10/21/2009 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, Atlanta Falcons safety Thomas DeCoud and Tampa Bay kick returner Sammie Stroughter have been named the NFC's top players for Week 6 of the NFL season.
Brees completed 23-of-30 passes for 369 yards and four touchdowns on Sunday, guiding the Saints to a 48-27 win over the then-unbeaten New York Giants. New Orleans moved to 5-0 with the victory.
The performance provided for a near-perfect passer rating of 156.8 as Brees picked up the offensive player of the week honor, his ninth weekly award as a Saint.
DeCoud garnered the defensive player of the week award after recording two interceptions, the first of his two-year career, in Sunday's win over Chicago. It was the first multi-interception game by a Falcon since DeAngelo Hall accomplished the feat September 17, 2006. It is the first weekly honor of DeCoud's career.
Stroughter was named the special teams player of the week for his performance in Sunday's loss to Carolina. He recorded a 97-yard kick return for a touchdown, while averaging 47.3 yards on three returns and adding three catches for 65 yards. It is the first weekly honor of the rookie's career.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
