NFC slight faves over AFC in Pro Bowl

Bettors have to wait two weeks for the Super Bowl, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t football action this weekend to wager on.

If you have the time to cap the seemingly endless amount of roster changes due to injuries and can't control the urge to throw down a wager on the gridiron, then the Pro Bowl from Aloha Stadium in Hawaii is for you.

Books began releasing their odds Monday afternoon, and there is quite a discrepancy depending on which book you’re placing wagers with.

Online sportsbook BetOnline opened the NFC as 3-point favorites with a total of 84.5, while the LVH in Las Vegas has the NFC listed as 1.5-point faves and have set an 85-point total.

Early odds from offshore books are ranging anywhere from NFC -2.5 to -3 with varying totals between 83 and 85.

The NFC holds a slight 21-20 SU edge over the AFC all-time in the Pro Bowl and took last year’s contest by a score of 55-41.

NBA: Utah vs. Houston
Pick:
Houston
Start:
March 17, 2014 - 8:00 PM
Capper:
Will Rogers
Offered at:
betonline @ -13 -110 Houston
Analysis:

Houston has lost three in a row after winning five straight. But it was a very tough 3-game road trip for the Rockets having to visit Oklahoma City, Chicago and Miami.  I played against them yesterday as they lost on South Beach, but this is a time where you'll want to be Kevin McHale's team.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Jazz Not Playing Well - Utah has lost four in a row.  They've also lost eight of nine, the lone win coming against the worst team in the league, Philadelphia.  The Jazz too played on Sunday and lost to San Antonio 122-104.  That dropped them to the worst record in the Western Conference this year at 22-45. They were outscored in every quarter yesterday by the Spurs, who shot an insane 62.5 percent for the game.

2. Revenge - Somehow, Houston lost to Utah earlier in the year, 109-103 as 7.5-point favorites.  But that game was also on the road. They did win in Utah back in November.  Utah is not a good road team with an 8-26 record.

3. X-Factor - At three games, this is Houston's longest losing streak of the season. They should have no problem bouncing back.

Selection:  This is a free play on the Houston Rockets (1*)
