Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Gilbert Brown poured in a game-high 19
points while pulling down six rebounds, as the 17th-ranked Pittsburgh Panthers
destroyed the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, 83-54, in the regular-season finale for
both clubs.
Ashton Gibbs added 13 points for the Panthers (24-7, 13-5 Big East), who will
be the No. 2 seed in the Big East tourney next week. Pittsburgh snuck past
Providence, 73-71, on Thursday to clinch a two-day bye in the tournament.
Coming into Saturday, the Panthers needed a victory combined with a win by
West Virginia over Villanova to secure the second seed. The Mountaineers
completed the first part of the equation for Pitt by claiming a 68-66 overtime
victory over the Wildcats.
Brad Wanamaker donated 12 points and five assists, while senior Jermaine Dixon
tallied 10 points in his final home game for the Panthers, who finished an
impressive 17-1 at home this season.
Mike Rosario finished with 14 points for the Scarlet Knights (15-16, 5-13),
who were coming off a loss to Seton Hall on Thursday. Austin Johnson and Mike
Coburn added 12 and 10 points, respectively, in defeat.
A Jonathan Mitchell layup and James Beatty three-pointer put Rutgers ahead 5-3
early on, but the Panthers scored the next 15 points to take control. Dixon
tallied six points during the run, which Dante Taylor capped with a layup for
an 18-5 margin with over 11 minutes to go.
Ahead 28-11 moments later, Pittsburgh ripped off seven consecutive points to
build a 24-point lead. Brown's trey capped the burst, making it a 35-11 game
with three minutes left. The score was 40-16 at the half.
Jonathan Mitchell's three-pointer had the Scarlet Knights within 50-28 five
minutes into the second half. The Panthers made it a full-on rout from there,
going on an 11-2 spurt. Dante Taylor's free throw made 61-30 with 11 minutes
to play.

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
