Preview: Thundering Herd (7-4) at Bearcats (9-2)
Date: December 22, 2016 7:00 PM EDT

CINCINNATI - It's often been considered how good the No. 24 Cincinnati Bearcats could be if UC's offense ever caught up to its vaunted defense.

At the moment, the Bearcats are shooting the ball as well as any UC team in recent memory. While it's come against questionable competition, head coach Mick Cronin believes it's just a matter of time for this year's team.

"We are unselfish, we pass the ball, but we just haven't been able to make open shots," Cronin said. "We have a chance to get a lot better, and be a devastating team, when we can shoot the ball."

After comfortable wins over Texas Southern and Fairleigh Dickinson, who they beat by 51 points, the schedule tightens up for the Bearcats beginning this week when they host Marshall (7-4) on Thursday night (7 p.m. ET) at Fifth Third Arena before beginning American Athletic Conference play on Dec. 28 at Temple.

Cincinnati (9-2) is led by junior forward Kyle Washington and sophomore guard Jacob Evans who each average better than 15 points per game. Point guard Troy Caupain averages 10.5 points and 4.4 assists for the Bearcats.

The Thundering Herd comes in averaging more than 86 points per game, but they'll hit a major roadblock Thursday against UC which has held nine of its 11 opponents this season under 70 points and six foes below 40 percent field goal shooting.

Marshall also allows more than 83 points, so there will be more opportunities for the Bearcats to score, coming off a record-setting 119-point performance against Fairleigh Dickinson.

Marshall could welcome back one of its key contributors on Thursday in starting forward Ryan Taylor who's been out with a calf injury. Taylor averages 12.5 points and 6.8 rebounds. Thundering Herd head coach Dan D'Antoni told the Herald Dispatch that Taylor's swelling is down and he feels confident that he can play on Thursday.

The Herd might still be without 6-foot-7 forward Terrence Thompson who averages 12 points and 7.8 boards but has missed six games with a stomach injury.

It's the 33rd meeting between the teams with Cincinnati leading the series 20-12. The Bearcats are 15-3 against the Thundering Herd in Cincinnati. It's the first meeting since 2012 when UC won 72-56 at the Civic Center in Charleston, WV.

The gaudy offensive numbers Cincinnati put up last week resulted in a pair of weekly honors. Freshman guard Jarron Cumberland earned AAC rookie of the week after shooting 64.7% and 70% from 3-point range while averaging a team-high 14.5 points. Senior guard Kevin Johnson was named to the league's weekly honor roll after averaging 14 points.

Cincinnati ranks 24th nationally with a .496 shooting percentage. That's UC's best shooting percentage since 1996.

"These guys, they share the ball, we just haven't made open shots consistently," said Cronin. "I think we have a chance to really improve as a team as the season goes on. Obviously, the competition is going to get a lot steeper."

Preview: Governors (4-8) at Hoosiers (9-2)
Date: December 22, 2016 7:00 PM EDT

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- No. 16 Indiana isn't just unblemished at home, the Hoosiers have made a habit of embarrassing teams that visit Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.

Austin Peay (4-8) faces a daunting challenge Thursday at Indiana (9-2), which has won its eight home games by an average of 30.3 points. The only team to lose in single digits to the Hoosiers at home was No. 3 North Carolina, 76-67.

Delaware State was the Hoosiers' latest victim in a 103-56 rout on Monday. It's the fourth time Indiana has eclipsed 100 points this season and third 103-point game.

Indiana is looking to extend a home winning streak to 26 games, which would break a tie for fifth longest in program history.

Coming off a 99-85 home loss to Lipscomb Tuesday, Austin Peay has lost six in a row and is 0-5 in road games. What's particularly noteworthy about the latest loss is the Governors allowed 18 3-pointers.

"We're scoring enough points, but we sure aren't doing the job on the defensive end," said longtime Austin Peay coach Dave Loos, per The Leaf Chronicle in Clarksville, Tenn.

That's a rather inviting trend when considering Indiana averages 9.3 3-pointers per game and shoots 38.3 percent from beyond the arc (102 of 266). Junior guard James Blackmon Jr. averages a team-high 17.9 points and has hit 33 of 76 3-pointers (.434). Six Hoosiers have hit at least eight 3-pointers.

Indiana is averaging 88.1 points while Austin Peay is scoring at a 77.5-point clip. But the Governors are allowing 84.8 points while the Hoosiers are giving up 66.4 points per game.

While scoring is a given for the Hoosiers, head coach Tom Crean grilled his players about their lack of defensive intensity after an 83-78 loss to Butler Saturday in the Crossroads Classic at Indianapolis. His team responded by limiting Delaware State to 33.3 percent shooting (21 of 63).

Crean has been harping on not letting any offensive lapses impact the defensive effort.

"Absolutely we want to keep being more efficient defensively with our hands," he said. "We don't want silly reaches."

Three other Hoosiers are scoring in double digits. Junior guard Robert Johnson averages 13.2 points, sophomore forward OG Anunoby 13.2 points and sophomore center Thomas Bryant 12.4.

Indiana leads the country with a 15.0 rebounding margin. Bryant is pulling down 8.1 rebounds per game. Anunoby and sophomore forward Juwan Morgan are averaging 6.5 rebounds.

Austin Peay is averaging just 31 rebounds, 14.5 fewer than the Hoosiers, and are a minus-6.7 in rebounding margin.

Governors junior guard Josh Robinson is averaging a team-high 20.8 points, including 29 of 88 3-pointers (.330). Senior forward Kenny Jones is averaging 13.8 points and 6.8 rebounds. Senior guard/forward John Murry is averaging 12.7 points.

Jones and Murry are Indiana natives, Jones from South Bend and Murry from Indianapolis.

Loos is the most successful coach in Austin Peay and Ohio Valley Conference history with a 413-398 record in 27 seasons at the school and 495-451 in 31 seasons overall.

Crean has a 157-121 record in nine seasons at the Big Ten school and is 347-217 in 18 seasons overall.

Preview: Jayhawks (10-1) at Rebels (7-5)
Date: December 22, 2016 9:00 PM EDT

LAS VEGAS -- Even the most gifted player on a team can find it difficult adjusting to additional talent.

In the case of Kansas freshman guard Josh Jackson, a likely one-and-done contributor trending toward the NBA, the transition to college basketball meant adapting to the skills other Jayhawks possess.

"I've never been on a team this talented before in my life," said the 6-foot-8 wing, "and it was kind of an adjustment for me when I first got here."

That required Bill Self, the coach of the 10-1 Jayhawks, to emphasize that Jackson simply blend in and use his talents to make No. 3 Kansas even more diverse.

"The thing he really helped me out with, the thing he told me was just to be myself and play my game," Jackson said.

"Sometimes in the time that I first got here I was kind of holding back a little bit because I knew I was playing with more talented guys, but he doesn't really want me to do that. He wants me to be who I am."

Jackson has shown great versatility, leading the Jayhawks in rebounds (6.3) and steals (1.7), while also carrying a 15.1-point scoring average entering a matchup Thursday against UNLV (7-5) at Thomas and Mack Center.

Although Jackson is certainly a key reason behind the Jayhawks' strong start, which includes a 10-game win streak since losing their opener to Indiana, Self contends "another gear" exists within his prized freshman. Jackson was rated as the nation's top recruit by some services.

"I may be nuts, whatever, because if you're averaging 15 and six and probably the best passer on the team you should be pretty happy with that," Self said. "But I still think he can do a lot more. I really do. I think the ceiling is so high with him."

If that ceiling is tapped, the Jayhawks could be considered a favorite to draw a No. 1 seed for the NCAA Tournament. Of course, that could also require them to capture a 13th consecutive Big 12 championship. After the trip to UNLV, the Jayhawks' first true road game of the season, Big 12 play begins Dec. 30 at TCU.

Senior guard Frank Mason has played at an All-America level so far, averaging a team-high 20.3 points on 52.1 percent shooting, while distributing 5.6 assists on average. He has led Kansas in scoring in nine of 11 games.

Although the matchup against Kansas is a still challenge for UNLV, a winning nonconference record for the Rebels reflects an initial stride achieved under Marvin Menzies. The first-year coach was hired in April, yet was forced to fill several roster spots.

The Rebels are coming off a 68-61 win over Southern Illinois, overcoming 23 turnovers behind a 23-point performance from Tyrell Green. The senior forward averages 14.1 points, second on the team behind sophomore guard Jalen Poyser (14.6). Poyser leads UNLV in 3-pointers (26) and assists (45).

"We'll try to design something (for Kansas), but we're not going to try to get too far out of our box," Menzies said. "We've got to get ready for conference. That's what this is all about. At the end of the day, we want to be able to go into conference and own our signature."

And that is?

"People have got to know when they play us they've got to take tough twos," Menzies said. "We're going to defend better than what we've been defending."

In two other meetings against ranked opponents, UNLV was walloped 94-45 by Duke and 83-63 by Oregon. The Rebels open Mountain West play on Dec. 28 at Colorado State.

Preview: Bears (8-3) at Trojans (11-0)
Date: December 22, 2016 11:00 PM EDT

Missouri State will match up with a nationally ranked team for the first time this season on Thursday when the Bears face No. 23 USC in the semifinals of the Las Vegas Classic at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas.

"We're excited to go on the road," said Jarrid Rhodes, who recently moved into the starting lineup for Missouri State. "This is a great opportunity for us, going to play a Top 25 team. I think we still have some things to work on, but I feel like, overall, we'll be ready."

USC (11-0) is off to its best start and enjoying its longest winning streak since going 16-0 to begin the 1970-71 season. That team went on to finish 24-2.

Missouri State (8-3) has won three in a row and four of its last five. The Bears could easily have an even better record. They suffered a two-point loss to DePaul and a three-point loss to Valparaiso.

The winner of Thursday's matchup will advance to the championship game to play DePaul or Wyoming, who will meet in the other semifinal.

USC will try to avoid the sluggish starts that forced them to come from behind in their most recent victories over Troy and Cornell. The Trojans have rallied to win after trailing by nine points or more six times already this season.

"We have to stop getting off to slow starts," said Jordan McLaughlin, the team's second-leading scorer. "We have to have focus and energy off the bat."

USC is led by Elijah Stewart, who is averaging 15.5 points and 5.9 rebounds. McLaughlin averages 13.6 points, 5.2 assists and 3.2 rebounds. Chimezie Metu is averaging 13.3 points and a team-high 7.8 rebounds.

Missouri State is led by Ronnie Rousseau III, who is averaging 13.2 points per game and shooting 37.9 percent from 3-point range. Alize Johnson is averaging 12.5 points and nine rebounds. Dequon Miller averages 11.3 points, four assists and 3.2 rebounds.

Obediah Church has adjusted nicely to his new role as a reserve for Missouri State. Church has made 14 of 17 shots from the field in four games since coming off the bench for the first time in his career on Dec. 10.

Church has filled a backup role since missing two games with an injury, but he recently said he is "close to 100 percent." He had 12 points, nine rebounds and two blocked shots in Monday's victory over Chicago State.

"It's been a rough patch the last couple weeks, but I plan on getting better real soon," Church said. "I'm just out there trying to do what I can do for the team -- defense, block shots, rebounding, whatever I can."

Before the semifinal matchups were finalized, Missouri State coach Paul Lusk said his team was excited about a potential game against USC.

"We get to play two games on a neutral floor," Lusk said. "One could be an undefeated team in the Top 25, so we're looking forward to playing basketball out there."

Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack

— Duke 72, Elon 61— Grayson Allen is a punk; can’t wait until he pulls this stuff in the NBA and someone pummels him.

— ESPN treated Kentucky-Louisville like the Super Bowl, then treated the whole halftime show talking about Duke.

— St John’s 93, Syracuse 60— Yowza; where did that score come from?

— Fairfield 89, Boston College 83— Worst thing is that Fairfield was favored to win.

— DeMarcus Cousins has 103 career technical fouls, 23 more than anyone else during that time.

— Louisville 73, Kentucky 70— Fun game to watch; tremendous effort given by both sides.

**********

Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Bottom 4, top 9 in the NFL

32) Browns— Have shot at their first win when the warm weather Chargers visit Lake Erie on Christmas Eve.

31) 49ers— Lost their last 13 games, but play team they got their only win against this week, when they visit Los Angeles. Rams are actually favored to win a game.

30) Jaguars— They can’t even fire their coach right; word got out that they canned Gus Bradley before the team plane took off from Houston. Apparently the flight home was fairly awkward.

29) Rams– Good chance for Goff’s first career win this week.

9) Packers— They’ve had Favre/Rodgers at QB for the last 25 years; shouldn’t they have won more than two Super Bowls?

8) Dolphins— Other than a healthy Tony Romo, Matt Moore is the best backup QB in the NFL and now Miami fans are going to find that out. Only time Dolphins made playoffs in last 14 years was the year Brady tore up his knee in Week 1 and missed the rest of that year.

7) Seahawks— Their starting RT was a basketball player at Western Kentucky who played about one half of one college football game.

6) Falcons— They just pounded the dregs of the NFL, now they step up in class this week and have a rematch with the Panthers, who are playing on a very short week.

T4) Raiders/Chiefs— Oakland has the better record but the Chiefs beat them twice. Not fond of KC blowing two games at home in the last month; they need to be better in the red zone.

3) Giants— Not a huge fan of theirs but they win every week and that is what counts. This is where I tell you that the NFL should take radios out of players’ helmets and let the QB’s call their own damn plays- thats why you prepare for six days to play on Sunday. NFL would have a way better product if they let Game Day be the Players’ Day.

2) Cowboys— Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen is being mentioned for the Rams’ HC job, in large part because he was Dak Prescott’s college coach. I can think of worse things.

1— Patriots— What happens when a big time college QB refuses to play in a bowl game so he doesn’t get hurt and ruin his draft prospects? I’m thinking if a QB did that it would hurt his stock a lot, since the QB is a team leader and the captain doesn’t desert his ship, even if it is sinking.

Top 25 roundup: No. 3 Kansas routs UNLV
December 23, 2016

LAS VEGAS -- Josh Jackson scored a game-high 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds as No. 3 Kansas cruised past UNLV 71-53 on Thursday night.

It was the 11th straight win for the Jayhawks (11-1) since a 103-99 overtime loss to Indiana in the State Farm Armed Forces Classic in Honolulu.

Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk scored 20 points, including 4-of-6 3-pointers, and Frank Mason III added 13 points, eight assists and five rebounds for Kansas.

Tyrell Green led UNLV (7-6) with 12 points. Kris Clyburn finished with 10 points and 10 rebounds, and Jalen Poyser added 10 points for the Runnin' Rebels, who lost for the fourth time in six games.

Jackson had 14 points and five rebounds in the first half despite sitting out the final six minutes with two fouls as Kansas built a 42-20 halftime lead.

No. 16 Indiana 97, Austin Peay 62

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- The Hoosiers arrived ready to shoot from long range in obliterating the Governors with 15 3-pointers.

Indiana (10-2) was well aware of the scouting report on Austin Peay (4-9), which allowed 18 3-pointers two days ago in a home loss to Lipscomb. The 15 3-pointers tied a season high set in a season-opening victory over No. 3 Kansas in Hawaii.

James Blackmon Jr.'s game-high 24 points included four 3-pointers. The hottest Hoosier early on was Robert Johnson, who made five of his six 3-pointers in the opening half and finished with 20 points.

No. 19 Saint Mary's 74, South Carolina 47

MORAGA, Calif. -- Jock Landale recorded 20 points and 11 rebounds as the Gaels warmed up for the start of West Coast Conference play with an easy victory over the Bulldogs.

Tanner Krebs had 11 points, and Calvin Hermanson added 10 points and six boards for Saint Mary's (10-1), which outrebounded South Carolina State 42-16.

The Bulldogs (3-9) were led by Eric Eaves, who had 11 points.

South Carolina State hung with the Gaels through the first half and trailed 33-26 with 17:24 left. But back-to-back 3-pointers by Emmett Naar pushed the margin to 13 points, and the Bulldogs were unable to recover.

No. 23 USC 83, Missouri State 75

LAS VEGAS -- Elijah Stewart scored 21 points to lead the Trojans to victory over the Bears in the Las Vegas Classic at Orleans Arena.

Jordan McLaughlin had 19 points and five assists for USC (12-0), which is enjoying its best start and its longest winning streak since going 16-0 to open the 1970-71 season. The Trojans play Wyoming on Friday in a final-round game in Las Vegas.

Chimezie Metu had 13 points, nine rebounds, four assists and three blocked shots for USC.

Alize Johnson posted 17 points and nine rebounds for Missouri State (8-4), which had its three-game winning streak snapped.

No. 24 Cincinnati 93, Marshall 91 (OT)

CINCINNATI -- Troy Caupain's put-back with seven-tenths of a second remaining lifted the Bearcats to a thrilling victory over the Thundering Herd.

Gary Clark scored a career-high 26 points and Jacob Evans added 25 for Cincinnati (10-2), which overcame a 3-point shooting barrage by Marshall (7-5) in the first half.

Stevie Browning scored 28 points with six 3-pointers and Jon Elmore added 20 points for the Thundering Herd, who made a season-high 17 made 3-pointers -- the most the Bearcats ever allowed and two shy of Marshall's school record.

The Thundering Herd had a season-high 14 3s in the first half and led 50-38 at halftime before Cincinnati rallied after the break.

Preview: (9-3) at Mountainers (10-1)
Date: December 23, 2016 4:00 PM EDT

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Albeit on different scales, No. 11 West Virginia and Northern Kentucky enter Friday's matchup attempting to gain a better grip on handling success.

The Mountaineers (10-1) won their sixth straight game 84-57 over Radford despite an underwhelming second half that coach Bob Huggins labeled "really lethargic."

Northern Kentucky (9-3), after defeating NAIA member Brescia 97-73 to extend a five-game winning streak, heard coach John Brannen muttering similar criticism.

"I didn't think it was our best effort, and I was a little disappointed in how we came out," Brannen said. "I'm sitting here saying that with a 20-point win, but the bottom line is we have to get better."

Against West Virginia's waves of athleticism and pressure defense, the Norse probably need to play a lot better. No opponent has threatened the Mountaineers at home, where they're 8-0 with an average margin of victory exceeding 41 points.

Still, Huggins sees lapses from his players that won't be so tolerable once Big 12 play begins next week.

"It's a progression of things. You try to get competent at something and then you try to add something to it," he said. "And if you don't stay competent at the building blocks of what you're trying to do then everything's going to crumble. We're trying to explain to them that we don't want it to crumble."

While West Virginia dominated last year's meeting 107-61 in Morgantown, Northern Kentucky appears better than advertised in Brannen's second season. After being picked seventh in the 10-team Horizon League, the Norse are 4-1 in road games so far, with the loss coming at Illinois, 79-64.

"Schematically, they'll do as good a job as anybody has done against pressure," said Huggins, whose squad leads the nation by forcing 26.3 turnovers a game.

Sophomore forward Drew McDonald averages a team-high 17.3 points and 7.8 rebounds for NKU while guard Lavone Holland contributes 15.7 points and shoots 43 percent from 3-point range.

Cole Murray, a 6-foot-7 senior who averages 10.7 points, has taken 94 of his 99 shots from 3. The Norse also draw big contributions from freshman Carson Williams (10.8 points, 6.1 rebounds).

West Virginia's rotation goes 13 players deep, though Huggins figures to tighten it up come conference play. Forwards Esa Ahmad (13 points, 5.6 rebounds) and Nathan Adrian (10.6 points, 6.1 rebounds) are inside-out scoring threats, and Jevon Carter (9.7 points, 4.5 assists) ranks fifth nationally in steals.

Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

NFL trends with Week 16 upon us……

— Seahawks are 17-6 as a recent home favorite vs NFC West foes.

— Tennessee is 7-25-2 vs spread in its last 34 divisional games.

— Carolina is 6-10-1 vs spread in its last 17 games.

— Green Bay is 22-11-1 in its last 34 divisional games.

— Saints are 13-6 vs spread in their last nineteen games.

— Buffalo is 14-8-1 in its last 23 games vs AFC East opponents.

**********

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud…….

13) Eagles 24, Giants 19— Dallas is NFC East champ and #1 seed in NFC. Horrible late hit call on the Giants set up Philly’s third TD— one of the worst penalties ever. Carson Wentz was running and Eli Apple slid to avoid him but they made contact- it wouldn’t have been a foul in basketball.

12) The more I think about it, the more adamant I am that the NFL needs to rid itself of penalties for taunting, celebration and fines for uniform violations. They would gain millions of dollars in positive press and give mainstream media less stuff to whine about.

Players would police the celebrations themselves if they got out of hand and now and then they would for sure. But it would also get people talking more about what they saw and that generates lots of free publicity. Nothing wrong with that.

11) 1B/DH Edwin Encarnacion signed with Cleveland for three years, $60M.

10) Pitcher Ivan Nova gets $26M for three years from the Pirates.

9) Bartender here at the Aria Hotel is a White Sox fan; he wasn’t the least bit happy when the Cubs won the World Series and he seemed annoyed that I thought he might be.

8) You know that guy Mike Greenberg who is on ESPN with Mike Golic in the mornings? He just signed a contract for $6.25M a year— seriously, he did. Good Lord, there is a guy who has made thievery legal— $6.25M a year for him??? Yikes.

7) Idaho 61, Colorado State 50— High scoring Potato Bowl, but who wants to go to a bowl and freeze your butt off? Idaho plays its home games in a dome; their QB is Matt Linehan, whose dad is the Dallas Cowboys’ OC. Vandals are de-emphasizing football after next year, so this will be a great memory for everyone associated with the program.

6) NFL will have a 4-team developmental league next spring, which sounds very similar to what the ill-fated UFL was a few years ago. Teams will play six games each.

5) Random food comments:
— Aria Cafe is open 24/7 and it is outstanding. Had chicken and waffles for the first time, and their fettuccini alfredo is tremendous.
— Pizzeria near the Aria sports book is expensive and um, no bueno. Greasiest pizza I’ve ever had, seriously, and I’ve eaten a large amount of pizza.
— Highly recommend the egg nog milkshakes at McDonald’s.

4) USC 83, Missouri State 75— Trojans are 12-0, a highly unlikely unbeaten team.

3) Cincinnati 93, Marshall 91 OT— Credit to Dan D’Antoni, Marshall’s coach/Mike’s brother; you score 91 points on Cincinnati, even with an extra 5:00, thats some great offense. D’Antoni has made the Thundering Herd a competitive team fairly quickly.

2) LaSalle 98, Mercer 96 3OT— Game of the night was in Macon, GA.

1— Duke caved in to public pressure and suspended Grayson Allen indefinitely for numerous tripping violations: Here are Duke’s next few games:

Dec 31- @Virginia Tech— Could be dicey in Blacksburg.
Jan 4- Ga Tech and Boston College, both at home. Duke couldn’t lose to these two teams at home if all the Blue Devils showed up drunk.

Jan 10— @ Florida State— How much you want to bet Allen is back for this game????? This is going to be a very good game, even if Allen plays.
