Alabama's Ingram likely to miss Penn State game

NCAA Football Betting Lines

09/08/2010 - Tuscaloosa, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alabama junior running back Mark Ingram will likely miss Saturday's game against Penn State as he continues to recover from knee surgery performed last week.

Ingram was hurt during practice on August 30 and underwent an arthroscopic procedure on his left knee the next day. He sat out the top-ranked Crimson Tide's opener against San Jose State and is more likely to make his season debut for Alabama's third game of the year at Duke on September 18.

"He's probably not going to play this week," said Alabama head coach Nick Saban on the SEC coaches' teleconference call Wednesday. "He hasn't had any swelling or any problems, so if he can continue to progress, I would say he's probably not going to be ready to play this week. He might be ready by the game, but he won't be able to practice enough to be ready. But I think after that, we have a chance to get him back if he continues to progress."

Despite the 2009 Heisman Trophy winner's absence, the Crimson Tide rolled to a 48-3 win over San Jose State. Sophomore Trent Richardson started in Ingram's place and ran for 66 yards with two touchdowns on 10 carries, while redshirt freshman Eddie Lacy finished with 111 yards and two scores on 13 attempts.

Ingram became Alabama's first Heisman Trophy winner last year as a sophomore and helped the Crimson Tide to the national title. He set the school rushing record with 1,658 yards in 2009, while also catching 32 passes for 334 yards and totalling 20 touchdowns.

A unanimous First-Team All-American, Ingram became the first running back to capture the Heisman Trophy and national championship in the same season since Tony Dorsett with Pittsburgh in 1976.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
