Chockey Betting Lines

04/09/2010 - Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Hobey Baker Memorial Award Executive Committee announced Friday that University of Wisconsin forward Blake Geoffrion was named the 30th winner of college hockey's most prestigious individual honor.

Named after a legendary Princeton hockey player who died in World War I, the award recognizes strength of character in players both on and off the ice.

Geoffrion, a 22-year-old senior and grandson of Montreal Canadiens Hall-of- Famer Bernie Geoffrion, is the first player in the storied history of the Badgers program to win the award.

Entering Saturday's NCAA final, he has posted 28 goals and 50 points in 39 games, which includes 19 goals and 34 points in 25 Western Collegiate Hockey Association contests.

He is also the first player from the WCHA to win since forward Ryan Duncan was named the top collegiate player in 2007 as a sophomore.

A pair of Hockey East players, senior forward Bobby Butler of New Hampshire and sophomore forward Gustav Nyquist, were the other two finalists.

Boston University defenseman Matt Gilroy took home the award last season.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
