Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

Current odds to win the college football championship next fall.........

7-2-- Ohio State-- Biggest problem is they have too many quarterbacks.

13-2-- TCU-- Horned Frogs are primed for a big season.

7-1-- Alabama-- By then, Tide fans will forget who they hired as basketball coach.

15-1-- Baylor-- Art Briles is breaking in a new QB this year.

18-1-- Michigan State-- Mark Dantonio is America's most underrated coach.

20-1-- Clemson/LSU-- Both Death Valleys will be tough places to visit.



**********

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind........

13) One of highlights of trip was watching Golden State hold the Wizards to one basket in third quarter Monday night, as some know-it-all nitwit behind me cursed out the Wizards out because he bet on them. Then the jackass called his wife and told her he had to work late, as he went off to a strip club with his buddy. What a gem.

12) Over last eight years, underdogs are 23-9 vs spread in regional semifinals of the NCAA tournament. Having time to prepare helps the underdog.

11) New York Rangers are now 17-4-3 since goalie Henrik Lundqvist got hurt; they'll have an interesting decision to make when the playoffs roll around.

10) Miami 63, Richmond 61-- Hurricanes were down 18 at one point.

9) Cubs want to send 3B phenom Kris Bryant down to AAA for a few weeks so they keep him under club control for one extra year; problem is, the kid has nine HRs this spring and if the Cubs are really serious about contending this serason, they need to put their best club on the field from Day One- that team would appear to include Bryant.

8) After this season, college basketball players won't be able to transfer and become immediately eligible, if they've already graduated college- that rule was becoming a problem for mid-majors, with kids skipping out for better leagues.

7) Pitt's women's team got a technical foul before the game for not putting its lineup in on time for a tournament game in Tennessee. How many assistant coaches you think they have? Talk about incompetence.

6) Saw a guy score from second base without a throw on a wild pitch in the Angel-Ranger game Tuesday; we're entering dog days of spring training for position players; spring training is as long as it is to get the pitchers ready to go.

5) How does the coach of an undefeated team not win Coach of ther Year? Don't tell me Kentucky has great players; who do you think recruited them and yes, recruiting is a big part of coaching, maybe the biggest part.

4) Brett Favre is the only QB in NFL history to start all 16 games after he turned 39 years old. Peyton Manning turned 39 this week.

3) Dodgers signed Cuban 2B Olivera to a six-year, $62M contract, even though he is rumored to have a bad elbow that will prevent him from playing 3B.

2) I highly recommend Steak 'n Shake in the South Point casino; its tremendous!!!.

1) Golden State is having a great season, but their first round playoff opponent could easily be Oklahoma City; if Durant comes back for that series, how confident are you that the Warriors will advance to the second round?

Plenty of goals leads to a night of overs

Teams scored 50 goals in eight games last night, leading to the over going 5-1-2 in NHL action Tuesday night.

The good over night bucks the recent trend as the under had been hot going 16-26 over/under in the past seven days.


Islanders go under for sixth straight game

The New York Islanders went under the total for the sixth consecutive game in their 2-1 shootout loss to the Minnesota Wild Tuesday night.

During the streak the Isles have scored just 1.3 goals per game, while giving up just 2.2 goals per game in the process.

The Islanders, now 34-39-1 over/under in this season, try to make it seven in a row when they host the Los Angeles Kings Thursday.
