03/15/2010 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - George Mason and Harvard are part of the 16-team field selected to play in the second annual College Insider.com postseason tournament.
The Patriots, who reached the NCAA Final Four in 2006, will host Fairfield in the first round of the event on Tuesday. The two other games that night have Great West Conference tourney winner South Dakota visiting Creighton, and Western Carolina playing at Marshall.
Harvard, which is making its first postseason appearance since 1946, will play on the road against Appalachian State on Wednesday. The other games that night will have Middle Tennessee State at Missouri State, Pacific at Loyola Marymount and Portland playing at Northern Colorado.
Loyola Marymount is in a postseason tourney for the first time since making a magical Elite Eight run in the NCAA Tournament in 1990, the year Hank Gathers passed away.
"We are very honored to be participating in the 2010 CollegeInsider.com postseason tournament," said LMU coach Max Good. "Every coach will tell you that the goal of every team is to make the NCAA Tournament, but to be able to continue our season by competing in a tournament of this quality is an accomplishment that is very important to the growth of this program."
The lone first-round game Thursday has Southern Mississippi visiting Louisiana Tech.
Old Dominion captured the inaugural CollegeInsider.com tournament with a 66-62 championship game win over Bradley last year.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
