NCAA Football Betting Lines
08/05/2010 -
Park Ridge, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Big Ten Conference announced Thursday
that Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis has been chosen as the proposed site
for the inaugural football championship game in 2011.
The conference office will begin a 30-day window to negotiate a one-year
agreement with Indiana Sports Corp and the stadium to host the title game.
"We are excited to work with Indiana Sports Corp and Lucas Oil Stadium to
finalize an agreement to hold the inaugural Big Ten Football Championship Game
in the city of Indianapolis," Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said. "We felt
at this time it was important to identify a site for the first championship
game and then spend more time with other cities and venues with respect to
both our basketball tournaments and the football championship in the future."
The Big Ten was among the many conferences that recently helped change the
landscape of collegiate athletics, adding perennial power Nebraska to the fold
back in June, the first new member since Penn State joined 20 years ago. The
move comes into effect on July 1, 2011.
The 115th season of Big Ten football kicks off on Thursday, September 2 as
Indiana hosts Towson, Minnesota plays at Middle Tennessee State and Ohio State
hosts Marshall.

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.
