Clark, Louisville too much for struggling Hoyas

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/23/2009 - Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Earl Clark had 22 points and eight rebounds as the sixth-ranked Louisville Cardinals cruised to a 76-58 victory over the Georgetown Hoyas at Verizon Center.

Terrence Williams chipped in 10 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists while Samardo Samuels and Preston Knowles each donated 10 points for the Cardinals (22-5, 13-2 Big East), who have won their last four games.

Chris Wright had 12 points and Greg Monroe donated 10 points and five rebounds for the Hoyas (14-12, 5-10), who have dropped four of their last five games.

After giving up a pair of free throws to start the game, Louisville scored the next nine points for a 9-2 lead a bit over three minutes.

Several minutes later, the Hoyas cut the deficit to five points on a jumper from Austin Freeman, but the Cardinals got the next seven points and held a 23-11 lead on Knowles' three-pointer with 11 minutes left in the first half.

Louisville built its lead to 16 points after Samuels' slam dunk made it a 38-22 game with just over four minutes to play in the first half.

However, Jessie Sapp scored the final seven points of the half and his buzzer- beating long three-ball cut the deficit to 41-31 heading into the locker room.

DaJuan Summers' jumper got the Hoyas to within eight points, 50-42, with about 13 1/2 minutes to play.

However, Knowles countered with a jumper and, after a Wright shot was blocked, Edgar Sosa made it a 54-42 game on a layup.

Julian Vaughn then tipped in a shot for Georgetown and, after misses on both sides, Wright's slam attempt didn't fall and Clark buried a trey to give Louisville a 57-44 lead with under 10 minutes to play.

Freeman countered with a layup to cut the lead to 11 points, but Williams was fouled on a slam and he hit the free throw. After Freeman missed a jumper at the other end, Terrence Jennings connected on a basket for a 62-46 lead with a bit over seven minutes to play.

It proved too much for Georgetown to overcome as the Cardinals maintained a double-digit lead through the remainder of the game.

Game Notes

Louisville went 6-for-6 from three-point range in the first half and finished the game 8-for-12...Louisville hosts Marquette on Sunday...Georgetown plays at Villanova on Saturday...Georgetown still leads the series, 5-4.

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.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5

Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1

Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3
