NCAA Football Betting Lines

Huntsville, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sam Houston State is still undefeated, and the next stop is Frisco, Texas. The top-seeded, and only undefeated team in the FCS entering the playoffs, Sam Houston State built a big lead and then held on to defeat Montana, 31-28, in the semifinals on Friday night.

 

On one of his biggest runs of the night, Flanders helped the Bearkats convert on a 4th-and-one from their own 48-yard line, picking up the first down and sliding to stay inbounds, allowing them to run out the clock.

 

After stopping Montana on the opening drive, Sam Houston State opened up the scoring on a 11-yard touchdown run at 10:36 by quarterback Brian Bell, who kept the ball on an option play and ran untouched into the end zone.

 

The miss ended McKnight's school-record streak of consecutive field goals, he had converted on the prior 16 attempts.

 

Missing the field goal proved to be detrimental for the Grizzlies, as Flanders responded with a 69-yard touchdown run on the very next play at 6:00 of the first quarter.

 

After stalling on its previous drive, Sam Houston State once again found the end zone, this time getting a 27-yard touchdown pass from Bell with 2:15 left in the half.

 

Linebacker Caleb McSurdy gave Montana a lift just before halftime, intercepting a pass and returning it 59-yards for a touchdown with a minute remaining. Sam Houston State entered the halftime break ahead, 28-14.

 

Following the field goal, Montana cut Sam Houston State's lead to 31-21 on a three-yard touchdown run by Jordan Canada at 3:36 of the third quarter.

 

Montana's defense picked up a key stop to start the fourth quarter, holding Sam Houston State on a third-and-six situation, before Johnson scored on a 54- yard touchdown run with 11:26 remaining.

 

Johnson was the offensive catalyst for Montana, completing 21-of-33 passes for 277 yards. He also rushed 11 times for 64 yards.

 

Other road games include trips to CAA Football opponents Old Dominion (Sept. 22), Georgia State (Oct. 6), Maine (Oct. 20) and Rhode Island (Oct. 27).

Super Bowl XLIV Odds

Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.

Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.

Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds

With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.

That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.

Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.

After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.

The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
