NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/13/2012 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Baylor is again a unanimous choice as the No. 1 team in the Associated Press women's college basketball poll.

The undefeated Lady Bears received all 40 first-place votes and a total of 1,000 points from a nationwide media panel, earning the undisputed top choice for an 11th consecutive week.

There were changes in the top five, as Connecticut slid up one spot to second and Stanford moved up one to third. Notre Dame dipped two places to fourth after a 65-63 loss to West Virginia on Sunday snapped the Irish's 21-game winning streak.

Duke, Miami-Florida, Kentucky, Maryland, Ohio State and Delaware round out this week's top 10. Delaware moved up two spots from 12th.

The second 10 starts with Green Bay, which suffered its first loss of the season last Thursday against Detroit, and is followed by Penn State, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Georgetown, Nebraska, Purdue, Georgia, Louisville and Georgia Tech. Penn State vaulted six spots from 18th.

Rutgers, Saint Bonaventure, BYU, DePaul and South Carolina are the last five teams ranked this week. BYU and DePaul are newcomers, replacing Gonzaga and North Carolina.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.

Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.

According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).

Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.

''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
    
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.

Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.

''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''

Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
   
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.

”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
   
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
