Plus almost as odds defying as the pregnant “man” Jim Norton is how much the world’s top sports handicappers continue to win. The Wednesday rundown of the top football picks and basketball locks betting is up.

True the handicappers at times tend to be one track in their thoughts. We think Navy Advancement is discussing whether the Navy profile sheets say the Midshipmen will move the ball against Army on the gridiron.

We think Costa Rica protected land is where the honorable activity of betting and sportsbooks are welcome.

The Gridiron Spotlight

Ball State continued their assault on the win column last week, knocking off Miami-Ohio 31-16 to improve to 10-0 (7-2 against-the-spread) on the season. That mark has the Cardinals at No. 14 in the AP Poll this week, although they’re down at No. 17 in the BCS rankings. MiQuale Lewis ran for two touchdowns in their win over the RedHawks.

Central Michigan won’t be a pushover for the Cardinals on Wednesday night, though, as they won their sixth straight contest last time out, beating Northern Illinois 33-30. The Chippewas are now 8-2 (6-3 ATS) on the season and will be looking to score the upset.

The oddsmakers opened Ball State as 5.5-point road favorites for Wednesday night, but that line has since moved to 7 points. The total for the contest is pegged at 54.5 points. The OVER/UNDER is 4-5 in Ball State’s games, and 5-4 in Central Michigan’s games.
