NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/08/2010 - Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ashton Gibbs scored a game-high 20 points, and 25th-ranked Pittsburgh crushed non-conference foe Robert Morris, 77-53, at Petersen Events Center.

Jermaine Dixon added 18 points for the Panthers (18-6), who had lost four of six and resume conference play on Friday against rival West Virginia. Brad Wanamaker had 12 points and 10 rebounds in the win for Pitt, which is a perfect 28-0 against Robert Morris in its history.

Karon Abraham led the Colonials (16-9) with 16 points, but Robert Morris' nine-game win streak came to a screeching halt. Russell Johnson added 11 points, while Velton Jones and Mezie Nwigwe had 10 each in the setback.

The Colonials held an early 16-11 lead after a Jones three, but Gibbs quickly tied the game at 21-all on a triple with nine minutes to go, and a long distance shot from Dixon gave Pittsburgh a 30-26 edge moments later.

Robert Morris fought back to tie the game, 32-32, on another Jones three, but Pittsburgh scored seven of the half's final eight points, and a Gilbert Brown layup made it 39-33 at halftime in favor of the Panthers.

The hosts then scored the first eight points of the second half, with Dixon's jumper providing a 14-point lead for Pittsburgh. A Wanamaker layup with just under 13 minutes left increased the margin to 57-37, and the outcome was never in doubt down the stretch.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl

NFL Super Bowl Betting

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.

Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.

The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
