Football Betting Lines
09/04/2010 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Quarterback Rhett Bomar was among the players released by the New York Giants on Saturday, as the team reduced its roster to the 53-player maximum.
Bomar, a fifth-round 2009 draft choice out of Sam Houston State who saw more extensive action in the preseason than any other Giants quarterback, was deemed expendable after the team dealt for veteran backup Sage Rosenfels on Friday.
Also released were defensive tackle Jay Alford, offensive lineman Jacob Bender, running back Andre Brown, defensive back Courtney Brown (waived/injured), wide receiver Tim Brown, safety John Busing, tight end Scott Chandler, defensive lineman Nate Collins, offensive lineman Jim Cordle, wide receiver Derek Hagan, defensive lineman Alex Hall (waived/injured), defensive lineman Dwayne Hendricks, defensive lineman Tommie Hill, running back Gartrell Johnson, fullback Jerome Johnson, offensive lineman Todd Londolt, defensive back Matt O'Hanlon, tight end Bear Pascoe, quarterback Dominic Randolph, defensive back Sha'eff Rashad, offensive lineman Herb Taylor, offensive lineman Guy Whimper and defensive back Seth Williams.
Notables among that group include Alford, who appeared in every game with the Giants in 2007-08; Gartrell Johnson, who appeared in 10 contests with New York last season; and Whimper, who appeared in 30 games with the team from 2006 through 2009.
On Friday night, the Giants obtained Rosenfels and running back Darius Reynaud in a trade with the Minnesota Vikings.
The Giants will open their season next Sunday, when they play host to the Carolina Panthers in the first meaningful NFL game at New Meadowlands Stadium.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
