Rebels and Tigers meet in Baton Rouge

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

01/17/2007 - Baton Rouge, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The 16th-ranked LSU Tigers have the talent in place for another run at the Final Four, and they are clearly favored in tonight's game against a talented yet inconsistent Ole Miss team.

On Saturday, Ole Miss managed to halt a three-game skid with a 74-72 victory over a talented Arkansas squad. That win enabled the Rebels to move to 12-5 overall and 9-1 at home, but they are just 1-2 in league play and 1-4 in true road games.

LSU is a stellar 10-1 at home, helping the squad earn a 12-4 overall record. The Tigers have won five of their last six games overall, and after dropping a 10-point decision to Alabama in the SEC opener, they rebounded for a 65-63 triumph over Auburn on Saturday.

LSU holds a 112-77 series lead over Ole Miss, including five straight wins over the Rebels.

There are four double-digit scorers in the lineup for Ole Miss, and Bam Doyne leads the club with 16.9 ppg. Clarence Sanders checks in with 15.4 ppg, and Dwayne Curtis adds 13.2 ppg and 10.0 rpg. Rounding out the foursome is Todd Abernethy with 10.7 ppg, and he has dished out 84 assists against only 27 turnovers. In the narrow win over Arkansas, Curtis dominated the paint to the tune of 20 points and 12 rebounds. Sanders totaled 13 points, as did Abernethy to go along with his six assists. Doyne netted 11 points for the Rebels, and Kenny Williams provided further balance off the bench with 10 points.

LSU forward Glen Davis entered this season with a great deal of notoriety after leading his Tigers to the Final Four last season, and the standout power forward has been outstanding through the first 16 games of this season. Davis is averaging 19.2 ppg on 51 percent shooting from the floor, and he is pulling down 10.9 ppg as well. Tasmin Mitchell adds 14.3 ppg and 6.8 rpg to the lineup, and Terry Martin is averaging 11.3 ppg through the eight games that he has played. LSU is posting 72.2 ppg overall while limiting opponents to 58.2 ppg on 37.7 percent shooting from the field. The Tigers are outrebounding foes by 8.1 rpg, an obvious key to the team's success. Martin poured in 23 points in the victory over Auburn on Saturday, as he nailed 5-of-9 three-pointers in that tilt. Mitchell added 12 points, while Davis finished with 11 points and 11 boards.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
