**********

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Mid-week musings……..

13) K-State 95, Wake Forest 88— Wildcats were 25-31 (80.6%) inside arc; Deacons didn’t play whole lot of defense. Big X teams are now 5-1 vs ACC teams this year, with one win North Carolina crowning Oklahoma State in Maui Classic.

12) Mt St Mary’s 67, New Orleans 66— Mount was 10-19 on arc, UNO 1-9; plus, with 6:41 left, the Privateers’ big guy tried to strangle his teammate (the point guard) as they went into a TV timeout- the big guy was yanked from game and never returned. Have feeling the better team lost. Mt St Mary’s advances to play Villanova next.

11) How play-in teams who advance make out in round of 64: “JV (16-seed)” play-in winners are 5-7 vs spread when facing a #1 seed…….”Varsity (11-12 seed)” play-in winners are 7-5 vs spread in round of 64- those 12 teams have gone 1-1 SU in round of 64 all six years they’ve had it.

10) Venezuela played its play-in game in the WBC Monday with Jose Altuve on the bench; interesting decision by manager Omaz Vizquel, who used Rougned Odor instead. Now that they’ve advanced to San Diego, will be curious to see who they start at 2B in the next round.

9) Is there anyone who thinks Magic Johnson will do a better job than Mitch Kupchak did as the Lakers GM? Magic was a great, great player; wasn’t a very good coach- these are all different skills.

8) Of the eight 15-seeds who won first round NCAA tourney games, only Florida Gulf Coast in 2013 won its second round game- those teams are 2-5-1 vs spread in their second round games.

7) Coaching carousel; George Washington named interim coach Maurice Joseph its full time coach; South Florida named former Dayton/Ga Tech coach Brian Gregory its new coach, after Akron’s Keith Dambrot (Lebron James’ HS coach) turned them down.

6) Thank the Lord for spring training baseball on TV; Tuesday afternoon, I could barely see the house across the street from mine, thats how hard it was snowing. Watched Phillies-Braves, then Giants-Indians and was warm vicariously thru those broadcasts.

5) Atlanta Braves are leaving Disney’s Wide World of Sports for the Sarasota area next spring, as they reduce travel time to/from spring training games. Used to go to WWOS in July to watch AAU games; Tampa Bay Bucs had training camp there then- remember seeing Tom Crean (then at Marquette) watching the Bucs practice with his young son sitting on his shoulders.

4) No team lost its first conference tournament game, then won a national title that year. This year; Kansas, Louisville, Baylor, Purdue fall into that group this year.

3) If you care about such things, Kansas State was the last at-large team to make the NCAA tournament.

2) What exactly does Joe Lunardi do for the next ten months?

1— Here is my Final Four; North Carolina-Arizona-Villanova-Oregon. I’ll pick the Wildcats to repeat as national champs. Enjoy the games!!!

Wednesday's NCAA Tournament First Four betting preview and odds
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Providence edged the Trojans 70-69 in a first-round game last season and the teams will face each other again Wednesday.

Wednesday night in the NCAA Tournament features the final pair of play-in games - the NCAA definitely doesn't want you to call them "play-in" games but they are definitely play-in games. The battle of potential No. 16 seeds has UC Davis taking on NC Central and Providence and USC will battle for the right to take on SMU as a No. 11 seed in the Big Dance.

First Four games to be played at University of Dayton Arena in Dayton, Ohio.

(16) UC Davis Aggies vs (16) North Carolina Central Eagles (-3.5, 133)

Big West champion UC Davis makes its first appearance in the NCAA Tournament on Wednesday night when the Aggies take on North Carolina Central in the First Four in Dayton, Ohio. UC Davis, which finished its transition to Division I in 2007, has won six of its last seven games, while the Eagles took the MEAC tournament to make the Big Dance for the second time and the winner of the 16th-seed matchup faces top-seeded Kansas in the first round of the Midwest Regional Friday in Tulsa, Okla.

The Aggies beat Cal State Fullerton in overtime in the semifinals before holding top seed UC Irvine to 16 points in the first half en route to a 50-47 victory in the Big West championship game. “Defense is underrated and overlooked,” UC Davis coach Jim Les told reporters after the final, “but our players brought their hard hat with them for every game.” North Carolina Central, which lost to Iowa State in its only other appearance 93-75 in 2014, won 13 straight at one point this season and knocked off Missouri as well. Senior guard Patrick Cole leads the way for the Eagles, averaging team highs of 19.5 points and 5.7 assists.

TV: 6:40 p.m. ET, truTV

LINE HISTORY: North Carolina Central opened Sunday night as 3.5-point favorites over UC Davis. The point spread went as low as 3 and as high as 4 before settling back into the opening number of -3.5. The total hit the board at 131.5, went as high as 132.5, dropped slightly to 132, before rebounding up to 133 on Wednesday morning. Check out the complete line history here.

ABOUT UC DAVIS (22-12 SU, 17-12-1 ATS, 12-17-1 O/U): Junior forward Chima Moneke (14.4 points, 9.4 rebounds) was named Big West tournament MVP, while leading scorer Brynton Lemar (16.1 points), a senior guard, scored 20 in the final. Sophomore guard Siler Schneider is the only other player averaging in double figures scoring (10.5) and senior guard Darius Graham tops the team in assists (3.2). The Aggies only shot 34.6 percent from the field in the Big West championship game, but held UC Irvine to 38 percent shooting and forced 20 turnovers.

ABOUT NORTH CAROLINA CENTRAL (25-8 SU, 6-0 ATS, 1-5 O/U): The Eagles won the MEAC regular-season title by going 13-3 with just two players scoring more than 10 points per game. Cole, who also averages seven rebounds, was named Most Outstanding Player of the MEAC tournament and senior guard Dajuan Graf averages 14.3 points and 5.2 assists overall to add support. Junior forward Kyle Benton tops the team in rebounding (8.2) and shoots 63.4 percent from the field, while senior guard Rashaun Madison boasts a team-high 89 makes from 3-point range.

TRENDS:

* Aggies are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall.
* Eagles are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
* Under is 6-0 in Aggies last 6 overall.
* Under is 7-1-1 in Eagles last 9 neutral site games as a favorite.

CONSENSUS: The early consensus data has 60 percent of bettors laying the points with North Carolina Central, while 51 percent of totals wagers are on the Under.

(11) Southern California Trojans vs (11) Providence Friars (+2.5, 141)

Providence and USC won’t have to wait very long for an NCAA Tournament rematch, as the teams meet in a First Four contest on Wednesday in Dayton, Ohio. Providence edged the Trojans 70-69 in a first-round game last season on Rodney Bullock’s basket with 1.5 seconds remaining, and the teams will face each other again for the right to move on as the 11th seed in the Eastern Region and play sixth-seeded SMU in Tulsa on Friday.

USC is making its second straight appearance and 18th overall in the Big Dance, finishing tied for fifth in the Pac-12 before losing 76-74 to rival UCLA in the conference tournament quarterfinals. The well-balanced Trojans, who dropped five of their last eight games, have plenty of size up front while junior guard Jordan McLaughlin provides 13.1 points and 5.5 assists per game. The Friars finished the season strong to reach the Tournament for the 19th time and fourth year in a row, posting six straight victories – four against teams that qualified for the event - before losing to Creighton 70-58 in the Big East quarterfinals. Bullock leads Providence in scoring (15.7 points) and rebounding (6.4) but must recover after averaging just 3.5 points and missing 11 of his 12 field-goal attempts over the last two games.
