NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

01/10/2009 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis is the site of today's Horizon League clash between the 21st-ranked Butler Bulldogs and the Detroit Titans.

Detroit was most recently in action against Valparaiso on Thursday, and the result of that clash was a 64-41 beating. The Titans are now a woeful 0-5 in league play and own a 4-10 overall record. They have played nine true road games so far this season, and only one of those tilts resulted in a victory.

As for Butler, it is 4-0 in Horizon League play for the first time since the 2002-03 campaign. The Bulldogs have tied the best 14-game start in program history with their 13-1 overall record, and the team is 7-0 in Hinkle Fieldhouse this season. On Thursday, they rolled to a 64-48 decision over Wright State in front of the home crowd.

Butler owns a 37-27 series lead over Detroit. and the Bulldogs have won the last four meetings.

No a single player reached double figures in scoring for Detroit in the ugly loss to Valparaiso on Thursday. The Titans were grossly outplayed, as they turned the ball over 19 times and shot 36.8 percent from the floor, including 2-of-11 from three-point range. A 34-29 rebounding deficit also hurt the cause. Thomas Kennedy and Nemanja Jokic led the way in the setback with nine points apiece. Generating offense has been a glaring problem area for Detroit all season, as it is only scoring 55.6 ppg on 39.9 percent shooting from the field, including 28.7 percent from three-point range. Kennedy provides 10.6 ppg, but that average is not going to scare Butler heading into this tilt.

The Bulldogs put forth another outstanding defensive effort in their win over Wright State on Thursday, as they were able to limit the Raiders to 33.3 percent shooting from the floor, including 26.3 percent from three-point range. Butler also earned a 34-27 rebounding advantage and a 19-11 edge in points from the foul line. Matt Howard posted 14 points in the triumph, and Gordon Hayward added 12 points and 11 rebounds. Providing extra balance to the lineup was Willie Veasley with 11 points. Through 14 games, Howard is netting 14.0 ppg to go with 6.6 rpg and a team-high 20 blocks. Hayward checks in with 12.9 ppg, and Shelvin Mack is generating 12.7 ppg. The Bulldogs are averaging 69.0 ppg while allowing only 56.6 ppg.

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.
