Alabama starts BCS title defense with rout of San Jose State
NCAA Football Betting Lines
09/04/2010 -
Tuscaloosa, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eddie Lacy and Trent Richardson each rushed
for a pair of touchdowns, and top-ranked Alabama began defense of its BCS
national title with a 48-3 win over San Jose State.
Greg McElroy and A.J. McCarron each had a TD pass for the Crimson Tide (1-0),
who were without two key players. Heisman Trophy winning running back Mark
Ingram sat out after undergoing surgery on his left knee Tuesday. Defensive
end Marcell Dareus was ruled ineligible for two games by the NCAA due to his
dealings with sports agents.
McElroy connected on 13-of-15 passes for 218 yards, while McCarron finished
9-of-15 for 116 yards. Lacy rushed for 111 yards.
Julio Jones made a one-handed touchdown catch in the second quarter as the
Crimson Tide rolled to a 31-3 halftime lead. Alabama, which had 591 yards of
total offense, has a big game next Saturday by hosting current No. 19 Penn State.
Harrison Waid's first-quarter field goal provided the lone score for the
Spartans (0-1), who are under the guidance of new head coach Mike MacIntyre
and are coming off a 2-10 campaign.
Jordan La Secla completed 7-of-14 passes for 85 yards and was picked off once
for the Spartans, who were limited to 175 yards of offense.
McElroy led the Tide to a touchdown on the opening eight-play, 71-yard drive.
Richardson capped it with a four-yard TD run just 4:22 into the game.
A 32-yard run by Brandon Rutley, combined with a 15-yard face mask penalty,
set San Jose State up in Alabama territory. Harrison booted a 31-yard field
goal with 7:26 left in the opening quarter.
Less than three minutes later, McElroy found Marquis Maze along the right
sideline for a 48-yard TD pass and a 14-3 cushion.
Lacy fumbled the ball away into the end zone later in the first quarter, but
the Tide gained a 21-3 lead in the opening minute of the second when
Richardson broke off a 39-yard TD run up the middle.
The highlight of the night, though, came with 11:48 to go in the half. Jones
took a pattern deep down the field. McCarron, a redshirt freshman, led him a
bit too far, but Jones used his left hand to corral the ball as he landed on
the goal line.
Waid hit the right upright on a 41-yard field goal try later in the second and
Cade Foster capped the half by splitting the uprights from 41 yards out.
Lacy, another redshirt freshman, scored on a 37-yard run early in the third,
Foster added a 24-yard field goal later in the period, and Lacy ran up the
middle for a 10-yard score in the first minute of the fourth.
Game Notes
Alabama has compiled a 92-21-3 all-time record in season openers, including a
nine-game winning streak...San Jose State's last victory over a nationally-
ranked opponent came in the 2000 season when the Spartans defeated No. 9 TCU
featuring LaDainian Tomlinson, 27-24, in Spartan Stadium. The last time San
Jose State defeated a nationally-ranked foe on the road was in 1980, against
Baylor...San Jose State is 0-4 all-time against Southeastern Conference
opponents.

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.
