FSU eliminates Gators from CWS; Clemson handles Arizona State

Cbaseball Betting Lines

06/21/2010 - Omaha, NE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mike McGee hit a three-run homer, knocked in four and earned the save, as Florida State eliminated Florida from the College World Series with an 8-5 victory at Rosenblatt Stadium.

Tyler Holt chipped in with three hits, two RBI and scored three times for Florida State, which won four of five meetings with the Gators this season. Brian Busch picked up the win after allowing two runs on as many hits with four walks and three strikeouts in a 5 1/3-inning start. FSU will face the loser of Monday's TCU/UCLA game on Wednesday.

Hudson Randall suffered the loss for yielding four runs and four hits with a pair of walks in 2 2/3 innings for Florida, which finished the season 47-17.

Trailing 8-2 in the ninth, the Gators made things interesting. Daniel Bennett retired the first hitter before allowing the next three to reach -- on two singles and an error -- to load the bases. Preston Tucker then laced a three- run double down the right-field line to make it 8-5. McGee came on and gave up a single to Austin Maddox, then hit Matt den Dekker with a pitch. However, Mike Zunino lined into a 6-4 double play to end the game.

Florida opened the scoring in the first on Maddox's run-scoring single, but the Seminoles got the run back in the home half on a solo homer by Holt.

McGee's three-run shot in the third put Florida State ahead 4-1. Holt and Sherman Johnson each drew a one-out walk before McGee hammered a 1-2 pitch over the left field wall.

With runners on first and third and one out in the fourth, McGee chased in another run with a sacrifice bunt to give the Seminoles a four-run cushion. Jonathan Pigott answered in the fifth with a solo shot to right to make it a 5-2 game.

Geoff Parker worked out of trouble in the top of the seventh and Florida State tacked on two more in home portion. Stephen Cardullo led off with a homer and later in the inning, Holt plated Jayce Boyd with a base hit to increase the Seminoles' advantage to five.

The Gators had runners on the corners with two outs in the eighth, but Bennett came in from the bullpen for Parker and picked off Tyler Thompson to end the inning.

Boyd's RBI single in the bottom of the eighth gave FSU an 8-2 lead.

In earlier action on Monday, Casey Harman worked six-plus solid innings and five players drove in a run as Clemson knocked off Arizona State, 6-3, in the teams' first game.

Clemson tallied twice in the second inning and took charge in the fifth inning, scoring three times.

John Hinson's RBI single with one out scored Jeff Schaus and chased Arizona State starter Seth Blair. Brady Rogers took over and gave up a fly ball to left by Richie Shaffer that was lost in the sun and landed for a base hit, scoring Kyle Parker to increase the Clemson advantage to 4-1. Wilson Boyd followed with a single to center that brought home Hinson to push the lead to four.

The teams traded runs in the sixth inning, and ASU got a run-scoring groundout in the seventh to cut its deficit to three. However, Alex Frederick blanked the Sun Devils over the next two frames to wrap up the victory and set up a Tuesday meeting with Oklahoma, which beat South Carolina on Sunday.

Arizona State will face South Carolina in an elimination game Tuesday.

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.

As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.

Bet 2010 Super Bowl Odds

The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.

Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).

But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.

Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.

Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:

Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1

Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2

New York Giants - 9 - 2

Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).

Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.

So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.

And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.

They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.

Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.

But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.

Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.

Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.

Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.

Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?

Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.

In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.

Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.

Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.

The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.

The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.
