Callahan in as William & Mary quarterback
NCAA Football Betting Lines
08/30/2010 - Williamsburg, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - William & Mary football coach Jimmye Laycock has named fifth-year senior Mike Callahan as the fourth-ranked Tribe's starting quarterback for Saturday's season opener at Massachusetts.
Callahan earned the starting job over redshirt freshman Brent Caprio and highly regarded North Carolina transfer Mike Paulus.
The 5-foot-11, 185-pound Callahan has yet to play for William & Mary, missing last season because of injury.
"Mike Callahan, fifth-year senior, has been in our program for a long time, he really understands our offense and understands our thinking and reasons for doing things," Laycock said. "He's done a good job in preseason as far as learning our offense and making good decisions, so Mike will get the start."
Laycock did not name a backup quarterback, adding that, if one is needed, Caprio or Paulus would enter the game depending on the situation.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship
(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.
One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.
Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
