Cornhuskers battle Red Raiders in Big 12 Tournament action
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
03/11/2010 -
Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The 23rd-ranked Texas A&M Aggies are the
fourth-seeded team in the Big 12 Conference Tournament, and they will play a
quarterfinal-round game against the surprising 12th-seeded Nebraska Cornhuskers today.
Next up for the winner of this game is a semifinal clash with either top-
seeded Kansas or ninth-seeded Texas Tech.
Not only did Nebraska manage to upset fifth-seeded Missouri yesterday, but the
game was rather lopsided, as the Cornhuskers cruised to a 75-60 triumph.
Nebraska has never won this tournament and owns a 6-13 record in the event
all-time. The Huskers racked up a 12-3 record against non-conference foes
during the regular season, but that mark was clearly overshadowed by a 2-14
record against Big 12 opponents. Still, the win in Wednesday first-round
affair offers renewed confidence.
Texas A&M has only won three of the 16 Big 12 Conference Tournament games it
has played, and the team is still in search of its first league crown. The
Aggies are certainly playing with a great deal of confidence right now, as
they closed out the regular season with three consecutive wins to move to 22-8
overall and 11-5 in conference. Last Saturday, they easily disposed of
Oklahoma in a 69-54 final on the road.
The Aggies beat the Cornhuskers, 64-53, back in January, but Nebraska still
owns an 11-7 advantage in the all-time series.
The Cornhuskers are a modest offensive team, averaging 66.3 ppg on 43.5
percent shooting from the floor heading into this tournament. Defensively, the
Cornhuskers were permitting 65.8 ppg by the end of the regular season, and
Ryan Anderson (11.0 ppg) was the only double-digit scorer on the roster.
Brandon Richardson was the best player for Nebraska yesterday, as he scored
19 points on 6-of-8 shooting from the floor. Anderson also shot 6-of-8 from
the field and finished with 16 points and nine rebounds. Both Jorge Brian Diaz
and Lance Jeter scored 10 points in the triumph, and Jeter added seven boards
and six assists. The Cornhuskers connected on 55.8 percent of their field
goal attempts against Missouri, including an 8-of-14 effort from three-point
range. They also shot 19-of-22 from the foul line, earned a 38-22 rebounding
advantage and limited Missouri to 33.9 percent shooting.
When fans discuss the best players in the Big 12, Texas A&M's Donald Sloan is
rarely mentioned. The fact of the matter is that while Sloan doesn't possess
impressive numbers in assists, rebounds or steals, his 17.9 ppg have been a
major key to the success of the Aggies this season. There is only one other
active double-digit scorer in the lineup for A&M, as Bryan Davis provides an
even 10.0 ppg. While Sloan, Davis and company are averaging 72.0 ppg, they
are limiting opponents to 64.4 ppg on 40.4 percent shooting from the field.
Against Oklahoma in the regular season the finale, the Aggies connected on 51
percent of their field goal attempts while limiting the Sooners to 36.2
percent. A 36-26 rebounding advantage also helped the cause.

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.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook
Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds. The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.
Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.
Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
