"1 UNIT" BASEBALL PERCENTAGE TOTAL (Twins at White Sox OVER 9 in a 7:35 eastern start on TBS---------Blackburn versus Danks):
Of course this is a "play in" extra game that will determine who wins the American League Central Division. We had an "added" game for all the marbles just one year ago when the Padres/Rockies went 13 innings in what turned out to be a 9-8 offensive shootout. One of the keys to this evening's selection is the weather at Chicago where the winds will be blowing OUT towards centerfield at about 10-to-15 miles per hour. What makes that weather forecast so significant is the fact that Minnesota starter Nick Blackburn is a "flyball" pitcher who has had his share of problems keeping the ball down in the strikezone. The White Sox offense has lived for the "longball" all season led by currently injured outfielder Carlos Quentin who actually was atop the senior circuit in the homerun department. Going tonight for Chicago is John Danks who showed signs of arm fatigue down the stretch and is coming off a horrible outing where an opponent nailed him for SEVEN runs. Blackburn has also had problems against the middle of the batting order as the Minnesota threesome of fierce swingers (Joe Mauer, Justin Morneau, Michael Cuddyer) are lifetime 24-for-40 against Danks. Chicago reached this "play in" by defeating Detroit at home yesterday with the help of an Alexi Ramirez GRAND SLAM. My database research indicates that the White Sox are an incredible 14-4 OVER the total this season when off a "margin" victory of 6+ runs. Minnesota just happens to be 22-10 OVER/ROAD this campaign when facing an opponent with a winning record. The big story is that Minnesota's Nick Blackburn is "7-0" OVER the total this season on the ROAD against an opponent with a winning record. Do I hear "8-0" OVER anyone?!

double-dime bet301 Fla. Atlantic 3.0 (-110) Bodog vs 302 Middle Tenn. St.
Analysis: I'm playing on FLORIDA ATLANTIC. This is a very big game for both programs. For starters, it's a rare chance to play on National TV. Additionally, with identical 1-3 records, both teams desperately need a victory. One could argue that the Blue Raiders need the game more, as they are already 0-2 in conference play. However, I believe that the Owls need the game just as badly, as they are coming off back to back blowout losses and desperately need to right the ship. While the Blue Raiders have homefield advantage, I believe that the Owls are the stronger team. I also believe that the matchups on the field favor the Owls.
The Blue Raiders have had an effective passing attack through their first four games. However, their running attack has been non-existent. That should work in favor of the Owls as they've been poor against the run but decent against the pass. The Blue Raiders have proven to be vulnerable against the pass, getting torched by Arkansas State QB Corey Leonard in their last game. Leonard threw for 292 yards and three touchdowns, running for 74 more, which was the best game of his career. The suspect secondary should be just the ticket for FAU QB QB Rusty Smith, the reigning Sun Belt Conference player of the year. The Owls have also gotten soldi production from running back Charles Pierre, who leads the team with 268 yards on 41 carries with two rushing touchdowns
While it's true that the Blue Raiders have been more competitive in their games, two of those were against conference opponents. The Owls, who were the preseason favorites to win the Sun Belt after earning a share of the title and the league's automatic bid to the New Orleans Bowl last season, have played three road games against teams from the Big 10 and Big 12. That included the likes of Texas and Michigan State. Just because they weren't able to win road games against the 'big boys' doesn't mean that they won't be able to play well against the weaker teams from the Sun Belt. Keep in mind that the Owls won their lone game against a team from a non-BCS school by double-digits.
I expect the Owls to benefit from the tough non-conference road schedule. As coach Schnellenberger said earlier in the week: "We look forward to getting in conference play. We need to have a good week of practice to refocus and we need improvement from all three phases of the football team...I'm confident that's going to happen."
On the other hand, Middle Tennessee coach Rick Stockstill admitted he would have preferred more non-conference games, saying: "I think with such a young team, you just wish you had more non-conference games early in the year. And I say that because you'd just like to have more of a chance to get their feet wet with such a young football team." The Owls won last year's meeting by a score of 27-14. The game wasn't even that close as the Owls led 24-0 in the fourth quarter and finished the game with a 411-217 edge in total yards, including a massive 216-18 edge on the ground. One of Middle Tennesee State's two scores was one on blocked punt for a touchdown. The Owls brought back a whopping 18 return starters from that team while the Blue Raiders only brought back 12, making them the youngest team in the Sun Belt. Lastly, in the event that this proves to be a close game, it should be noted that Middle Tennessee freshman kicker Alan Gendreau missed his only field-goal attempt against Arkansas State and that he's just 2-of-5 for the season. I'll gladly grab the points but am expecting an upset. *Main Event

My bad guys I get in past the 7 and 730PM eastern starts. That's why I ask for some help. I can post all I can usually around this time on but if they are early like tonight, I am no good.
Sorry
