NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/12/2012 - Moraga, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rob Jones scored 25 points and pulled down 12 rebounds, as 16th-ranked Saint Mary's remained unbeaten at home by topping Santa Clara, 82-67, at McKeon Pavilion.

Coming off a Thursday loss at Gonzaga, the Gaels (23-3, 12-2 WCC) bounced back nicely and moved to 16-0 at home on the season. Matthew Dellavedova tallied 16 points and 10 assists, while Stephen Holt scored 11 in the win.

Denzel Johnson had 17 points for the Broncos (8-17, 0-12), who lost their 13th in a row. Niyi Harrison totaled 12 points and Brandon Clark 10 in defeat.

Brad Waldow's tip-in capped six straight points for the hosts, as Saint Mary's gained a 40-35 halftime lead. Back-to-back layups from Holt extended the advantage to 50-38, but the Broncos made it close.

After trailing by as many as 14 later in the half, Santa Clara rallied and got within 62-59 on Harrison's layup with under nine minutes left. That culminated a 15-5 spurt.

Another Harrison bucket had the visitors within three again nearly a minute later, but Waldow's dunk and a three-ball from Clint Steindl provided some breathing room for the Gaels as they extended their cushion down the stretch.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
