Texas Bowl Sports Betting Preview: TCU and Houston
It's the Texas Bowl and appropriately enough two Texas-based teams TCU and Houston do battle. The Horned Frogs are laying 6.5 points with a total of 57.5-58.5 depending on the sportsbooks.
TCU is 7-5 straight up,
TCU is 5-6 to the number, though they did finish the regular season on a 3-1 run.
From our bowl previews: It's
The only exception to
TCU may be better than their record shows. They played their worst football when defensive end Tommy Blake left the team because of stress. The Horned Frogs were predicted to win the Mountain West.

Michigan State and Boston College
The Eagles range from a 4-4.5 point favorite with a total of 56-56.5. The Spartans are 7-5 straight up and against the spread. It was quite the roller coaster ride for them, winning their first four games, but losing 5-of-6 before closing out the year with consecutive impressive wins and covers at Purdue and at home to Penn State.
From our hand-picked previews from around the Internet at Sportsline360.com, we note that motivation could be a problem for BC. An 8-0 start had
MSU will be without star defensive end Jonal Saint-Dic because of academic issues. "This is a key injury because it hurts their pass rush against Matt Ryan," notes Cy McCormick of MasterLockLine.com
From our bowl previews: To say the least, these two teams are closely matched statistically on both sides of the ball. BC does get 3.3 more first downs per game but they are dead even in yards per play.
However, the Spartans do get .9 more rushing yards per attempt and .8 more passing yards per reception.
Boston College allows19.9 fewer total yards per game on .7 less yards per play and 66 fewer rushing yards per game. However, MSU allows 46.1 fewer passing yards per game. In the key areas of yards per play, BC has the upper hand in rushing yards per attempt allowed of 1.6, passing yards per attempt of .6 and passing yards per reception of .9. Even the turnover ratio is close with

Betting the Remaining Bowl Games
The bowls are here. A lot of money is to be made, but let us make sure it is not the bookmakers. One of the first blunders that so many gamblers make is that they feel they "have" to bet larger amounts on bowl games or bet every side and total.
Do not get me wrong; there are true harmless "recreational" gamblers. By that we mean people who are couch potatoes and bet only "entertainment" money to insure that they have someone to root for on that chesterfield with a Budweiser in his right hand and a remote.
While this practice defies money management, if one can objectively assert that they are not realistically expecting to make a profit, but just adding to the excitement of the game with the chance of making money along the way, there is really no harm.
The bookmaker will thank you, but there are some Joeybagofdonut guys who will bet lunch money on the bowls then regardless of how poorly or well he does not bet again until March Madness. To them, money management is mere gingerbread. But the serious player must bet postseason games using the same money management techniques mentioned in previous articles here.
The factors to look for and not to look for when handicapping are numerous. A classic gambler's trap is believing that one should focus on teams that finish the season on winning or losing streaks and to bet those streaks to continue.
The truth is nothing can break a team's momentum more than several weeks off. Conversely, not anything is more valuable to a struggling team than to have time to regroup such as which the weeks between the bowls offer.
In addition one must look at why a team performed the way they did down the stretch. Was a team really improved or just "in a groove"? Did injuries play a big part in a teams skid to end a year and did the time off help heal them? Or was it a case of several players improving as the year went on?
Sometimes there is a reason to the rhyme.
Everything must be considered when looking how a team did in September as opposed to how they performed in November. If there was a huge dichotomy one must instead of making the assumption that they progressed as the year went on—which may be the case but may not—do significant analysis and look further.
Keep an eye on injury reports, but not just of guys who return from injuries but also guys who played banged up late in the year. Did a team that struggled late in the year because of injuries get healthy over the long break? Many gamblers merely isolate teams that performed significantly better at the end of the season. Without analyzing why, such an application is fool's gold.

Taken from our sports betting previews from articles around the Internet, Purdue players have expressed how they want to go out on a high note after losing their final three regular season games including to rival Indiana (a GodsTips.com Wise Guy winner for sports bettors.
This is a rare bowl rematch as Purdue crushed the Chippewas 45-22 back on Sept. 23.
The Bowl previews told you that offensively, this is one of the more evenly matched statistical battles. Purdue gets just .4 more first downs per game but CMU gets 27.4 more yards per game on .4 more yards per play. The Boilermakers get 22.2 more yards per game in the air. The biggest edge is on rushing yards per attempt where the Chippewas get .9 more. While Central accumulates .2 more passing yards per attempt, it's Purdue earning .3 more passing yards per reception.
Purdue's defensive superiority is across the board, but not by dominating margins. They allow 3.4 fewer first downs per game on 64.7 fewer total yards. They also allow .8 less yards per play. The biggest upper hand is with pass defense, allowing 1.7 less passing yards per attempt and 1.3 less passing yards per reception and a passing percentage against of 7.9 better than CMU allows. In turnovers and rushing yards per attempt the teams are nearly even.
CMU went 7-2 straight up down the stretch and

Likewise Florida Atlantic gets the nod defensively, but not by much. They allow 22.4 less total yards per game and .6 less yards per play. The biggest edge by either team is on turnover ratio where Florida Atlantic has a superiority of 13.
Here are some betting numbers from the top Vegas insiders: each team is 7-5 straight up. Florida Atlantic has gone over the total their last seven games.
From our sports betting previews from articles around the Internet, Owls head coach Howard Schnellenberger is 4-0 straight up in bowl games. They are led by Sun Belt Player of the Year quarterback Rusty Smith, throwing for 28 touchdowns and just eight interceptions.
However, “intangibles” handicappers will want to note that FAU is playing in their first bowl game having just played in the Bowls Subdivision since 2005. So this would qualify as “their biggest game in history” notes Cy McCormick of MasterLockLine.com, the online betting syndicate.

NBA
TORONTO -5 Seattle
A five point or more road favorite off a SU loss as an away dog is more than a 60 percent play since 1983. For a team to be more than a five-point road favorite, you are almost always talking about a superior team against a greatly inferior. For that superior team to have been a dog the previous game, they likely were playing another top-notch team. So it says that a superior team loses to another superior team and takes out their frustrations on the inferior team.

But let's take a look at the Rams-Steelers. First taken from our sports betting previews from articles around the Internet, the Rams have scored 20 or more points just three times this year.
