Todd Dewey covers sports betting for the Review-Journal. Prior to taking over that beat in January 2017, he covered UNLV football, 51s baseball and a wide range of other events that come to Las Vegas. A native of Cambridge, Mass., and a graduate of the University of Central Florida, Dewey joined the Review-Journal in 1999 and was the 2013 Nevada Sportswriter of the Year.
The No. 22 Wolf Pack are 5½-point favorites over the Rebels at most Las Vegas sports books after the line opened at 5.
The first two days of the NCAA Tournament are arguably the best two days on the sports calendar. And for the first time, the Westgate sports book is offering a contest that covers only the opening two days March 15 and 16.
It won’t take a miracle for the U.S. men’s hockey team to win the gold medal this year — when the NHL won’t participate in the Winter Olympics — but the odds are against the Americans (10-1).
