USC's Hazelton set to transfer

Cfootball Betting Lines

12/03/2008 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Southern California wide receiver Vidal Hazelton says he intends on transferring at the conclusion of this season.

A junior from New York, Hazelton entered this season as USC's number-one returning receiver. He has dealt with injuries and a lack of playing time due to the emergence of wide receivers Ronald Johnson, Patrick Turner and Damian Williams.

Hazelton has caught only six passes for 38 yards without a touchdown in eight games. He had 50 receptions for 540 yards and four scores as a sophomore.

Highly recruited coming out of Hargrave Military Academy in Chatham, Virginia, Hazelton had interest in attending Penn State and Tennessee, but has not made it evident to where he will transfer.

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.
