Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

-- Giants 45, Redskins 14-- Please shut up about the Giants' new offense.

-- Royals, Mariners won; Oakland lost; not a good night for the A's, whose hitters look like they're using wiffle ball bats.

-- Giants clinched a playoff spot when Milwaukee lost to the Reds.

-- Oklahoma State 45, Texas Tech 35-- Firing the defensive coordinator didn't do much to help Tech's defense.

-- UCLA 62, Arizona State 27-- Losing senior QB Kelly crippled ASU's season.

-- I must admit, I don't understand why the Ryder Cup is such a big deal. Do the people in Europe dislike us that much?

**********

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Things I'm looking for this weekend.....

13) Its last weekend of baseball season; the A’s have stumbled down the stretch, thank the lord Seattle has played worse. By Sunday night we should know the Wild Card matchups and how this year’s playoffs will line up. Looks like Pirates-Giants in NL Wild Card; Mariners are still fighting to make it in the AL.

12) Dolphins-Raiders are in London, as somehow Miami has a QB controversy, with coach Philbin refusing to endorse Ryan Tannehill as the long-term starting QB. Teams that play in England have their bye week right after, so Matt Moore could be getting the mod in Week 6, if he Dolphins struggle across the pond.

11) Ticket sales are lagging for Minnesota-Michigan in Ann Arbor, so much so that earlier this week, they were giving you two game tickets if you bought any two Coke items, including 20-ounce sodas. That’s two game tickets for $3.

They stopped it when national media got wind of it, but nothing gets a coach fired than rapidly declining attendance figures, which are attached to winning less.

10) 49ers have been outscored 52-3 in second half in their first three games, now they host the Eagles, who are 3-0 despite training all three games by 10+ points, first team ever to do that. If the 49ers get tired of Jim Harbaugh, the teams listed in notes 11-12 would probably love to take him off the Niners’ hands.

9) Earlier this month, Colorado played at UMass; this week, Colorado State visits Boston College. Why? Long road trips are becoming more common in college football. Has to be pretty expensive. Steve Addazio is doing a solid job rebuilding at BC, by the way.

8) Ryan Fitzpatrick was the Bills’ starting QB for parts of four seasons, now his Houston Texans host the Bills this week, with both teams coming off their first loss this season. Winner of this game will be excited to be 3-1.

7) Steve Spurrier was so annoyed with his kick coverage team last week, he said he’s coaching special teams this week for South Carolina; interesting game with Missouri here. Gamecocks’ defense hasn’t been very good so far. Mizzou got upset at home by Indiana last week, but they can score.

6) Steve Smith’s old team, the Panthers, visit his new team, the Ravens in a battle of teams who both lost a key player via domestic violence issues. Carolina went in the tank in the fourth quarter against Pittsburgh last week; with no Ray Rice, doubtful that Baltimore can pound them on the ground the way the Steelers did.

5) North Carolina gave up 70 points at East Carolina last week. 70. Now they go to Clemson, which is coming off a loss to Florida State’s backup QB. Tigers will go with freshman Watson under center; this could get ugly for the Tar Heels, unless they suddenly figure out how to tackle.

4) Florida State @ NC State—Jameis Winston is back playing this week; if I’m Jimbo Fisher, my lecture to ol’ Jameis last week would’ve had two key elements to it: a) When you’ve been cleared of rape charges, try not to yell out sexually explicit rap lyrics in public; people might get the wrong idea. b) Stay the hell off of cafeteria tables; if the table collapses with you on it and you break your arm, we both lose an awful lot of money.

3) When Adrian Peterson’s trial comes up, if I’m a lawyer trying the case, I have to ask prospective jurors if any of them are ticked off at AP because they drafted him in fantasy football and he ruined their team by getting suspended for the year. It’s a fair question; you ruin my fantasy football team, I’ll send your butt to jail, if I can. People can be weird. Vikings host Atlanta this week, by the way, with Falcons having three extra days to prep after their Thursday night win last week.

2) Georgia is 17-point favorite over Tennessee, biggest spread in this rivalry since at least 1980, when Herschel Walker announced his presence with authority by running over Bill Bates on his way to becoming a Bulldog icon. Vols are going to be pretty good eventually, but they’re too young right now.

1) Curious to see how bad New England’s offense is Monday night at Arrowhead. Oakland actually had the tying TD nullified by a penalty in last minute last week, then turned the ball over on the next play. Patriots lost five of their last six visits here, but Belichick is 4-0 vs Andy Reid.

Week 14

Alouettes leaving offense in Montreal

The Montreal Alouettes has been nothing short of a disaster this season, but bettors have been able to find a positive in the teams mediocrity. The Als have had six road games so far this season and they have gone under the total in five of them.

The under trend is thanks to the Als lack of offense as the team has averaged 13 points per game on the road this season.

Montreal travels to Ottawa with the total currently set at 47.

Roughriders bring their top game against top teams

With the West being such a powerhouse in the CFL, bettors have found some solace in the Saskatchewan Roughriders. The 'Riders have a stellar 7-1-2 against the spread record teams with winning records.

Saskatchewan will travel to Edmonton as 6-point dogs Friday.

MLB Final Weekend betting cheat sheet: Kazmir looks to end struggles
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here’s a comprehensive look at betting notes for the final weekend of the regular season:

Washington Whitewash

The Washington Nationals (-170, U 6.5) continued their sizzling Under streak Thursday, blanking the visiting New York Mets 3-0 behind seven innings of one-hit ball from Gio Gonzalez. The Nationals are 2-9 O/U in their last 11 games, allowing more than two runs just twice in that span.

Putting the K in Kluber

Cleveland ace Corey Kluber looks to rack up more strikeouts in his final start of the season as the Indians (-164, 6.5) host Tampa Bay. Kluber has 28 strikeouts in his last two starts; the Indians are 8-2 SU and 1-9 O/U in starts where Kluber records double-digit whiffs.

Rockies’ Road Woes

Colorado will try to avoid going out with a whimper as it resumes its season-ending series Saturday against the host Los Angeles Dodgers. The Rockies are an astounding 6-36 SU in their last 42 games away from Coors Field, scoring more than four runs just four times over that stretch.

Favorites Finish Strong

Expect the usual suspects to prevail as the regular season draws to a close Sunday. Favorites are 33-13 SU over the previous three years, winning at a 71.7-percent clip that far exceeds the 2014 regular-season average of 57 percent.

Pitching Notes

* Oakland lefty Scott Kazmir will look to end his recent struggles Friday as he leads the Athletics (-167, 8) against the host Texas Rangers. Kazmir has allowed six or more runs in four of his previous six starts to see his season ERA balloon to 3.63.

* Masahiro Tanaka ends his rookie season against a familiar foe as his New York Yankees take on the host Boston Red Sox. Tanaka faced the Red Sox twice in his first major-league campaign and recorded a pair of wins, including a complete-game seven-hitter on June 28.

* A fantastic season comes to an end Sunday for St. Louis Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright. The veteran right-hander (20-9, 2.38 ERA) enters the weekend 13th in starter value ($1,015) and hasn’t allowed a run in back-to-back starts; he’ll face visiting San Diego on Sunday.

Hitting Notes

* Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Edwin Encarnacion is ending the season on a high as he prepares to face the visiting Baltimore Orioles (-105, 8) on Friday. Encarnacion is batting .391 with two homers, 11 RBIs and a 1.160 OPS over the last seven days.

* Expect a big game from Chase Utley on Saturday as his Philadelphia Phillies tangle with Aaron Harang and the Atlanta Braves. Utley is a .406 career hitter against Harang, with four doubles, a home run and six RBIs over 32 at-bats.

* It could be a long day for Los Angeles Angels hitters on Sunday as they wrap up their regular season against Seattle ace Felix Hernandez and the host Mariners. Members of the Angels roster are hitting a combined .208 with 115 strikeouts in 432 combined at-bats versus Hernandez.

Totals Streak

Los Angeles Dodgers (14-2-2 O/U): The Dodgers are ending the season with a bang, having either scored or allowed seven or more runs in 10 of their last 13 games. The season-ending Over surge has moved Los Angeles to 80-70-9 entering the final weekend of the 2014 campaign.

Prop of the Day

Bettors may want to consider a lower line for Friday’s matchup between the Rays and Indians, with Under 5 paying +200. Kluber has been one of the stingiest pitchers in baseball since the All-Star Break, while counterpart Chris Archer has allowed just four runs over his last three starts.

Injury Notes

* Washington Nationals outfielder Denard Span (knee) will return to the lineup for Friday’s doubleheader against the visiting Miami Marlins. It isn’t clear whether Span, who suffered the injury Tuesday night, will play one or both ends of the twin bill.

* White Sox outfielder Avisail Garcia left Thursday’s game against Kansas City with lower back stiffness and will sit out Friday. Garcia missed a whopping 113 games from early-April to mid-August with a shoulder injury; Chicago was 54-59 SU, 56-54-3 O/U and +651 units in that span.

Weather Watch

* Fans at AT&T Park should expect winds blowing out to right-center field at 11 mph for Friday’s game between the host Giants (-147, 6.5) and San Diego. Teams averaged 1.43 home runs while batting .262 in 23 games under similar conditions in 2013, slightly above stadium averages.

* Dodger Stadium will see wind blowing out to center field at 7 mph Saturday when Los Angeles welcomes Colorado to town. Teams averaged nearly two home runs per game with the wind blowing out to center a season ago, well above the park average of 1.65.

Over has big night on the diamond

Though it will always be remembered as Derek Jeter's last game at Yankee Stadium, Thursday was also a successful day for bettors. In 12 games on the MLB slate, the over paid out in nine of them (75 percent).

Teams scored an average of 9.5 runs per game with seven games hitting double digits.
