03/18/2010 - Providence, RI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - First-round action in the South Region will take place this afternoon at the Dunkin' Donuts Center when the seventh-seeded Richmond Spiders take on the 10th-seeded Saint Mary's Gaels.
The Gaels are participating in their sixth NCAA Tournament this afternoon. Saint Mary's won its first-ever tournament game back in 1959 against Idaho, but after that it has been all downhill, as the team has dropped its last five contests in the Big Dance. This season the Gaels rolled through their competition, posting a 26-5 ledger, while also claiming the West Coast Conference Tournament title against Gonzaga.
The Spiders fell just short of the Atlantic 10 Conference Tournament title with a 56-52 loss to Temple in the championship game. Despite, the loss Richmond finished the season with an impressive 26-8 ledger, and the 26 victories tied a school record. That earned Richmond a spot in its eighth NCAA Tournament invitation and the team's first appearance in the Big Dance since 2004. Richmond is the only school to have posted victories in this tournament as the 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th-seed.
This will be just the second meeting between the two schools on the hardwood. The first matchup took place back in 1985 and the game was claimed by Richmond, as the Spiders defeated Saint Mary's, 75-63.
The winner in this matchup will move into the second round and will face either Robert Morris or Villanova.
The Gaels enter this tournament with four players averaging double figures, beginning with the West Coast Conference Defensive Player of the Year, Omar Samhan. Samhan finished with 94 blocks this year, but the center was even better offensively, averaging an impressive double-double of 20.9 ppg and 11.0 rpg. Ben Allen has been a solid contributor in the post as well, and comes into this game with 10.8 ppg and 7.6 rpg. In the backcourt the Gaels will rely on the duo of Mickey McConnell and Matthew Dellavedova. McConnell is leading the team with 165 assists, but he is also a dangerous scorer, netting 13.7 ppg behind a staggering 51.5 percent clip from behind the arc. As for Dellavedova, he is contributing 12.5 ppg, but has also been able to find the open player, doling out 141 assists on the season. Overall the Gaels come into this matchup producing 79.5 ppg. Saint Mary's is connecting on 48.7 percent of its attempts from the floor, but even more impressive is the team's 41.2 percent showing from behind the arc.
The success for Richmond can be attributed to the team's tenacious efforts at the defensive end of the court, as the Spiders are limiting the opposition to just 62.2 ppg on a 39.2 percent shooting effort. Opponents have also struggled from behind the arc against the Spiders, connecting on just 29.7 percent of their attempts from long range. A big part of Richmond's game is its ability to force turnovers, as opponents are committing on average, 15.1 turnovers per contest. At the other end of the floor the team has been led by the guard duo of Kevin Anderson and David Gonzalvez. Anderson, who was tabbed the A-10 Player of the Year, comes into this tournament averaging 17.8 ppg, to go along with a team-best 89 assists. As for Gonzalvez, he is contributing 14.5 ppg, 4.2 rpg and 79 assists, to go along with a team-best 64 steals.Taking care of business in the paint has been Justin Harper, who is posting 10.6 ppg, to go along with a team-high 5.5 rpg. As a whole however, the Spiders come into today's matchup averaging a modest 69.3 ppg.

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.
