02/23/2012 - Iowa City, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The 16th-ranked Wisconsin Badgers will look to ground the Iowa Hawkeyes as they visit Carver-Hawkeye Arena for Big Ten Conference action.
This will be the second encounter of this season and 155th in history between Wisconsin and Iowa. The series is knotted up, 77-77, after Iowa upset the Badgers, 72-65, in the first bout of 2011-2012. Wisconsin is salivating at the second chance at the Hawkeyes, as it let the first one slip away by shooting an awful 3-of-28 from three-point range in the game.
Bo Ryan's Badgers come in with a 20-7 overall record after their 65-55 triumph over Penn State on Sunday. Wisconsin's three-point shooting seems to be on point, as it hit 11-of-22 from beyond the arc to power past the Nittany Lions. The victory made Wisconsin 9-5 in Big Ten play, which has it two games out of first place with four to play. The Badgers' success this season has been primarily due to its stifling defense, which leads the nation with an allowed average of only 51.1 ppg.
Wisconsin will go as far as its star point guard Jordan Taylor can carry it this season. Taylor leads the team with averages of 14.3 points and 4.2 assists per contest. The senior guard has been struggling lately, as he has gone 7-of-25 from the floor over the span of his last two games. While Taylor handles the ball, Ryan Evans and Jared Berggren do work in the trenches. Evans is averaging 10.6 points and 6.9 boards per game, while Berggren provides 10.5 points and 4.9 rebounds per outing. Ben Brust an additional scoring threat that Wisconsin has rode to victories this season.
The Hawkeyes will try to make it two straight after they upset Indiana on Sunday to improve to 14-13 overall this season. The 78-66 win was charged by Iowa's success from downtown, as it hit 9-of-18 from deep. Head coach Fran McCaffery will need to get his team to battle on the boards, as it owns a +4.5 rebounding advantage in its six Big Ten victories, and it has been outrebounded by 4.7 boards in its eight conference losses.
Iowa will look to Matt Gatens to lead the charge as it tries to defeat two ranked opponents in a row. Gatens has been sensational as of late, averaging 25.5 ppg while shooting 71 percent from three-point range in his last two games. Roy Devyn Marble has been helpful for Gatens, as he is averaging 11.1 points and 3.5 assists per game this season. Aaron White will battle the Badgers' bigs inside. White is providing 10.4 points and 5.6 boards per game in his rookie campaign.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
Be sure to log on to MySportsbook.com to check out the complete odds for NFL MVP as well as all of the new football related futures. With the popularity of NFL futures, these betting lines will be sure to change as the money comes in; get the early sports lines now.
