Golf Betting Lines
09/03/2010 -
Canonsburg, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Geoffrey Sisk was atop the leaderboard
Friday when the second round of the inaugural Mylan Classic was suspended due
to darkness.
Sisk, one of two first-round leaders, was minus-four for his round and 10-
under par for the tournament when play was called for the day.
There was a 80-minute weather delay that halted action. The second round was
suspended for the night by darkness at 7:50 p.m. (et) and will resume Saturday
at 7:45 a.m.
Dave Schultz was six-under through 17 holes to climb into second place at
minus-eight.
PGA Tour player Rocco Mediate, a native of nearby Greensburg, Pa., is one of
five players that shares the clubhouse lead at six-under-par 136.
Mediate, who is making his first career start in a Nationwide Tour event, shot
two-under 69 and was joined in third place by Jason Gore (67), Chris Nallen
(67), Kevin Kisner (68) and Mark Anderson (68).
Steve Wheatcroft, who grew up 10 minutes from Southpointe Golf Club, is also
minus-six and has one hole left in his second round.
Sisk started his round with a pair of pars before chipping in for his first
birdie on the par-three third. After the weather delay, he got to eight-under
with a birdie on the sixth.
The 45-year-old Sisk birdied the par-five eighth to move to minus-nine. He
parred three straight around the turn.
Sisk dropped in a birdie effort on the par-three 12th. He parred the next
three holes before play was halted for the night.
"I was a little nervous starting off because I just haven't been in this
position in a while," said Sisk. "I hit some good shots the first three holes.
The wind was very tricky to start the day, but I managed to calm down."
Canadian David Hearn is one of seven players tied for ninth at minus-five.
Scott Dunlap, who shared the first-round lead with Sisk, stumbled to a two-
over 73 to slide into a share of 18th at minus-four.
NOTES: Tommy Gainey, who could earn an automatic promotion to the PGA Tour
with a win, shot 73 to fall into a share of 27th...Arnold Palmer's grandson,
Sam Saunders, is playing on a sponsor's exemption. Saunders was five-over
after 13 holes to slide to plus-four overall, which left him tied for
104th...Twenty-seven players need to complete their second rounds on
Saturday.

NCAA Football Betting
Many fans thought it was the best side in the nation by the end of last season. This year, the polls have built on Georgia's momentum and granted it the No. 1 preseason ranking, followed by Ohio State and USC. (The Associated Press has the Buckeyes at No. 2; USA Today took the Trojans.)
"To have people believing we have one of the best teams in the nation going into this thing, it's exciting for us," Bulldogs coach Mark Richt told the AP. "I don't think anything is guaranteed, but we certainly have put ourselves in position where at least the college football world thinks we're pretty good."
Georgia Bulldogs - 9.5 wins
There's no question they're good, but the Bulldogs have one of the toughest 12-game schedules in the nation, mostly because they play in the powerhouse Southeastern Conference. Away games at No. 15 Arizona State, No. 7 LSU and No. 10 Auburn loom large, with contests between the hedges versus No. 24 Alabama and No. 18 Tennessee as well as the World's Largest Cocktail Party in Jacksonville versus No.5 Florida.
Ohio State Buckeyes - 10 wins
Like the Bulldogs, the Buckeyes also have a number of tough road contests in 2008. After two scrimmages dressed up as real games versus Youngstown State and Ohio, it's off to face USC. Other tough away games include No.13 Wisconsin in October and No. 20 Illinois in November. Granted, it should be pretty easy sledding at the Horseshoe. In fact, the only ranked team that travels to Columbus is No. 22 Penn State, in October.
USC Trojans - 10.5 wins
A similarly light schedule awaits the Trojans of Southern California, which is why the oddsmakers' total is one win more and the over is currently commanding -150 odds. Pete Carroll's troops only play three ranked teams in 2008, and all of those games are at home. After what should be an easy trip to Virginia to start things off on Aug. 30, the Trojans get two weeks to prepare for Ohio State in Los Angeles. Their two other ranked opponents, No. 21 Oregon and No. 15 Arizona State, visit in consecutive weeks to start the month of October. After that, the competition eases up. Of course, this is the same highly-touted school that lost to Stanford in 2007 and Oregon State in 2006. And don't discount the fact that USC plays its biggest rivals, Notre Dame and UCLA, back-to-back to close out the regular season. On paper, the Trojans are far superior, but motivation will be high for the Irish and Bruins, especially if their historic foes are in national-title contention.
Odds to Win the Heisman Trophy
Tim Tebow, Florida - 7/2
He won it last year, so it's no surprise he's the favorite to do it again, making him just the second player to go back-to-back. Ohio State's Archie Griffin turned the trick in 1974 and 1975, and Tebow's coach, Urban Meyer, is pretty sure his star quarterback can match the Buckeyes legend.
"There has never been anyone quite like him," Meyer told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "I am very lucky to be his coach."
Chris Wells, Ohio State - 5/1
The man they call "Beanie" was a star recruit out of high school, so it's not like nobody knew who the star tailback was before he rushed for 576 yards as a freshman in 2006 and 1,609 as a sophomore. But perhaps his finest moment came last year versus Michigan when he rumbled for 222 yards and two touchdowns in the Buckeyes' 14-3 victory over the hated Wolverines.
Knowshon Moreno, Georgia - 8/1
If the Bulldogs are to live up to expectations, they'll need a huge effort from their sophomore running back. This might be the last year of college ball for Moreno, who rushed for 1,334 yards and for 14 touchdowns as a freshman, while adding 253 receiving yards on 20 receptions, so expect big things for the man from Belford, N.J.
