Tigers take on Eagles in Chestnut Hill

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/10/2009 - Chestnut Hill, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two ACC squads trying to get back in the win column hook up at the Conte Forum tonight, as the Boston College Eagles entertain the 12th-ranked Clemson Tigers in Chestnut Hill.

The Eagles were in play just this past Sunday, when they were handled, 93-76, by Wake Forest. The loss brought the team's five-game winning streak to an abrupt end and dropped it to a still solid 18-7 overall and 6-4 within the conference. BC now returns back to the Conte Forum, where it has gone a respectable 12-3 on the campaign.

As for the Tigers, they trounced Duke (74-47) last Wednesday to catch the eye of any doubters, but on Saturday, they suffered a major letdown and were nipped at home by then unranked Florida State, 65-61. The surprising loss ended a three-game win streak by Clemson, which fell to 19-3 overall and 5-3 in league play. Still, with a triumph tonight, the Tigers would reach the 20- win plateau for the third straight season, a feat the program has never accomplished before.

Clemson leads the all-time series with BC, 6-3, and has won the last two meetings. The Eagles however, are a perfect 3-0 when taking on the Tigers in Chestnut Hill.

The Tigers are forcing opponents into 17.7 turnovers per game and they have capitalized on those miscues, averaging a hardy 78.1 pg on the season. Trevor Booker is the team's leading scorer (14.9 ppg) as well as rebounder (8.8 rpg) and he also has 53 blocks to his name. KC. Rivers has provided a nice complement to him with 14.2 ppg and 6.2 rpg, while Terrence Oglesby checks in with 13.0 ppg on the strength of 39.4 percent shooting from long range. On Saturday, Clemson let a 19-point second-half lead get away, as FSU closed out the game with a 23-4 run for the 65-61 upset. It was a complete collapse by the Tigers, who went just 6-of-24 from long range and were guilty of 18 mishaps. Booker and Demontez Stitt both scored 11 points to pace Clemson in defeat, while Rivers and Raymond Sykes chipped in with 10 points apiece.

The Eagles have done a sound job at the offensive end of the court this season, as they are scoring 76.4 pg and shooting 44.8 percent from the field. Tyrese Rice is one of the more talented players in the ACC and he leads BC in scoring (18.0 ppg), assists (5.5 apg) and steals (39). Joe Trapani puts forth 13.9 ppg and a team-best 6.8 ppg and he has shown off his range by knocking down 37.3 percent of his attempts from three-point distance. Rakim Sanders adds 12.0 ppg and 4.2 rpg to the lineup, while Corey Raji contributes 10.8 ppg and 6.4 rpg. On Sunday, the Eagles committed 15 turnovers that resulted in 23 points for Wake Forest in a 93-76 setback. BC actually held a one-point edge at the break before allowing WF to shoot a blistering 65.5 percent from the floor in the second stanza. Trapani guided BC with 19 points, while Rice had 18 points and six boards.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
