Yards per point is determined by diving total yards by number of points. Offensively a lower number is considered more efficient. On defense, a higher number is better.

We continue our NFL betting trend analysis with the late games and Monday nighter for Week 5. How will the Randy Moss-to-Brett-Favre connection fare in its debut?

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 10

Saints (3-1) vs Cardinals (2-2)

Despite the Super Bowl title, the New Orleans Saints don’t always blow opponents out. They’re just 2-8 against the spread in their last 10 games when favored. They have, however, beaten five of their last six spreads against Arizona. The Cardinals are 8-3 ATS over their last 11 against teams with winning records but still may be hard pressed to cover with rookie Max Hall drawing the his first NFL start at quarterback.

Chargers (2-2) vs Raiders (1-3)

All the major betting trends point San Diego’s way against Oakland this week. The chargers are 10-3 ATS over their last 13 against the Raiders and 7-1 ATS over their last eight trips to the Black Hole in Oakland. The OVER is 3-1-1 over the last five games in this series.

Titans (2-2) vs Cowboys (1-2)

Do the Titans reward as at the sportsbook the bigger underdogs they are? They’re 10-2 ATS over their last 12 as an underdog of 3.5 to 10 points. The hosting Cowboys, however, are 5-1 ATS over their last six seasons in the game following their bye week.

Eagles (2-2) vs 49ers (0-4)

Philadelphia is just 1-6 ATS over its last seven games but there could be some nice value in picking them this week, as Kevin Kolb gets the starting quarterback call over injured Michael Vick. The Eagles are underdogs of around 3.5 points at most books. They’re 7-1 ATS over their last eight games as an underdog of 3.5 to 10 points.

Vikings (1-2) vs Jets (3-1)

What’s with the Jets in Monday nighters? They’re 1-5 ATS over their last six Monday games. They’re 7-2 ATS over their last nine games overall but 3-10 ATS over their last 13 October games. The Vikings, who will have Randy Moss in the lineup, are 4-1 ATS over their last five against teams with winning records. And you know Moss will be out to impress after being held catchless in his final game as a New England Patriot last Monday.

It’s week 5 NFL picks and week 6 college football betting, plus MLB playoff action: Phillies vs. Reds radio broadcast and Giants vs. Braves tickets.  Bodog.net previews tonight’s action.

The Braves and Giants will hook up on MLB playoffs odds this Friday, as they play Game 2 of the NLDS.

Pitching was expected to be a major factor in this series, and that proved to be the case in Game 1. San Francisco won the series opener 1-0 thanks to a complete-game shutout by Tim Lincecum. Cody Ross drove in the lone run for the Giants.

San Francisco will go with Matt Cain (13-11, 3.14 ERA). Cain has been excellent this season, though he lost focus a bit in his final start of the year, allowing six runs through four innings against the Padres. That’s particularly concerning since the Giants were battling San Diego for the division title, so Cain was pitching in a playoff-like atmosphere. The righty had been fantastic in the last few weeks before that, surrendering three or fewer runs over four outings (including a pair of shutouts).

Cain faced the Braves just once this season, losing after allowing three runs through five innings. He’s never been great against Atlanta, going 2-2 with a 4.03 ERA in five career starts.

Atlanta will counter with Tommy Hanson (10-11, 3.33 ERA). The righty was on fire heading into the playoffs but had little to show for it. Despite allowing just one run over his last three starts, Hanson didn’t get a single win. Run support — or lack thereof — plagued Hanson throughout the second half of the year, as he went 2-6 with a 2.51 ERA in 16 starts.

Hanson pitched against San Francisco once this season, and he threw a gem. The youngster allowed just three hits and one run over seven innings. He’s faced the Giants just one other time in his career and was fantastic in that game too, giving up three runs in seven innings while striking out 11 batters.

The MLB playoffs are here! Bet on them at Bodog

MLB playoff odds continue Friday as the Reds visit the Phillies for Game 2 of their NLDS matchup. Philly is a -200 favorite at the sportsbooks

Philadelphia is coming off a 4-0 victory in Game 1. As you’ve probably heard, Roy Halladay was absolutely unconscious, pitching a no-hitter in his first ever playoff appearance. Doc also helped his cause by driving home a run. Shane Victorino chipped in with two hits and a pair of RBI.

On Friday, Philadelphia will start Roy Oswalt (13-13, 2.76 ERA), who obviously has a tough act to follow. The right-hander is no slouch, though. He’s been a quality ace in Houston for a decade, and he’s been lights-out since joining the Phillies mid-season: 7-1 with a 1.74 ERA in 13 appearances. Oswalt allowed a run during a tune-up inning against Atlanta in his final appearance of the regular season, but he’s allowed one run or less in six of his last seven starts.

Oswalt struggled against Cincy in two starts this year, though, going 0-2 with a 6.75 ERA. There’s not much cause for concern, as he normally dominates the Reds. In 34 career appearances (32 starts), he’s 23-3 with a 2.81 ERA.

Bronson Arroyo (17-10, 3.88 ERA) will get the nod for Cincinnati. The lanky right-hander enjoyed a nice season, and he’s pitching pretty well heading into the postseason. Arroyo has allowed just six runs in his past four starts, and three of those starts were wins. He’s prone to the home run ball, though — he allowed 29 this year — so the Phils will have a chance to go yard.

Arroyo has faced Philly eight times in his career, going 1-5 with a 5.51 ERA. It gets worse; in his lone career starts at Citizens Bank Park, Arroyo was torched for five runs and three homers.

Friday night’s game between high-powered Oklahoma State and mid-major Louisiana-Lafayette looks like a potential trap game for the Cowboys, who are 24-point favorites on Bodog’s NCAA Football Odds.

How could the Cowboys get too jazzed up to face the Ragin’ Cajuns of the Sun Belt Conference? After all, OSU is ranked and enters off a thrilling Big 12 opening win over Texas A&M, 38-35, in which the Pokes both rallied from a 14-point deficit and let the Aggies do the same. Plus this is the team’s first road game of the season. OSU still hasn’t scored less than 38 points in a game this season and ranks second in scoring and third in passing in the nation. Cowboys QB Brandon Weeden (1,259 yards passing, 13 TDs) has made OSU fans forget about Zac Robinson and receiver Justin Blackmon, who leads the NCAA in scoring (60 points), receiving yards per game (139.5) and TD catches (9), has done the same about Dez Bryant.

Oklahoma State’s defense has struggled this year, including giving up 35 points to Troy, another Sun Belt team. But it seems like UL-Lafayette will have trouble scoring regardless. The Ragin’ Cajuns average only 2.8 yards per rush attempt, while quarterback Chris Masson has completed only 52 percent of his passes. Louisiana-Lafayette is 103^rd nationally in rushing offense, 95^th in total offense, 93^rd in total defense and 103^rd in pass defense. The Ragin’ Cajuns are 2-2, but during the second halves of their four games, they were outscored 68-14.

OSU is the first ranked team to visit Lafayette in 14 years, although Kansas State did make the trip last year and lost. UL-Lafayette traveled to then-ranked Georgia to open this season and was bombed 55-7.

Your comp winner for Friday in on UConn against Rutgers laying laying five points with a total of 44, though some books have 43. The free pick is from Matt Rivers.

It’s almost blasphemy to lay points like this in-conference on the road at night but Greg Schiano’s Rutgers program is reeling a bit of late and all in all are just not very good. The Scarlet Knights were the second ranked team in the entire nation, literally, about four years ago and ever since things have gone downhill a bit. I definitely like Schiano and his chopping wood mentality but the talent for whatever reason just does not really seem to be there. Plus quarterback Tom Savage is banged up and may or may not play tonight.

Connecticut had high hopes in the beginning of the season and then they were flattened in Ann Arbor in the opener. That looked to be an awful loss but after seeing Denard Robinson and the Wolverines a month later we now realize how Rich Rodriguez’ squad is a lot better than anybody thought they were. Therefore that defeat is not as bad as it appeared. A 20-point loss is still not good at all but it’s not as bad of a reflection as we once thought and we have been seeing just that pretty much ever since. I say “pretty much” because the defeat at Temple wasn’t great either but Al Golden has a much-improved squad and the road is never easy. The other three games were really easy for Randy Edsall’s boys and I think that high quality group will show up today.

Jordan Todman is a star running back and Zach Frazer is a solid enough signal caller who has hooked up a bunch with Michael Smith. This thing isn’t going to be easy in New Jersey as Ray Rice’ alma mater will be all sorts of fired up to get after it but they are lacking a lot as the dreadful last home loss to Tulane showed and we may be seeing the bottom start to fall out of this program.

Expect a semi defensive game and a 23-10 UConn type of a victory.

The pick: Connecticut -5

For more information: I buried the man once again yesterday as the underdog 300,000* Rangers won in shutout fashion to go along with the beyond easy 200,000* on Nebraska. A sweet 2-0 sweep that will be repeated tonight. At least 500,000* of more profit led by another 300,000* in this gridiron matchup between Oklahoma State and UL Lafayette along with a 200,000* involving the Reds and Phillies. If you want to ride the hot hand you’re in the right place as I have now gone over the 4 million* mark in the last month alone!

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

The MLB playoffs continue on Thursday, with the NLDS between the Braves and Giants  kicking off in San Francisco. Atlanta will send Derek Lowe (16-12, 4.00 ERA) to the mound in that contest, while San Francisco counters with Tim Lincecum (16-10, 3.43 ERA). Righthander Lowe faced the Giants back on August 8, giving up two runs on five hits over 5 1-3 innings of work in a victory. Righthander Lincecum pitched against the Braves on August 5, surrendering three runs on six hits over 6 1-3 innings in that defeat.

As well, it’s Game 2 of both ALDS on Thursday, with Texas at Tampa Bay and the Yankees at Minnesota. The Rangers will send C.J. Wilson (15-8, 3.35 ERA) to the mound on Thursday, while the Rays counter with James Shields (13-15, 5.18 ERA). Meanwhile, the Yankees hand the ball to Andy Pettitte (11-3, 3.28 ERA) as he takes on the Twins’ Carl Pavano (17-11, 3.75 ERA). Lefthander Pettitte pitched against the Twins twice back in May, winning both games (two runs over 14 1-3 innings). Righthander Pavano is coming off a no-decision against the Jays, allowing two runs in seven innings.

Taking a trip around the rink . . .

Finally, the National Hockey League season gets underway on Thursday with five games on the schedule: Carolina at Minnesota (from Helsinki, Finland), Philadelphia at Pittsburgh, Montreal at Toronto, Calgary at Edmonton, and Chicago at Colorado. The defending-champion Blackhawks will have new starting goaltender Marty Turco between the pipes in their Thursday matchup, and they’ll be looking to work in some new depth players after jettisoning the likes of Dustin Byfuglien, Andrew Ladd, and Kris Versteeg in the offseason. Those moves dropped the Hawks from 5/1 Cup favorites on the opening line to 7/1 odds. The Avalanche are set at 40/1 odds to win the Stanley Cup.
