Football Betting Lines

09/04/2010 - Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Tennessee Titans narrowed their roster to the NFL maximum of 53 players on Saturday, releasing 20 as part of their "cut- down day" maneuvers.

Released were defensive end Eric Bakhtiari, defensive end Raheem Brock, fullback Jed Collins, wide receiver Dominique Edison, running back Samkon Gado, defensive end Chris Harrington, cornerback Tye Hill, defensive tackle David Howard, guard Nick Howell, defensive tackle Joe Joseph, center Kevin Matthews, guard Nevin McCaskill, running back Alvin Pearman, tight end Steven Pfahler safety Myron Rolle, tight end Sean Ryan, quarterback Chris Simms, tackle Michael Toudouze, linebacker Patrick Trahan and wide receiver Paul Williams.

Notables among that group are Brock, an eight-year NFL veteran with the Colts (2002-09) who was signed last month; Gado, the ex-Packers starter who appeared in 15 games with the Rams last season; Hill, a former first-round draft choice of the Rams who was with Atlanta last season; Rolle, a sixth-round rookie who made headlines as a Rhodes Scholar at Florida State; and Simms, the former Buccaneers starter who was attempting to crack a depth chart already including QBs Vince Young and Kerry Collins.

Also on Saturday, the Titans placed linebacker David Thornton on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, and LB Gerald McRath was added to the Reserve/Suspended list.

Thornton, who will be ineligible to play for the first six games, has been bothered by knee and hip ailments. McRath will be suspended for the first four games due to a violation of the league's policy against performance-enhancing drugs.

The Titans open their 2010 season next Sunday, when they play host to the Oakland Raiders.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.

Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.

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.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5
