Rookie forward Teal Bunbury scored his first MLS goal to not only end a 340 minute scoreless streak for the Wizards, but propel them to their first road victory of the season at the first-placed Crew. Bunbury's tally came in the 14th minute when he ran onto a through ball from Ryan Smith at the top of the Columbus penalty area and fired a shot through the legs of goalkeeper Will Hesmer. The counter-attacking goal was made possible by Roger Espinoza, who picked off a Frankie Hejduk pass before feeding Smith in the offensive third. K.C. goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen with a tough save minutes later after Adam Moffat ripped a shot from about 20 yards, but the Danish 'keeper tipped it over the crossbar. The Wizards Kei Kamara just missed putting his team up two goals just before the half-hour mark when he headed a corner kick on goal, but Eddie Gaven cleared it off the line. Nielsen, who made seven saves in the game to earn his sixth clean sheet of the season, made another tough save in the 70th minute, kicking away a Guillermo Barros Schelotto chance from about 10 yards to keep his team up 1-0. The Wizards had a pair of shots with about 10 minutes to go after a flurry in the Crew area, but Bunbury and Graham Zusi were unable to beat Hesmer. Nielsen made on last top-notch save in the 89th minute when he got in front of an Emmanuel Ekpo shot to help the Wizards knock off the Crew for the first time since September of 2007. Columbus (8-3-4) and Kansas City (4-8-3) have quick turnarounds, with the Crew hosting Red Bull New York and the Wizards traveling to Colorado on Saturday in their next MLS matches.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL BETTINGNCAA Football BettingMany fans thought it was the best side in the nation by the end of last season. This year, the polls have built on Georgia's momentum and granted it the No. 1 preseason ranking, followed by Ohio State and USC. (The Associated Press has the Buckeyes at No. 2; USA Today took the Trojans.) "To have people believing we have one of the best teams in the nation going into this thing, it's exciting for us," Bulldogs coach Mark Richt told the AP. "I don't think anything is guaranteed, but we certainly have put ourselves in position where at least the college football world thinks we're pretty good." Georgia Bulldogs - 9.5 wins There's no question they're good, but the Bulldogs have one of the toughest 12-game schedules in the nation, mostly because they play in the powerhouse Southeastern Conference. Away games at No. 15 Arizona State, No. 7 LSU and No. 10 Auburn loom large, with contests between the hedges versus No. 24 Alabama and No. 18 Tennessee as well as the World's Largest Cocktail Party in Jacksonville versus No.5 Florida. Ohio State Buckeyes - 10 wins Like the Bulldogs, the Buckeyes also have a number of tough road contests in 2008. After two scrimmages dressed up as real games versus Youngstown State and Ohio, it's off to face USC. Other tough away games include No.13 Wisconsin in October and No. 20 Illinois in November. Granted, it should be pretty easy sledding at the Horseshoe. In fact, the only ranked team that travels to Columbus is No. 22 Penn State, in October. USC Trojans - 10.5 wins A similarly light schedule awaits the Trojans of Southern California, which is why the oddsmakers' total is one win more and the over is currently commanding -150 odds. Pete Carroll's troops only play three ranked teams in 2008, and all of those games are at home. After what should be an easy trip to Virginia to start things off on Aug. 30, the Trojans get two weeks to prepare for Ohio State in Los Angeles. Their two other ranked opponents, No. 21 Oregon and No. 15 Arizona State, visit in consecutive weeks to start the month of October. After that, the competition eases up. Of course, this is the same highly-touted school that lost to Stanford in 2007 and Oregon State in 2006. And don't discount the fact that USC plays its biggest rivals, Notre Dame and UCLA, back-to-back to close out the regular season. On paper, the Trojans are far superior, but motivation will be high for the Irish and Bruins, especially if their historic foes are in national-title contention. Odds to Win the Heisman Trophy Tim Tebow, Florida - 7/2 "There has never been anyone quite like him," Meyer told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "I am very lucky to be his coach." Chris Wells, Ohio State - 5/1 The man they call "Beanie" was a star recruit out of high school, so it's not like nobody knew who the star tailback was before he rushed for 576 yards as a freshman in 2006 and 1,609 as a sophomore. But perhaps his finest moment came last year versus Michigan when he rumbled for 222 yards and two touchdowns in the Buckeyes' 14-3 victory over the hated Wolverines. Knowshon Moreno, Georgia - 8/1 If the Bulldogs are to live up to expectations, they'll need a huge effort from their sophomore running back. This might be the last year of college ball for Moreno, who rushed for 1,334 yards and for 14 touchdowns as a freshman, while adding 253 receiving yards on 20 receptions, so expect big things for the man from Belford, N.J. Note: Monday night game will be picked Monday. Lines used are from football betting lines .
