Stricker six clear after three rounds at RivieraGolf Betting Lines02/07/2010 - Pacific Palisades, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Steve Stricker polished off a five- under 66 Sunday and stretched his lead to six strokes after three rounds of the Northern Trust Open. Stricker, who led by five entering the day, carded a pair of birdies and a bogey to wrap up his third round. Twelve players completed their third rounds Sunday morning after play was suspended on Saturday by darkness. The tournament had weather problems on Friday that delayed the end of the second round until Saturday. The forecast for the remainder of Sunday is good so action is expected to be completed as scheduled around 6:00 p.m. (et). Luke Donald, who also shot 66 in round three, and J.B. Holmes (67) had completed their third rounds on Saturday. They share second place at nine- under-par 204 with Andres Romero, who polished off his 70 on Sunday morning at Riviera Country Club. Stricker returned to the course Sunday morning and had a 37-foot birdie putt on the par-four 15th. He poured that putt in and made it two in a row as he also birdied the par-three 16th. After making par on the par-five 17th, Stricker missed a 14-foot par putt at the last as his lead dipped from seven to six entering the final round. This is the ninth time Stricker has owned a piece of the lead entering the final round. Stricker won just three of those previous eight events. Kevin Stadler (69), George McNeill (66) and Dustin Johnson (74) share fifth place at eight-under-par 205. Steve Marino (69), Ricky Barnes (69), Anthony Kim (69) and Alex Prugh (66) are one stroke back at minus-seven. NOTES: There was a second cut that reduced the final-round field to 72 players...Nine players -- Bob Estes, Nick O'Hern, Fredrik Jacobson, David Duval, Rory Sabbatini, Ryan Moore, Bill Lunde, Cameron Beckman and Richard S. Johnson -- made the cut, but will not play the final round.

Big 12 Conference betting odds Work left to do: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Kansas State Work left to do: Texas Tech [18-11 (7-7), RPI: 44, SOS: 12] A critical two-point win over OK State leaves the Red Raiders with Baylor and at Iowa State left. Get both and the Red Raiders likely are good to go. Get one and there could be some interesting comparisons with a K-State team that could finish two or three games "ahead" of them in the standings but doesn't have any of the quality wins Texas Tech has. Not a lot in nonconference play (against Arkansas in Little Rock being the best win, by far) to lean on. Oklahoma State [18-9 (5-8), RPI: 50, SOS: 35] Still without a road win, the Cowboys now need to win two on the road just to get to .500 in conference play. It's hard to recall a team (OK, other than Clemson) falling so precipitously from lock status to almost certainly out of the NCAAs at this point. There are wins to be had in the last three, including a very big home game against K-State on Tuesday, but this team is reeling. Can you tell the pressure to win is getting to them with the way the final possession played out at Texas Tech? There are some good nonconference performances to lean on, specifically beating Missouri State and Syracuse on neutral floors and Pitt in OK City, but if the Pokes don't right this very, very soon, that won't be enough. Kansas State [20-9 (9-5), RPI: 56, SOS: 96] It pays to be in the Big 12 North. The nine league wins are Colorado (twice), Missouri (twice), Iowa State (twice), Baylor, Nebraska and (a good one against) Texas. That helps explain the middling computer profile. The win over USC is nice, but the nonconference leaves a lot to be desired. The game at OK State in Stillwater on Tuesday is huge, as it could KO the Cowboys and leave K-State with a home date against Oklahoma with which to work.
