Augusta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - After struggling to a one-over 73 on Thursday,
Phil Mickelson bounced back with a four-under 68 Friday to move into share of
11th at three-under-par 141 after two rounds of the Masters.
Mickelson was well off the pace after opening with that 73. His comeback
started with a birdie on the second. He gave that shot back with a bogey on
the par-three sixth.
He stumbled to another bogey on the par-four 11th to dip to plus-two and was
in danger of missing the cut. However, Mickelson flew up the leaderboard from
there.
After making birdie on 12 to get back to the cut line, Mickelson nearly holed
his approach at the par-five 13th. He kicked in a short eagle putt to jump to
minus-one.
"When that one went in, that gave me a little bit of momentum," said Mickelson
of his birdie putt on 12. "I hit a great drive on 13 and knocked down that
pin."
Mickelson knocked his second over the green at the par-five 15th. He hit a
stellar flop shot within a few feet of the hole. The two-time Masters champion
tapped in for birdie.
At the closing hole, Mickelson drained a birdie effort from just inside 20
feet to finish at minus-three, six back of the leaders.
"I feel like I put myself within six shots of the lead, a spot where a good
round tomorrow can get me into contention on Sunday," Mickelson said.
Mickelson, who has two wins this season, improved his driving on Friday
hitting 10 fairways after only hitting six on Thursday.

NFL Football Sports Betting
Two playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.
New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.
His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.
HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.
The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.
RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.
First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.
The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.
These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.
New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
