NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
03/10/2010 -
Katy, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eddie Williams scored 22 points and grabbed eight
rebounds, and the second-seeded Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks crushed the
seventh-seeded Texas-Arlington Mavericks, 77-54, in quarterfinal action of the
Southland Conference Tournament.
Orren Tims added 17 points for the Lumberjacks (22-8), who advanced to play
either Texas A&M-Corpus Christi or UTSA in the semifinals on Thursday. Denzel
Barnes contributed with 11 points, while Jereal Scott had 10 points with eight
rebounds in the win.
Marquez Haynes led the Mavericks (16-14) with 17 points, but Texas-Arlington
couldn't avoid finishing its season with four straight losses after shooting
just 34 percent from the field Wednesday. Dwight Gentry provided 12 points,
while Brandon Long had 10 in defeat.
The Lumberjacks got off to a quick start, jumping out to a 15-2 lead on a Tims
layup about seven minutes into the game. The Mavericks never recovered and
trailed by 20, 29-9, after a Barnes three-pointer with 7:47 to go.
Stephen F. Austin carried a 33-20 advantage into halftime and ran away with
the contest in the second half. A pair of Scott free throws had the
Lumberjacks ahead by 30, 62-32, and the outcome was never in doubt down the
stretch.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value
If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).
For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.
TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.
"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,' it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."
"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.
Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
