IC NCAAF PLAY OF THE DAY: OKLAHOMA vs TULSA
Play: Tulsa (POD) +23.5
Comments: IC NCAAF PLAY OF THE DAY: Tulsa (POD) +23.5 Let this baby keep rising. It seems the whole world is on Oklahoma here but is truly warranted? So they beat Miami at home in Norman. Congrats. They also pummeled Utah State, congrats. However, now they go on the roda to play a Tulsa team that has an offense to at least keep this game competitive. It continues to amaze me how much Oklahoma is inflated each year. They are a very good team, however, playing on the road against a Golden Hurricane team that has a quarterback in Paul Smith who has equivalent numbers to Sam Bradford, and to be giving Smith and the Hurricanes an essentially 24 point cushion as this line will continue to rise is a bit remarkable. The Tulsa fans will be into this game, and we will see just how good these Sooners are on the road, in their first contest away from home with this group of playres facing a Tulsa team that feel they have the offensive to match up with nearly anyone. I'll gladly take the points as the Sooners are 1-4 ATS as road favorites greater than double-digits, the Golden Hurricanes are 6-1 ATS as a double-digit dog or greater and Tulsa is 9-3 ATS vs. a team with a winning record. This team surprised BYU and will be competitive in this game as Oklahoma is likely to walk away as a 2 touchdown winner.
IC MLB: PITTSBURGH vs CHICAGO CUBS
Play: Pirates/Cubs Under 12
Comments: IC MLB
irates/Cubs Under 12: This line continues to rise in some places and I don't think it's warranted. Frankly, I think the steam is not warranted whatsoever. Pitt has lost 6 straight and their offense has been lacking. Malhom got roughed up at Houston in his last start. This means he is horrible and is going to get roughed up in Chicago? Keep in mind before that start he went on the road to Coors against a very good Rockies team and gave up 1 run in 7 innings. He then gave u p just 2 runs to the Reds at home. In 7 innings against the Cubs he gave up just 5 hits in his last start as if he cuts down on his walks, he should be fine in this game. Marquis has pitched 3 of 4 quality starts and 6 straight unders. Cubs need a big game from him and he is on a bounce-back after getting roughed up against Pitt last time out. Under is 6-0 in Marquis's last 6, under is 5-1 for the Cubs when the total is set this high and the under is 4-1 in the last 5 games between these 2 teams.
IC MLB: BALTIMORE vs TEXAS
Play: O's/Rangers Under 11
Comments: IC MLB: O's/Rangers Under 11: These 2 ERA's will not reflect the way these guys pitch today. The bottom line here is Santos will not want to get sent back down to triple AAA, he needs a big start, the Rangers have not been hitting the ball well, Mendoza was pitching very well before he took some time off for an injury and now he is back and he will pitch well against an O's team that will face him for the first time and limited work has not had too much success against him. The under is 11-2 when the Rangers are home favorites, under is 4-0 in the last 4 games between these 2 teams in texas and the under is 4-1 when the Rangers face a total of 11 or higher
