Although they are considered in a rebuilding year, Xavier
\nis the favorite to win the 2008 Atlantic 10
\nTournament<\/a>. The Musketeers are posted at even money at NewBodog<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s
\nnot a good year for the A-10,\u201d<\/st1:metricconverter>
\nsays Cy<\/span> McCormick of MasterLockLine.com<\/span><\/a>.
\nHe points to the fact that <\/span>Temple<\/span><\/st1:place><\/st1:City> was second in the conference at 11-5, but has only 18 wins
\noverall. <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

The sportsbooks<\/span><\/a> say the Massachusetts Minutemen are
\n5\/2 and the aforesaid Temple<\/st1:PlaceType> Owls<\/st1:PlaceName><\/st1:place>
\nare 3\/1. The erratic Saint Joseph<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>\u2019s
\nHawks and the Richmond Spiders are next at 5\/1. At one time, Temple<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>,
\nLaSalle and St. Joe\u2019s were at an advantage because the tournament was usually
\nat the historic Palestra<\/span> in Philadelphia<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>,
\nhome city of those three colleges. <\/p>\n

Though Atlantic City<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>
\nis still a regional advantage for the Philadelphia<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>
\nbased teams, it does not give the edge they once had when the game was played
\nat the University<\/st1:PlaceType> of Pennsylvania<\/st1:PlaceName><\/st1:place>
\nand Philadelphia Big 5 home. <\/p>\n

Charlotte<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> and La
\nSalle<\/st1:place> are next at 10\/1; the slow down Bilikens of Saint Louis and
\nthe Rhode Island Rams follow at 15\/1. <\/p>\n

The Duquesne Dukes at 20\/1 and the Fordham Rams at 35\/1
\nare given little chance. \u201cWith 11 of the 13 teams within six games of each
\nother in the conference standings, we look for some moneyline dogs to come
\nbarking,\u201d says forensic handicapping<\/span><\/a> founder Stevie Vincent of BetOnSports360.com<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
