NCAA Football Betting Lines

09/01/2010 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Big South Conference announced on Wednesday a four-year extension of a football agreement with associate football member Stony Brook.

"Stony Brook has been an outstanding football member for the Big South Conference," said conference commissioner Kyle Kallander. "They have strong leadership, are a class act, and obviously are very competitive. We are thrilled to extend our relationship with the Seawolves."

Stony Brook, though based in Long Island, has been a factor in the conference the last two seasons, compiling an 8-3 record while finishing as runner-up in 2008 and as co-champion in 2009. Head coach Chuck Priore was named Big South coach of the year last season.

"Stony Brook is excited and honored to continue our relationship with the Big South Conference," said director of athletics Jim Fiore. "We have a tremendous amount of respect for the administrators, coaches and student-athletes who represent the conference."

Cornerstone members of the football conference include Coastal Carolina, Liberty, Virginia Military Institute and Charleston Southern.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
