Lafayette-Lehigh to play 150 in NYC?

NCAA Football Betting Lines

02/09/2012 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - As if the 150th meeting between the Lafayette and Lehigh football teams wasn't special enough ...

How about an extra special venue?

The Express-Times of Easton, Pa., reported Thursday about the concept of college football's most-played game celebrating its 150th meeting in 2014 at Yankee Stadium in New York.

Lafayette athletic director Bruce McCutcheon told the Express-Times he had spoken with Lehigh athletic director Joe Sterrett about doing "something special" for the 150th meeting. McCutcheon did not say whether the idea of playing the game at "The House That Ruth Built" was under serious consideration.

Through 147 meetings, Lafayette holds a 76-66-5 series lead.

The rivalry annually sells out at Lafayette (13,132) and Lehigh (16,000), but how much of a bigger draw it would be at Yankee Stadium is unknown.

Four college football games, including two Pinstripe Bowls, have been played at the new Yankee Stadium since it opened for the 2009 baseball season.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy.

Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

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.
