France clinches upset of Spain at Davis Cup

Tennis Betting Lines

07/10/2010 - Clermont-Ferrand, France (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - France rode the doubles team of Julien Benneteau and Michael Llodra to victory Saturday as it clinched the win over reigning two-time champion Spain in the Davis Cup quarterfinals.

Benneteau and Llodra took a 6-1, 6-2, 6-7 (6-8), 7-6 (7-5) decision over the Spanish duo of Feliciano Lopez and Fernando Verdasco in the decisive doubles rubber.

France had grabbed a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five matchup Friday thanks to singles wins from Gael Monfils and Llodra.

The resounding victory is France's first over Spain since 1923, which was the first meeting between the two nations. Spain, which was without world No. 1 Rafael Nadal, had been 5-1 all-time versus France.

Early in Saturday's match it looked like Benneteau and Llodra would roll to victory, as they easily captured the first two sets. Lopez and Verdasco battled back and sent the following two sets into a tiebreak, but the Frenchmen ultimately prevailed in a little more than three hours.

France advances to September's semifinals and will meet the Argentina-Russia victor.

Sunday's reverse singles currently pit Monfils against Verdasco and Llodra versus David Ferrer.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.

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.
