Golf Betting Lines

11/20/2008 - Coral Springs, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Morse struggled to a two-over 74 Thursday as his lead dropped to one stroke after three rounds of the Champions Tour National Qualifying Tournament.

Morse, who led by three shots after two rounds, finished 54 holes at six- under-par 210.

Robert Thompson carded a three-under 69 to move into second at minus-five.

Tom McKnight fired the low round of the week so far with his seven-under 65. That jumped him into a share of third place at four-under-par 212. He was joined there by Jay Don Blake (70).

Through three rounds, Blake is the only player to break par each round.

Morse, who has led since the second nine of the opening round, parred his first five holes. He moved to minus-nine with a birdie on the par-four sixth.

Around the turn at the TPC at Eagle Trace, Morse tripped to a bogey on the 11th. He fell to minus-six with a double-bogey at the 14th.

Morse slipped to another bogey at the 16th, but came right back with a birdie on 17 to remain atop the leaderboard after three rounds.

Thompson faltered to a bogey on the third, but rebounded with three birdies in a four-hole span from the fifth to move to minus-four. He tripped to a bogey at 13, but birdies at 15 and 17 got Thompson within one of the lead.

Ronnie Black (67), David Ogrin (70), James Mason (68) and Tim Conley (68) share fifth place at three-under-par 213. Mike San Filippo posted a 68 Thursday to move into ninth at minus-two.

Steve Thomas carded a five-under 67 to climb into 10th at one-under-par 215. Mark W. Johnson entered the day alone in second, but faltered to a five-over 77 that dropped him into 11th place at even-par.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
