Kentucky clobbers ETSU in first-round matchup
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
03/18/2010 -
New Orleans, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eric Bledsoe scored a career-high 29 to go
with four steals, and the top-seeded Kentucky Wildcats blew out the East
Tennessee State Buccaneeers, 100-71, in a first-round matchup of the NCAA
Tournament.
Bledsoe went an incredible 8-of-9 from three-point range for the Wildcats
(33-2), who will next take on the winner of Texas/Wake Forest on Saturday in
an East Region matchup. Patrick Patterson went 9-of-10 from the field for 22
points, while John Wall posted a double-double with 17 points and 11 assists
in the lopsided victory.
UK, appearing in this tourney for the 50th time, is beginning its road toward
an eighth national championship, with its last coming in 1998 under now-
Minnesota head coach Tubby Smith. With one more win, the Wildcats can secure
their first Sweet 16 appearance since 2005.
Micah Williams scored 19 to lead the Buccaneers (20-15), who captured their
second straight Atlantic Sun championship in 2009-10. Justin Tubbs added 15
points, while Adam Sollazzo contributed with 14 in defeat.
East Tennessee State held a 10-9 lead after a Tubbs three-pointer in the early
minutes, but Kentucky took over the game from there and never looked back. The
Wildcats responded with the next 14 points -- seven from Patterson -- and a
Wall jumper made it 23-10 with 13 minutes left.
Bledsoe later capped a 10-0 burst with eight straight points on three shots,
drilling a three-pointer for a commanding 37-14 margin with 7 1/2 minutes to
play in the opening half. UK held a dominant 54-26 advantage at halftime.
A Patterson three a little more than five minutes into the second half
expanded the Kentucky lead to 40, 77-37, and the Wildcats cruised to the
finish line.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
Michael Bush (RB, Louisville)
Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia)
Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville)
Chris Leak (QB, Florida)
