UIC tabs Howard Moore as new head coach

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

08/20/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The University of Illinois at Chicago has named Howard Moore, a University of Wisconsin assistant coach, as the school's new head basketball coach.

The 37-year-old Moore, a native of Chicago, grew up a few blocks from the UIC campus. He served the last five seasons as an assistant coach for the Badgers, his alma mater, under Bo Ryan.

"I am very excited about the opportunity to coach at UIC, be back in my hometown, and continue the legacy and tradition of UIC basketball," Moore said. "I am deeply honored and humbled by the opportunity, and I vow to use every ounce of energy I have to get UIC back to the top of the Horizon League and competing for championships."

Moore replaces Jimmy Collins, who announced his retirement last month after 14 years at the school. He leaves as the all-time winningest coach in school history with a 218-208 record and guided the Flames to three NCAA Tournament appearances (1998, 2002, 2004) and one NIT bid (2003).

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.
