Duke uses late surge to fend off Virginia in ACC quarters

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Greensboro, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Singler scored 18 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, as fourth-ranked Duke pulled away late to earn a 57-46 victory over Virginia in the quarterfinals of the ACC Tournament at Greensboro Coliseum.

Jon Scheyer and Nolan Smith each chipped in 15 points for the top-seeded Blue Devils (27-5), who are trying for a record 18th ACC Tournament title and second in a row. Duke currently shares the mark of 17 tourney crowns with North Carolina, which has suffered through a miserable season and was eliminated in the first round by Georgia Tech on Thursday night.

Jeff Jones scored 15 points and Mike Scott added 14 with 11 rebounds for Virginia (15-16), which notched a 68-62 win over Boston College in the first round on Thursday. The Cavaliers, who were within two late in the contest, haven't been to the ACC semifinals since 1995.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
