Kym Johnson and Derek Hough top the Dancing With the Stars odds and an all-time great sports service has his Game of the Year.

Courtesy of OddsShark.com: Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Tigers try to pick up a victory at Fenway Park, the Marlins battle the Padres, and the Canadian Football League wraps up its fifth week.

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

The American League schedule for Saturday has Cleveland at Toronto, Oakland at the White Sox, Seattle at Minnesota, Baltimore at Kansas City, the Yankees at Tampa Bay, Texas at the Angels, and Detroit at Boston. The Tigers will give the ball to Max Scherzer (7-8, 4.45 ERA) on Saturday, while the Red Sox counter with Daisuke Matsuzaka (7-3, 4.09 ERA). Righthander Scherzer was tagged with a loss by the Rays in his last start, surrendering four runs (three earned) on two hits over 5 2-3 innings of work. Righthander Matsuzaka had to settle for a no-decision in his most recent outing, holding the Mariners to one run on four hits in six innings. Boston is 6-4 in Dice-K's last 10 starts.

Over in the National League on Saturday it'll be the Dodgers at San Francisco, Atlanta at Cincinnati, Philadelphia at Washington, Milwaukee at Houston, Arizona at the Mets, Pittsburgh at St. Louis, the Cubs at Colorado, and Florida at San Diego. Ricky Nolasco (11-7, 4.35 ERA) is slated to take on Kevin Correia (7-6, 5.09 ERA) in that last matchup. Righthander Nolasco beat the Giants last time out (one run over 6 1-3 innings of work), and he's 6-1 in his last seven starts. Righthander Correia beat the Pirates in his last start, allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits over six innings of work in that contest.

Vegas Insider Picks Big Underdog Baltimore in MLB Betting Lines

It's approaching time to bet college football, but there is tons of money to be made in beating the MLB Odds with a handicapper hotter than the Chippy D sextape.

The real Matt Rivers of OffshoreInsiders.com has a Saturday winner on the Baltimore Orioles +210 at Kansas City.

Brad Bergesen can be a nightmare unlike Zach Greinke who could be great but the Kansas City Royals are laying $2 plus? Seriously? That alone makes this play a total no-brainer. I understand that the Orioles aren't good and they are at a huge disadvantage with the most important position on the field but once again, the Kansas City Royals are laying $2 plus? Come on.

Greinke will be better than that dreadful last start but the righthander has not been the same guy as last season and is fairly hittable right now. That doesn't mean that the poor Orioles, who just traded away Miggy, will be able to do all that much damage but there is still an upside here with Buck Showalter's soon to be club. Jones, Wieters, Roberts and Markakis are quality big league hitters and scoring some runs is not out of the realm at all.

I don't hate the Royals at all as I like Billy Butler and a few others but Dejesus is done for the season and Podsednik was just traded away so I think that this team is on the way down and headed for a bit of a fall.

KC is still not a bad team to back when getting a price like this but when laying it is an entirely different matter. Bergesen may not be pitching well at all but the righty is still a young guy with some stuff. The upside has not shone through in the slightest and may not today as he could get fully outclassed by the far superior pitcher but the price is just too right to not make a play on this dog.

The pick: Baltimore at Bodog

For more information: Its been nine of 13 winning days after the small losing Friday and raising the bar today from Tropicana Field. I don't always have a play the magnitude of a 400,000* but when I do look the heck out!

MLB Game Preview for July 31, 2010: Oakland Athletics @ Chicago White Sox

A betting expert is not surprised when Roy Halladay pitches a no-hitter, as he has done this season. Halladay is a Cy Young winner and recognized as one of the best pitchers in baseball. However, when a pitcher like the Oakland A's Dallas Braden throws a no-hitter, all kinds of red flags go up. It is like teams betting on NFL quarterbacks that have one good season. Do we expect a Matt Cassell to be a star quarterback after one good season in New England? The Kansas City Chiefs certainly hope so.

The Oakland A's are slowly drifting away from the Texas Rangers for the AL West pennant, and they are drifting even further away from the AL wild card berth. As NCAA football betting gets started, the A's need to start winning a lot and now if they want to have any prayer of making the playoffs.

The Chicago White Sox are in a dog fight with the Minnesota Twins for the AL Central pennant. The MLB betting community expected Minnesota to be fighting it out with the Detroit Tigers, but pitching problems in Detroit have caused the Tigers to fade from view.

This game between the A's and the White Sox is incredibly important for both teams. The White Sox have a four game winning streak going, but those pesky Twins have won five in a row. With a lead of only one and half games, the White Sox must continue to win games if they want to hold on to their lead in the AL Central.

The A's are 6-4 in their last 10 games, and while that is above .500 it is not nearly enough to catch the Texas Rangers who lead the A's by eight and a half games in the AL West. The Rangers keep putting distance between themselves and the A's by winning seven of their last 10.

The A's put no-hitter surprise Dallas Braden on the mound for this game. Ever since his no-hitter, Braden's game has crumbled. His record is 5-7 and he is struggling to maintain a respectable ERA but sits at 3.77. Braden went nine consecutive starts without a win since his perfect game, and he finally won in his most recent start to put his record at five wins.

The White Sox are sending John Danks to the mound with his 11-7 record and 3.23 ERA. Danks has been a jewel in the starting rotation for the White Sox as he has displayed excellent control, and has the staying power to be in the game up until the seventh inning.

This is a game of two teams going in opposite directions. The White Sox need this game just as much as the A's but the difference is that the White Sox are playing like they need to win games and the A's are not. The White Sox are hitting the ball better than they have all season, and Dallas Braden is not exemplified by his no-hitter.

Pick: Chicago White Sox 3-1

NFL Spreads: San Diego Chargers Will Win Division Say Bet Expert

Next up in our NFL betting divisional previews: the AFC West. It may be another year or two away from being a deep and relevant NFL division but 2010 could mark the first time in a while that every team almost matters.

DENVER BRONCOS

NFL futures odds: +600

It's been quite the rollercoaster just one year into the Josh McDaniels era. Most sports betting sharps wrote them off entirely at the start of 2009; then they went 6-0 to start the year, largely on the strength of Elvis Dumervil and their powerhouse pass rush. But then the wheels fell off; they couldn't stop the run and Kyle Orton started being Kyle Orton again.

The Broncos hit the reset button for 2010. Brandon Marshall, their stud receiver, is off to Miami. To rebuild their offense (around Knowshon Moreno, the only useful piece), they took the plunge on Tim Tebow and drafted some young wideouts too. But even if Tebow turns out to be the second coming, it won't happen this year. The Broncos won't accomplish much in 2010.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS

NFL futures odds: +750

The Chiefs find themselves in similar waters to the Broncos in that they're slowly assembling pieces but still probably aren't ready to make a major move up the standings. Charlie Weis should know how to make the most of pieces like Matt Cassel, Dwayne Bowe, Jamaal Charles and Thomas Jones as the new offensive co-ordinator.

Kansas City is also making a habit of taking defensive prospects in the first round. But they won't grow teeth overnight. The Chiefs still need another year for Eric Berry and Tyson Jackson to develop – and we still don't know if Cassel can be the man behind center even when that happens.

OAKLAND RAIDERS

NFL futures odds: +700

For the first time since Rich Gannon took snaps for them, the Raiders look like they have a chance to be mildly competitive this year. Finally, they made a safe first-round draft pick. Linebacker Rolando McClain has the tools to be a defensive leader for years. The Raiders were already underrated defensively against the pass thanks to Nnamdi Asomugha; maybe McClain, who should start, could bolster the run "D."

Oakland should score more now that they've shoved JaMarcus Russell out the door. Jason Campbell isn't anything special but he's efficient and he should make guys like Zach Miller and Darren McFadden a lot better. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Raiders win six or seven games and finish second in the West.

SAN DIEGO CHARGERS

NFL futures odds: -333

You know you play in a cupcake division when you lose your starting left tackle and Pro Bowl wide receiver and are still favored to run away with it. Marcus McNeill and Vincent Jackson both look like they'll hold out for the first 10 games of 2010 but Phillip Rivers is still the man in their offense. He has Antonio Gates and the Chargers' running game should improve via rookie Ryan Mathews. They didn't trade up to draft a guy for their bench.

The Chargers defend the pass pretty well but struggle against the run. That could give them some minor headaches against Moreno, Charles and McFadden (or Michael Bush) in divisional play but San Diego is still the team to beat in this division by a mile.

Free pick

You know what to do. Chargers all the way.

 

Pro Football Weekly Eat Your Heart Out: NFL Preseason Picks

With information hotter than Katherine Connors and more accurate than Phil Steele's NFL picks, it's time for preseason NFL picks.

NFL betting is back with a vengeance, baby. It won't be long before preseason action starts up – so we better get going on divisional breakdowns, agreed? We'll start with the division most people call the roughest, toughest in football: the AFC North. We'll peruse each team alphabetically.

BALTIMORE RAVENS

NFL futures odds: -135

To me, the only thing holding Baltimore back not just from a divisional or conference title, but from a Super Bowl, could be the age of the defense. Ed Reed, Ray Lewis and company are a bit long in the tooth; how much longer before they break down for good?

The Ravens' offense should continue its rapid development this year. Rocket-armed Joe Flacco now has two outstanding possession receivers in Anquan Boldin and Derrick Mason. Ray Rice may be the best pass-catching back in the league. If Donte Stallworth can emerge as a viable deep threat, they'll be unstoppable. And how can you not love Flacco in 2010 when he has Michael Oher protecting his, er, Blind Side?

CINCINNATI BENGALS

NFL futures odds: +285

The Cincinnati Bengals are like that kid in high school who does something dumb at a party and can't shake the reputation no matter what. Even though they're the reigning AFC North champs – and went 4-0 against Pittsburgh and Baltimore last year – they have the third best odds to win this year.

Why? What did they lose? They had a top-four defense in the league last year and their stud cornerback tandem of Jonathan Joseph and Leon Hall returns. Their offense has only added, not subtracted; Carson Palmer now has Terrell Owens, rookie tight end Jermaine Gresham and, if he's healthy, Antonio Bryant to throw to on top of Chad Ochocinco.

The Bengals may not be the class of the AFC North but they sure as heck aren't the Bungles anymore.

CLEVELAND BROWNS

NFL futures odds: +825

It's a long road to respectability for the Cleveland Browns but new team president Mike Holmgren could eventually steer them in the right direction. They had a respectable offseason, bolstering the secondary by drafting Joe Haden and acquiring Sheldon Brown. Their quarterback situation isn't great with Jake Delhomme and Seneca Wallace, but this sports audio shows site would probably take those two over Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson. Well, at least Wallace.

The Browns' main strength this year could be the running game. Jerome Harrison looked like a star late last year and he could form a nice tandem with rookie Montario Hardesty running behind a good line.

PITTSBURGH STEELERS

Betting odds: +225

The books are trying to screw you by giving the Steelers the second best odds for the AFC North. It's not that Ben Roethlisberger and Santonio Holmes carried the team by themselves; the Steelers still have an amazing defense and Rashard Mendenhall could get the running game back to where it was in the glory days of Jerome Bettis and Willie Parker.

But with Holmes gone and Ben suspended for four to six games, defenses won't respect backup Byron Leftwich (or Dennis Dixon, who I think deserves a shot). They can stack the box against Mendenhall. I think the Steelers will find themselves in too deep a hole before Ben returns.

Free pick

I definitely think people underestimate the Bengals – at least as a Wild Card team. But I admittedly think they'll relinquish the division title to Baltimore this year. The Ravens destruction of New England in the playoffs last year was a sign of things to come. Pick the Ravens.

Sports Betting Roundup For Thursday

Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts edge out the San Diego Chargers as favorites to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl.

Courtesy of OddsShark.com: Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Rays host the Tigers, the Pirates play on the road versus the Rockies, and the PGA Tour takes to the links at The Greenbrier Classic.

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

The American League has five games on tap for Thursday, with the Yankees at Cleveland, Oakland at Texas, Baltimore at Kansas City, Seattle at the White Sox, and Detroit at Tampa Bay. The Tigers will send Rick Porcello (4-8, 5.55 ERA) to the mound on Thursday, while the Rays counter with David Price (13-5, 2.90 ERA). Righthander Porcello was tagged with a loss by the Blue Jays last time out, giving up three runs over six innings pitched; Detroit is 1-4 in Porcello's last five starts. Lefthander Price beat the Indians in his last trip to the mound, allowing three runs on three hits over seven innings.

Over in the National League on Thursday it'll be Atlanta at Washington, St. Louis at the Mets, Florida at San Francisco, the Dodgers at San Diego, Arizona at Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh at Colorado. Paul Maholm (6-8, 4.13 ERA) will take on Ubaldo Jimenez (15-2, 2.75 ERA) in that last matchup. Lefthander Maholm was beaten by the Padres last time out, surrendering four runs on nine hits over his six innings pitched. Righthander Jimenez was knocked around by the Phillies in his last outing, giving up six runs over just two innings of work. Colorado is just 1-3 in Jimenez's last four starts, and the Cy Young contender has allowed 20 runs (18 earned) over his last 21 1-3 innings of work.

Rounding out the Roundup . . .

The PGA Tour offers up a new event starting Thursday, with the golfers hitting the links in The Greenbrier Classic at The Old White Course in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. Jim Furyk is pegged as the 14/1 Vegas favorite to win The Greenbrier Classic this week, with Matt Kuchar and Nick Watney just behind him on that odds list at 18/1. Sergio Garcia has been given 20/1 odds to claim the tournament title, with both Ricky Barnes and Jeff Overton at 25/1, and Carl Pettersson rounding out the top contenders at 30/1. Pettersson is coming off a victory in the RBC Canadian Open on the weekend.

The Canadian Football League kicks off the fifth week of its regular season on Thursday with Toronto at Montreal. The Argonauts (3-1 SU, 3-1 ATS) came back for a 24-20 home win over British Columbia last time out, scoring 14 points in the fourth quarter en route to the win. The Alouettes (3-1 SU, 2-2 ATS) kept pace with the Argos in the Eastern standings with a 37-14 home win over Hamilton in Week 4; Anthony Calvillo threw for 310 yards in that victory. Oddsmakers have the Alouettes pegged as the 10-point home favorites for Thursday's game, with the total for the day sitting at 52.5 points.

Finally, there are two games on the WNBA's schedule for Thursday, with San Antonio at Washington and Minnesota at Phoenix. The Mercury beat the Lynx 127-124 on the road as a 2.5-point favorite in their last matchup on July 24. Candice Dupree led Phoenix with 32 points in that victory, while Diana Taurasi was good for 31 points in the contest. Seimone Augustus poured in a game-high 36 points in that losing cause for Minnesota.

Odds to win AFC Championship…

Vince Young won't be suspended, perhaps making the Titans an interesting long shot to win the AFC,

Heisman Trophy Picks and Odds: Will Mark Ingram Win Again?

Shea Matthews of ScoresOddsPicks.com looks at the Heisman Trophy betting odds. 

We' previewed all the main conference races in college football betting. But what about the other popular race – the Heisman Trophy? Here's a look at the top five candidates.

MARK INGRAM

Sportsbook odds: +350

He's already the reigning Heisman Trophy winner entering his third year with Alabama and has just one season with a starter's workload under his belt. Last season, Ingram was a monster, running for 1,658 yards and 17 scores. All the key members of the Crimson Tide's offense return and Trent Richardson's presence should help keep Ingram fresh, so he remains a great pick.

TERRELLE PRYOR

Sportsbook odds: +450

The dual-threat quarterback plays for a school many sports betting sites pundits believe can win the national title this year. Pryor showed poise and leadership during Ohio State's stellar late-season run last season. But Jim Tressel commits to the run a fair amount too; does that mean Pryor won't have the numbers to win the Heisman? It didn't stop Troy Smith.

JAKE LOCKER

Sportsbook odds: +800

Is there a more hyped prospect in the nation this year? The senior projects as a high first rounder in next year's NFL draft. He showed maturity last season with Washington, throwing for 21 scores versus 11 picks. But he'll need a spike in his numbers to really contend for the Heisman.

RYAN MALLETT

Sportsbook odds: +1000

In terms of numbers and physique, it's understandable why Ryan Mallett is generating so much Heisman buzz. At 6'7" and 238 pounds, he draws constant comparisons to another hulking pivot – Ben Roethlisberger. He posted some gorgeous stats with Arkansas last year as well, throwing for 30 touchdowns and getting picked off just seven times. The biggest obstacle for Mallett may be the team around him. The Razorbacks' "D" is bad. Bad enough that it could cost them lots of wins and hurt Mallett's Heisman hopes.

JACORY HARRIS

Sportsbook odds: +1200

Harris may not have the gifts of a Mallett but he has a better team around him. There are few sexier sports betting sleepers than the Miami Hurricanes right now. Most pundits believe Harris, who threw for 24 scores last year, can take one more step forward in his development.

Today's free pick

Pryor will get plenty of support but I'm not crazy about his situation. He barely topped 2,000 passing yards last year. Even in Troy Smith's Heisman season with the Buckeyes, his yardage was low but his touchdowns were off the charts – meaning he had some luck on his side.

My gut tells me Ingram's situation is still ideal but what are the odds of him winning a second straight year? Since I'm higher on Washington than most, I'll take the plunge on Jake Locker and his glowing scouting report.

 

MLB Game Preview for July 29, 2010: Los Angeles Dodgers @ San Diego Padres

The betting world is keeping a close eye on the NL West as there is a three-way race for the pennant. The San Diego Padres lead the division, with the San Francisco Giants two and a half games behind and the Los Angeles Dodgers trailing by five games. Before the NFL betting gets started in San Diego and San Francisco, fans in each city would like to see their teams make some progress towards wrapping up the pennant.

Now that the NCAA football betting future in Southern California is in doubt, the focus has shifted to the Dodgers. The Dodgers are 5-5 in their last 10 games, but they are riding a three game winning streak. They have closed the gap with San Diego by a couple of games, and the Dodgers have brought themselves to within two and a half games of the Giants, who lead the NL wild card race. To add insult to injury, the Dodgers won the first game of this series with the Padres.

The Padres have won seven of their last 10 but, as was mentioned, they were clipped by the Dodgers in game one of this series. The Padres continue to drop to the bottom of the NL in almost every hitting statistic. If it were not for their NL leading pitching staff with a staff ERA of 3.26, the Padres would not even be in this pennant dogfight.

The MLB betting crowd is not going to be too impressed with the Dodgers if they cannot start winning on the road. Their win over the Padres in the first game of this series still leaves them at 22-25 on the road, a full three games under .500. A team that cannot win on the road has no hope of going very far in the playoffs, especially when that team will not have any home field advantage in the playoffs. Of the three teams fighting it out for the NL West pennant, the Dodgers have the best home record at 32-21, but that road record needs to be remedied immediately.

The Dodgers are off to a good start in getting their road legs back, and for this game they send Vicente Padilla to the mound. Padilla has a 4-3 record and a respectable 3.41 ERA. He lost some time due to injury, but he is gaining his strength back and becoming the reliable pitcher that the Dodgers need.

The Padres send Mat Latos and his 11-4 record to the mound for this game. Latos is typical of the effectiveness of the Padres' starting rotation as he boasts a 2.48 ERA. Latos may be a little vulnerable for the Dodgers as he is just coming of a two week stint on the injured list. His first start back from injury was a seven strikeout win against the Pittsburgh Pirates. He was shaky in the beginning of the game, but as he warmed up he got much better.

The Dodgers need to get on Latos early and put some runs on the board. Padilla can hold off the woeful Padre bats and allow the Dodgers to pull away. Latos may be feeling better, but he may not be enough to win this one for the Padres.

Pick: Los Angeles Dodgers 5-2

Odds to Win Heisman Trophy: Mark Ingram, Terrelle Pryor, Jake Locker, and Ryan Mallett Faves

Mark Ingram, Terrelle Pryor, Jake Locker, and Ryan Mallett top the 2010 Heisman Trophy odds list.

Courtesy of OddsShark.com: Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Yankees play on the road against the Indians in Cleveland, and the Phillies send their ace to the mound at home against the D-Backs.

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

The American League schedule for Wednesday offers up Minnesota at Kansas City, Boston at the Angels, Baltimore at Toronto, Detroit at Tampa Bay, Oakland at Texas, Seattle at the White Sox, and the Yankees at Cleveland. New York will go with A.J. Burnett (8-8, 4.77 ERA) on Wednesday, while the Indians counter with Fausto Carmona (10-7, 3.51 ERA). Righthander Burnett blanked the Royals over five innings last time out, and he beat the Tribe back on May 30 (one earned run over eight innings). Righthander Carmona has won three straight starts, holding the Rays to one unearned run on one hit over five innings in his last trip to the mound. Carmona faced the Yankees back on May 28, losing after surrendering four runs in his six innings of work.

Over in the National League on Wednesday it'll be the Cubs at Houston, Cincinnati at Milwaukee, Florida at San Francisco, Atlanta at Washington, St. Louis at the Mets, Pittsburgh at Colorado, the Dodgers at San Diego, and Arizona at Philadelphia. Edwin Jackson (6-9, 5.01 ERA) gets the ball for the Diamondbacks in that last contest, while Roy Halladay (11-8, 2.28 ERA) takes the mound for the Phillies. Righthander Jackson has lost three straight starts, giving up six runs (four earned) on eight hits over six innings against the Giants last time out. Righthander Halladay dominated the Rockies in his most recent start, tossing eight scoreless innings while giving up just five hits. Halladay has fanned 140 batters while walking just 20 over 162 innings so far this year.

Football Handicapper: Florida Marlins Build Bankroll For NFL Preseason Odds

NFLX odds are just around the corner, but let's continue dominating today's MLB picks.   Matt Rivers, who was the winningest handicapper ever—nobody came close—on a large network of sites has a winner for Wednesday is on the Florida Marlins +130 on San Francisco.

This Alex Sanabia kid has looked very solid so far in his short stint in the bigs and the Marlins are a decent enough team so I'll back the fish in a small play. No Sanabia isn't going deep into games and probably won't here as well but the guy has yet to allow more than a single run in any outing and it's not like the Giants offense is a big bad juggernaut.

Jonathan Sanchez certainly is a tough lefty that can dazzle at times. He had that no-hitter last season and has been very good this season with that 7-6 record and 3.35 ERA. I don't have many negative things to say about Sanchez but the Marlins have very competent righthanded hitters led by Ramirez, Uggla and Cantu and to get a chunk of change back is well worth it as Sanchez is not upper eschelon just yet.

When playing baseball one needs to find a winnable game at a price that's right. Obviously there isn't any point spread, unless you're doing the run-line, so if you can isolate a pretty even game and get back a quality price then it's a value. I wholeheartedly believe that these visitors from South Beach have a great shot to win this game and will take care of business more times than the oddsmaker seems to believe.

San Francisco has played some great ball over the past month and is a team that has a legitimate shot to play some postseason baseball. But neither Lincecum nor Cain are on the mound today and the Marlins have been great themselves over the past few weeks making me just fine with backing this capable enough pup in a definite winnable spot.

The pick: Florida +130 at SportsBook

For more information: If not for one bad Cubs inning it would have been another 3-0 sweep. But 2-1 will suffice as the Red Sox plus 140 and the Dodgers at even money took care of business. It's now about a billion straight winning days for a billion* of profit. Seriously, it's a golden golden run and three more winners today.

Raising that Bar with a 400,000* Lock of all Locks between the Tigers and Rays along with a 200,000* Mets-Cardinals and a 100,000* Reds-Brewers. 3-0 sweep? You bet your arse! Click now to purchase at OffshoreInsiders.com

SEC Betting: Preseason Picks for College Football

Even with Tim Tebow, whom many people call the greatest college football player ever, gone from the SEC, it will still probably be the most watched conference in the nation among sports betting fans. It still houses the defending national champion plus some storied programs that always seem to field contending teams. Let's have a look at the top picks.

ALABAMA (1 to 1)

The theme of 2009 college football betting was saying goodbye to legends. Tebow, Colt McCoy, Sam Bradford – all are NFL bound now. But guess what? The defending national champs haven't said goodbye to any of their key offensive pieces.

Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram returns to smash people in the running game. He has a nice complementary back in sophomore Trent Richardson. Greg McElroy may be more of a game manager than star quarterback, but who cares? He does the job well. And he has an elite target in Julio Jones when 'Bama wants to air it out.

While Alabama doesn't return as many defensive starters, some of its younger guys are ready to step up and fill the void. A repeat national title is very possible – and an SEC title is almost a lock if you ask me.

ARKANSAS (8 to 1)

As Ryan Mallett goes, Arkansas will go. There's no denying that their quarterback is a beast. He topped 3,600 passing yards last year and threw 30 touchdown passes versus only seven picks. But I'm not crazy about Arkansas' "D." It forces lots of turnovers but it was 99^th in points allowed last season.

AUBURN (8 to 1)

I'm not sure why anyone could get overly excited about Auburn this year. Even if the conference's worst scoring defense from a year ago improves, it has a long way to go to stop the elite teams. And Auburn's offense is nothing special despite its strong offensive line. Get some sports betting secrets now.

FLORIDA (5 to 2)

Before you Florida fans fling yourself from the bandwagon and grieve Tebow....remember that your team still has one of college football's top programs. Four of five offensive linemen are back and will give new pivot John Brantley plenty of time to make throws. Their speedy defense will also give plenty of teams trouble. Don't count out Urban Meyer's boys just yet.

GEORGIA (8 to 1)

If Aaron Murray is the real deal at quarterback, Georgia's offense could make some noise in the SEC. After all, it has a budding superstar wideout in A.J. Green and an experienced line.

The defense remains inexperienced but the hope is that coaching, not personnel, will cause the biggest improvement for the Bulldogs. The problem is that Todd Grantham (imported from the Dallas Cowboys) will convert the defensive scheme to a 3-4 – and growing pains always come when a defense makes that switch.

LSU (10 to 1)

The LSU Tigers offer decent value at 10 to 1. I think they'll have one of the best defenses in the conference this year. They have skill at every position – especially the quick defensive line. On offense, Jordan Jefferson will have to be better but only two starters return to his line. I'm not convinced LSU will score enough to win the SEC.

Today's free pick

On one hand, every team listed above has chance for a good season. On the other, I still see the SEC as Alabama and the rest. Why downgrade the national champs when their stars are back for more?

MLB Preview: Marlins vs. Giants

Josh Johnson (10-3) vs. Matt Cain (8-8)

Johnson vs. Giants Hitting

With the recent slump exhibited by Ubaldo Jimenez, Josh Johnson has taken the mantle of most dominating pitcher of 2010. A 10-3 record with a 1.61 ERA will do that; a stretch of starts in which 12 of 13 outings you allowed one run or less (the 13^th start was an enormous two runs) will do that as well. Since allowing four runs on opening day, he's never allowed more than three in a game. He's thrown 18-straight quality starts. Simply put, Johnson has been incredible.

It really doesn't matter who bats for San Francisco in this game, I'm betting it'll be massively difficult for anyone to produce any kind of offense against Johnson. Aubrey Huff, who leads the Giants in batting average, home runs and RBI's, has limited success against Johnson (4-for-9), and will be relied on for sparking any offense. Rookie Buster Posey (.358, 8 HR, 32 RBI in 47 games) will also be leaned on to produce. Good luck with that.

Cain vs. Marlins Hitting

A string of two strong starts for Matt Cain has erased a poor-stretch of games where Cain lost four straight decisions and allowed more than seven runs in two separate games. His most recent start was much more Matt Cain-like; he threw eight scoreless innings and struck out nine in a win over Arizona. Overall this season has been a strong one for Cain, pitching as one of three aces in a strong San Francisco rotation. Odds are he'll continue to recover nicely from his slump earlier in the year.

Cain has faced Florida already this year with successful results. The righty pitched seven innings, allowing two runs and striking out six. The Marlins offense this season has been carried by Hanley Ramirez and Dan Uggla, one of whom has past success against Cain while the other does not. Ramirez is hitting .400 (6-for-15) against Cain with a home run; Uggla is hitting just .167 with four strikeouts in 12 at-bats.

Bullpen Comparison

Florida has a nice trio of workhorse reliever that highlights the Marlins bullpen. Clay Hensley has pitched the most innings of any Fish reliever and has a nice 2.95 ERA to go along with it. Brian Sanchez is a solid set-up man himself, with a 2.60 ERA. But the anchor of the group is closer Leo Nunez. Nunez has 23 saves this year and is averaging over a strikeout per inning. Two of the regulars in the 'pen, Burke Badenhop and Tim Wood, have ERA's reaching 6.00 and bring the overall quality of the bullpen way down.

The Giants bullpen is also headed by their top-flight closer. Brian Wilson is tied for the MLB-lead in saves with 29, and has a very impressive 1.83 ERA to go along with it. Wilson is also the workhorse of the 'pen, throwing 43 1/3 innings this year, tops among San Fran relievers. Sergio Romo (2.08 ERA) and Denny Bautista (2.64 ERA) compliment Wilson in a very effective bullpen.

Outlook

Johnson has entered the territory where you'd be downright crazy not to be betting on him to win. His current streak of domination is unlike any other in recent baseball history, and that includes what Jimenez did earlier in the season. Cain is no slouch himself, but he and his offense cannot stack up against what Johnson has been doing this year. He is a just a real special talent.

Pick: Florida Marlins

NFL Preseason Lines: Dallas Cowboys Preview 2010

Will Dez Bryant be an asset or baggage to the Dallas Pokes this season? Fantastic online bookmaker Bodog looks at that question.

Today's 2010 training camp outlook begins with the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys have 10/1 odds to win the Super Bowl this season.

Dallas doesn't have many holes heading into the season. The offense is loaded at the skill positions. Tony Romo enjoyed the best year of his career last season, and he could have an improved receiving corps to work with. Dez Bryant was drafted in the first round, and he was one of the best players in the entire draft. The ground game, led by a trio of backs, will also be dominant.

The biggest question mark, though, is the offensive line. Dallas was destroyed in the playoffs by Minnesota and the biggest culprit was a caving o-line. Alex Barron was brought in to replace Flozell Adams at left tackle, but Barron has been a major flop thus far in his career.

Dallas Cowboys: Dez Bryant and Terrell Owens, Current and Former WRs Making Waves

With NFL picks previews hotter than Vanessa Branch, here is another Bodog NFL preseason picks preview. A former and a current Dallas Cowboys receiver are each grabbing headlines.

First, where will T.O. wind up?

He used to be the baddest receiver on the planet. It used to be a debate on who was better, Owens or Randy Moss. Now it's about a week before training camp begins for a lot of squads and T.O. can't seem to get work from anyone. Except, according to ESPN, the St. Louis Rams.

According to ESPN a source has told them that the Rams asked Owens through his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, if he would consider a serious contract proposal, even though they are not considered a playoff contender.

Rosenhaus told the team Owens would definitely consider it.

Considering teams haven't been exactly lining up for Owens' services there's a good chance this deal could happen.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter the Cincinnati Bengals are also kicking the tires on T.O.

Owens has had trouble finding a new job despite his talent because of issues with the coaching staff and the quarterback during his stints in San Francisco, Philadelphia and Dallas.

No matter where a rookie is drafted in the NFL, they are required to essentially be a slave to the NFL veterans. Carrying pads, doing Krispy Kreme runs, getting taped to the goal post, it's all in good fun and it's part of your first year playing professional football.

But Dallas Cowboys rookie Dez Bryant isn't playing ball.

He refuses to carry anyone's pads in the NFL, especially the guy he trying to get ahead of on the depth chart, Roy Williams.

"I'm not doing it," Bryant said. "I feel like I was drafted to play football, not carry another player's pads."

"If I was a free agent, it would still be the same thing. I just feel like I'm here to play football. I'm here to try to help win a championship, not carry someone's pads. I'm saying that out of no disrespect to [anyone]."

Obviously Williams doesn't agree. Not only is he in jeopardy of losing his job to the rook, but he can't even get the kid to submit to standard NFL hazing.

"Everybody has to go through it," Williams said. "I had to go through it. No matter if you're a No. 1 pick or the 7,000^th pick, you've still got to do something when you're a rookie.

"I carried pads. I paid for dinners. I paid for lunches. I did everything I was supposed to do, because I didn't want to be that guy."

Williams went on to threaten more severe hazing in the future if Bryant's stance continues. Bryant has been shinning in practice but he won't make many friends in the locker room if he continues to rub them the wrong way.

Courtesy of OddsShark.com: Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Yankees begin a series in Cleveland against the Indians, and the Marlins head to San Francisco for a road series against the Giants.

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

The American League schedule for Monday has Baltimore at Toronto, Detroit at Tampa Bay, Minnesota at Kansas City, Seattle at the White Sox, Boston at the Angels, and the Yankees at Cleveland. New York will send Javier Vazquez (8-7, 4.68 ERA) to the mound in that last contest, while the Indians counter with Jake Westbrook (6-6, 4.74 ERA). Righthander Vazquez got support from his team in his win over the Angels last time out; he surrendered five runs on nine hits over just five innings of work in that game. Righthander Westbrook is coming off a loss to the Twins in which he gave up four runs on six hits over six innings. Cleveland is 5-5 over Westbrook's last 10 outings.

Meanwhile, the National League has just four games on its Monday schedule, with Colorado at Philadelphia, the Cubs at Houston, Cincinnati at Milwaukee, and Florida at San Francisco. Ricky Nolasco (10-7, 4.50 ERA) is slated to get the ball for the Marlins on Monday, with Barry Zito (8-5, 3.45 ERA) taking the hill for the Giants. Righthander Nolasco took care of the Rockies in his most recent start, giving up just two runs on four hits over his eight innings of work in that game, and fanning eight. Lefthander Zito was the hard-luck loser in a start against the Dodgers last time out, surrendering two runs on six hits in his 7 1-3 innings pitched. San Francisco is 3-1 in Zito's last four mound trips.

Football Odds: NCAA Preview of Pac 10

Shea Matthews of ScoresOddsPicks.com previews the Pac 10.

There is probably no tougher conference to understand in betting secrets of the pros this season than the Pac-10. Thanks to a recruiting violation, USC has been deemed ineligible for postseason and bowl-game play for 2010. That makes things pretty confusing considering that USC will probably have the conference's top record.

USC isn't available for bets at any sportsbook because it can't win the Pac-10 no matter how well it plays. So let's sort through the rubble and see which remaining team will benefit most from USC's boo-boo.

ARIZONA (5 to 1)

Here's another team that may not be complete but has several difference makers that could make things interesting in the Pac-10. Nike Foles is no sleeper behind center and Nate Grigsby is very dangerous with the football. The Wildcats also have a good pass rush with Rick Elmore and Brooks Reed as the focal points.

OREGON (5 to 2)

The Oregon Ducks aren't safe from the NCAA's iron fist either. In fact, their starting quarterback, Jeremiah Masoli, is suspended for the entire season. But they still bring plenty of other weapons to the table. Nine starters return to the offense and all indications around camp are that Masoli's replacement, Nate Costa, is more than ready to make an impact. The Ducks' defense returns eight starters and has a very speedy defensive line.

OREGON STATE (5 to 2)

Beavers fans have their hopes very high in 2010 after Oregon State had a solid 2009 season. It's true that it has two of the most exciting players in the conference with the Rodgers brothers. Halfback Jacquizz may be the Pac-10's top playmaker and James is a good receiver. But the betting advice is still to avoid Oregon State. Ryan Katz isn't the answer at quarterback and stud defensive tackle Stephen Paea doesn't have enough help on "D."

STANFORD  (8 to 1)

Anyone who supports Oregon State has to give Stanford a look. Andrew Luck joins Jake Locker as the other NFL-caliber quarterback ready to make noise in the Pac-10 this year. He has plenty of veteran wideouts surrounding him too. But defense will be Stanford's downfall. Even though the secondary is just fine, the "D" is undergoing the dreaded 3-4 transition, which almost always creates a temporary regression.

WASHINGTON (5 to 1)

Do you or don't you believe the hype? I'm on board – and not just because Washington has one of the nation's top prospects in quarterback Jake Locker. The offense returns all its starters at the skill positions and, while the "D" isn't elite, it has a real playmaker leading the way in Mason Foster.

Today's free pick

I still think Oregon is the most complete team in the Pac-10 besides USC, so I expect the Beavers to play for the conference title. In the end, though, I think Jake Locker's star power wins out. He'll lead Washington over Oregon in a tight battle.
