2. Pittsburgh – Panthers return just 10 starters. Can’t see them starting 10-0 like last season. That being said, we will see how good this team is early. They have a road game vs Utah on September 2nd followed by a visit from ex-Big East foe Miami Florida. If this team is 4-0 heading into their October 9th matchup vs Notre Dame, then we can talk Pitt as a legit BCS team. Can’t Miss Trend… Pitt just 3-9 ATS last 12 November games

3. South Florida – New HC Skip Holtz takes over a talented Bulls team. This team has underachieved the past couple years. I have chased good money after bad on several occasions thinking that So.Fla finally was turning a corner. Holtz won B2B C-USA Titles while at ECU and this team is better than any he had there. Can’t Miss Trend…South Florida is 0-5 ATS last 5 vs Cincy

4. Cincinatti – These guys are B2B Big East Champs! New HC Butch Jones takes over just as he did for Brian Kelly at Central Michigan. Tough to ask them to go undefeated again in Big East play. But the offense is loaded and the defense sound. Can’t Miss Trend… Cincy is 3-14-1 L18 vs West Va SU

5. UConn Huskies- We find out what this Huskies team is all about when they face Michigan this week. HC Randy Edsall has the talent to compete for the Big East Title this year. With 8 starters returning on both sides of the ball, this team is a veteran bunch. Can’t Miss Trend…Uconn is 6-1 ATS last 7 vs Rutgers

6. Rutgers – Last year has to be looked at as a disappointment for Rutgers. This year they have a tougher schedule and have to replace some key components on both sides of the ball. They do have returning QB Tom Savage, but this team will face some struggles. Can’t Miss Trend…Rutgers is 5-1 ATS last 6 games at Pitt

7. Syracuse – HC Doug Marrone is in year 2 and should at least equal last year’s conference win total of 1. Look for a bit of overachieving from the Orange as the coach promises a more aggressive defense and some no-huddle offense. With 1,000 rusher back and their entire O-line, the Orange should score. The defense returns 10 starters and should improve on this side of the ball as well. Can’t Miss Trend…SU is 8-3 ATS last 11 September road games

8. Louisville – This team is terrible. New HC Charlie Strong inherits a team that needs a monumental face lift. With just 12 returning starters, and new schemes being used under the new coaching staff, this is clearly a rebuilding year. Can’t Miss Trend… UL is 0-5 ATS last 5 vs Syracuse

Play on RUTGERS -2½

Game Analysis: Take Rutgers over Central Florida (Saturday 8 pm ESPN) Saturday is the opening day of the bowl season and we will attack the St. Petersburg bowl siding with the BCS Conference team in Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights had one of the most disappointing seasons in 2009, as they were predicted by many to win the Big East Conference. UCF has faced six bowl teams this season and went just 2-4 straight-up in those games. The UCF Knights are 98th in offense averaging just 26 points per game and 348 total yards. Rutgers does not rate much higher in offense but has played stronger competition in the Big East. Rutgers needs this win to salvage their season and expect them to get it behind Joe Martinek and company. We will side with the Knights from New Jersey in this battle. Doc’s Sports is one of the top college bowl handicappers in the country going 6-1 with our seven bowl plays last season. Jump on this winning action now!

Steve Janus Update

Steve Janus – 4* Heavy Hitter comes through with ease on the Monday Night Football game Orlando came up just short of a cover for a sweep, but unit players still came out on the positive end overall. Tuesday just one play jumps out and it’s in the NBA, a 5* Blue Chip Bet! Blue Chip Bets are on a 21-13 run (62%) over the past month!

Play on RIDER +7

Game Analysis: On Tuesday the free play is on Rider. Game 725 at 7:30 eastern. Rider will not be intimidated by the Big East Conference or Rutgers. In fact in their last trip here to Rutgers they won here as a road dog. Last year they played Rutgers right down to the wire in a narrow loss. This year they come in as 7 point dogs having played a tougher schedule then Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights are in off 3 straight non conference wins over some real cup cakes. Tonight they will get a tough game from a Rider squad that is 19-7 vs teams who allow 65 points per game or less. Rutgers is just 6-38 vs winning teams,4-9 ats after allowing 60 or less and 1-4 ats as a home favorite in this range. Take the points tonight with Rider. On Tuesday I have a Monster 6 unit NBA play that has a Huge 29-3 Power system attached to the game. Last night we started off with the 49ers on Monday night football as we shoot for an 8th straight winning week. Now on a 62-27 run. Jump on and make some nice change on Tuesday night as the hoops stay hot. Take Rider tonight in College hoops.
