Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jonathan Kaye fired a course-record, eight-
under 63 Thursday to grab a two-stroke lead after the first round of the
Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational.
Kaye, a two-time winner on the PGA Tour, broke the course record by two
strokes on the Scarlet Course at Ohio State University Golf Club.
Scott Brown posted a 65 and is alone in second. D.J. Brigman, Nick Flanagan,
Tjaart van der Walt and William McGirt share third place at five-under 66.
Kaye tripped out of the gate with a bogey on the second. He erased that
mistake with a birdie on the fourth and came right back with another birdie at
the par-three fifth.
The 39-year-old birdied the next par-three, No. 8. Kaye followed that with a
hole-out eagle on the par-four ninth, which moved him to minus-four.
"I had a nice number and just tried to smooth an eight-iron 164 yards," Kaye
said of his eagle. "The ball had eyes on it when it hit on the green. It went
dead left, right in the cup."
Around the turn, Kaye picked up a birdie on the par-five 12th. He dropped in
back-to-back birdie efforts from the 15th to move one ahead of Brown.
Kaye closed with a birdie at the last to push his lead to two strokes.
Brown was in the second group out in the morning wave off the first tee. He
had a similar start to Kaye as he also bogeyed No. 2. Brown came back with
birdies on three and five.
A birdie on the eighth helped Brown make the turn at minus-two. He converted a
birdie chance on the 10th, then made eagle on the par-five 12th.
Brown birdied the 15th, then parred the final three holes to head to the
clubhouse with the early lead.
"This is a very good golf course," Brown stated. "The greens are soft and it
gives you a chance to be a little more aggressive, but you have to take some
chances too."
Daniel Summerhays, who became the first amateur to win on the Nationwide Tour
when he captured the 2008 crown, opened with a four-under 67. He was joined in
seventh place by David McKenzie, Camilo Benedetti, Joe Affrunti, Michael
Putnam and Kyle Stanley.
NOTES: Tommy Gainey, who earned his second win of the season last week and
took over the top spot on the tour's money list, opened with a one-over 72,
which left him tied for 77th...Benedetti aced the par-three eighth...There are
10 amateurs in the field this week with Russell Henley posting the best score,
a three-under 68.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
Michael Bush (RB, Louisville)
Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia)
Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville)
Chris Leak (QB, Florida)

Ted Ginn (WR, Ohio State)
Darius Walker (RB, Notre Dame)
Drew Tate (QB, Iowa)

“You play to win the game!”
Those are the words of notoriously intense head coach Herman Edwards. Unfortunately, from a bettors’ perspective, most coaches don’t feel that way about the NFL preseason. August is a time to evaluate young players, finalize the depth chart and pray your star players stay healthy.
The trick to making money during the exhibition schedule is identifying coaches – like Edwards – who can’t stand losing even when there's nothing on the line.
The New York Jets betting won 15 of 21 preseason games and went 14-7 against the spread (ATS) during Edwards’s five-year tenure with the club. In his first season as the Kansas City Chiefs field boss, the team improved from 0-4 to 2-2.
Identifying win-a-holics like Edwards is a good start if you plan betting the preseason – even though most say you shouldn’t ... but what the hell do they know anyway?
Here’s a brief rundown of two teams that have a habit of winning during the second-stringers’ season, and another club that has a good chance of exceeding this year.
New York Giants betting lines
Playing in the media hub of North America can be stressful but the press can’t write anything negative about the way Tom Coughlin’s boys play in the preseason. The Giants won and covered all four games last summer, improving their record to 7-1 both straight up (SU) and against the spread over the last two years.
Coughlin has shown he’s not afraid to give his starters more time in the second preseason game than most of his colleagues, no doubt one of the reasons his team has been so dominant.
Dallas Cowboys betting lines
Bettors can count on America’s team early on. The Cowboys are 14-6 both SU and ATS since 2002 in warm-up contests. Former coach Bill Parcells, the coach of the team the last four years, has an intimidating, in-your-face presence – surely a reason Dallas has had so much early success.
The Big Tuna won’t be strolling the sidelines with looks of disgust, but new coach Wade Phillips will be anxious to make a good first impression for owner Jerry Jones.
Dallas plays the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos before things get serious. They then face the Houston Texans in their third contest (the game starters see most game time) and finish off with the Minnesota Vikings.
Expect a Dallas team able to walk away with another 3-1 preseason record.
Oakland Raiders betting lines
This team scored a league-worst 12 offensive touchdowns last season, so the rookies and veterans each have something to prove. There’s a bounty of first-unit jobs up for grabs and plenty of bodies competing for those slots.
First-time head coach Lane Kiffin will be eager to impress an owner who employs the philosophy, “Just win, baby!”
The 32-year-old Kiffin has to command respect from a locker room full of players older than him. All of these factors should lead to purpose in preseason.
Don’t forget: before playing like a team that belonged in NFL Europe, Oakland went 4-1 (both SU and ATS) in exhibition games.
