Robert Morris wins second straight Northeast Conference title
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
03/10/2010 -
Hamden, CT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Karon Abraham scored 16 points on 7-of-14
shooting, and Robert Morris secured its second straight Northeast Conference
Tournament championship and a trip to the NCAA Tournament with a thrilling
52-50 win over Quinnipiac.
Abraham added three steals for the second-seeded Colonials (23-11), who won
their seventh conference championship in school history. Dallas Green and
Russell Johnson each provided nine points in the exciting victory.
James Feldeine scored 17 points to lead the top-seeded Bobcats (23-9), who
were denied their first trip to the NCAA Tournament since becoming a Division
I program in 1998-99. Justin Rutty contributed 12 points and 10 boards in
defeat.
This game was played on Quinnipiac's home floor, where the team had been 14-0
this season entering the game.
Feldeine missed a deep two-point jumper with 51 seconds left that would have
tied the game, but instead Robert Morris maintained a 50-48 advantage.
Abraham went to dribble up the court but slipped and was called out of bounds
with 19.3 ticks on the clock, giving the Colonials another chance. Feldeine
again tried a deep jumper, but the shot was blocked and knocked out of bounds
by a Quinnipiac player with 9.3 seconds left.
Green and James Johnson traded a pair of free throws, leading to a trip to the
line for Abraham with 2.8 seconds left. Normally an 87 percent free throw
shooter, Abraham missed both, but a desperation heave from beyond half court
fell well short of the basket.
Quinnipiac put together an 11-0 run over about five minutes in the first half
to take a 15-10 lead on a pair of Jeremy Baker free throws, but Robert Morris
was able to trim that deficit to 25-23 at halftime.
Neither team held more than a four-point lead at any time in the second half,
and that margin last came with 16 minutes left on a Feldeine jumper. Robert
Morris went back ahead by three, 44-41, on a Rob Robinson basket with 6:12 to
play, but Rutty came back to tie the game at 48-all for the Bobcats on a pair
from the line with 1:41 on the clock.
Velton Jones followed with a made shot for the Colonials for a 50-48 contest.

American Idol odds : Blake Lewis the Early Standout
An important American Idol betting lines recap from February 20 Guys episode. The 12 men came out flat overall with Blake Lewis appearing to have the early edge after the first hour and a half.
Rudy - was quite good singing "Free Ride" to start off. Randy was not impressed though. Paula thought he started off fantastic. "Never had anyone stop off so lively" said Paula but Simon (who does not like Rudy) does not feel he has a distinct voice and was not impressed either.
Brandon was a little pitchy according to Randy and Paula agreed. Simon said he was a good singer but the song was "too safe" and he needs to make an impact. He was listed at +1200 odds or $1200 paid out on a $100 bet should he win the competition.
Big favorite Sundance came in with a flat version of "Knights in White Satin" and the judges let him have it, including Paula. Randy claimed the song was out of pitch throughout.
Korean American - and a Jenny Woo favorite - Paul Kim was up next. Another pitchy flat one but Randy said he still liked his potential. Kim at +3000 odds was said to have sung a "third rate version of that (George Michael) song" according to Simon Cowell. He sang "Careless Whisper".
22 year old Chris Richardson was up next. He was listed with +1100 odds coming in. He got the best response from the judges though Simon did not believe the vocal was that great.
Nick was boring and pitchy. Simon didn't think he was that bad though and predicted he would be back next week. Nick Pedro was a big +3000 dog coming into this competition.
Beat boxer Blake Lewis was listed with early +1000 odds or $1000 payout on a $100 bet if he were to become the next American Idol winner odds . These of course were the early odds. He was considered original for picking an "odd song". He did not beat box and the judges felt it was the best vocal of the night.
Sanjaya came in as the second biggest favorite after Chris Sligh but his performance Tuesday night was not very good.
Chris Sleigh was the early favorite at +450 odds. Great voice and a great sense of humor. He's a real standout. Randy felt it was on point but maybe ahead of the chorus a little bit. Simon Cowell said he felt like he was in some "sort of weird student gig".
Jared Cotter followed. He was listed with +2000 odds early on to win the competition. The judges felt he needs to take more risks but looked good.
22-year old AJ Talbado, who has tried out for American Idol five times, was up next. "Kind of a theme park performance" said Simon. Though the judges felt he performed okay. Simon did feel AJ might be better than he originally thought.
Phil - this season's military favorite - came into this competition with +1200 odds to win the competition. He was the last to perform. He was certainly strong enough to get through this stage of the competition and perhaps the best one after a shaky start.
Tomorrow night, the ladies perform and I sure hope they do a better job than the boys. Check out all the American Idol betting odds here.
