Armadillo: Sunday's six-pack

-- Virginia 89, Miami 80 2OT-- Cavaliers led by 18 at the half.

-- Seton Hall 66, Villanova 63 OT-- Pirates are 2-0 in Big East.

-- South Carolina 64, Iowa State 60-- Big win for Frank Martin's Gamecocks.

-- Butler 73, St John's 69-- Good road win for the Bulldogs.

-- Tulane 74, Memphis 66- Spoiled Tiger fans won't like this score.

-- Fresno State 59, San Diego State 57-- Aztecs have trouble scoring.

**********

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

13) Panthers 27, Cardinals 16-- You're not winning a road playoff game with your #3 QB. What were the odds there would be a safety in both games Saturday?

12) Ravens 30, Steelers 17-- John Harbaugh has made playoffs six times and won his first game every time; Baltimore visits Foxboro next weekend.

11) Florida 28, East Carolina 20-- People scoff at the SEC, the league that went 7-5 in bowl games this year. 7-5 in bowls is a bad year for the SEC, but most other leagues would be more than happy with it.

10) Over last six years, Big 14 teams have played in 49 bowls and were favored only seven times (3-3-1 vs spread). They were the dog in 42 of 49 games; interesting.

9) Bengals lost their last seven visits to Indy; their last win there was in '97, when Kelly Holcomb subbed for Colts' QB Jim Harbaugh. Cincinnati is 10-5-1 this year and was an underdog in nine of their 16 games.

8) Kentucky/Vanderbilt are only two SEC teams that didn't go bowling this year; in the next few years, people will appreciate the job James Franklin did at Vandy.

7) Is there a carryover between how a team does in its bowl game and how they play the following season(s), or is it just a random occurence?

6) TCU's basketball team has interesting bloodlines, with Mark Price's son, Chris Washburn's son and Trey Zeigler, who originally went to Central Mixchigan when his dad was named coach there, then went to Pitt when his father got fired, then bolted there for TCU-- he's a good player, Frogs are much improved.

5) ESPN has few new basketball analysts this year; of the ones I've heard so far, Jim Calhoun will be very good, Craig Robinson is good, while Stan Heath, Shane Battier don't seem to add very much. Its still early though; they'll get better with time.

If I were advising a new analyst, I'd advise them to express strong opinions, when you have one. Don't rattle on just for the sake of being controversial; be yourself, but talk about the basketball things you care about.

4) ESPN'/Elias report that Arizona Cardinals scored only 73 points over their final six regular season games (12.2 ppg), fewest by a playoff team since 1935 Giants. They were also the first playoff team ever where no one ran the ball 100+ times.

3) The retired athletic director at North Carolina has an annual pension of $266,000; this is the guy who oversaw an athletic department whose athletes were often frauds in the classroom. When do people in athletic department start losing jobs for that?

2) Bad Beats of the Day: Virginia and Jacksonville State were both 7.5-point dogs who went to overtime and then didn't cover the spread; you have a 7.5-point dog in OT, you should almost never lose. Overcoming bad beats is a challenge to gamblers.

1) If NFL Network wants a great reality show, how about talking someone into letting their job interview be filmed? No way Rex Ryan says no to that.

Armadillo: Monday's six-pack

-- Utah 71, UCLA 39-- Bruins lost last five games; Ben Howland is working on TV since the Bruins fired him. Why did they fire him again?

-- Wichita State 70, Illinois State 62-- Shockers are 12-2, but covered only one of their last eight games- they're not as strong as last season.

-- Indiana State 79, Evansville 75 OT-- Purple Aces fell into road trap after upset win over Northern Iowa in previous game.

-- Louisville 85, Wake Forest 76-- Game was tied in second half.

-- Bucks 95, Knicks 82-- New York is now a woeful 5-31. Oy.

-- Mavericks 109, Cavaliers 90-- Kyrie Irving (back) is hurt now; instead of firing the coach, maybe Cleveland should fire its trainer.

**********

Armadillo: Monday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports weekend........

13) When I was six years old, I chose the Rams as my favorite NFL team, mostly because I liked their helmets. Thank God I didn't pick the Lions.

That year was 1966, the first year of the Super Bowl era; in the 49 seasons since then, Detroit is 1-11 in playoff games, with the only win coming in 1991.

Sunday was probably the most bitter of those 11 losses, with Detroit getting hosed on a pass interference penalty with less than 9:00 left and the Lions nursing a 20-17 lead. Now Detroit blew 14-0 and 20-7 leads, but still, anyone who watched that game left it with the feeling that refs played far too big a role in the outcome.

12) How is Dez Beyant not penalized for going on the field (without his helmet) to protest the PI flag, which miraculously was then picked up? Its an automatic penalty.

Lets review the pass interference:
-- An official downfield threw a flag against the Cowboys.
-- Referee Pete Morelli announced it as a penalty.
-- FOX refereeing expert Mike Pereira said it was a penalty.
-- Even freakin' Troy Aikman (former Cowboy) said it was a penalty.
-- Who overruled the official who threw the flag?

But the flag was picked up, the Lions predictably got beat and now FOX and the NFL get a marquee matchup next Sunday, Dallas-Green Bay at Lambeau, Ice Bowl III.

11) If you care about such things, Dallas is now 7-25 against the spread as a home favorite under Jason Garrett. Its not important but it is interesting.

10) FOX analyst Pereira mentioned more than once that he disagrees with the NFL not using set crews for playoff games- they cobble together "all-star" crews, so you have teams of officials who have never worked together before. Not an ideal situation.

9) Colts 26, Bengals 10-- Marvin Lewis is 100-96-2 as coach of the Bengals, but he has not won a playoff game and some Bengal fans are calling for his job. Be careful what you wish for; in the 12 years before Lewis coached the Bengals, their record was a hideous 55-137. Change isn't always an improvement.

8) Andy Dalton is first NFL QB of the Super Bowl era to lose his first four playoff games; pretty good QB named YA Tittle also did it in the 50's. Going to be a long winter for Dalton, Lewis and the Bengals but I root for the Rams, who haven't had a winning season since 2003. I'd be pretty happy to make playoffs four years in a row.

7) Indianapolis was only NFL team not to score a TD on first drive of a game this season, but they went 71 yards on nine plays for a TD on their first drive Sunday.

6) Want to win a bar bet? Jim Mora Sr holds the dubious NFL record with 125 regular season wins, most of any head coach who never won a playoff game.

To be totally fair, it needs to be noted that Mora Sr was 48-13-1 coaching in the USFL, which was a good league; he won two of that league's three championships.

5) Pistons 114, Kings 95-- Detroit is now 5-0 since they cut Josh Smith, who had $26M left on his contract. That is called addition by subtraction.

4) College hoop referee David Hall has already worked 43 games this season, which is only 52 days old. Dude works a game damn near every night.

3) Former Florida QB Jeff Driskel transferred to Louisiana Tech, where he'll play for Skip Holtz. Lot of former Gator QBs around college football.

2) Six of the last nine Super Bowl champs played on Wild Card weekend, so if you think the teams that got byes are sure things next weekend, think again. Only twice in last fourteen years has a #1 seed won the Super Bowl.

1) One last football note: QB's get too much credit, too much blame. Tony Romo is a very good QB obviously, but he's played in 123 regular season games (78-45 record) and Sunday was only his second playoff win (2-3). Mark Sanchez (4-2) has four.

Monday's Tip Sheet

January 5, 2015

The New Year ushered-in the start of conference play in men’s college basketball and right out of the gate this Monday night are four key matchups in three major conferences featuring five nationally ranked teams.

No. 14 Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs. No. 19 North Carolina Tar Heels (ESPN, 7:00 p.m. )

Opening Odds: North Carolina -8 ½

The Fighting Irish fought-off a sluggish start this past Saturday in an 83-76 victory against Georgia Tech as 11 ½-point home favorites to go 2-0 in the ACC. They are now 14-1 straight-up on the year and 4-3 against the spread. The total has gone OVER in four games with a posted line. Sophomore guard Demetrius Jackson led a foursome of players scoring in double figures against the Yellow Jackets with 18 points as Notre Dame came close to hitting its season average of 85.9 points a game, which is ranked third in the nation.

North Carolina opened-up conference play with a 74-50 romp over Clemson this past Saturday as a 6 ½-point favorite on the road. This extended its current winning streak both SU and ATS to five games as part of an overall record of 11-3 SU (10-4 ATS). The total has gone OVER in seven of 13 games. The Tar Heels are averaging 80.8 points a game behind Marcus Paige and Kennedy Meeks, but one of the primary strengths of this team is under the boards with an average of 45.2 rebound a game, which is ranked second in the nation.

Betting Trends

-- The Irish are 7-19-1 ATS in their last 27 conference games and they are 5-12-1 ATS in their last 18 games against a team with a SU winning record. The total has gone OVER in four of their last five ACC games.

-- The Tar Heels are 4-0 ATS in their last four home games, but just 1-5 ATS in their last six ACC games. The total has gone OVER in three of their last four games at home.

-- Head-to-head in this matchup, North Carolina has won all three previous meetings SU and it is 2-1 ATS. The total has stayed UNDER in two of the three games.

No. 17 West Virginia Mountaineers vs. Texas Tech Red Raiders (ESPNU, 7:00 p.m. ET)

Opening Odds: West Virginia -5 ½

The 13-1 Mountaineers ran their current SU winning streak to six games with this past Saturday’s 78-67 romp over TCU as one-point road underdogs in their Big 12 opener. They have now covered in their last four games to go 9-4 ATS this year and the total has gone OVER in five of seven games this season with a posted line. West Virginia is ranked 24th in the nation in scoring with 78.9 points a game with senior guard Juwan Staten (16.1 PPG) leading the way. He remains questionable for Monday night after missing Saturday’s game due to illness.

Texas Tech opened conference play on Saturday with a 70-61 loss to Texas as an eight-point home underdog. It was the Red Raiders third loss in their last four games both SU and ATS after going 9-1 SU in their first 10 games. Freshman center Isaiah Manderson came off the bench to lead the team in scoring (12 points) against the Longhorns and overall the Red Raiders are averaging 68.4 PPG while shooting 44.1 percent from the floor.

Betting Trends

-- The Mountaineers 4-1 ATS in their last five Monday games, but on the road they have only covered twice in their last eight outings. The total has gone OVER in 18 of their last 24 Big 12 games.

-- The Red Raiders are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games played on a Monday and 1-6 ATS in their last seven conference games. The total has stayed UNDER in eight of their last nine home games.

-- The road team in this matchup is 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings and the total has gone OVER in four of the last five games. West Virginia has won five of those six meetings SU.

Indiana Hoosiers vs. Michigan State Spartans (Big Ten Network, 7:00 p.m. ET)

Opening Odds: Michigan State -9

Indiana closed-out 2014 on a strong note with a 70-65 upset of Nebraska as a four-point road underdog in its opening game in Big Ten play. The Hoosiers are now 11-3 SU this season with a 7-5-1 record ATS. The total has gone OVER in 10 of 12 games. This offense continues to perform at a high level when it comes to scoring with 85.2 PPG, which is the seventh-highest total in the nation. Three of five starters scored in double-figures against the Cornhuskers including freshman guard Robert Johnson, who led the team with 14 points.

The Spartans come into Monday night’s matchup fresh off a tough 68-66 loss to Maryland in their Big Ten opener as six-point home favorites. They are now 9-5 SU (8-6 ATS) and the total has gone OVER in seven of 13 games this year. Michigan State shot just 32.3 percent from the field against the Terrapins, which is far below a very respectable 47.9 shooting percentage on the year. Senior guard Travis Trice lit up the scoreboard in the losing effort with a game-high 26 points.

Betting Trends

-- The Hoosiers are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win and 1-4 ATS in their last five Monday games. The total has stayed UNDER in 12 of their last 16 Big Ten games.

-- The Spartans are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games at home and 19-7 ATS in their last 26 games following a SU loss. The total has gone OVER in nine of their last 12 games played on a Monday.

-- Head-to-head in this Big Ten clash, the road team has covered in the last four meetings and the total has gone OVER in six of the last nine meetings at Michigan State.

No. 18 Oklahoma Sooners vs. No. 11 Texas Longhorns (ESPN, 9:00 p.m.)

Opening Odds: Texas -6

Oklahoma was able to cover as a seven-point home favorite in this past Saturday’s 73-63 victory against Baylor in its Big 12 opener. This improved the Sooners to 10-3 SU and 8-5 ATS. The total went OVER the 134 ½-point line after staying UNDER in seven of its first nine games with posted odds. Oklahoma is averaging 73.9 points a game while shooting 44.5 percent from the field. It has also been solid under the boards with 40.4 rebounds a game. TaShawn Thomas and Buddy Hield combined for 44 points in the victory against the Bears.

The Longhorns are 3-1 SU in their last four games with Saturday’s win over Texas Tech, but they have failed to cover in three of those four outings. Overall, Texas is 12-2 SU (8-4 ATS) and the total has stayed UNDER in five of seven games with betting lines. This is another team that has done an excellent job of controlling the boards with an average of 43.7 rebounds a game, which is ranked fourth in the nation. Freshman forward Myles Turner has led the way with seven rebounds a game.

Betting Trends

-- The Sooners are 11-5-1 ATS in their last 17 road games and 5-2 ATS in their last seven games against a team with a SU winning record. The total has stayed UNDER in four of their last five games on the road.

-- The Longhorns are 1-4 ATS in their last five games played at home, but they are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games played on a Monday. The total has stayed UNDER in five of their last eight conference games.

-- The underdog in this Big 12 tilt has gone 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and the total has gone OVER in three of the last four games. Texas is 8-3 ATS in its last 11 home games against Oklahoma.

Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

Westgate casino's odds to win the Super Bowl.........

30-1-- Carolina-- Double digit underdogs in Seattle Saturday.

18-1-- Colts-- Will see an old friend in Denver Sunday.

18-1-- Ravens-- Best longshot on the board, no?

9-1-- Cowboys-- 8-0 road team visiting an 8-0 home team.

6-1-- Broncos-- John Fox got to a Super Bowl with Jake Delhomme at QB.

5-1-- Packers-- Rodgers has 25 TD passes, no INTs at home.

5-2-- Patriots-- Raven DC Pees used to work for New England.

9-5-- Seahawks-- Champs have played slugfests recently with Carolina.

**********

Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but.......

13) First of all, best wishes to Carolina Panthers' coach Ron Rivera and his family after part of his house caught fire late Sunday night; all six people in the house got out safely. Weird month for the Panthers, with Cam Newton rolling his car over a few weeks ago and now this. Both situations could've wound up much worse.

12) Heard an interesting story today from someone who was there: 20 years ago, Western Kentucky's football team was coached by Jack Harbaugh; you have probably heard of his sons. WKU was debating shutting down the football program, the way UAB's program just got shut down, but a celebrity stepped in to help the team out.

Doc Severinsen is one of the greatest trumpet players ever; back then, he was best known as the bandleader on the Tonight Show. He called an attorney working to keep the football team and volunteered to help their cause, which he did.

At one point, the attorney asked Severinsen why he was helping the team out, and he got an interesting answer: "I'm not interested in football, but if your team goes, the marching band goes with it." The man went out of his way to make sure those young musicians had a band to play in, which was a very cool thing to do.

11) Doc Severinsen is now 87, still alive and playing music; his website says he has two appearances in Virginia in mid-February. Western Kentucky won a bowl game this year, a game the the bandleader helped them win by his actions 20 years ago.

10) Hawks 107, Clippers 98-- Atlanta is 26-8 and atop the East; Mike Budenholzer is their coach, a former Spurs' aide who is winning the same way San Antonio does, with teamwork. But for whatever reason, their owner is selling the team; go figure.

Hawks are 19-2 in their last 21 games, with seven straight road wins.

9) Notre Dame 71, North Carolina 70-- Irish play fast, are fun to watch; they made 10-23 from arc in this game. Always good to have kids who can shoot. Curious that North Carolina doesn't have better shooters.

8) New Mexico point guard Cullen Neal, son of coach Craig Neal, will redshirt this year since his badly sprained ankle still hasn't totally recovered. Big blow for this year's Lobos, but three years from now when Neal is a 5th-year senior, they're going to be very glad this happened.

7) Cowboy-Lion game Sunday was highest rated TV show of any kind since the Oscars last March, and second-highest rated Wild Card game of all-time. .

6) Any team that hires Josh McDaniels as its head coach deserves to be mocked; the guy drafted Tim Tebow in the first round. His main claim to fame is that he knows Tom Brady. How many people has Brady made rich by his great play?

Charlie Weis should be sending Brady monthly checks for all the money he has been paid since he left the Patriots and was exposed as a fraud, and he's not the only one.

5) Mike Krzyzewski is going to win his 1,000th game this month; odd that he has not won ACC Coach of the Year since 2000. Right now, win #1,000 would be on the 17th against Louisville, but they play Miami right before then, so it could be delayed.

4) American League starting pitchers had a 3.92 ERA last year, first time they were under 4.00 since 1981, Lot of water under the bridge since then.

3) St John's gets Rysheed Jordan back for their game with Villanova tonight; party line was that Jordan's grandmother died over the weekend, which is why he missed the Butler game, but why didn't they just say that over the weekend?

2) Question of the Day: Do colleges recruit cheerleaders?

Think about it; they're on TV alot, and you can't tell me Oregon's cheerleaders don't help their recruiting at least a little. USC's, too. How are these teams of agile, cheerful women formed? If you any insight into this issue, please let me know.

1) This won't comfort Lion fans any, but in the CFL last summer, pass interference was a reviewable call, subject to being challenged. Could it happen in the NFL?
