2011 Rose Bowl Game: Wisconsin Badgers vs. TCU Horned Frogs

The Rose Bowl is perhaps the most historic and renowned of all of the college bowl games. The 2011 edition features two unique teams that will be going head to head with varying styles. The winners of the Big Ten, and the 5th ranked team in the country, the Wisconsin Badgers come to the table with an 11-1 record. The winners of the Mountain West Conference and the number 3 team in the country, the TCU Horned Frogs are undefeated at 12-0. Will it be the Wisconsin Badgers or TCU Horned Frogs that will emerge from one of the biggest and best college bowl games as the winner, and one of the top teams in the land?

Wisconsin has a three-headed rushing attack on offense that drives their team. In fact, they had three backs with pretty equal work loads, all of which went for over 800 yards on the ground. The primary back, if there is one, is James White, with 14 touchdowns and 1,029 yards on the ground, while John Clay rushed for 952 yards and Montee Ball rushed for 881 more yards.

Quarterback Scott Tolzien’s job is to take care of the football and a defense that’s focused elsewhere. He threw for 2,300 yards and 16 TDs, and only six interceptions on the season while completing at a 74.3% clip, the best in the nation for the ear. Andy Dalton, quarterback of the Horned Frogs, has more responsibility for his team, as he threw for 2,638 yards and 26 TDs.

But for TCU, their success really boils down to the way they play defense. They’re fast, ferocious and versatile, and they give up just 11.4 points per game. That’s good for first overall in the country, but don’t discount Dalton and the offense, as they score 43.3 points per game, which is 4th in the country. Coincidentally, Wisconsin also averages 43.3 points per game, and that has come against a much tougher conference schedule, showing the strength of that ground game.

Despite their small conference status, TCU is seen as the slight favorite when it comes to college bowl betting this year. The college bowl betting lines have TCU as a -2.5 point favorite, and Wisconsin +2.5 points. The total over/under for the match-up is 58.5, and considering the very strong TCU defense, it might be wise to go under, although surely the running game of Wisconsin would beg to differ. Remember, both teams are high scoring even though they both have good defenses too.

So whether you love to get in on the fun with college bowl betting or simply like to kick back for a few weeks in front of the television and enjoy all of the college bowl game betting, you should now be ready to go for the 2011 Rose Bowl. The running game and big conference experience of Wisconsin, or the defense and undefeated momentum of the TCU Horned Frogs? One school will finish the year recognized as one of the top 2 or 3 teams of the season.

MLB \| May 17 Milwaukee Brewers vs. Houston Astros	Milwaukee Brewers -141 at 5DIMES	> 10h.
With a day off on Wednesday in MLB we look to get back on a hot streak as we are still up big on the season. Thursday we have a total of nine pitchers with ERA's under 3.00 over their last three starts combined and a total of five pitchers with ERA's over 6.00 over their last three combined starts. There was one match up that stuck out and we marked them down as our POD. Mark the Brewers Down! ( -140 2.5* FREE PLAY ) For whatever reason Shaun Marcum has loved to pitch on the road as he has an ERA of 3.20 over the last three years on the road. That's much better than his home record and he's back at it again with a 2.77 ERA this year. He's been great of late posting a 1.80 ERA, but the Brewers lost 2 of 3. He should be motivated to keep that up so he can get a W and the Astros are the team to do it against. He's got a 1.80 ERA over 3 starts vs. the Astros who carry just a .637 OPS in 73 AB vs. Marcum. A few weeks ago I'd be on the Astros, but they are starting to come back to earth as they are now 24th with a .686 OPS vs. RHP while the Brewers are 8th with a .737 OPS vs. LHP. The Brewers are 8th and they face J.A. Happ who they have dominated. Happ and the Astros are 10-30 in their last 40 with Happ on the mound. He's really not the player they thought he'd be when they traded Roy Oswalt for him. Happ has a 5.40 ERA at home right now and the Brewers have a 1.139 OPS over 80 AB in their careers vs. Happ who carries a 6.08 ERA over the last three years vs. the Brewers. Brewers are 18-7 in their last 25 after Wednesday's loss to the Astros and are 47-17 in their last 64 vs. a losing team. Mark down the Brewers as a victory for Thursday. Notable Hot Starters: R.A. Dickey (2-1, 1.15 WHIP, 2.70 ERA) Matt Cain (2-1, 0.90 WHIP, 2.14 ERA) James McDonals (2-1, 1.05 WHIP, 2.05 ERA) Brandon Beachy (2-1, 0.93 WHIP, 2.33 ERA) Edinson Volquez (3-0, 1.20 WHIP, 1.47 ERA) Doug Fister (1-2, 0.90 WHIP, 0.54 ERA) Brandon McCarthy (3-0, 0.97 WHIP, 1.31 EAR) Chris Sale (1-2, 1.00 WHIP, 2.84 ERA) Cold Starter Of The Day: On Thursday we have an ice cold starter that makes for an interesting match up in Luke Hochevar of the Royals. First of the Royals have been red hot since their cold start and Hochevar needs to get with the program. Against the Orioles he could do just that as he has great numbers vs. them in 96 combined at bats the Orioles have a .198 average and .590 OPS. Notable Cold Starters: J.A. Happ (1-2, 1.59 WHIP, 7.16 ERA) Matt Moore (1-2, 1.86 WHIP, 6.43 ERA) Matt Harrison (1-2, 1.41 WHIP, 8.27 ERA) Chris Volstad (0-3, 1.71 WHIP, 7.94 ERA)
