Hampton lifts West Virginia over No. 2 Notre DameNCAA Basketball Betting Lines02/12/2012 - South Bend, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brooke Hampton came up huge for her team with a pair of clutch free throws with 4.6 seconds left in the game, lifting West Virginia to a 65-63 upset over second-ranked Notre Dame on Sunday. Trailing, 63-61, with less than two minutes to play, Asya Bussie nailed a jumper with less than a minute left in regulation to tie the game at 63. Following a Notre Dame timeout, Skylar Diggins muffed a layup try and Ayana Dunning came down with the rebound for West Virginia with 17 seconds left. Diggins fouled Hampton, sending her to the line, and she calmly stroked both shots to put the Mountaineers up 65-63 with five seconds to go. Natalie Novosel's last second jumper was off the mark, sealing the win for West Virginia. Bussie led the Mountaineers (18-6, 8-3 Big East) with 22 points and eight rebounds, while Dunning finished with 11 and seven rebounds. Christal Caldwell chipped in with 10 points for West Virginia, which has won four straight. Diggins netted a game-high 32 points for the Fighting Irish (24-2, 11-1) and Novosel finished with 16. Notre Dame had its 21-game winnings streak stopped. Notre Dame led 33-30 at the end of a tightly played first half. The Fighting Irish created some distance early in the second half with an 11-5 burst to jump out to a 44-35 advantage. A pair of free throws by Bussie pulled the Mountaineers within three, 53-50, with just over seven minutes to go, but Natalie Achonwa answered with a bucket to put Notre Dame back up five with six minutes left. Bussie sank a layup with 1:53 to go to make it 62-61, but Diggins made 1-of-2 free throws at the other end to make it 63-61.

American Idol odds : Blake Lewis the Early Standout An important American Idol betting lines recap from February 20 Guys episode. The 12 men came out flat overall with Blake Lewis appearing to have the early edge after the first hour and a half. Rudy - was quite good singing "Free Ride" to start off. Randy was not impressed though. Paula thought he started off fantastic. "Never had anyone stop off so lively" said Paula but Simon (who does not like Rudy) does not feel he has a distinct voice and was not impressed either. Brandon was a little pitchy according to Randy and Paula agreed. Simon said he was a good singer but the song was "too safe" and he needs to make an impact. He was listed at +1200 odds or $1200 paid out on a $100 bet should he win the competition. Big favorite Sundance came in with a flat version of "Knights in White Satin" and the judges let him have it, including Paula. Randy claimed the song was out of pitch throughout. Korean American - and a Jenny Woo favorite - Paul Kim was up next. Another pitchy flat one but Randy said he still liked his potential. Kim at +3000 odds was said to have sung a "third rate version of that (George Michael) song" according to Simon Cowell. He sang "Careless Whisper". 22 year old Chris Richardson was up next. He was listed with +1100 odds coming in. He got the best response from the judges though Simon did not believe the vocal was that great. Nick was boring and pitchy. Simon didn't think he was that bad though and predicted he would be back next week. Nick Pedro was a big +3000 dog coming into this competition. Beat boxer Blake Lewis was listed with early +1000 odds or $1000 payout on a $100 bet if he were to become the next American Idol winner odds . These of course were the early odds. He was considered original for picking an "odd song". He did not beat box and the judges felt it was the best vocal of the night. Sanjaya came in as the second biggest favorite after Chris Sligh but his performance Tuesday night was not very good. Chris Sleigh was the early favorite at +450 odds. Great voice and a great sense of humor. He's a real standout. Randy felt it was on point but maybe ahead of the chorus a little bit. Simon Cowell said he felt like he was in some "sort of weird student gig". Jared Cotter followed. He was listed with +2000 odds early on to win the competition. The judges felt he needs to take more risks but looked good. Phil - this season's military favorite - came into this competition with +1200 odds to win the competition. He was the last to perform. He was certainly strong enough to get through this stage of the competition and perhaps the best one after a shaky start. Tomorrow night, the ladies perform and I sure hope they do a better job than the boys. Check out all the American Idol betting odds here.
