NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/15/2010 -

Durham, N.C., 29-5.

Nickname: Blue Devils. Coach: Mike Krzyzewski.

Conference: Atlantic Coast. Bid: ACC champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 1.

Tournament Record: 88-30, 33 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (78.4); Jon Scheyer 18.7; Kyle Singler 17.5; Nolam Smith 17.4.

Rebounds: Team (39.3); Brian Zoubek 7.3; Kyle Singler 7.0; Miles Plumlee 5.0; Lance Thomas 4.9.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (14.1/11.1); Jon Scheyer 5.1/1.7; Nolan Smith 2.9/1.8; Kyle Singler 2.4/1.9.

3-pointers: Team (.385); Jon Scheyer 94; Kyle Singler 71; Nolan Smith 49; Andre Dawkins 34.

Last Ten: 6-4.

The Skinny: The Blue Devils were the top seed in the ACC tournament for the first time since 2006, when J.J. Redick was the star. After a brief lull, it appears Duke is back on track. Krzyzewski's boys went 17-0 at Cameron Indoor Stadium this season, setting a school record for home wins.

Arkansas-Pine Bluff

Pine Bluff, Ark., 17-15.

Nickname: Golden Lions. Coach: George Ivory.

Conference: Southwestern Athletic. Bid: SWAC champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 16 (opening round).

Tournament Record: First Year. Last appearance: First year.

Scoring: Team (64.9); Terrance Calvin 10.6; Savalance Townsend 10.4; Lebaron Weathers 10.1; Tavaris Washington 9.4.

Rebounds: Team (38.2); Lebaron Weathers 6.8; Terrance Calvin 5.2; Tavaris Washington 4.6; George Davis 4.3.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (12.5/17.1); Terrance Calvin 4.1/3.2; Savalance Townsend 1.9/2.4; Tavaris Washington 1.9/2.5.

3-pointers: Team (.306); Savalance Townsend 30; Alle Smith 29; Lebaron Weathers 27.

Last Ten: 9-1.

The Skinny: Started the season 0-11 with a brutal non-conference schedule. Some of those losses were to UTEP, Arizona State, Oklahoma State, Georgia Tech, Missouri and Kansas State. The Lions went 14-4 in the conference and won three more to win the conference tournament.

Winthrop

Rock Hill, S.C., 19-13.

Nickname: Eagles. Coach: Randy Peele.

Conference: Big South. Bid: Big South champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 16 (opening round).

Tournament Record: 1-8, 8 years. Last appearance: 2008.

Scoring: Team (62.4); Reggie Middleton 10.3; Matt Morgan 9.6; Mantoris Robinson 8.2.

Rebounds: Team (38.8); Andy Buechert 6.5; Mantoris Robinson 6.2; Charles Corbin 5.2; Matt Morgan 4.6.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (10.7/12.3); Reggie Middleton 2.9/2.0; Andre Jones 1.8/1.5.

3-pointers: Team (.255); Reggie Middleton 30; Mantoris Robinson 21; Robbie Dreher 21.

Last Ten: 7-3.

The Skinny: Winthrop upset Coastal Carolina in the championship game, providing some vindication for Peele. He took over when Greg Marshall bolted for Wichita State, and a couple lean years had folks in South Carolina wondering whether he was right for the job. What do they think now?

---California

Berkeley, 23-10.

Nickname: Golden Bears. Coach: Mike Montgomery.

Conference: Pac-10. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 8.

Tournament Record: 18-15, 15 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (78.0); Jerome Randle 18.7; Patrick Christopher 16.0; Theo Robertson 14.1; Jamal Boykin 12.0.

Rebounds: Team (35.8); Jamal Boykin 6.7; Patrick Christopher 5.4; Theo Robertson 4.7; Omondi Amoke 4.6.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (14.5/12.0); Jerome Randle 4.5/3.5; Jorge Gurierrez 2.7/1.4; Theo Robertson 2.3/2.0; Patrick Christopher 2.1/1.5.

3-pointers: Team (.373); Jerome Randle 88; Patrick Christopher 55; Theo Robertson 44.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: Cal is hoping that rough start to the season has been forgotten, along with how weak the Pac-10 was this season. The Golden Bears finished the season strong and guys like Randle and Christopher and give opposing coaches headaches.

Louisville

Louisville, Ky., 20-12.

Nickname: Cardinals. Coach: Rick Pitino.

Conference: Big East. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 9.

Tournament Record: 60-37, 35 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (76.3); Samardo Samuels 15.3; Edgar Sosa 13.3; Jerry Smith 8.4.

Rebounds: Team (36.9); Samardo Samuels 7.0; Jared Swopshire 6.0.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (15.6/13.7); Edgar Sosa 4.5/2.7; Preston Knowles 2.4/1.4.

3-pointers: Team (.339); Edgar Sosa 66; Reginald Delk 42; Preston Knowles 37; Jerry Smith 32.

Last Ten: 6-4.

The Skinny: The Cardinals nearly went from a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament to missing it altogether, but a late run that included a Freedom Hall-closing victory against then-No. 1 Syracuse saved them. That loss in their first game of the Big East tournament shouldn't be discounted.

---Texas A&M

College Station, 23-9.

Nickname: Aggies. Coach: Mark Turgeon.

Conference: Big 12. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 5.

Tournament Record: 8-11, 10 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (71.8); Donald Sloan 18.2; Derrick Roland 10.5; Ryan Davis 9.5; B.J. Holmes 9.3; David Loubeau 9.0.

Rebounds: Team (36.5); Bryan Davis 7.9; David Loubeau 4.6.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (12.2/12.3); Dash Harris 3.3/1.7; Donald Sloan 2.0/2.6.

3-pointers: Team (.333); B.J. Holmes 57; Donald Sloan 45.

Last Ten: 7-3.

The Skinny: The Aggies are making their fifth straight NCAA tournament appearance, a run that is even more remarkable considering it had never before played in consecutive tournaments. Sloan may be one of the best players in the country that nobody knows anything about.

Utah State

Logan, 27-7.

Nickname: Aggies. Coach: Stew Morrill.

Conference: Western Athletic. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 12.

Tournament Record: 6-20, 18 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (73.7); Tai Wesley 13.6; Jared Quayle 12.5; Nate Bendall 10.4.

Rebounds: Team (35.5); Tai Wesley 6.6; Jared Quayle 6.3; Nate Bendall 5.4; Brady Jardine 4.6; Tyler Newbold 4.0.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (16.9/10.3); Jared Quayle 4.2/1.6; Tai Wesley 3.4/1.7; Tyler Newbold 3.0/0.9; Pooh Williams 2.3/1.0.

3-pointers: Team (.419); Jared Quayle 68; Tyler Newbold 57; Brian Green 52; Pooh Williams 36.

Last Ten: 9-1.

The Skinny: Quick, name the three teams that have 23 or more wins in 11 straight seasons. Give up? How about Kansas, Gonzaga and Utah State. In fact, the Aggies have averaged more than 25 wins per year over that run, though few expected it to continue after a modest 6-4 start to this season.

---Purdue

West Lafayette, Ind., 27.5.

Nickname: Boilermakers. Coach: Matt Painter.

Conference: Big Ten. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 4.

Tournament Record: 31-23, 23 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (71.1); E'Twaun Moore 16.6; Robbie Hummel 15.7 (injured); JaJuan Johnson 15.2.

Rebounds: Team (33.3); JaJuan Johnson 7.1; Robbie Hummel 6.9 (injured); E'Twaun Moore 3.7.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (14.0/10.9); E'Twaun Moore 2.7/2.2; Chris Kramer 2.3/1.3; Robbie Hummel 2.1/1.0 (injured).

3-pointers: Team (.319); E'Twaun Moore 48; Robbie Hummel 43 (injured); Keton Grant 27.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: Everybody knows that the Boilermakers miss Hummell, their go-to playmaker who is done for the season with a knee injury. Guys like E'Twaun Moore and JaJuan Johnson have had to help cover his 31 minutes and nearly 17 points per game. Look no further than a 53-44 loss to Michigan State on Feb. 28 to realize it hasn't been easy.

Siena

Loudonville, N.Y., 27-6.

Nickname: Saints. Coach: Fran McCaffery.

Conference: Metro Atlantic Athletic. Bid: MAAC champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 13.

Tournament Record: 4-5, 5 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (75.5); Alex Franklin 16.3; Edwin Ubiles 15.2; Ryan Rossiter 13.9; Clarence Jackson 13.6.

Rebounds: Team (38.3); Ryan Rossiter 11.1; Alex Franklin 8.0.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (14.5/12.2); Ronald Moore 7.8/2.9; Edwin Ubiles 2.3/1.9.

3-pointers: Team (.323); Clarence Jackson 71; Edwin Ubiles 28.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: The Saints can only wish their first-round game was played at home, where they've won 38 in a row. Even so, they're the first team to win three straight MAAC titles since La Salle 20 years ago. Keep an eye on Rossiter, who can get lost in the shuffle.

---Notre Dame

South Bend, Ind., 23-11.

Nickname: Fighting Irish. Coach: Mike Brey.

Conference: Big East. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 6.

Tournament Record: 30-33, 29 years. Last appearance: 2008.

Scoring: Team (76.0); Luke Harangody 22.4; Tim Abromaitis 16.3; Ben Hansbrough 11.8; Tory Jackson 9.8.

Rebounds: Team (35.6); Luke Harangody 9.2; Tyrone Nash 5.3; Tim Abromaitis 4.8; Carleton Scott 4.5.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (16.9/10.4); Tory Jackson 5.3/2.0; Ben Hansbrough 4.4/1.8.

3-pointers: Team (.394); Tim Abromaitis 81; Ben Hansbrough 64; Tory Jackson 41.

Last Ten: 6-4.

The Skinny: The Irish went on a run when Harangody missed five of six games late in the season with a deep right knee bruise. He looked healthy in the Big East tournament and make no mistake, Notre Dame is a much better team when the big guy is banging down low.

Old Dominion

Norfolk, Va., 26-8.

Nickname: Monarchs. Coach: Blaine Taylor.

Conference: Colonial Athletic Association. Bid: CAA champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 11.

Tournament Record: 2-9, 9 years. Last NCAA Appearance: 2007.

Scoring: Team (67.5); Gerald Lee 14.6; Frank Hassell 8.9; Ben Finney 8.8; Kent Bazemore 8.4.

Rebounds: Team (39.2); Frank Hassell 6.6; Ben Finney 5.9; Gerald Lee 4.9; Keyon Carter 4.9; Kent Bazemore 4.2.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (15.5/12.8); Darius James 3.4/1.7; Kent Bazemore 3.3/2.0; Ben Finney 2.4/1.5.

3-pointers: Team (.316); Ben Finney 34; Darius James 33.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: Lee is the unquestioned leader of the Monarchs whose father, Gerald Sr., played professionally in Finland. Lee went to high school at a place called Uusikaupunki - think the Old Dominion coaching staff had a tough time pronouncing that one?

---Baylor

Waco, Texas, 25-7.

Nickname: Bears. Coach: Scott Drew.

Conference: Big 12 . Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 3.

Tournament Record: 3-7, 5 years. Last appearance: 2008.

Scoring: Team (77.6); LaceDarius Dunn 19.4; Tweety Carter 15.7; Ekpe Udoh 13.9; Quincy Acy 9.3.

Rebounds: Team (39.1); Ekpe Udoh 9.8; Quincy Acy 5.1; Anthony Jones 4.9; LaceDarius Dunn 4.8.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (14.0/13.9); Tweety Carter 6.1/2.7; Ekpe Udon 2.6/2.4.

3-pointers: Team (.390); LaceDarius Dunn 105; Tweety Carter 72.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: Drew is considered one of the most controversial coaches in the Big 12 because of his perceived negative recruiting. When he gets guys on the court, though, he can coach. Has it really been seven years since Dave Bliss left the program in shambles?

Sam Houston State

Huntsville, Texas, 25-7.

Nickname: Bearkats. Coach: Bob Marlin.

Conference: Southland. Bid: Southland champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 14.

Tournament Record: 0-1, 1 year. Last appearance: 2003.

Scoring: Team (80.4); Gilberto Clavell 16.7; Corey Allmond 15.8; Ashton Mitchell 12.6; Preston Brown 9.2.

Rebounds: Team (37.9); Gilberto Clavell 6.4; Josten Crow 5.8; Preston Brown 5.2; Lance Pevehouse 4.1.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (20.5/13.5); Ashton Mitchell 5.0/2.8; Josten Crow 3.9/1.3; Drae Murray 3.7/1.5; Lance Pevehouse 2.3/1.0; Corey Allmond 2.3/1.4.

3-pointers: Team (.381); Corey Allmond 91; Ashton Mitchell 50; Lance Pevehouse 39; Preston Brown 31.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: The Bearkats are making their second trip to the NCAA tournament, and it's been seven years coming. Clavell played for Puerto Rico in the U19 world championships a couple years ago, and in the 2006 Tournament of the Americas against Miami Heat star Michael Beasley, Jonny Flynn of the Minnesota Timberwolves, and Duke star Kyle Singler.

---Richmond

Richmond, Va., 26-8.

Nickname: Spiders. Coach: Chris Mooney.

Conference: Atlantic 10. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 7.

Tournament Record: 6-7, 7 years. Last appearance: 2004.

Scoring: Team (69.3); Kevin Anderson 17.8; David Gonzalvez 14.5; Justin Harper 10.6.

Rebounds: Team (33.0); Justin Harper 5.5; David Gonzalvez 4.2; Dan Geriot 4.1.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (12.7/11.3); Kevin Anderson 2.6/2.4; David Gonzalvez 2.3/1.6; Dan Geriot 2.0/1.6.

3-pointers: Team (.351); David Gonzalvez 74; Ryan Butler 52; Justin Harper 41; Kevin Anderson 37.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: The year couldn't have been more charmed for the Spiders, who set a school-record for regular-season wins and was ranked for the first time in 24 years. Anderson was voted A-10 player of the year and scored 31 against Wake Forest at South Padre Island.

St. Mary's, Calif.

Moraga, Calif., 26-5.

Nickname: Gaels. Coach: Randy Bennett.

Conference: West Coast. Bid: WCC champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 10.

Tournament Record: 1-5, 5 years. Last appearance: 2008.

Scoring: Team (79.5); Omar Samhan 20.9; Mickey McConnell 13.7; Matthew Dellavedova 12.5; Ben Allen 10.8.

Rebounds: Team (36.8); Omar Samhan 11.0; Ben Allen 7.6.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (16.5/11.6); Mickey McConnell 5.3/2.2; Matthew Dellavedova 4.5/1.9; Ben Allen 2.2/1.5.

3-pointers: Team (.412); Matthew Dellavedova 70; Mickey McConnell 67; Clint Steindl 48; Ben Allen 43.

Last Ten: 8-2.

The Skinny: The Gaels' 81-62 rout of Gonzaga in the conference title game was no fluke, and Samhan has the size (6-11, 265) to create problems. The biggest question is whether he can keep a cool head. Samhan was hit with a technical against the 'Zags and has been known to get into foul trouble.

---Villanova

Philadelphia, 24-7.

Nickname: Wildcats. Coach: Jay Wright.

Conference: Big East. Bid: At large.

Region: South. Seed: No. 2.

Tournament Record: 48-30, 30 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (82.5); Scottie Reynolds 18.5; Corey Fisher 13.7; Antonio Pena 10.9; Corey Stokes 9.5.

Rebounds: Team (39.0); Antonio Pena 7.4; Taylor King 5.6; Reggie Redding 4.7; Corey Stokes 4.0.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (13.9/13.8); Corey Fisher 4.0/2.1; Scottie Reynolds 3.3/2.6; Reggie Redding 2.6/1.5.

3-pointers: Team (.376); Scottie Reynolds 67; Corey Stokes 55; Taylor King 38; Corey Fisher 36.

Last Ten: 4-6.

The Skinny: This was the school-record sixth straight 20-win season for the Wildcats, and Reynolds has been around for four of them. The senior joined Kerry Kittles as the only Villanova players with at least 2,000 points and 400 assists. If he gets shut down, look for Fisher to try to get to the basket.

Robert Morris

Pittsburgh, 23-11.

Nickname: Colonials. Coach: Mike Rice.

Conference: Northeast. Bid: Northeast champion.

Region: South. Seed: No. 15.

Tournament Record: 1-6, 6 years. Last appearance: 2009.

Scoring: Team (68.5); Karon Abraham 13.4; Rob Robinson 9.9; Mezie Nwigwe 8.2; Velton Jones 8.2.

Rebounds: Team (35.1); Rob Robinson 5.5; Russell Johnson 5.1; Dallas Green 4.9; Mezie Nwigwe 4.3.

Assists/Turnovers: Team (12.5/14.7); Velton Jones 2.9/2.4; Mezie Nwigwe 2.5/2.0.

3-pointers: Team (.365); Karon Abraham 80; Russell Johnson 26.

Last Ten: 7-3.

The Skinny: The Colonials played in their ninth NEC tournament title contest but first on the road. It didn't seem to matter against Quinnipiac. The key to Robert Morris making any headlines is balance, with several players who can score.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Mayweather picked to beat De La Hoya
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya and his rival Floyd Mayweather Jr. arrived at the MGM Grand here Wednesday amid the pomp and pandemonium befitting two of the biggest stars in the sport who are about to duke it out for the WBC super welterweight crown this Saturday (Sunday in Manila).

As of Wednesday, MySportsbook.com closed its book with Mayweather a favorite to defeat De La Hoya at -170 (a $100 bet wins $70), while De La Hoya is a +140 underdog (a $100 bet wins $140).

Mayweather arrived at about 11:30 a.m. on a big truck with his face and a big "World's Best Pound-for-Pound" sign scribbled across the vehicle. He was accompanied by his entourage made up of rappers and his training team.

A crowd of close to 3,000 eager fans packed the MGM Grand lobby, with their cameras in tow, all trying to vie for position to get a good angle at Mayweather, who is acknowledged as the world's best fighter pound-for-pound.

Eric Gomez, Golden Boy Promotions vice-president, described the fan turnout as "amazing" and swore he had never seen anything quite like this event.

"The crowd was fantastic. Everybody was just too eager to see the two fighters," said ALA manager Michael Aldeguer, who was among those who waited at the lobby together with his ward Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista and AJ Banal.

De La Hoya made his own grand entrance at the hotel lobby at around 12:30 p.m. accompanied by GBP chief executive officer Richard Schaefer and trainer Freddie Roach.

The same group of fans who trooped to see Mayweather also lingered around to get a close look at De La Hoya, who has been secretly working out at a Las Vegas gym for days after arriving from his main training camp in Puerto Rico.

The golden boy then took part in a closed-door afternoon workout with Bautista and Banal. The two, along with Aldeguer and wife Christine, as well as an HBO crew were the only ones allowed inside the gym.

De La Hoya and Mayweather take part in today's final press conference before the official weigh-in this Friday.

Ring Magazine, the acknowledged bible of boxing, reported in its June 2007 issue that 12 out of 20 boxing experts it interviewed have favored Mayweather to defeat De la Hoya, with only 8 favoring the latter.

But Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao said in a recent interview with The Freeman's Emmanuel Villaruel that De La Hoya will win by unanimous decision over Mayweather.

MySportsbook.com Favors Fighting Irish to win College Football betting odds

According to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, on January 8, the Fighting Irish faithful may be toasting their 14th national title in Arizona – Notre Dame’s first national championship in close to 20 years.

Although MySportsbook.com has listed Notre Dame as the 5-1 favorite to win thecollege football College Football betting, fans in Columbus do not need to cancel their tickets to Glendale just yet.  The Ohio State Buckeyes, listed right behind the Irish at 7-1, are also heavy favorites to win college football’s most coveted prize, while West Virginia, USC and the 2007 National Champion Texas Longhorns - all listed at 8-1 – are strong contenders as well.

MySportsbook.com has also posted gambling odds on the conference championships for the ACC, Big 12 and SEC.  In the ACC – it could be anyone’s title, particularly for the two schools from the Sunshine State.  Florida State and Miami, both listed at 2-1, are favored to win the ACC Championship Game odds, with the ‘Noles hoping to finish in the nation’s top 10 for the first time in five years, and the ‘Canes looking to avenge their 10-7 loss against FSU in last year’s ACC Championship betting.

Moving west to the Big 12, MySportsbook.com has betting lines listing Texas as 7-5 favorites to repeat as conference champions, even though the Longhorns lost their national championship-winning quarterback Vince Young to the NFL.  In the south, the Auburn Tigers – led by Heisman-hopeful senior running back Kenny Irons – have been given the best odds to win the SEC Championship odds at 5-2.
