Golf Betting Lines

06/19/2010 - Galloway, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - M.J. Hur fired a seven-under 64 Saturday to take a one-stroke lead after two rounds of the ShopRite LPGA Classic.

Hur, who collected her lone LPGA Tour win last year, finished 36 holes at 11- under-par 131. She missed the tournament's 36-hole scoring record by one shot.

Paula Creamer posted a six-under 65 to move into second place at minus-10. This is Creamer's first start since thumb surgery back in April.

Katherine Hull fired an eight-under 63 to jump into a share of third place at nine-under-par 133. She was joined there by Ai Miyazato (67).

Hee-Won Han (67) and Inbee Park (68) are one stroke further back at minus- eight.

Hur poured in three birdies in a four-hole span from the third to climb to minus-seven on the Bay Course at Dolce Seaview Resort & Spa. She faltered to a bogey on the par-three seventh for the second day in a row.

The 20-year-old recovered that lost stroke with a birdie on the ninth. Hur made it two in a row as she birdied the 10th for the second straight day.

Hur moved to nine-under with a birdie on the 13th, then joined Creamer atop the leaderboard with a birdie on the par-three 15th. Hur closed with her second birdie in two days on the 18th to take the first 36-hole lead of her LPGA Tour career.

"Friday there was no wind, so it was a great day. Today, a little bit of wind started, so I was worried about the wind when I started," Hur stated.

Creamer opened her round with a 25-foot birdie putt on the first. She got up and down for birdie from a bunker on the third to get to six-under.

After a pair of pars, Creamer rolled in a seven-footer for birdie on the sixth and posted her fourth birdie of the front nine on No. 8, where she kicked in a one-footer.

Around the turn, Creamer birdied the 10th from five feet out, but gave that stroke back on the 11th when she missed the green with her tee shot.

Creamer erased that mistake with a six-foot birdie putt on the 12th. After five straight pars, she poured in a long birdie putt at the last to end at 10- under.

First-round leader Sherri Steinhauer managed an even-par 71 to slide into a share of seventh at seven-under-par 135. She was joined there by Morgan Pressel, who carded a five-under 66.

NOTES: This event was off the schedule the last three years...Seon Hwa Lee, the 2006 champion, carded a 67 to move into a share of ninth at minus- six...The cut line fell at one-over-par 143 with 79 players advancing to the weekend, including Michelle Wie and Brittany Lincicome, who both made the cut on the number...Among those who missed the cut were Alexis Thompson, who was making her professional debut, Meg Mallon and 2000 champion Janice Moodie.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
