11/20/2008 - Dallas, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Felix Jones has a torn ligament in the big toe on his left foot, an injury which will require surgery that will sideline him for the remainder of the season.
The Cowboys announced on Thursday that Jones, who had been explosive out of the backfield and in the return game early in the season, developed the injury while rehabbing his injured left hamstring. The Arkansas product has been out since Dallas' 24-20 loss to Arizona in Week 6 with the hamstring injury.
Jones made an immediate impact on the Cowboys offense this season, rushing 30 times for 266 yards -- an average of 8.9 yards per carry -- with three touchdowns. Jones averaged 27.1 yards per kick return, and took one back 98 yards for a touchdown in Dallas' 41-37 win over the Eagles in Week 2.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
