NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/08/2010 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Matt Howard went 12-of-14 from the free throw line in a 20-point effort, and 18th-ranked Butler used a big second half to down Loyola-Chicago, 62-47, and clinch a share of the Horizon League title.

Willie Veasley added 12 points and eight rebounds for the Bulldogs (21-4, 14-0 Horizon), who clinched at least a share of their fourth straight league title with their 13th consecutive victory. Butler will go for the outright championship against Youngstown State on Thursday.

Geoff McCammon and Walt Gibler had nine points apiece to lead the Ramblers (13-11, 4-10), who have lost six of seven. Courtney Stanley and Terrance Hill each added eight points in defeat.

Back-to-back baskets by Ronald Nored and Howard at the end of the first half had Butler down by two, 26-24, at halftime, but the Bulldogs roared in front in the second half.

A pair of Howard free throws early on tied the game at 29 and began a 7-0 run that ended with Veasley's three-pointer for a 34-29 advantage with 16 minutes left.

The lead ballooned to 43-33 after Gordon Hayward made two consecutive layups with 11 1/2 minutes to go, and Loyola-Chicago never got closer than eight the rest of the way.

The margin remained at 10, 51-41, with just under six minutes remaining, but Butler went on a 10-2 run to put the game away. Howard had six of the points, including two free throws to end the spurt with an 18-point lead and only 2 1/2 minutes to play.

The Ramblers jumped out quickly to a 13-4 lead after an Andy Polka jumper just past the seven-minute mark, but an 8-0 burst by Butler, capped by Shawn Vanzant's two free throws, had the hosts within 19-18.

The visitors pushed their advantage to 23-18 before a late charge by the Bulldogs had the margin at two points at halftime.
