Francesco leads Edoardo in battle of Molinaris

Golf Betting Lines

08/28/2010 - Perthshire, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Francesco Molinari shot a four-under 68 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead over his older brother Edoardo after the third round of the Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles.

Francesco Molinari finished 54 holes at 10-under 206 to lead big brother by a shot.

This is the final week for Ryder Cup qualifying and Francesco has already clinched a spot on Colin Montgomerie's team. Edoardo Molinari can't make the team on points, but would have to be a candidate for a captain's pick.

A win from Edoardo Molinari on Sunday would have to put him at the top of Monty's list. The problem is, to get that victory, the man who will have to stop him is his kid brother.

The elder Molinari, who won this year's Scottish Open, shot a three-under 69 on Saturday.

Second-round co-leader Julien Guerrier (73), Oliver Wilson (68), Gregory Bourdy (70), Stephen Gallacher (71) and Simon Dyson (70) are knotted in third place at minus-eight.

Dyson is very much in the mix for a European Ryder Cup spot. Peter Hanson and Miguel Angel Jimenez hold down the last two spots in points, but a Dyson victory would get him on the team.

Jimenez is part of a large tie for eighth, one stroke behind Dyson at seven- under 209. Hanson struggled to a three-over 75 on Saturday and fell into a tie for 32nd place at minus-three.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl

NFL Super Bowl Betting

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.

Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.

The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
