE LINE

                The Huskies opened as 17-point favorites Sunday at the Las Vegas Wynn. But early money came in on Northern Illinois, pushing the line up to -18.5 by Monday morning. The Huskies have covered seven of their last eight home games as a favorite.

                RECENT HISTORY

                The Huskies went on the road and blasted Ball State 59-21 as 15.5-point favorites last season, with quarterback Chandler Harnish passing for 247 yards and two touchdowns.

                Northern Illinois has won five straight overall, including last Tuesday’s 45-14 pummeling of Bowling Green. The Huskies have covered the spread in four of their last five.

                Ball State also is surging down the stretch, having won three of four, including a 33-31 win at improving Eastern Michigan on Nov. 5. The Cardinals have covered the spread in four straight games.

                INJURY REPORT

                Northern Illinois will be without starting freshman linebacker Jamaal Bass (suspension). Freshman Michael Santacaterina started in place of Bass last week and played well.

                Ball State is not reporting any recent significant injuries.

                WEATHER

                Temperatures are expected to dip into the 30s around kickoff with a calming 12 mph NW wind.

                TRENDS

                Cardinals are 23-8 ATS as road underdogs and 30-11 ATS in last 41 road games overall.

                Most of Huskies’ ATS success has come against weaker competition. Northern Illinois is 5-11 ATS versus a team with a winning record.

                The over is 10-3 in Ball State’s last 13 conference games and 6-1 in Northern Illinois last seven games in November.

                  Instant replay: NCAAF and NFL betting recap

                  Each week, we’ll recap all the betting information you need to know from the college and pro football action that went down over the weekend.

                  NCAAF betting recap

                  It was a solid week for underdog bettors with the pups going 29-27 against the spread, with 15 underdogs winning outright.

                  Oregon was one of those underdogs and pulled off the biggest win of the weekend, pounding then No. 2 Stanford 53-30 as a 2.5-point pup on the road. The win moved the Ducks up three spots to No. 4 in the BCS standings. Stanford dropped all the way to No. 9 with the loss.

                  TCU did its part to shake up the BCS landscape as well, downing Boise State 36-35 as a huge 17-point underdog. That loss bumped the Broncos down to No. 10 in the BCS standings.

                  In the bad beat department, Memphis had a pair of 18-point leads over UAB and still couldn’t close out the deal. UAB put 24 points on the fourth quarter to slip by the Tigers 41-35 as a 5.5-point underdog.

                  The under finished 31-26 for the week.


                  NFL betting recap

                  From Tim Tebow’s two-completion victory over Kansas City to a couple of big meltdowns by a couple of high-profile teams, it was an interesting week in the NFL.

                  Underdogs were 8-7 against the spread ahead of Monday night’s Vikings-Packers contest and all eight of those pups won outright – seven of which came on the road.

                  Philadelphia was stunned 21-17 by the visiting Arizona Cardinals, who cashed in as fat 13.5-point favorites and Seattle shocked the Baltimore Ravens 22-17 as a 7-point underdog.

                  It looked as though under bettors would get through Sunday with a tidy profit before Sunday’s last four games on the schedule all played over their totals. The under was 8-7 in Week 10 heading into the Monday Nighter.

                  After the over dominated early this season, things are back to normal now. The over is 73-71 to date.

Five of last six Western games, six of last nine Miami games went over the total. Miami won/covered last three home games, winning by 7-28-32 points. Broncos allowed an average of 334.5 rushing yards in their last four games. Miami is 4-8-1 in its last 13 games as a home favorite. Western is 6-10-1 as a road underdog.

                    Ohio won three of its last four games against Bowling Green, winning by 24-7-11 points; Bobcats won last two visits here, 44-27/38-27.

                      Wednesday night MACtion: What bettors need to know
                      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                      Ohio at Bowling Green (+7, 57.5), 8 p.m. ET, ESPN

                      Ohio’s 49-25 beat down of Bowling Green last year was way worse that the score indicated.

                      Favored by nine, the Bobcats out-gained the Falcons 239-89 in the first half and led 28-3 at intermission.

                      A year has gone by, but Ohio is the more talented team this year and will bring an extremely balanced attack that is averaging 33 points. The Bobcats (7-3, 5-5 ATS) have won three straight, including Thursday’s 43-28 win at Central Michigan.

                      In contrast, Bowling Green (4-6, 5-5 ATS) has lost two straight by an average margin of 20.5 points. The Falcons were no match for Northern Illinois and surrendered 623 total yards to the Huskies on Tuesday.

                      Ohio has covered the spread in nine of its last 10 games in November under coach Frank Solich.

                      THE LINE

                      Ohio opened as a 7-point favorite at the Las Vegas Wynn on Sunday, but the number had dropped under the key number and was hanging around 6.5 as of Tuesday evening.

                      The total opened at 57.5 Tuesday and was holding steady.

                      WEATHER

                      Forecasts call for rain throughout the afternoon, but it is expected to stop by kickoff. Wind shouldn’t be much a factor.

                      INJURY REPORT

                      Bowling Green starting corner Jeffery Garrett, who missed the Northern Illinois game, is listed as questionable with a hamstring.

                      Ohio is reporting no recent impactful injuries.

                      TRENDS

                      Bowling Green has covered the spread in nine of the last 12 meetings with Ohio.

                      The Over is 9-1 in Ohio’s last 10 games in November.

                      Heading into Tuesday night’s Ball State-Northern Illinois games, the seven MAC games played in November had averaged



                      Western Michigan at Miami (OH) (-2, 58.5), 8 p.m., ESPN2

                      Pass-happy offenses collide, when one-dimensional Miami (OH) hosts Western Michigan in a MAC showdown between two teams fighting for bowl eligibility.

                      The RedHawks (4-6, 6-4 ATS), led by junior quarterback Zac Dysert, own the 20th-ranked pass offense, but also the 120th-ranked ground attack, which averages a puny 80 yards per game.

                      The Broncos (5-5, 6-4 ATS) aren’t much more balanced. Behind quarterback Alex Carder, WMU has the best passing offense in the MAC, averaging 333 yards through the air. But they’re 8th in the conference in rushing.

                      Western Michigan has played a decidedly tougher schedule. The RedHawks’ have the 118th-ranked strength of schedule; The Broncos are 60th.

                      THE LINE

                      The RedHawks opened as 1-point favorites at the Wynn on Sunday. The early money was on the home team, driving the line to -2, where it opened at most books.

                      Miami has performed well when facing teams with similar talent, covering the spread in five of its last six games as a favorite of three or less.

                      The total opened at 58.5.

                      HEAD-TO-HEAD

                      The two teams did not play last year. Western Michigan handled Miami, 48-28, as a 15.5-point favorite in 2009 and has won the last two meetings.

                      INJURY REPORT

                      Neither team is reporting any recent impactful injuries.

                      WEATHER

                      It will be chilly with temperatures in the 30s, but no precipitation or significant wind is forecast.

                      TRENDS

                      Under is 4-1 in RedHawks last five games in November and 5-2 in Western Michigan’s last seven games in November.

                      Western Michigan is 5-22-1 straight-up all-time in Oxford, Ohio.

                        Where the action is: Mid-week football line moves

                        For our weekly look at football lines on the move, we chatted up Todd Fuhrman, race and sportsbook analyst at Caesar's in Las Vegas. Here are some thoughts about why these odds are jumping around.

                        NCAAF

                        California at Stanford - Open: -20 Move: -17.5


                        This line reeks of last week – as in Stanford’s season-altering loss to Oregon.

                        This could be letdown city for Stanford and even more troubling when you consider it's the annual BIG GAME,” Fuhrman says. “Cal will be amped to take advantage of a Cardinal team who had their title dream's dashed last week against Oregon and one has to imagine Stanford could come out a little bit flat Saturday.”

                        Miami at South Florida - Open: +1.5 Move: -1

                        What a weird year it’s been for South Florida. After such a great start, the Bulls were terrible in October and nearly flushed their season down the drain. Now that a win Saturday will still make them bowl eligible, this game against Miami looms a lot larger.

                        “Miami has struggled away from home this season and now takes on a Bulls team that will see this as a chance to build on a strong Florida recruiting base,” Fuhrman says. “The Canes came up just short versus FSU last week and it's hard to imagine they bring similar intensity this week. Not exactly the public looking to back Skip Holtz's bunch in this game.”

                        Oklahoma at Baylor - Open: +14 Move: +15.5

                        The task for the Sooners is simple – win out for a shot at the BCS Championship game. They’ll have tons of supporters (as we’ve already seen by this line move), but this one could be interesting.

                        “The real question would be over/under 2.5 punts for Oklahoma if you ask me,” Fuhrman says. “RGIII should find plenty of looks downfield but the Bears defense could be in for a long day if OU's weapons are clicking on all cylinders. This has the potential for a good old fashioned shootout and the Sooners have a few more weapons suited for that kind of football game.”


                        NFL

                        Philadelphia at New York Giants - Open: -3 Move: -5


                        As if the Philadelphia Eagles didn’t have enough to worry about already, now Mike Vick has a couple of broken ribs and his status for Week 11’s tilt up in the air. That’s not to mention whatever is going on with DeSean Jackson or the 22.6 points per game the Eagles allow.

                        “This is pure injury steam around the Michael Vick injury situation,” Fuhrman says. “Even if Vick was 100 percent, I think -3 was way too low to open this number since the public's love affair with Philly has worn off following back-to-back clunkers. The Giants have a very difficult schedule coming up and if they're going to make a run at the division title it’s imperative for them to hold serve at home.”

                        Jacksonville at Cleveland - Open: 0 Move: -1

                        This line has been bouncing around pick ‘em since the opening and right now bettors seem to just be siding with the crappy home team as opposed to the crappy visiting team.

                        “Can either of these teams get to 10?” Furhman wonders. “ Two of the NFL's most anemic offenses won't be keeping the scoreboard operator on his toes this weekend. I figure there's some value with the home team at such a cheap price given the Jags inability to move the football consistently.”

                        Kansas City at New England - Total open: 48 Total move: 46

                        The Chiefs were a major offensive question mark with Matt Cassel under center, so now that Tyler Palko is taking the snaps, it’s understandable to see this total drop a bit.

                        “New England will definitely get their points on Monday but how does K.C. find the end zone?” Furhman asks. “Tyler Palko was once cut from a UFL roster and his biggest claim to fame is beating out Joe Flacco for the starter's job at Pitt during college. Kansas City hasn't moved the ball under Matt Cassel and there's no reason for me to believe they will with the QB change. I know the Pats defense isn't a brick wall but the Chiefs could be lucky to muster double digits this week.”

                          College football Top 25 betting cheat sheet: Week 12

                          Southern Miss Eagles at UAB Blazers (+23, 62.5)

                          Why Southern Miss will cover: USM is 7-1 ATS in its last eight, and UAB is outmatched in every phase, ranking in the bottom 25 in every defensive category.

                          Why UAB will cover: The Blazers may not win, but they can come close enough, going 6-2 ATS in their last eight. A passing game that ranks 54th has kept them around.

                          Points: USM should score big, and UAB is a good catch-up team.

                          North Carolina Tar Heels at Virginia Tech Hokies (-10.5, 47)

                          Why North Carolina will cover: The Hokies are just 2-7 ATS in their last nine. Virginia Tech likes to run, and UNC is 18th nationally at stopping it. The offense is good enough to keep the team in the game.

                          Why Virginia Tech will cover: The defense has stifled better offenses and the Hokies average 226 yards passing and 207 yards rushing, putting a lot of pressure on a mediocre UNC unit. Plus, who’s going to go against the Hokies at home, at night?

                          Points: The over has hit in three of UNC’s last four and is 3-1-1 for VT lately.

                          Oklahoma State Cowboys at Iowa State Cyclones (+26.5, 66)

                          Why Oklahoma State will cover: The Cowboys are on a roll ATS, 8-1 in their last nine. The offense, which ranks No. 2 in scoring and passing, has overwhelmed everyone, and ISU isn’t particularly great at stopping it. The Cyclones are 2-6 ATS in its last eight Big 12 games.

                          Why Iowa State will cover: The Cyclones can run the ball, averaging 183 ypg. Keeping OSU’s offense off the field is critical.

                          Points: Despite the high-scoring offense, the under has been the trend for OSU games, as well as ISU.

                          Indiana Hoosiers at Michigan State Spartans (-28.5, 53)

                          Why Indiana will cover: Michigan State prefers to throw more than run and Indiana, if it has a strength, it’s pass defense.

                          Why Michigan State will cover: MSU ranks 12th or higher in every defensive category, so it’s a mystery how the Hoosiers will get into the end zone. The Spartans offense has scored 28 or more four of the last five weeks.

                          Points: The over has hit in IU’s last five and in three of MSU’s last four.

                          Nebraska Cornhuskers at Michigan Wolverines (-2.5, 50.5)

                          Why Nebraska will cover: The Huskers are 12th in rushing and the defense has improved by leaps and bounds lately.

                          Why Michigan will cover: The Wolverines, meanwhile, are 13th in rushing. But unlike Nebraska (66th), Michigan is adept at also stopping the ground game, ranking 36th.

                          Points: The under is 6-2 when Michigan has been a favorite and has hit four straight for both teams. There’s going to be a lot of running the rock.

                          Wisconsin Badgers at Illinois Fighting Illini (+14, 52)

                          Why Wisconsin will cover: The Badgers control their own Big Ten destiny, and appear back on track after a two-week hiccup. They rank No. 4 in scoring (46.5 ppg) and No. 6 in scoring defense (15.8 ppg). They do half that well and they’ll cover.

                          Why Illinois will cover: The Illini has been solid at slowing down opponent rushing attacks. If they can do it and get their own ground attack going, anything can happen.

                          Points: The over has hit in six of the last eight meetings, though the under has hit in Illinois’ last four.

                          Kentucky Wildcats at Georgia Bulldogs (-30.5, 48)

                          Why Kentucky will cover: The Wildcats must win their final two games to become bowl eligible. They should at least give it their all. The defense is good enough to hang around.

                          Why Georgia will cover: Georgia should stifle UK’s offense in every way and its own balanced offense may simply be too much. The Bulldogs are 7-1 ATS in their last eight overall and as favorites.

                          Points: The under is 5-2 in UGA’s last seven but the over is 4-1 in UK’s last five.

                          Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Duke Blue Devils (+10.5, 55)

                          Why Georgia Tech will cover: Duke can only move the ball through the air, and GT’s defensive strength is slowing the pass (16th). Duke’s depth isn’t conducive to Tech’s punishing run attack.

                          Why Duke will cover: Four of Duke’s seven losses have come by 10 points or less. The team passes a lot.

                          Points: The under is 10-2-1 in Duke’s last 13 and hit in four straight for GT before last week’s over (by 1.5 points).

                          SMU Mustangs at Houston Cougars (-19.5, 77.5)

                          Why SMU will cover: While not as explosive as Houston, SMU can throw the ball (18th in passing) and has the potential to erupt.

                          Why Houston will cover: Houston is 5-0 ATS in its last five despite spreads of 24 or more the last four. The Cougars score fast and often and don’t let up.

                          Points: Houston has scored 56 or more four straight games, and SMU can do its part when it’s on.

                          Clemson Tigers at North Carolina State Wolfpack (+7.5, 52.5)

                          Why Clemson will cover: The Tigers have the firepower on offense to run away from the Wolfpack. And once they get a lead, their 20th-ranked pass defense will do the rest.

                          Why North Carolina State will cover: Clemson lost and barely won in its last two games after the strong start; perhaps NC State found a chink that can help keep the game close. The road team is 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings, for what it’s worth.

                          Points: The under is 4-0 in NC State last four.

                          Penn State Nittany Lions at Ohio State Buckeyes (-6.5, 39)

                          Why Penn State will cover: All distractions aside, the Lions’ defense stills ranks No. 3 in scoring (12.9 ppg) and No. 5 against the pass (167.7 ypg).

                          Why Ohio State will cover: The Buckeyes had won three in a row before last week’s debacle at Purdue. Still, OSU appears on the way up, and Penn State certainly does not.

                          Points: Both teams struggle mightily on offense, but that number is pretty low. The over has hit in OSU’s last three.

                          Colorado State Rams at TCU Horned Frogs (-33, 58)

                          Why Colorado State will cover: While the Rams haven’t been great, they’ve been in all but one game this season (Boise St.).

                          Why TCU will cover: TCU is 23rd in rushing (208 ypg), while CSU is 113th at stopping it. CSU is 2-9 ATS in its last 11.

                          Points: The over is 8-2 in TCU’s last 10, and is unlikely to be slowed on this day.

                          Mississippi State Bulldogs at Arkansas Razorbacks (-13, 53.5)

                          Why Mississippi State will cover: MSU’s defense is a solid 14th against the pass, matching up with Arkansas’ offensive strength. The Bulldogs are 4-0 ATS in their last four.

                          Why Arkansas will cover: The Razorbacks’ offense has run around the competition lately, and the team is 4-2 ATS in its last six. An underrated defense ranks 30th in points allowed, and MSU struggles to score anyway.

                          Points: The under is 6-2 in MSU’s last eight, but the over is 6-2 in Arkansas’ last eight.

                          Boston College Eagles at Notre Dame Fighting Irish (-24.5, 47.5)

                          Why Boston College will cover: The underdog is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings. B.C. will try to run the ball, shortening the game.

                          Why Notre Dame will cover: Notre Dame has no major strengths, but no major weaknesses, either. Boston College’s defense is ordinary, but the offense has been unproductive. Notre Dame faced similar spreads in two of its last three games, and covered both.

                          Points: The under is 5-0-1 in B.C.’s last six, and Notre Dame’s defense has improved of late.

                          LSU Tigers at Mississippi Rebels (+28.5, 46.5)

                          Why LSU will cover: Ole Miss has given up on the season and its coach, who has resigned effective at the end of the season. It’s hard to imagine the Rebels’ anemic offense scoring on the Tigers’ second-ranked defense.

                          Why Mississippi will cover: Maybe LSU comes in bored. Or maybe the Rebels’ new QB and RB – the usual starters are suspended – provide some spark.

                          Points: The under has been hitting for both teams of late.

                          Virginia Cavaliers at Florida State Seminoles (-17, 47)

                          Why Virginia will cover: The Cavs have covered in four of their last five, led by a ground game that milks the clock and a defense that’s allowed 13-21 points in five of the last six.

                          Why Florida State will cover: The Seminoles’ strengths — pass offense, run defense — match up perfectly with Virginia’s weaknesses — pass defense, run offense.

                          Points: The under is 7-1 in Virginia’s last eight, 3-0 in FSU’s last three and 8-0 in the last eight meetings.

                          Boise State Broncos at San Diego State Aztecs (+18.5, 55.5)

                          Why Boise State will cover: The Broncos have something to prove after the last-second loss to TCU. The Aztecs are 1-5 ATS in their last six.

                          Why San Diego State will cover: Boise State is faltering, 0-3 ATS in its last three. And the Aztecs do average 190 rushing and 218 passing per game.

                          Points: Boise State is due to for another breakout, and the over is 5-0 in its last five. SDSU can score, too.

                          USC Trojans at Oregon Ducks (-15.5, 67)

                          Why USC will cover: USC is 8-2 ATS in its last 10 on the road, and while Oregon’s run offense is great (fifth), USC’s run defense (eighth) is also strong. The Trojans’ passing game has the potential to overpower anyone.

                          Why Oregon will cover: The Ducks are 5-1-1 ATS, including last week’s beatdown of Stanford. USC’s pass defense is 100th, and Oregon’s offense will prevent the Trojans from focusing on one thing.

                          Points: It could be an entertaining shootout.

                          Oklahoma Sooners at Baylor Bears (+15.5, 75)

                          Why Oklahoma will cover: Oklahoma’s offense is just as powerful, and more balanced, than Baylor’s, and the defense is light years better. The road team is 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings.

                          Why Baylor will cover: Baylor’s passing offense is sixth nationally (357 ypg), while OU is 71st at stopping it. The Bears are just 1-3 on the road, but undefeated at home.

                          Points: Both teams should struggle to stop the other. The over is 6-1-1 for Baylor and 5-2 in OU’s last seven.

                          Kansas State Wildcats at Texas Longhorns (-9.5, 53.5)

                          Why Kansas State will cover: No ranked team has been more disrespected by the pollsters than K-State, but the Wildcats are 8-1 ATS in their last nine. The team can run the ball (22nd) and stop the run (26th), and it’s worked.

                          Why Texas will cover: The Longhorns are even better at running the ball (15th) and stopping the run (10th), and are at home, at night. Plus, Texas can also throw the ball and play pass defense, something K-State has been unable to do with consistency.

                          Points: Both teams can score, but both like to use a clock-draining ground game to do it.

                          California Golden Bears at Stanford Cardinal (-19, 55.5)

                          Why California will cover: Stanford still struggles to slow the pass, which is Cal’s strength on offense. The Bears are decent across the board on defense. Not great, but decent.

                          Why Stanford will cover: Stanford had covered every game until last week’s loss to Oregon. The Cardinal is stronger on both sides of the ball than the Bears, and should come out fired up.

                          Points: While Stanford has been hitting the over, the under is 7-0 in Cal’s last seven.

                              What bettors need to know: Thursday's Top 25 NCAAF action
                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                              Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles at UAB Blazers (+23, 61.5)

                              THE STORY
                              : No. 20 Southern Miss appears to be on a collision course with 10th-ranked Houston for the Conference USA Championship Game, but both teams still have work left to do. The Cougars have tough games remaining against SMU and Tulsa, while the Golden Eagles merely have to win one of their final two games against bottom-feeders Alabama-Birmingham and Memphis. Southern Miss has won eight straight games since a slip-up at Marshall in Week 2, which is tied for coach Larry Fedora’s longest winning streak since he took over in 2008.

                              Southern Miss won the first nine meetings in this series, but Alabama-Birmingham has claimed the last two games, including last season’s 50-49 double-overtime win.

                              TV: CBS Sports Network

                              LINE MOVES: Southern Miss opened at -21 and has been bet up to -23.

                              ABOUT SOUTHERN MISS (9-1, 5-1 Conference USA, 7-3 ATS): The Golden Eagles are off to their best start since 1962, and another win would be only their third 10-win season in school history and first since 1988. Last weekend, Southern Miss barely escaped with a 30-29 home win over Central Florida, which scored a touchdown as time expired but then failed on a two-point conversion that would’ve won the game. The Golden Eagles limited UCF to only 48 yards rushing, holding an opponent under 100 yards on the ground for the fifth time this season. Southern Miss is 20-1 all-time under Fedora when accomplishing that.

                              ABOUT ALABAMA-BIRMINGHAM (2-8, 2-5 Conference USA, 6-4 ATS): The Blazers snapped a two-game skid with a dramatic come-from-behind win at Memphis last weekend. Trailing 35-17 in the fourth-quarter, Alabama-Birmingham reeled off 24 unanswered points to win 41-35 and complete the biggest fourth-quarter comeback in school history. Jonathan Perry tossed two of his four touchdowns in the final period, and Greg Franklin scored on a 10-yard run that proved to be the game-winner with 1:36 left.

                              EXTRA POINTS:

                              1. After running back Bruce Johnson and wide receiver Chris Briggs notched their first touchdowns of the season last weekend, a school-record 21 different players have scored for Southern Miss in 2011.

                              2. Seven of the 11 games in this series have been decided by seven points or less, but the Golden Eagles are 6-1 in those games.

                              3. Southern Miss ranks 16th nationally in scoring offense (36.8), while the Blazers are 113th in scoring defense (37.2).

                              North Carolina Tar Heels at Virginia Tech Hokies (-10.5, 47)

                              THE STORY
                              : No. 7 Virginia Tech controls its own destiny in its pursuit of the ACC championship and the BCS Bowl berth that comes with the trophy. The Hokies made it through one test with a win at Georgia Tech last week and are currently one game ahead of rival Virginia in the ACC Coastal Division. With a visit to the Cavaliers on tap for next weekend, Virginia Tech must first sneak past a dangerous North Carolina team. The Tar Heels looked like they had a chance to make some noise in the ACC until running into a rough patch over the last month with losses in three of their last four games. North Carolina was shut out for the first time in five years on Nov. 5 but has had a bye week to prepare for the Virginia Tech offense. Hokies coach Frank Beamer will be looking for his 250th career win when the Tar Heels visits Blacksburg, Va., on Thursday.

                              TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN.

                              LINE MOVES: The Hokies opened as high as -11 and have been bet down to -10.5.

                              ABOUT NORTH CAROLINA (6-4, 2-4 ACC, 4-6 ATS): The Tar Heels expect to have quarterback Bryn Renner healthy on Thursday after the sophomore was knocked out of the 13-0 loss at North Carolina State with a concussion. Renner was coming off his first career 300-yard passing performance in a win over Wake Forest when he ran into trouble against the Wolfpack. North Carolina managed only three rushing yards against NC State and is 72nd in the FBS in rushing average at 144.8 yards.

                              ABOUT VIRGINIA TECH (9-1, 5-1, 3-7 ATS): The Hokies are aiming for a berth in their fourth ACC Championship game in the last five years. Beamer’s offense is running in high gear lately, going over 400 total yards in five straight, and is coming off a strong performance in a 37-26 victory over Georgia Tech. Sophomore quarterback Logan Thomas passed for three touchdowns and rushed for two more - the second time this season he has totaled five scores in a game.

                              EXTRA POINTS:

                              1. The Hokies are 25-2 in November games since 2004.

                              2. The last time the schools met on a Thursday in Blacksburg, the Tar Heels came away with a 20-17 victory in 2009.

                              3. Renner’s father, Bill, was a punter for Virginia Tech.

                              TRENDS:

                              * Under is 4-0 in the last four meetings.
                              * Road team is 5-0 ATS in their last five meetings.
                              * Tar Heels are 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall.
                              * Hokies are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games overall.

                              PREDICTION: Hokies 24, Tar Heels 14. Thomas will prove to be too much for the North Carolina defense.
