Los Angeles Dodgers Series
The Los Angeles Dodgers surprised us by going through the great St. Louis Cardinals pitching staff so easily, and they are now our choice to advance to the World Series by defeating the Philadelphia Phillies in the NLCS.
This is a rematch of the 2008 NLCS, when the Phillies advanced in five games, but there is a big difference between last year and this season. Remember that Cole Hamels, Brett Myers and Joe Blanton were all pitching out of their minds last year, and Brad Lidge did not blow a save all year.
However, this Philadelphia staff is simply not that intimidating. Hamels had a very disappointing season, and he was the only Phillie to lose a game in the NLDS vs. the Colorado Rockies, and Lidge went from not blowing any saves to leading the Major Leagues in blown saves this season. Other than the newly acquired Cliff Lee, who is truly a stud, the rest of the Philadelphia staff does not really impress us.
As for the Dodgers, sure, their starters do not look as good as they did earlier in the year, but Clayton Kershaw has looked great since returning from his injury, Vicente Padilla has been a pleasant surprise and opening day starter Hiroki Kuroda should be back for this series. On top of that, the Dodgers excellent bullpen ERA of 3.18 was the best in the Major Leagues by a wide margin, as the San Francisco Giants finished well back in second at 3.50.
Remember that pitching means everything in a short series and the Dodgers appear to be better equipped at this time, unless Hamels suddenly rediscovers his 2008 form. Game 1 of this series this becomes more critical that usual, and if the Dodgers can prevail at home vs. Hamels, we will love our chances of cashing this ticket.

Philadelphia Phillies @ Los Angeles Dodgers
Play: Los Angeles Dodgers -$137
I'm not sold on Philadelphia starting pitcher Cole Hamels. Hamels has hardly pitched like an ace of the staff this season. I would not be surprised at all to see the Dodgers get to him early and often. The Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw has been lights out at home this season and should do a good job against all of the left handed hitting of Philadelphia. The Phillies hit just .214 against the Dodgers in seven games this season which was Philadelphia's second lowest average against any NL team this year. I look for the Dodgers to take game one of this NLDS. Play on Los Angeles.

Cincinnati Bearcats at South Florida Bulls
Prediction : UNDER 48.5
The Bearcats have gone under in 16 of 19 October games over the years and have several solid under indicators that apply to them tonight. On Thursday nights Cincinnati has been an under team going under all 8 times. When installed as road favorites of 3 or less they have cashed 5 of 6 unders and 12 of 15 times when the line is +3 to -3 overall. Both teams have solid defenses. This should be a lower scoring game. For those interested in the side I have a Double Angle Power stat that applies to tonights game,plus a big bases sequence scenario side. Jump on and cash out big tonight in Big east Play.

Coming into 2009, nobody expected Cincinnati to have a chance at winning the Big East and certainly didn’t expect the team to be undefeated after five games. Both doubts have come to fruition and the Bearcats have hopes of taking its second straight conference title. Even after losing 10 starters on defense, head coach Brian Kelly has orchestrated the No. 10 scoring defense in the country that yields a mere 13.8 ppg. The offense has been just as spectacular with Bearcats’ senior signal-caller Tony Pike transforming into one of the premier passers in college football. Pike leads the No. 3 scoring offense (42.0 ppg) and ranks No. 9 nationally in pass efficiency with a 159.9 passer rating (13 TDs, 3 INTs). Assisting in that department is wideout Mardy Gilyard. The senior has hauled in 38 balls for 517 yards and seven scores this season and should certainly be a first-day NFL Draft pick this offseason. This Cincinnati teams loves to throw the ball and gives Pike plenty of time having only surrendered four sacks all season. One concern for the Bearcats is managing the clock. Against Fresno State, Cincinnati only possessed the ball 16 minutes and versus Miami Ohio only 19 minutes. While a team doesn’t always have to win the TOP battle to be successful (especially with Cincy’s defense), controlling the clock can be beneficial when playing comparable teams like South Florida. Bearcats’ senior linebacker Curtis Young, who is the leader of the defense, is expected to return after missing the last three games after having knee surgery. The hybrid linebacker who can line up at defensive end, posted 9.5 tackles and a sack in the first two games.
When senior quarterback Matt Grothe tore his ACL in Week 3 and would miss the remainder of the season, everyone removed South Florida from the Big East contender equation. The Bulls hadn’t played a legit opponent and was facing Florida State the fourth week of the season with redshirt freshman B.J. Daniels making his first collegiate start. USF went to Tallahassee and shocked the Seminoles 17-7 behind the young quarterback. That marquee win looked great after FSU throttled BYU, but now not so much as the ‘Noles are struggling yet again. Daniels is a serviceable quarterback who can beat you with his arm and legs. He scrambled for 126 yards against FSU and 105 in the previous game. Emotional head coach Jim Leavitt isn’t putting too much pressure on the inexperienced QB, having only thrown a maximum of 21 passes in three games so far. The Bulls struggled with Syracuse through first half last week, only leading 14-13 at the break. And now the team will get a taste of its first real defense. It’s a good thing USF has a very good defense to counter. They have the No. 10-ranked total defense (263.0 ypg) and are giving up less than 10 points per outing. Led by a pursuant front four with defensive end George Selvie and tackle Terrell McClain, the Bulls are averaging almost three sacks per. In last week’s affair, USF forced the Orange into seven turnovers (5 INTs). But on the flip side, Tony Pike is a little more experienced than former Duke point guard Greg Paulus so don’t expect to see the Bulls’ defense to have as much success. Safety Jerrelle Young is questionable for the game after suffering a broken arm in Week 1 of the season. The secondary is already thin and will remain that way unless Young can play.
Coach Leavitt and Brian Kelly are intense coaches that will have their aggressive defenses geared up for this one. Both teams are coming off idle weeks so plenty of time to prepare for the conference matchup. The Bulls and Bearcats defenses are opportunistic with both in the Top 10 in the nation in turnover margin. The USF pass defense only gives up 158.2 ypg, but Pike’s short, quick passes over the middle can rack up a lot of yards in a hurry and the last two QBs South Florida has faced each have thrown for more than 250 yards. Last year’s contest between these two was a defensive battle, which could be expected again, with Cincy coming out on top 24-10. The Bearcats are tied for first place in the country in sacks, averaging more than 4.0 per game. Cincinnati should be able to fluster the freshman Daniels into a few turnovers, testing the USF offensive line (which lost four starters from a season ago) and winning a tough one in Tampa.

1500* - Cincinnati Bearcats
Both schools come in at 5-0 straight up, both schools last played on October 3rd, so who comes out on top tonight?
At 1st glance, South Florida looks like an attractive home dog under the primetime lights, but non-lined wins against Wofford, Western Kentucky, and Charleston Southern make the Bulls 5-0 record look a little more like a paper-tiger than a real tiger with teeth.
The Bearcats have played the tougher schedule, and this Brian Kelly is a no-bullshit coach!
Cincinnati has won the last 3 series meetings, and they have covered the last 5 in this series.
True, the Bulls red-shirt QB Daniels has done well filling in for Groethe, and true the Bulls defensive coordinator held the same position with Cincinnati before Brian Kelly replaced him, but that just won't be enough against this Bearcats team.
No issue laying a few points here, as Cincy senior QB Pike has been on-fire this year through the air, and I have a feeling he will find a way to get his team in the winner's circle both straight up, and against the spread.
I am going with Cincinnati minus the small road chalk to continue on in their quest for perfection.
