NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/11/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Norm Roberts is reportedly out as head coach at St. John's after six seasons with the Red Storm.

The New York Post cited sources within the university as saying Roberts won't be back for the 2010-11 season.

Roberts has a record of 81-100 at St. John's, and this year's squad posted the most wins in his tenure with a mark of 17-15. The Red Storm upended Connecticut in the first round of the Big East Tournament on Tuesday before coming up just short in a 57-55 loss to Marquette in the second round on Wednesday.

Before taking over the St. John's program, Roberts was an assistant at Kansas, Illinois, Tulsa and Oral Roberts. He was the head coach at Queens College, his alma mater, from 1991-96.

The Post story said St. John's has a wish list of candidates that includes Virginia Tech's Seth Greenberg, a Long Island native, as well as Hofstra's Tom Pecora and Siena's Fran McCaffrey.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)
