NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

04/29/2010 - South Orange, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Seton Hall basketball player Herb Pope was rushed to the hospital Wednesday after collapsing during an afternoon workout session.

The Newark Star-Ledger reported he was rushed to St. Barnabas Hospital and underwent testing. No further details have been released.

Pope led the Big East in rebounding with 10.7 per-game last season, along with 11.5 points and 2.0 assists. He then declared for the NBA draft but did not hire an agent.

The 6-8 transfer forward from New Mexico State has experienced multiple issues in his life. While at New Mexico State, Pope was shot in March 2007 after leaving a party. Also, in the final game of the 2009 season against Texas Tech -- a first round matchup of the National Invitational Tournament -- Pope was ejected after punching a player twice below the belt.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
