Washington: The Week That Was
If the Huskies were flying high after their stunning upset of USC, they were brought back to earth this past weekend at Stanford. Washington got clobbered by the Cardinal, 34-14, as Steve Sarkisian’s club surrendered 321 rushing yards, 200 of them to Stanford running back Toby Gerhart. Despite allowing only seven completed passes, Washington’s defense was repeatedly gashed on the ground, a sign that UW’s defensive front needs to get stronger.

Here are some of the NCAAF betting trends as they relate to this matchup:
UCLA: 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games
Trust me, it’s easy to say things like “Tom Brady isn’t the same anymore” three weeks in to the season. But if you’re ready to crown Super Bowl Champions after less than a month of NFL betting, then you’re an idiot. Tom Brady is riding a slow rehab curve back to becoming one of the most prolific quarterbacks in the league. Can you blame the guy for being worried about his knee and playing a little scared? All it took was a loss to the Jets to shake him out of his rut, and now Brady is proving it will take time, but he will be peaking late in the season, which means the Patriots could be deadly in the playoffs.
Cincinnati Bengals @ Cleveland Browns
Sunday October 4 – Cleveland Browns Stadium, OH
NFL Betting Odds: Bengals -5.5, O/U: 38.5
The battle of Ohio from the dog pound features one team riding a two-game winning streak and another team that has scored one offensive touchdown in 8 games.
Game-day: 10/4/2009
Kick-off: 1:00 pm EST
One thing was obvious about the Detroit Lions last week in their victory over the Washington Redskins. That was that the Lions are a better team than anyone really knows. When rookie QB Matthew Stafford is given time, he can be every bit as effective as the Lions’ thought he would be when they drafted him #1 last April. The Lions’ defense has much better players and much better communication than the team in 2008.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-3 SU & ATS) at Washington Redskins (1-2 SU, 0-2-1 ATS)
Sunday, October 4 – 1 PM ET
NFL betting odds: WASHINGTON -7, Total 37
The Redskins are listed as a seven-point favorite, with a posted total of 37 points.

The Vikings are 3-0, thanks in large part to Favre’s last second heroics last week. They have won five straight games as divisional hosts but are 2-3 ATS in that span. They are also just 3-9 ATS in their L12 at home overall.
#8 Oklahoma Sooners at #17 Miami Hurricanes
Saturday October 3 – Land Shark Stadium – 8:00 PM ET
NCAA Football Line: Oklahoma -7.5, O/U: 49
Oklahoma: The Week That Was
Since losing quarterback Sam Bradford in the season opener and a shocking 14-13 loss to BYU, the Sonners defense has recorded back-to-back shutouts and impressive victories. Bob Stoops hopes to have Bradford back this week as the quarterback is back at practice and competing in most of the drills. Without their Heisman Trophy winner Oklahoma still rolled Tulsa 45-0 as 18 point favorites last time out. The Sooners are coming off of a bye week.
Michigan Wolverines @ Michigan State Spartans
Saturday October 3 – Spartan Stadium – 12:00 PM ET
Line: Michigan State – 2.5, O/U: 57
Michigan: The Week That Was
The Michigan Wolverines are 4-0 for the first time since 2006 after pulling out a dramatic 36-33 victory at the big house against Indiana. Unfortunately, as 20-point home favorites winning by three is not that impressive and that is probably why the Wolverines are underdogs in their first road test of the season.

The Wisconsin Badgers (4-0 SU, 2-2 ATS, 3-1 O/U) will look to keep their 2009 record unblemished when they battle the Minnesota Golden Gophers (3-1 SU, 2-2 ATS, 2-2 O/U) in a Big Ten showdown at TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday at 12 PM ET.

Week 4 of the National Football league season features some great matchups, but none bigger than the showdown between the Brett Favre-led Minnesota Vikings and Favre’s old team, the Green Bay Packers, on Monday Night Football.
As if there isn’t already enough animosity between the NFC North rivals, Favre’s first game against the Packers is sure to result in fireworks Monday night at the Metrodome (8:35 pm ET, ESPN).
Flush with cash from winning the battle last week vs. the books on Sunday and Monday, the sports betting public takes aim at Week 4 action.
There are two games in particular that have been attracting a lot of attention, both from the media, the fans and of course from sports bettors.
Seems we’ve never met an NFL betting line we didn’t like. After a perfect Week 3, let’s try and keep the football parlay momentum going. Here are some hot picks to consider.
The San Diego Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers, two teams that were supposed to be AFC contenders, have stumbled out of the gates early in the season and a lot of people now have some questions about the supposed power houses.
For starters, both teams are without key Pro Bowl caliber defenders and the losses have been evident early on.
