Trojans' Dedmon out with torn ACL

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

01/27/2012 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Southern California head coach Kevin O'Neill announced on Friday that forward Dewayne Dedmon was diagnosed with a torn medial collateral ligament in his left knee as is likely out for the remainder of the season.

"I feel for Dewayne and our team," said O'Neill. "Obviously it is another huge blow for us as we move forward."

Dedmon suffered the injury in Thursday's game when a Colorado player drew a charge and fell back on Dedmon's knee, causing a hyperextension of the leg.

The seven-foot sophomore is the fifth USC player to suffer a season-ending injury, joining Jio Fontan (knee), Aaron Fuller (labrum), Evan Smith (labrum) and Curtis Washington (labrum).

In 20 games this season, Dedmon averaged 7.6 points and 5.5 rebounds.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
