Isner will open for U.S. against host Serbs

Tennis Betting Lines

03/04/2010 - Belgrade, Serbia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Big American John Isner will make his Davis Cup debut on Friday when he meets Viktor Troicki in Friday's opening singles rubber for the 2010 Davis Cup first-round battle between the United States and Serbia.

The best-of-five tie will be staged on red clay at Belgrade Arena.

Isner-Troicki will be followed by a bout between world No. 2 Serbian star Novak Djokovic and Sam Querrey on Day 1.

Saturday's doubles encounter will pit an American duo of the twin Bryan brothers, Bob and Mike, against a Serbian tandem of Janko Tipsarevic and Nenad Zimonjic, while Sunday's reverse singles currently call for Djokovic to battle the 6-foot-9 Isner and Troicki to take on the 6-foot-6 Querrey.

Team USA is captained by Patrick McEnroe, while the Serbs are guided by Bogdan Obradovic. McEnroe led the U.S. to a record 32nd Davis Cup title in 2007, which ended an American title drought of 12 years.

The Americans are playing without their top gun, Wimbledon runner-up Andy Roddick, who decided against playing in the prestigious international team event this year.

The U.S. and Serbia will meet for the first-ever time in Davis Cup play. The winner here will face Croatia or Ecuador in the quarterfinals in July.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
