03/08/2009 - East Lansing, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - In a game that was supposed to be for the Big Ten title, the 19th-ranked Purdue Boilermakers battle the eighth-ranked Michigan State Spartans in a less meaningful matchup at the Breslin Center today. This game was designed for the top two teams in the conference to clash for the regular season championship, but it didn't work out that way. Instead, Purdue dropped a couple of games down the stretch and MSU used a four-game winning streak to win the outright title.
The Boilermakers meanwhile, still have something to play for, as they are trying to lock up sole possession of second place with a win today. Purdue could have accomplished that feat on Wednesday, but was instead knocked off by Northwestern, 64-61. Despite the loss, Purdue is already assured a first-round bye in the upcoming league tourney and that is certainly a positive.
As for MSU, it defeated Indiana, 64-59, on Tuesday to secure its fifth regular-season Big Ten Championship under head coach Tom Izzo and its firs outright title since 1999. The Spartans are a healthy 24-5 overall and 14-3 within the conference and are making a strong push towards a No.1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
MSU and Purdue are meeting for the 106th time today, with the Boilermakers holding a 62-43 lead in the rivalry. The Boilermakers knocked off MSU, 72-54, earlier this season, but the Spartans have won the last eight meetings between the schools at the Breslin Center.
The Boilermakers made just 40.8 percent of their attempts from the floor compared to a 49.1 percent shooting performance by Northwestern, as they were upended on Wednesday. Purdue, which was outscored 36-26 in the second half, received 14 points from both E'Twaun Moore and Keaton Grant in the setback. JaJuan Johnson contributed 11 points, and Robbie Hummel had eight and six boards in the loss. On the season, Moore leads Purdue in scoring at 14.0 ppg and he is also grabbing 4.9 rpg and dishing out 2.9 apg. Johnson turns in 13.2 ppg and 5.9 rpg, while Hummel adds 12.4 ppg and a team-best 6.7 rpg to the lineup. As a whole, Purdue has thrived on defense, holding opponents to a mere 58.9 ppg and just 38.9 percent shooting from the field.
The Spartans knocked down 51.2 percent of their field goal tries and 5-of-11 three-point chances, as they clinched the outright title with a win over Indiana on Tuesday. MSU also went 15-of-22 at the foul line, in addition to holding a 29-22 edge on the glass. Kalin Lucas led the charge with 15 points and five assists, while Raymar Morgan had 14 points and seven rebounds. On the season, Lucas paces the Spartans in scoring at 14.6 ppg and he has also been in charge of setting up his teammates, handing out a team-best 4.6 apg. Morgan checks in with 11.4 ppg and 5.8 rpg for MSU, which is outrebounding foes by a healthy 9.8 rpg on the season.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
