San Francisco-Ohio State

Press Notes

USF is 2-1 after suffering its
first loss of the season to 4-0 Fresno
State
Friday night at Memorial
Gymnasium. Monday’s opponent Ohio State
has won all four of its previous contests with an average margin of victory of
25.3 points. The closest game they have had was an 87-75 win over Loyola of
Chicago while their biggest win was a 37 points win over VMI
(107-69). The Buckeyes are shooting 56.1 percent as a team to 38.2% for its
opponents. Ohio State

San Diego-Loyola

Press Notes

Loyola is 10-2 at home versus non-conference opponents.
The Ramblers have won eight straight home games versus non-Horizon League foes
and are 16-3 in their last 19 contests at the Gentile
Center
. Loyola went 13-3 at the Gentile
Center
a year ago to set a record
for most home wins in a single campaign since the building opened for the
1996-97 season. For the first time since 1980-81, Loyola has been picked to win
the Horizon League title in the annual preseason poll of the League’s coaches,
sports information directors and media. In addition, the Ramblers were also
picked as Horizon League favorites by Athlon, Street &
Smith and Lindy’s. Loyola is coming off of a 19-win season, its best showing
since going 27-6 and advancing to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen in 1984-85. Through
its first four contests, Loyola is knocking down shots at a .505 (108 for 214)
clip from the field. In their three victories, the Ramblers have connected on
.533 (81 for 152) of their attempts from the field but hit only .435 (27 for
62) in a loss to No. 7 Ohio State. A year ago, Loyola led the Horizon League
with a .455 field-goal percentage. MasterLockLine.com has the top plays from the top

NFL

Giants-Jaguars

Journal News

The Jacksonville Jaguars have been one of the league’s
most up-and-down teams. They own the league’s fourth-best overall defense, and
the fifth-best passing defense. And yet, they suffered high-scoring losses to
Washington, 36-30 in overtime, and Houston, 27-7. On the other hand, the
Jaguars (5-4) proved in a 41-0 win over the Jets that they can score points in
bulk. The Giants (6-3), with an offense that has averaged 23.8 points per game
– ninth best in the league – could find themselves in a shootout. The Giants
could go into the game missing six starters, with possibly linebacker Carlos Emmons
(groin) and running back Tiki Barber (thumb) working
at reduced capacity.

Sunday NFL Notes

Redskins-Buccaneers

Washington Post

Washington Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss will miss
tomorrow’s game at Tampa Bay
with a left hamstring injury that kept him out of practice this week. Moss
suffered the injury Oct. 22 at Indianapolis,
and even though the Redskins had a bye week following that game, Moss did not
play in the Redskins’ 22-19 victory over Dallas
on Nov. 5. In Sunday’s 27-3 loss at Philadelphia,
Moss clearly was not himself, catching three balls for 17 yards. Moss is the
Redskins’ leading receiver this season, with 31 catches for 452 yards and three
touchdowns. All three of his touchdowns came in the same game, a 36-30 overtime
win over Jacksonville. His
frustration regarding the injury is mounting, especially because quarterback
Jason Campbell will make his debut tomorrow without the team’s best wide
receiver and best running back, Clinton Portis, who
was placed on injured reserve earlier in the week. Redskins Coach Joe Gibbs
said there was a “slim hope” that Moss would play and that it would be a
game-time decision. MasterLockLine.com has the top plays from the top
sports service in their highest ranked sports.

Patriots-Packers

JS Online

Quarterback Brett
Favre
might be at less than full strength Sunday when the Green Bay
Packers meet the New England Patriots at Lambeau Field. Coach Mike McCarthy disclosed that Favre had
suffered a groin injury Thursday during practice, an injury that the coach said
“really bothered” Favre as he took some but not all of the repetitions with the
No. 1 offense Friday. Favre had been listed as probable on the injury report with
an ankle injury. The Packers now list him as probable with ankle and groin
injuries. McCarthy was asked if he was at all worried about Favre and his
ability to move Sunday. “No,” he replied. “I’ve talked to him at length today.
He doesn’t think it’s a big deal.” It isn’t certain if wide receiver Greg Jennings (ankle) will start but
McCarthy said he expected the rookie to play more than Ruvell Martin.Tight
end David Martin (shoulder,
thigh) and cornerback Will Blackmon (rib)
returned to practice Friday. Martin will play. Blackmon remained doubtful.Defensive tackle Cullen Jenkins (ankle) was downgraded from probable to
questionable after taking Friday off. Running back Vernand Morency (back) will play and probably
return kickoffs. Fullback Brandon Miree (elbow) practiced Friday, struggled and isn’t
expected to play. For the Patriots, the only players definitely out are
starting safeties Rodney Harrison (shoulder)
and Eugene Wilson (hamstring).
Game-time decisions probably will determine the availability of guard Stephen Neal (shoulder) and cornerback
Asante Samuel (knee). Neal has missed the
last three games but appears close to playing. Samuel finished the last game
but didn’t practice all week. If Samuel cannot play, the Patriots probably
would move safety Chad Scott back
to cornerback and start James Sanders at
strong safety. Sanders, a fourth-round draft choice in 2005,
has
played sparingly from scrimmage and, when he has played, has been
ineffective. Joe Duffy’s sports betting selections are at www.GodsTips.com

Boston Globe

The Patriots should be closer to full strength when they
take on the Packers tomorrow – defensive end Ty
Warren is expected to play. Warren
missed the first game of his career last week against the Jets with what was
listed as a bad shoulder. While Warren
has been seen with both shoulders wrapped in recent weeks, sources say he
missed the Jets game because of a strained right calf. The team feared he might
tear it if he attempted to play. His importance to the defense was never more
apparent than last week, when the Jets ran for over 100 yards and the Patriots
were forced to shuffle their defensive line, moving Richard Seymour from his
comfortable right end spot to Warren’s
left. Jarvis Green, a right-side player, took Seymour’s
spot. Warren, a fourth-year player out of Texas A&M,
is in the midst of his best season. He recorded 43 tackles, two sacks and a
safety in his first eight games, and remains on course to set career highs in
every defensive category. If he plays the second half like he did the first,
he’ll deserve serious All-Pro consideration. Stevie Vincent’s BetOnSports360.com is pioneer in forensic
handicapping and part of OffshoreInsiders.com

Colts-Cowboys

New York Times

The defense has been decimated by injuries. The run
defense, which was ranked in the middle of the N.F.L.
at the end of last season, is the lowest ranked in the league, allowing more
than 5 yards a rush. The defense is yielding 49 more rushing yards a game than
last season. There is a rookie running back, Joseph Addai,
replacing the departed Edgerrin James. The offense has been limited in its use
of three-receiver plays because of an injury to receiver Brandon Stokely. The Colts have already needed fourth-quarter
comebacks in three games to remain unbeaten, and their average margin of
victory is 6.6 points — nearly 10 points less than their margin of victory
during their 13-0 start last season. Only two victories this season have come
by double digits; 9 of the first 13 last year were by double digits. And the
Colts have already had two 1-point victories this season. That did not happen
at all last season. By popular request, check out our new “Bet It

Falcons-Ravens

Atlanta Journal Constitution

In a game that
could end a losing streak or leave them with a .500 record, the Falcons could,
at times, field a defensive line Sunday at Baltimore with two undrafted rookies
and two second-year players . Atlanta has lost both starting defensive ends
(John Abraham and Patrick Kerney), two defensive backs (Jason Webster and Kevin
Mathis) and having to replace both offensive guards (Kynan Forney and Matt
Lehr) as the Falcons have. The Falcons (5-4) are left having to count on three
players who never started an NFL game until this season and 11 undrafted
players to rescue a season that, once again, started well but has leveled off
and is at a crossroads. Approved
sportsbooks are at

Steelers-Browns

Post Gazette

Steelers Troy Polamalu went
through an entire practice for the first time this week without difficulty and,
barring some type of setback, should play Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. “He’s
gotten better each day,” coach Bill Cowher said of his two-time Pro Bowl safety. Also, center Jeff Hartings
(knee/questionable), who has missed the past two games, practiced for the
second day in a row and likely will play in Cleveland.

Raiders-Chiefs

San Francisco
Chronicle

Raiders coach Art Shell isn’t saying, but all indicators
point to Aaron Brooks taking over as the starting quarterback Sunday against
the Kansas City Chiefs. Brooks took the majority of first-team snaps at
practice Friday, according to a person who watched practice. Shell said he won’t
announce his starter until game day. Brooks, signed in
the offseason and named the starter in training camp, has been out with a
strained pectoral muscle near his right throwing shoulder since the first
quarter of Week 2’s game at Baltimore.
He ran the scout team offense last week, then declared himself
fit to play this week as he shared first-team snaps with Andrew Walter. Friday,
the team’s final practice before boarding a plane for Kansas
City
, was the first time he got most of the work with
the starters. Joe Duffy’s sports betting selections are at www.GodsTips.com Walter,
a third-round draft pick last year, is 2-5 as a starter with the NFL’s
worst-rated total offense and passing offense. He threw nine interceptions
versus three touchdowns for the league’s lowest quarterback rating. Chiefs
coach Herm Edwards, who named Trent Green his starter this week, thought Brooks
would start all along, and prepared for as much.

Rams-Panthers

St. Louis Today

The Carolina Panthers seemed poised for greatness this
season, topping many a preseason list as the team most likely to represent the
NFC in Super Bowl XLI. Yet they prepare to face the Rams with a record of 5-4,
one of eight teams in the conference within a game of .500. The Panthers
entered the opener without wide receiver Steve Smith, who led the NFL last year
in receiving yards and tied for the lead in receptions and receiving TDs but suffered a hamstring injury in camp. Before the end
of their 20-6 loss to Atlanta, the
Panthers had lost two starters on the offensive line. MasterLockLine.com has the top plays from the top
sports service in their highest ranked sports.
Center Justin Hartwig has played in just one game since then and was
listed as out for Sunday. Left tackle Travelle
Wharton was placed on the injured-reserve list. The losses have been felt most
keenly in Carolina’s running game.
The Panthers hoped that DeShaun Foster and rookie
DeAngelo Williams would form a 1-2 punch to soften defenses for the passing
game. Instead, Carolina is ranked
28th in rushing yardage. Foster has gained 588 yards, 19th
in the NFL. Williams has just 158 yards but has missed almost four games
because of an ankle injury. Perhaps more devastating was the concussion
suffered in the opener by middle linebacker Dan Morgan. He was inactive for the
next four games, then was placed on injured reserve.
The defense ranks in the middle of the pack in rushing, passing and total yards
allowed, though defensive end Julius Peppers has stood out. Peppers
leads
the league with 11 sacks and was named defensive player of the
month for October. The Panthers lost their first two games but reeled off four
consecutive victories with Smith’s return.

Bengals-Saints

Cincinnati Enquirer

Starting right guard Bobbie Williams had an emergency
appendectomy Wednesday afternoon and is out for the game Sunday at New Orleans.Since signing as a free agent before the 2004
season, Williams has started 42 consecutive games. Playing alongside tackle
Willie Anderson, Williams is a key part in the Bengals’ power run game. The Bengals
played the past four games with the same starting line after juggling the
quintet the first five games because of injuries to starting left tackle Levi
Jones and starting center Rich Braham. Backup Eric Ghiaciuc
has started six games at center, and rookie backup Andrew Whitworth four at
left tackle and two at left guard.

Giants-Jaguars

New York Times

Using the same 11 starters from last season, the unit
glided through the early stages of this season. It featured an array of star
players swirling around the nucleus of an underrated offensive line, usually
moving downfield. Now, in the second half of the season, there is concern. Left
tackle Luke Petitgout and wide receiver Amani Toomer are on injured
reserve. The Giants’ offense has become less a model of cool efficiency and
more a contraption of fits and starts. The Giants (6-3) averaged 27.2 points in
their first six games, but 17 in their past three. Now they are headed south to
play the Jacksonville Jaguars (5-4) on Monday night. The Jaguars have allowed
14.1 points a game, third lowest in the N.F.L.

CFB

Ohio State-Michigan

Detroit News

As the second-ranked Wolverines prepare to face the
top-ranked Buckeyes on Saturday at Ohio Stadium, they enter with a hard-nosed
defense that leads the nation against the run (29.9 yards). They’re third in
total defense (231.4). The Buckeyes, however, present a challenge. They rank
first in the Big Ten and eighth nationally in scoring offense (35.8 points),
and are directed by quarterback Troy Smith, the Heisman Trophy frontrunner. Michigan
knows Smith. He burned them the last two seasons in Ohio
State
victories, gaining 337 yards
total offense last season and 386 in 2004. Because the defensive front—featuring
Woodley, who has a Big Ten-high 11 sacks, and tackle Alan Branch, who has had
five tackles for loss—is so athletic, the Wolverines believe the attacking
nature of the front four is enough to wreak havoc. They have 41 sacks and are
second nationally (3.6 average). Last year, they had 24 in 12 games. (Ohio
State
, by the way, has only allowed
13 sacks.) English credits offensive coordinator Mike DeBord
for some of the success the defense has enjoyed this season. Michigan
leads the nation in time of possession (34.11 average), and the offense has
been on the field 82 more plays than the defense. By popular request, check out

Buffalo-Wisconsin

JS Online

A week ago, University
of Wisconsin
coach Bret Bielema knew
quarterback John Stocco
would not play against Iowa.
This week, Bielema believes his fifth-year senior
might be able to play in UW’s regular-season finale Saturday against Buffalo.“He has really made a lot of gains in the last five
days,” Bielema said Thursday night after practice. Stocco, who suffered a separated right shoulder two weeks
ago against Penn State,
threw the football in practice Wednesday. On Thursday, he passed the ball and
worked on handoffs. If Stocco is cleared to play in
his final home game, that decision will be made sometime Saturday. Joe Duffy’s
sports betting selections are at www.GodsTips.com   

San Diego State-TCU

Sign On San Diego

San Diego State
coach Chuck Long said yesterday that junior Kevin O’Connell, who missed six
straight games after being injured in the season opener, will start at
quarterback for the Aztecs.  Redshirt
freshman Kevin Craft, who has started the past five games, will also play, Long said.  Long said
junior free safety Ray Bass, who earned Mountain West Conference Defensive
Player of the Week honors for his performance against UNLV,
will make his second consecutive start in place of senior Brett Sturm (ankle).
He (O’Connell) has shown more production lately,” Long said. “He’s earned
this.”

Arizona-Oregon

Arizona Republic

The Wildcats have won back-to-back games against Top 25
opponents, including a 24-20 victory over No. 8 California Saturday. After
consecutive 3-8 seasons, 5-5 Arizona
is one win away from bowl eligibility with two games remaining. Last season,
five of the losses were by seven points or fewer. This season, the Wildcats are
playing with more confidence, which explains how they overcame a 17-3 halftime
deficit against the Golden Bears. If there’s a defining moment in what Stoops
has done for this program, that game was it. Stevie Vincent’s BetOnSports360.com is pioneer in forensic
handicapping and part of OffshoreInsiders.com
   

Connecticut-Syracuse

Hartford Courant

Keeping an eye on the statuses of wide receiver Larry
Taylor and cornerback Darius Butler for Saturday’s game at Syracuse.
Taylor sustained a blow to the head
in last Saturday’s 46-45 double overtime victory over Pittsburgh.
Butler injured a hamstring in the
same game. Backup running back Terry Caulley, who had
surgery on a broken left ring finger Monday, will be out as well as offensive
lineman Mike Hicks, who sustained an ankle and knee sprain against Pittsburgh.
Lou Allen will back up Donald Brown at running back with redshirt freshman
Andre Dixon behind them. MasterLockLine.com has the top plays from the top

Washington-Washington State

Seattle Times

Cougars wide receiver Jason Hill
won’t play in the Apple Cup, but slot receiver Michael Bumpus
might. WSU coach Bill Doba
said Bumpus will dress for the game and might be able
to play. He is unlikely to start and won’t be used as a punt returner. Hill and Bumpus
suffered high ankle sprains Nov. 4 against Arizona.
No change on the quarterback front for UW. Willingham said quarterback Carl Bonnell has looked good in practice and will start. Johnny DuRocher has not practiced and won’t play, but will likely
make the trip. And Willingham confirmed that receiver Sonny Shackelford has
been working as the emergency quarterback behind new backup Felix Sweetman. • Willingham said Jason Wells has progressed to
the point he could start at free safety Saturday ahead of Hemphill, who has
started the past two games. Wells was running with the first team during
practice Thursday. • RB Luke Kravitz,
out the past three games with a knee injury, “may also be able to see some
action,” Willingham said. More questionable is DT Donny Mateaki,
struggling with a calf injury.

Tennessee-Vanderbilt

Tennessean

Tennessee’s
offense needs a lift. That’s where LaMarcus Coker
comes in. After a speedy recovery from a sprained medial collateral ligament in
his left knee, the Vols’ redshirt freshman tailback
from Antioch returned to the field in Saturday’s 31-14 loss at Arkansas.In his first game back, Coker came off the bench
to run for 51 yards on nine carries, injecting life into a dormant running game
and giving the Vols reason to believe they can get
their offense back on track for the final two games of the regular season. Now,
UT’s leading rusher is set to return to the starting lineup Saturday against
Vanderbilt, and it couldn’t have come at a better time. The Vols
had only 14 points and 266 yards of total offense — both season lows — against
the Razorbacks. Coach Phillip Fulmer said Coker’s return provided a spark for
the Vols, who haven’t had a 100-yard rusher since
Coker ran for 125 yards against Memphis
on Sept. 30. Last week, tailbacks Montario Hardesty,
Arian Foster and Coker ran for a combined 104 yards on just 22 attempts. Erik Ainge is back — officially. After practicing all week, Ainge was named the starting quarterback The Vols’ offense hasn’t been the same without Ainge. MasterLockLine.com has the top plays from the top

Oregon State-Stanford

Corvallis Gazette Times

Anthony
Wheat-Brown, the starting flanker for the
Oregon State football team, has been suspended for
Saturday’s game at Stanford, coach Mike Riley said Thursday afternoon.
Wheat-Brown is a third-year starter. He has caught 21 passes for 319 yards and
three touchdowns this season.
Jackson has five receptions for 139 yards and a
TD.

South Florida-Louisville

Tampa
Tribune

Last season when Louisville
visited the University of South
Florida
, oddsmakers predicted a rout. And it was.
Except, instead of the favored Cardinals coasting, the three-touchdown-underdog
Bulls buried the birds 45-14. “We blew it,” Louisville
running back Kolby Smith said. “Shocked, stunned, you
name the word, and that was how we felt. They got us. Everything went wrong. It
was a wake-up call for us. You can’t just flip the switch on and off. You’ve
got to play the game.”Smith, who was among nine
Floridians who started for Louisville
last season, said everyone kept asking the same question. “I had a whole bunch
of family there,” said Smith, of Tallahassee Rickards.
“It was tough on them, too, having to answer all those questions about ‘What
happened?’ It was hard, hard, hard.” The 10th-ranked
Cardinals (8-1, 3-1 Big East) host USF (7-3, 3-2)
Saturday night, and the Bulls know what to expect. “They’re thinking revenge,” USF cornerback Trae Williams
said. Besides seeking revenge against USF, the
Cardinals will try to regroup from last week’s stunning 28-25 loss at Rutgers
that knocked UL out of the national title picture.

Iowa-Minnesota

Des Moines Register

The Gophers (5-6, 2-5 Big Ten Conference) need a victory
to earn their seventh bowl in eight seasons.Mason’s
team faced postseason elimination the past two weeks and responded with a 63-26
thumping of Indiana and a 31-18 win over Michigan State.
This was projected as a retooling year for Minnesota.
The offensive line was revamped and more of a burden was placed on quarterback
Bryan Cupito, the Gophers’ all-time leading passer
with 6,916 yards. The Hawkeyes (6-5, 2-5) have lost four consecutive conference
games for the first time since 1999. Stevie Vincent’s BetOnSports360.com is pioneer in forensic

Kansas State-Kansas

KUSports

Kansas State
freshman quarterback Josh Freeman has jolted the Wildcat offense back to life
midway through what’s becoming a glorious first season for KSU coach Ron
Prince. One good enough for Big 12 coach-of-the-year honors, perhaps? Amidst
K-State’s current three-game winning streak, Freeman has completed 55 of 77
passes for 681 yards and six touchdowns. He’s thrown only two interceptions in
that stretch and propeled K-State (7-4 overall, 4-3 Big 12 Conference play)
from the bowl bubble into a solid post-Christmas matchup to be determined.
K-State has scored at least 30 points in each of its last three games,
victories over Iowa State, Colorado and No. 4 Texas. Freeman’s makeup gives
K-State’s passing game the edge against KU’s pass defense, which is improved
but still not proven to be immune to problems against a precise quarterback. OffshoreInsiders.com

Eastern Michigan-Kent

Record Pub

Wins in the final two games of the season would guarantee KSU just its third winning season since 1972. The Flashes
(5-5, 4-2) are also still alive in both the race for the MAC East Division title
and a bowl invitation. A win over Eastern combined with an Akron
win at division leader Ohio would
create a tie between the Flashes and Bobcats at the top of the division
standings. Ohio would still own
the tiebreaker with Kent State,
but that scenario would set up an interesting final week with Ohio,
KSU and Akron
all still alive for the East title. Kent’s
Julian Edelman will be back in the lineup at quarterback after sitting out last
week’s game at Virginia Tech with a bruise near his chest. Michael Machen, the Flashes’ starter in 2005, started in place of
Edelman, while freshman H-back Darren Rogers, a converted high school
quarterback, also took a few snaps on designed run plays. KSU
is expecting tight end Brian Bell to return to the lineup after a two-game
absence due to an ankle injury. Running back Tony Howard will most likely sit
out, however, with an injured rotator cuff. Howard also missed the Virginia
Tech game. Joe Duffy’s GodsTips.com,

Actually, the Huskies could benefit from the Chippewas
winning the West last Saturday. Kelly might elect to rest some starters due to
the short week, and to limit the possibility of any major injuries occurring
before the Nov. 30 MAC Championship game at Ford Field. But the Huskies, who
have lost 12 of their last 13 games to Toledo,
own an eight-game series winning streak against the Chippewas, providing the
ideal motivational tool for Kelly. “I can probably lean on them a little harder
now,” Kelly said. “Obviously, they won a championship. Now, they need to finish
out. Northern Illinois is a team that’s trying to play
for a bowl game. They’re going to be ready. We’ve not beaten Northern
Illinois
going into my third season. There is
plenty of things out there for me relative to getting our football team ready
to play a good Northern Illinois football team.” At 5-5
and 3-3, NIU coach Joe Novak said the Huskies have
more than pride on the line. The Huskies need to win their final two games to
claim their seventh straight winning season and to remain in the chase for a
bowl game. MasterLockLine.com

in three years and its fourth in the past nine years, including 1998, 2002,
2004 and 2006. All five starters are back from the team that made the
late-season championship run, including seniors Justin Cage and Justin Doellman. Stevie Vincent’s BetOnSports360.com is pioneer in forensic
