Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Saskatchewan quarterback Darian Durant and wide
receiver Andy Fantuz, Winnipeg linebacker Joe Lobendahn and Hamilton kick
returner Marcus Thigpen have been selected as the CFL's top performers for the
first week of the regular season.

passes for 478 yards with five touchdowns in a 54-51 double overtime victory
over Montreal. He also rushed for 52 yards and a TD on just five carries.
Fantuz was named the top Canadian player after catching eight passes from
Durant for 77 yards, including a touchdown in the final minute of regulation.
Lobendahn took the defensive player of the week accolades after finishing with
eight tackles and two sacks in a 49-29 decision over Hamilton despite
Thigpen's performance.
Thigpen earned the special teams honors for becoming the first player with two
return touchdowns in a game since Keith Stokes did so in 2002 with Montreal.
He finished with 340 return yards, returning the opening kickoff 93 yards for
a score and then a missed field goal 118 yards to paydirt in the fourth.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
