Congratulations to all our members on another solid win last night in college football as the SMU Mustangs held on to cover the 18-point spread by 1-point over the TCU Horned Frogs 41-24. Tonight, the pros at FivStarPick.com have been crunching stats, trends, key matchups and injury reports to give our members another winner tonight in college football.  The Alabama Crimson Tide are favored by 7- points on the road over the Arkansas Razorbacks. This line is DEAD WRONG!

Alabama (3-0 straight up, 3-0 against the spread) has won 27 straight regular-season games going into tonight’s SEC West rivalry against Arkansas.

The Razorbacks, under Bobby Petrino, hope that their 3-0 SU, 1-1 Against The Spread team can produce one of the biggest wins in school history against the number one team in the country.

The Tide has been blowing out teams so far this seaon with wins over San Jose St. (48-3), Penn St. (24-3) and Duke (62-13).  Their first two wins were without reigning Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram.  When Ingram returned last week at Duke, he busted a 48-yard run on his first touch. Ingram eventually finished with nine carries for 151 yards and two touchdowns in the win over Duke.

Arkansas beat up on Tennessee Tech and UL Monroe at home before going on the road to face the Georgia Bulldogs last week. The Hogs jumped out to a 24-10 lead, only to watch the Georgia tie it up late in the fourth quarter. UGA actually had a chance to go ahead before their drive stalled near midfield with a minute remaining.  Georgia punted and Razorback QB Ryan Mallett found Greg Childs streaking down the left sideline for a 40-yard pass to give Arkansas a 31-24 win as a one-point road dog. 

Mallett has completed 70 percent of his passes this year for 1,081 yards with a 9/2 touchdown-to-interception ratio.  McElroy, the Tide signal caller, has connected on 71.7 percent of his attempts for 705 yards with a 6/1 TD-INT ratio.

Both QBs have big weapons.  The Hogs’ have D.J. Williams, one of the nation’s premier tight ends with 14 catches for 173 yards.  The Tide has junior WR Julio Jones, who has 15 receptions for 248 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Jones averages 16.5 yards per catch.

When these schools met last season, McElroy threw for 291 yards and three TDs to lead the Tide to a 35-7 victory as a 17.5-point home favorite.

The pros at FiveStarPick.com are coming off another great win last night as Pitt covered the 6-point spread on the road at Rutgers. That makes it a cool 12-1 against the spread in our last 13. Today should be no different as we give our members new winners in three (3) lined affairs.  The focus of this preview is the 3:30pm game on CBS where the top-ranked Florida Gators(5-0 SU, 2-1 Against The Spread) take on the Arkansas Razorbacks (3-2 SU, 2-2 Against The Spread).  Las Vegas sportsbooks list the Gators as 25-point home favorites with a total of 58.

With or without QB Tim Tebow, Florida has dominated the Razorbacks in this series. UF has won and covered their last seven in a row against Arkansas and by big margins. Last year, the Gators beat Arkansas 38-7 as 26 ½-point road favorites and this season, the Gators own the best defense in the country (202 YPG, 6.4 PPG).

But if there is a team that might challenge the #1 team in the country, then this year’s Arkansas Razorbacks might be the team.  The Hogs are putting up staggering numbers averaging 451 YPG and 37 PPG on the season. The only game they have struggled with was at Alabama, losing 35-7.  Florida is 11-3 Against The Spread as home favorites in their last three seasons.

Tim Tebow and the 12th-ranked Gators are coming off one of the worst upsets of the year and Urban Meyer is pissed.  Florida (3-1 SU, 2-2 ATS) was 4th in the AP Top 25 before losing to Mississippi last Saturday and they look to right the ship against a Razorback team that has struggled since losing Darren McFadden to the NFL.  

The Razorbacks (2-2 SU, 1-2 ATS) have lost their last two games by a combined 77 points and new head coach Bobby Petrino is doing all he can to instill his philosophy in his first year with the team.

Two-time Heisman hopeful Tim Tebow ran for 2 TDs against Ole Miss and completed 24 of 38 passes for 319 yards, but his offensive line will have to do a better job of protecting him.  Tebow was sacked 3 times and hit 10.  Tebow has been sacked 6 times in 4 games;  He was sacked only 13 times all last year.

Arkansas, meanwhile, got stomped by Texas 52-10 last Saturday.   The Razoracks were held to 191 yards of total offense.  Last year they averaged 160.2 yards on the ground alone.  Razorbacks quarterbacks Casey Dick and Tyler Wilson have been sacked 17 times.  Bobby Patrino…you got some splaining to do.  Petrino comes to Arkansas having lost two straight games as a college coach only twice in his career.  Not to mention, went 41-9 in 4 seasons at Louisville.  He’s not happy… this pick is a lead pipe lock.
