Chad Collins leads in Puerto Rico

Golf Betting Lines

03/13/2010 - Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chad Collins found himself alone in the lead during the suspended second round of the Puerto Rico Open.

Collins is six-under par through 11 holes of his second round and is in first place at nine-under par at Trump International Golf Club.

The second round was suspended due to darkness as this tournament tries to catch up from two days of disastrous weather.

Half of the field has yet to tee off in round two, so he second round will continue on Sunday, then the 36-hole cut will be made and the third round will commence. The plan is for the completion of the third round on Monday, then the final round in order to get in 72 holes.

The problem with that scenario is that there is more bad weather forecast for Monday and one has to wonder how much more Trump International Golf Club can take.

A total of 6.6 inches of rain fell on the course on Thursday. Six-tenths of an inch of rain hit Trump International on Friday and in the last week, there has been over a foot of rain.

Paul Stankowski shot a two-under 70 in the second round and is in the clubhouse at eight-under 136. Jeff Overton is two-under through 14 holes and Jhonattan Vegas is five-under after 13, but both are also at eight-under for the tournament.

Collins, who finished second on the Nationwide Tour money list last year, began on the 10th tee Saturday and flew out of the gate with birdies at 10 and 12.

He birdied three of his last four holes on his opening nine to reach eight- under par for the championship.

A bogey at the first hole dropped him out of the lead, but an eagle at the par-five second gave him first all to himself.

Nicholas Thompson and James Nitties are both three-under on their second rounds and seven-under for the tournament. They are joined in a tie for fifth with Skip Kendall and Kris Blanks, who shared the first-round lead at 65, but won't play round two until Sunday.

"Probably one of the longest rounds I've ever played," joked Kendall, considering his first round took three days to complete.

Guy Boros (67) and former PGA Champion Steve Elkington (70) are knotted in ninth at place at six-under 138. Woody Austin, Kent Jones and Peter Gustafsson are six-under on the course.

NOTES: Dicky Pride, David Peoples, Brett Quigley and Craig Bowden all withdrew...The first and second rounds are being played with preferred lies in closely mown areas...Only six players completed round two before the horn sounded.

Big East Conference odds

Work left to do: Villanova, Syracuse, DePaul, West Virginia, Providence

Notre Dame and Louisville appear to have done enough to make the move, so we'll make them locks. The Cardinals, despite a modest RPI, are trending way up and have clinched at least a tie for third in the Big East, which should be more than enough with their pair of big road wins. Villanova got back to .500 and gets back to more solid footing. Syracuse got a very important road win and crippled a fellow contender in the process. West Virginia's fate could be in its hands Tuesday at Pitt.

Work left to do:

Villanova [18-9 (7-7), RPI: 21, SOS: 5] Pounded Rutgers to get back to .500. If Cats can get their last two (at UConn, vs. Syracuse), that should be enough with strong computer numbers and a host of wins away from The Pavilion. The Cats have beaten Texas and swept the Big 5 (never easy in Philly), but have a couple of losses to bubble teams (Xavier, Drexel), too. I still think they'll be OK, possibly even at 8-8.

Syracuse [20-8 (9-5), RPI: 53, SOS: 62] History says 10 wins will be plenty, but it might be hard for the Orange to get that last one with a final two vs. G'town, which is trying to win the league title, and at Villanova, which will be desperate for a W. The relative lack of nonconference heft and the weak computer numbers are still concerns, but the Orange have won four in a row and got a very, very big win at Providence on Saturday.

DePaul [16-12 (8-7), RPI: 54, SOS: 18] Beat Cincy and should get past South Florida to get to 9-7, but then what? They have beaten Kansas and Cal (right after the DeVon Hardin injury) earlier this season, but also have lost to Bradley and Purdue, among others. They'll likely need a couple of BE tourney wins, too, but we'll see ...

West Virginia [19-7 (8-6), RPI: 58, SOS: 125] The game at Pitt on Tuesday night could decide the Mountaineers' fate (barring a deep tournament run). They can still get to 9-7 in the Big East without it by beating Cincinnati, but the nine wins would be against UConn, Villanova, St. John's, South Florida, DePaul, Rutgers, Seton Hall twice and the Bearcats. Beating bubble foes is fine, but where's the beef? Outside of beating PG-less UCLA in nonconference play (still a top quality win), there's not a lot to fall back on (besides maybe NC State). WVU vs. Syracuse would be an interesting debate, as the teams don't play in the Big East regular season. WVU has the best win, but Cuse has played the much better schedule.

Providence [17-10 (7-7), RPI: 70, SOS: 33] The Friars likely saw their at-large hopes die at home in the four-point loss to Syracuse, barring an unexpected run to the Big East semis or more. The RPI, bad already, won't be helped by playing St. John's and South Florida in the final two league games.
