Bridgeview, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Freedom failed to clinch the
final playoff spot in Women's Professional Soccer on Sunday as they suffered a
2-1 defeat to the Chicago Red Stars.
The Freedom entered Sunday's game needing a win over Chicago to book their
spot in the playoffs, but Veronica Boquete assisted on second-half goals for
Casey Nogueira and Megan Rapinoe before Washington pulled a goal back in the
final seconds through Beverly Goebel.
The result leaves Washington one point clear of Sky Blue FC with one game to
play, and the Freedom will conclude their season next Saturday against the
Atlanta Beat, while Sky Blue hosts the Boston Breakers.
It took 50 minutes for the opening goal to arrive as Boquete slotted a pass
through to Nogueira, who split two defenders and fired a shot off the inside
of the left post and into the net.
The Freedom's Sarah Huffman picked up a second yellow card in the 87th minute,
earning her an early exit, and Chicago took advantage as Boquete set up
Rapinoe's first goal of the season in the 90th minute.
Goebel answered one minute later for Washington, but the team didn't have
enough to time to find the equalizer and the Freedom will now need a win over
Atlanta to ensure themselves of the fourth and final playoff spot.
FC Gold Pride has already clinched the top spot in WPS, but they got goals
from Marta and Tiffeny Milbrett early in the second half of a 2-0 win over
Boston, while Atlanta and Sky Blue FC played to a 0-0 draw.
Boston will now enter the final weekend with a one-point lead on the
Philadelphia Independence in the race for second place.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
