03/13/2010 - Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The semifinal round of the 2010 SEC Tournament pits the second-ranked Kentucky Wildcats against the 15th-ranked Tennessee Volunteers.
Up next for the winner of this game is a trip to tomorrow's championship showdown against either Vanderbilt or Mississippi State.
Tennessee, the East Division's third seed, knocked off LSU by 10 points in the first round on Thursday. In quarterfinal action yesterday, the Vols pulled away in the second half for a 76-65 victory over a solid Ole Miss squad. They have won the SEC Tournament four times, but it has been 31 years since their last title. Last season, Tennessee reached the title game only to fall to Mississippi State in a 64-61 final. This team is 25-7 overall and has won five straight games dating back to the regular season.
The Wildcats have won this event 25 times and own an incredible 111-22 record in SEC Tournament games. Still, they haven't cut down the nets since 2004 and haven't reached the title game since 2005. Kentucky is a sensational 30-2 overall under first-year head coach John Calipari, and the 'Cats are the top seed from the loaded East Division of the SEC. Yesterday, they survived a scare against Alabama (W-4), erasing an 11-point deficit en route to a 73-67 victory.
Tennessee is one of the only two teams that has beaten Kentucky this season. The programs split a pair of meetings during the regular season, and the Wildcats own a 143-66 advantage in the all-time series.
Wayne Chism was tremendous for Tennessee in yesterday's win over Ole Miss, as the standout forward had 16 points and 15 rebounds. J.P. Prince led the Vols with 17 points, and Cameron Tatum posted 15 points. Bobby Maze rounded out the double-digit scorers with 13 points, and his Tennessee squad scored 20 points off Ole Miss turnovers. A 26-12 advantage in points from the foul line was key for Tennessee. Through 32 games, the Vols are generating 74.5 ppg while holding foes to 64.7 ppg. Chism is now averaging 12.6 ppg and 7.2 rpg, and he has blocked more than twice as many shots as any other player on the roster. Scotty Hopson, who shot 2-of-11 yesterday and finished with six points, is also netting 12.5 ppg.
Star point guard John Wall of Kentucky recently became just the second freshman ever to receive SEC Player of the Year honors, and he proved worthy of the award with a stellar performance against Alabama yesterday. Wall scored 23 points, pulled down seven rebounds and dished out five assists to lead his team. Patrick Patterson checked in with 20 points, and Eric Bledsoe tallied 10 points. The Wildcats connected on 50 percent of their field goal attempts in the tilt and earned a 22-16 edge in points from the foul line. The positives helped the team overcome a 45-33 rebounding deficit and a 1-of-13 shooting effort from three-point range. Overall this season, Wall is scoring an even 17.0 ppg to go along with 6.2 rpg. DeMarcus Cousins, another sensational rookie for Kentucky, was quiet yesterday, but he is scoring 15.4 ppg while ripping down 10 boards per contest. Patterson provides 15.1 ppg, and Bledsoe adds 10.4 ppg. The Wildcats are posting 79.5 ppg this season while permitting 65.7 ppg to foes.

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
