Colorado Springs, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jeremy Roenick headlines a list of
five members that make up the United States Hockey Hall of Fame Class of
2010.
The class, which also includes Derian Hatcher, Kevin Hatcher, Art Berglund and
Dr. V. George Nagobads, will be enshrined on October 21 at HSBC Arena in
Buffalo, New York.
"These five individuals truly represent the very best of our sport in many
different facets, and their contributions have been truly extraordinary," said
Ron DeGregorio, president of USA hockey. "We look forward to their formal
induction in Buffalo this October."
Roenick spent 20 seasons in the NHL with Chicago, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Los
Angeles and San Jose and registered 513 goals and 1,216 points in 1,363 career
regular season games. He was named an NHL All-Star nine times and is the
second-highest American-born goal scorer in league history.
The 40-year-old advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals once, with Chicago in 1992,
and also played in two Olympic Winter Games.
Derian Hatcher played 16 seasons as a feared defenseman with the
Minnesota/Dallas franchise along with Detroit and Philadelphia. His most
notable accomplishment was becoming the first American-born captain to win the
Stanley Cup -- with the Stars in 1999. In 1,045 regular season games, Hatcher
scored 80 goals and recorded 331 points.
Kevin Hatcher, Derian's older brother, spent 17 seasons in the NHL as a
defenseman with Washington, Dallas, Pittsburgh, the Rangers and Carolina. He
scored 34 goals during the 1992-93 season to become one of only seven
defenseman in league history to surpass 30 goals in a season, and scored 227
times overall in 1,157 career regular season games.
Berglund had an extensive career in international hockey that spanned five
decades, serving on the administrative staff of more than 30 U.S. teams
in several worldwide tournaments. He served as the general manager of nine
U.S. Men's National Teams and eight U.S. National Junior teams and was also
involved with six U.S. Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Teams.
Dr. Nagobads served 34 years as the team physician for the University of
Minnesota men's ice hockey program and also served in the same role for five
U.S. Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Teams, among many other American international
hockey teams. He also spent some time serving as a physician for the Minnesota
North Stars from 1984-92.
He was also physician for the 1980 U.S. Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Team that
captured the gold medal in Lake Placid.

NCAA Football Betting
Many fans thought it was the best side in the nation by the end of last season. This year, the polls have built on Georgia's momentum and granted it the No. 1 preseason ranking, followed by Ohio State and USC. (The Associated Press has the Buckeyes at No. 2; USA Today took the Trojans.)
"To have people believing we have one of the best teams in the nation going into this thing, it's exciting for us," Bulldogs coach Mark Richt told the AP. "I don't think anything is guaranteed, but we certainly have put ourselves in position where at least the college football world thinks we're pretty good."
Georgia Bulldogs - 9.5 wins
There's no question they're good, but the Bulldogs have one of the toughest 12-game schedules in the nation, mostly because they play in the powerhouse Southeastern Conference. Away games at No. 15 Arizona State, No. 7 LSU and No. 10 Auburn loom large, with contests between the hedges versus No. 24 Alabama and No. 18 Tennessee as well as the World's Largest Cocktail Party in Jacksonville versus No.5 Florida.
Ohio State Buckeyes - 10 wins
Like the Bulldogs, the Buckeyes also have a number of tough road contests in 2008. After two scrimmages dressed up as real games versus Youngstown State and Ohio, it's off to face USC. Other tough away games include No.13 Wisconsin in October and No. 20 Illinois in November. Granted, it should be pretty easy sledding at the Horseshoe. In fact, the only ranked team that travels to Columbus is No. 22 Penn State, in October.
USC Trojans - 10.5 wins
A similarly light schedule awaits the Trojans of Southern California, which is why the oddsmakers' total is one win more and the over is currently commanding -150 odds. Pete Carroll's troops only play three ranked teams in 2008, and all of those games are at home. After what should be an easy trip to Virginia to start things off on Aug. 30, the Trojans get two weeks to prepare for Ohio State in Los Angeles. Their two other ranked opponents, No. 21 Oregon and No. 15 Arizona State, visit in consecutive weeks to start the month of October. After that, the competition eases up. Of course, this is the same highly-touted school that lost to Stanford in 2007 and Oregon State in 2006. And don't discount the fact that USC plays its biggest rivals, Notre Dame and UCLA, back-to-back to close out the regular season. On paper, the Trojans are far superior, but motivation will be high for the Irish and Bruins, especially if their historic foes are in national-title contention.
Odds to Win the Heisman Trophy
Tim Tebow, Florida - 7/2
He won it last year, so it's no surprise he's the favorite to do it again, making him just the second player to go back-to-back. Ohio State's Archie Griffin turned the trick in 1974 and 1975, and Tebow's coach, Urban Meyer, is pretty sure his star quarterback can match the Buckeyes legend.
"There has never been anyone quite like him," Meyer told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "I am very lucky to be his coach."
Chris Wells, Ohio State - 5/1
The man they call "Beanie" was a star recruit out of high school, so it's not like nobody knew who the star tailback was before he rushed for 576 yards as a freshman in 2006 and 1,609 as a sophomore. But perhaps his finest moment came last year versus Michigan when he rumbled for 222 yards and two touchdowns in the Buckeyes' 14-3 victory over the hated Wolverines.
Knowshon Moreno, Georgia - 8/1
If the Bulldogs are to live up to expectations, they'll need a huge effort from their sophomore running back. This might be the last year of college ball for Moreno, who rushed for 1,334 yards and for 14 touchdowns as a freshman, while adding 253 receiving yards on 20 receptions, so expect big things for the man from Belford, N.J.
