NCAA Football Betting Lines

Macomb, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Arkansas State assistant coach Kevin Corless begins his new duties as Western Illinois' defensive coordinator on Monday. Corless worked the last nine seasons at Arkansas State, the first seven as co- defensive coordinator and the final two as the sole coordinator who also was in charge of the linebackers and punt return units.

 

Prior to Arkansas State, Corless was an assistant coach at Northwestern State from 1995-2001 and at Montana Tech from 1986-95. He also worked from 1984-86 as a graduate assistant coach at Northwest Missouri State, his alma mater.

 

The National squad has five FCS players, Southern wide receiver LaQuinton Evans, Delaware State offensive tackle Keith Newell, Georgia Southern cornerback/kickoff returner Laron Scott, Liberty tight end Tommy Shavers and Hampton cornerback Peyton Thompson.

 

Northwestern State defensive back Jeremy Lane and Stephen F. Austin offensive lineman Georgia Bias also may play in the game.

 

"I'm very pleased to have Brian come on board," said Maryland head coach Randy Edsall in a statement. "He is a proven defensive coordinator at both the collegiate and professional level. All of his experience will help us move forward as we look for him to implement his aggressive style. He will also be a great addition to our recruiting efforts."

 

Houston ranked in the top 15 in the nation in five defensive categories during the 2011 season, in which the Cougars finished 13-1.

 

Stewart also had nine years of collegiate coaching experience before his venture to the NFL, including stops at Cal Poly, Northern Arizona, Missouri, San Jose State and Syracuse.

 

Jackson was the first player in the history of the Great West Conference to be honored four times on the first-team defense, As a senior, he had 54 tackles (31 solo) with two interceptions, which he returned for touchdowns (52 and 100 yards), and seven pass breakups.

 

Cal Poly ended its 6-5 season with a 41-10 win over South Alabama at Ladd- Peebles Stadium. Jackson had seven tackles and one pass breakup.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
