Roughriders hang on to top Lions in season openerFootball Betting Lines07/04/2009 - Regina, SK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Darian Durant threw for 313 yards and had a rushing touchdown to help the Saskatchewan Roughriders to a 28-24 win over the British Columbia Lions in the season opener for both clubs. Durant went 18-for-32 with three interceptions and added 35 yards on the ground for the Roughriders (1-0), who finished last season with a 12-6 record but lost to the Lions in the Western Semi-Final game. Hugh Charles had 14 carries for 34 yards and a score. Buck Pierce threw for 186 yards on 17-for-33 passing with a touchdown and two interceptions and added a touchdown on the ground for the Lions (0-1), who went 11-7 last season and lost to Calgary in the West Final. Emmanuel Arceneaux had three catches for 40 yards and a score. The Roughriders got the first score of the game as Durant's 10-yard touchdown run gave the team a 7-0 lead a bit over five minutes in, and Jamie Boreham got a single on the ensuing kickoff. The Lions answered later in the first as Ryan Phillips stepped in front of a pass and took it into the end zone from 60 yards out to make it an 8-7 game. A 37-yard field goal off the foot of Luca Congi late in the first quarter gave Saskatchewan an 11-7 lead. A bit over four minutes into the second quarter, Charles took the ball into the end zone from two yards out and on the Lions' ensuing drive, Stuart Foord recovered a Paul McCallum fumble and took it into the end zone from 12 yards out for a 25-7 lead. With close to two minutes left in the first half, British Columbia cut into its deficit as Arceneaux caught a 23-yard touchdown pass from Pierce to make it a 25-14 game going into the break. With under two minutes to play in the third quarter, Pierce ran the ball into the end zone from six yards out, but the two-point conversion failed and it was a 25-20 game heading into the final 15 minutes. A single from British Columbia a bit over a minute into the four quarter made it a four-point game, but a 22-yard field goal off the foot of Congi with a bit over eight minutes to play gave the Roughriders a 28-21 lead. The Lions had a golden opportunity to tie the game late in the fourth as a blocked punt gave the team the ball in Saskatchewan territory, but the Roughrider defense held tight and British Columbia was only able to get a 38- yard field goal from McCallum with 2:01 to play. The British Columbia defense held Saskatchewan on the ensuing possession to give the offense one last chance, but the Roughriders defense stood tall to hang on for the win. Game Notes Martell Mallett had six carries for 63 yards for British Columbia...Weston Dressler caught seven passes for 156 yards for Saskatchewan...The Roughriders defense has nine sacks in the game.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009Super 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.
