**********

Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports Saturday……..

13) TCU 44, Oklahoma State 31— Horned Frogs score a TD with 2:37 left to go up 43-31; they kick the PAT— why?!?!?!? At that point, 44-31 is the same as 43-31, but 45-31 is a lot better.

Up 44-31 with 2:37 left, Oklahoma State could’ve still scored two TD’s to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, and then would some faces be red. It didn’t happen, but as a coach, you have to guard against all kinds of unlikely events.

12) Florida 28, Kentucky 27— Talk about a gut punch; Kentucky led this game 27-14 with 8:30 to play, but let it slip away in last minute— they’ve now lost 31 games in a row to Florida. Wildcats cover the spread here, just 2nd time they’ve done it in last 11 series games, but this game will sting a lot longer than most losses do.

Wildcats ran the ball into field goal range with 0:05 left to play, but a holding call against them nullified the run and pushed them out of field goal range. Kentucky gets favorable calls in basketball, but not in football.

Kentucky missed a 57-yard field goal on the last play of the game.

11) Texas A&M 50, Arkansas 43 (OT)— A&M is playing a ton of freshmen; this was a wacky game that was fun to watch, if you didn’t care who won (or covered). Arkansas led 21-7 in the second quarter.

10) South Carolina 17, Louisiana Tech 16—- WR Edwards made a great catch on a 41-yard bomb that set Gamecocks up for a short FG that won game with 0:05 left.

Tech coach Skip Holtz once worked for his dad at South Carolina, but was passed over for the head coaching job when the Gamecocks hired Steve Spurrier (wise move) to replace Lou Holtz. This would’ve been sweet revenge for Skip, but it wasn’t to be.

9) Central Florida 38, Maryland 10— Terps have played three games, are already down to their #3 QB, which is a disaster. This isn’t the NFL, where you can go sign another QB if you need one. Maryland may be installing a Wildcat package soon with a RB or WR-turned-QB.

8) UL-Monroe 56, UL-Lafayette 50 (OT)— Warhawks blew a 43-22 lead with 8:00 to play in game, but won in OT, beating their in-state rivals for just second time in last 10 meetings. There were 1,119 yards of offense in this game, with no turnovers.

7) Idaho 29, South Alabama 23 (OT)— These teams are in same league, despite being located 2,578 miles from each other. How did that happen?

Idaho’s QB is Matt Linehan, whose dad Scott is the Dallas Cowboys’ offensive coordinator.

6) Upsets of the Week:
Arizona State (+15) 37, Oregon 35— Week’s biggest upset happened after midnight.
TCU (+13) 44, Oklahoma State 31— What a difference a week makes for OSU, who led 49-14 at halftime last week.
Virginia (+12) 42, Boise State 23— Big upset on Friday night.
NC State (+11) 27, Florida State 21— Seminoles are 0-2 for first time since 1989.
New Mexico (+10.5) 16, Tulsa 13— Tulsa lost 54-51 last week. No bueno.

5) Tennessee 17, UMass 13— Vols were a 27.5-point favorite; they won, but this still ain’t going to sit well with the fanbase. UMass had been 0-4 against the spread before covering here.

4) Marlins 12, Diamondbacks 6— Giancarlo Stanton hit his 57th home run.

3) San Diego State 28, Air Force 24— Most of first half was played in a monsoon, until game was finally stopped for an hour because of lightning, with Air Force leading 9-0. Rain stopped after the delay and game became more normal.

Look at the Stanford score down below; Aztecs held Cardinal to 8 first downs last week.

2) Penn State 21, Iowa 19— McSorley threw a 7-yard TD pass on the last play of the game, as the Nittany Lions avoid an upset in Iowa City.

Total yardage in game was 571-273 Penn State; those last seven yards were the difference.

1) Stanford 58, UCLA 34— It is September 24 and UCLA has already allowed 44+ points in three games this season. Gonna be a long season in Westwood; when does hoop practice start?

MLB Daily Line Drive: Sunday's picks, betting odds and analysis

Double-Play Picks

Los Angeles Angels at Houston Astros (-153, 8.5)

Tonight on Sunday Night Baseball will be the 19th and final meeting of the season between the Angels and Astros. The Astros, of course, have already clinched the American League West and are getting tuned up for the post-season, while the Angels now sit 4.5 games back in the Wildcard race and will need a minor miracle to get into the one-game play-in against the Yankees.

All good teams go through a slump at some point during the long summer grind. The Astros had theirs and have emerged with flying colors, now winners of eight of their last nine games overall. As they continue their tune-up for October, one of their major areas of concern is Lance McCullers. The hard-throwing righty has been dealing with arm fatigue and will make only his second start since July.

Over his last five starts he owns an ERA of 8.63 and a WHIP of 2.00. These numbers are not good, however throwing at the major league level is not easy when your body simply won't allow you to toss at maximum velocity. The 'Stros are hopeful that McCullers is healthy and tonight will be his tune-up for a key post-season role.

The Angels will counter with Tyler Skaggs who is only 2-6 on the season with a very pedestrian 4.30 ERA in 14 starts. The Astros rank third in Major League Baseball with a .278 batting average against left-handed pitching this season and rank second in baseball (shockingly behind the Detroit Tigers) with a .816 OPS against lefties.

The Astros will get to Skaggs and pull out the victory tonight but there will also be a bit of rust from McCullers on the home side. Bullpens will come into play for both sides and that hasn't been the most reliable tool for either club this season. This game plays out like a 6-3 or 6-4 victory for the Astros.

Pick 1: Astros -153

Pick 2: Over 8.5

Yesterday's Picks: 2-0
Season To Date: 155-139-15

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Corey Kluber, Cleveland Indians (17-4, 2.35 ERA, $302)

Corey Kluber is putting together a pretty nice little run for the Indians and when I say that, I mean he’s been the best pitcher in baseball since June 1st. The right-hander has won nine of his last ten starts and is currently on a 22-inning scoreless streak.

Over his last three starts, he has allowed only two earned runs (0.78 ERA), 11 total hits over 23 innings of work (0.52 WHIP), and a ludicrous 30 strikeouts to only one walk. Kluber has actually given up more home runs (2) then walks over this stretch.

Corey Kluber looks to continue adding to his CY Young resume in Seattle today and the Indians are available at -201.

Slumping: Doug Fister, Boston Red Sox (5-8, 4.86 ERA, $35)

It had been a couple seasons since Doug Fister had been a highly productive MLB starter, but for a few weeks where he was the best pitcher in the Red Sox rotation not named Chris Sale.

No one believed it would last long, but my goodness things fell apart quickly.

In his last two starts he has thrown six total innings, allowed 11 runs (16.50 ERA) and has a 2.6667 WHIP. Fister has actually walked more batters (6) than he has struck out (4) in those starts.

Foster and the Red Sox are -130 road chalk this afternoon in Cincinnati against rookie Jackson Stephens and the Reds.

Sunday's Top Trends

* Tigers are 1-10 in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. +151 vs. Twins.

* Red Sox are 11-1 in the last 12 meetings with Reds. -130 @ Reds.

* Over is 11-2 in Ian Kennedys last 13 starts vs. American League Central. KC/CHW Total: 9.5.

* Under is 11-0-1 in Brewers last 12 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. CHC/MIL Total: 9.

* Dodgers are 45-10 in Clayton Kershaw’s last 55 home starts. -293 vs. Giants.

Weather To Keep An Eye On

There should be no precipitation impacting any action on the field today across Major League Baseball.

The most notable winds in the forecast are at Oakland Coliseum where the Athletics are hosting the Rangers and will be greeted with a 10-15 mile per hour wind blowing out to right-center. The total is sitting at 9.5. There will be an 11-13 mile per hour wind blowing in from left-center this afternoon at Petco Park for the matchup between the Padres and visiting Rockies. The total is currently set at 8.5.

Ump Of The Day

Will Little will be calling balls and strikes tonight in Houston where the Astros will be hosting the Angels. Not great news for Astros backers as the road team has won 14 of his last 17 games behind the dish.

On the season Little ranks 84 out of 92 in home team winning percentage. If you had blindly bet $100.00 on the home team in his 25 appearances behind the plate you would have lost $1033.

The Angels are +141 road pups tonight.
