Soccer Betting Lines

01/17/2009 - Lyon, France (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The agent of in-demand Lyon striker Karim Benzema has denied rumors linking his client with an imminent move to Italian champions Inter Milan.

The 21-year-old France international has also been linked with Barcelona in recent times, despite having stated that he is more than happy to stay put until at least next summer.

Benzema's representative, Karim Djaziri, told The Times: "I haven't spoken to any club.

"There has been no contact from Inter, Barcelona or Manchester United. You would have to ask (Lyon president) Aulas about the offers he has received.

"Karim has always said that he wants to go to a prestigious club that will allow him to win trophies and as long as that is the case, he could choose England, Italy or Spain."

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
