Big Al McMordie’s SB XLIII Betting Preview

Super Bowl: An Early Look

The theme of this Super Bowl is already evident: Defense or offense? The Cardinals have the No. 4 offense in the NFL, No. 2 in passing, behind QB Kurt Warner and a talented trio of three-1,000+ yard receivers. The physical Steelers have the No. 1 defense. History says defense wins championships, which is why Pittsburgh is favored. But there’s a reason they play the games, as we saw last season when the double-digit Giants stunned the 18-0 Patriots, 17-14.

NCAAB Handicapping: Cal vs. WSU (Jan. 8)

Pac 10 Conference Play – California @ Washington St

California has captured a winning formula under their first-year coach, Mike Montgomery, who was formerly the head man at Stanford and with the NBA’s Golden State Warriors. The Bears have scored big non-conference wins over UNLV, DePaul, Utah and Nevada, and opened up the Pac-10 season beating both Arizona and Arizona State. They haven’t had to travel yet in the conference schedule, so this will be more of a test than some might expect.

NCAAB Handicapping: Michigan vs. Indiana (Jan. 7)

NCAA Basketball Breakdown Michigan @ Indiana

Not much was expected of Michigan this season, but this team busted out fast, winning games against UCLA and Duke in the first month of the campaign. Of course, that’s not the kind of thing that guarantees success in the Big Ten, as Wisconsin was quick to remind them a week ago when they came to Ann Arbor and left with a 73-61 victory.

NCAAB Handicapping: Davidson vs. Duke (Jan. 7)

NCAA Basketball – Davidson’s Stephen Curry Takes on Duke

Duke has had a hot hand lately, shooting 52% against NC-Asheville, 52.5% against Xavier and 54.5% against Loyola. Against Virginia Tech in its last outing, though, the Blue Devils hit less than 41% of their shots. They won the game with defense, holding the Hokies to just 13 points and 33% shooting in the second half.
