NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

05/03/2010 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Northeastern men's basketball coach Bill Coen has signed a multi-year contract extension.

Coen has guided the Huskies to a record of 66-62 during his four-year tenure, which includes postseason appearances in each of the last two seasons. Northeastern reached the quarterfinals of the CBI in 2009 and this spring earned a berth in the NIT.

"Coach Coen has been a terrific coach and educator to our student-athletes over the last four seasons," said Northeastern athletic director Peter Roby. "His efforts in guiding our student-athletes to success both on and off the court embody the type of program we want here at Northeastern. We are thrilled to be able to keep him in the Husky family for the long term future."

The Huskies are 39-26 over the past two seasons, including a mark of 20-13 in 2009-10. Northeastern nearly pulled off a first-round upset of Connecticut in the first round of the NIT, falling 59-57.

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.
