Tennis Betting Lines

02/11/2012 - Fribourg, Switzerland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The United States Davis Cup team clinched a stunning first-round win against Switzerland on Saturday when the doubles tandem of Mike Bryan and Mardy Fish notched a four-set victory over the Swiss duo of Roger Federer and Stanislas Wawrinka.

Bryan and Fish claimed a 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, 6-3 win to give the Americans an insurmountable 3-0 lead in the best-of-five tie. The U.S. will advance to the quarterfinals in April against the winner between France and Canada.

Switzerland entered this weekend's tie with Federer anchoring its squad at home on clay. However, the 16-time Grand Slam champion was on the losing end twice in less than 24 hours.

Fish gave the Americans the first point on Friday, gutting out a 6-2, 4-6, 4-6, 6-1, 9-7 win over Wawrinka, before John Isner did the unthinkable with one of the greatest upsets in Davis Cup history. The man best known for playing the longest Grand Slam match two years ago at Wimbledon pulled off a 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (7-4), 6-2 victory over Federer in the second singles match on Friday to give the U.S. a 2-0 edge heading into Saturday's doubles action.

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.
