Report: Bush to be stripped of Heisman
NCAA Football Betting Lines
09/07/2010 -
Sunnyvale, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Southern California star Reggie Bush
will reportedly be stripped of the Heisman Trophy he won in 2005.
According to Yahoo! Sports, the Heisman Trophy Trust is close to completing
its investigation in the wake of the NCAA's findings that Bush was ineligible
during the 2005 season.
The report states that the decision could be announced by the end of
September. It also says the Heisman Trust will not award a second trophy and
will instead leave the honor for 2005 vacant.
In June, the NCAA said Bush and his family received impermissible benefits,
including plane tickets, hotel rooms, limousine service, housing, appliances,
furniture, several thousand dollars and a car. Bush was retroactively ruled
ineligible and the Trojans were slapped with numerous penalties, including a
two-year bowl ban, a reduction of scholarships and a forfeiture of wins.
A month later, USC said it would remove all jerseys and murals displayed in
recognition of Bush, and would return its replica of his Heisman Trophy back
to the Heisman Trophy Trust.
Bush became the seventh Trojan to capture the illustrious award in 2005,
easily outdistancing Texas quarterback Vince Young and USC teammate Matt
Leinart for the honor.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value
If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).
For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.
TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.
"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,' it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."
"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.
Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
