MLB Odds Favor D-Backs, Reputation Favors Giants

The surging Arizona Diamondbacks have an opportunity to put yet more space between themselves and the reigning World Series champion San Francisco Giants this weekend. The question is, can they actually follow through?

What was once looking like a tightly-fought NL West division race has blown right open thanks to the D-Backs' late-August success. Now, with a three-game set on the horizon, the Giants can either start clawing back at the lead, or continue their downward spiral.

As far as the MLB betting world is concerned, the Giants are a superbly-staffed club with winning experience. Arizona, in contrast, is still very much an unproven commodity. That may be why the D-Backs sit with just 18/1 odds of winning the World Series compared to San Francisco?s 25/1 despite the gap in the standings.

With the wild card berth essentially locked down by the NL East?s Atlanta Braves, it's all or nothing for the rivalry in the west. If Arizona can hold on to their playoff ticket, it will be their first trip to the postseason since 2007.

Led by Justin Upton and a contingent of well-rounded young hitters, not to mention revitalized ace Dan Haren, the Diamondbacks have seemingly come out of nowhere to emerge as a legitimate MLB betting option.

It may be hard to completely buy into the D-Backs? as contenders philosophy, but those who do stand the chance of collecting a significant payout.

CFL Odds Board in Flux as Bubble Contenders Clash

Lost in the hype of the the CFL's elite are a pair of wayward franchises sputtering in two of the country's largest markets. Though it may not be the best for business in big cities, it only adds drama to the CFL betting field.

This Friday the Toronto Argonauts, four years removed from a plus-.500 season and on the verge of missing the playoffs altogether, will host the equally disenfranchised B.C. Lions.

The match up may lack the fanfare of a contender tilt elsewhere in the Canadian Football League, but it's a reflection of the power shift in the game, and specifically the dog fight on the horizon at the bottom of the CFL betting board.

Though they each won their most recent match ups in Week 8, Toronto over Saskatchewan and B.C. over Edmonton, their desperate attempts to cling to a playoff berth are only just beginning.

With the current CFL playoff format, six of the league?s eight teams will qualify for a berth. That?s why, despite their 2-6 record, the Lions have 10/1 odds of winning the Grey Cup.

The reason the Lions face 10/1 odds, as opposed to Toronto's 30/1, is because B.C. currently sits third in the West Division (ahead of the 1-7 Saskatchewan Roughriders). The Argos, two games behind 4-4 Hamilton, sit fourth in the East.

Not all however is lost for Toronto, thanks to the CFL?s crossover playoff berth which allows a fourth-place team in one division to steal the berth of a third-place team in the opposing conference so long as they finish with more points in the regular season standings.

That backdoor entrance to the postseason is what will make this Friday?s basement-dwelling showdown an event with utmost playoff implications.

College Football Betting Kicks off with No. 4 Tigers and No. 3 Ducks

Amid the celebration and excitement over the dawn of a new NCAA football season, nestled between masses of cupcake opponents and non-conference showdowns, lies one of the most anticipated match ups of the college football season.

This Saturday, at a neutral location, the No. 4-ranked LSU Tigers will play host to the No. 3-ranked Oregon Ducks.

You can bet on the big game with Bodog's college football odds.

Fresh off a drama-filled offseason in which LSU head coach Les Miles was blasted by a former offensive coordinator, and quarterback Jordan Jefferson was caught fighting in a bar, the Tigers may still present as one of the nation?s top programs.

According to Bodog, the Tigers sit with 14/1 odds on the college football futures list. Think they can follow through?

The Ducks, however, have not been without their own offseason melodrama, thanks to questions of recruiting violations centered on head coach Chip Kelly and his involvement with controversial scouting service owner Willie Lyles.

Regardless of the summer commotion, both programs are expected to produce legitimate national contenders, the Tigers in the competitive SEC and the Ducks in the Pac-12.

In addition to 5/2 odds of winning their newly-expanded conference, the Ducks also have 14/1 odds of winning the BCS national championship.

With so much going on off the field, will these programs be ready to kick off their season the right way?
