**********

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

13) Thanksgiving Week is our busiest week of the year on this site, so much stuff going on, with pro/college football, NBA, NHL and taking a crash course on college basketball as their season cranks up. I’m a little bleary-eyed today, so I apologize for any typos here today.

How weird is college football?
— Texas A&M fired Kevin Sumlin (51-26, 25-23 in SEC games); he was also 35-17 at Houston, 24-8 in conference games.
— Arizona State ousted Todd Graham (46-31, 31-23 in Pac-12 games); he is 49-29 at three other coaching stops, 32-17 in conference games.

When guys with winning conference records get fired, things are a little too strange.

12) Tennessee let it be known they were going to hire former Rutgers/Bucs’ coach Greg Schiano, but the backlash on social media was so severe, the school backed down and now won’t hire Schiano, who was 68-67 at Rutgers, 28-48 in league games (25-24 the last six years).

My suggestion to the fine folks in Nashville? Give Les Miles a call; he’s a pretty good coach.

11) Dan Mullen bolts from Mississippi State to Florida, both SEC schools; do you realize what a kick in the teeth it is to bolt to a school in the same league?

I can only remember this happening twice before:
After the 1991 season, Arizona State hired Bruce Snyder away from Cal.
After the 1997 season, Tommy Tuberville jumped from Ole Miss to Auburn.

10) Nebraska Cornhuskers went 4-8 this season, first time they lost eight football games in a season since 1957.

9) Northern Iowa lost 64-50 to Villanova in the Bahamas Friday; UNI didn’t take a free throw, none, zero, bupkis. Last year, only three D-I teams all season didn’t take a foul shot in a game.

8) Underrated accomplishment; Central Florida’s football team is 11-0; two years ago, they were 0-12. How is that not blasted over ESPN every day?

7) South Florida QB Quinton Flowers threw for over 500 yards Saturday, ran for 100+ more, but the Bulls lost 49-42 to UCF. Quite a performance.

6) New England Patriots have started 14 drives in enemy territory this season; their opponents have started one drive in Patriot territory.

5) Fresno State upset Boise State Saturday; their reward? They play Boise State again this week in the Mountain West title game. Not often football teams meet two weeks in a row.

4) If Derrick Rose does indeed walk away from the NBA, he leaves $80M from adidas on the table. You have to be pretty freakin’ miserable to quit a job that pays you that much cash. Rose skipped town on the Knicks last year, too; hope the guy finds happiness.

3) Arizona went 0-3 at the Battle of Atlantis, and became the first basketball team ever to go from #2 in the top 25 to unranked, all in one week.

2) Speaking of which, Jay Bilas said on ESPN Sunday night that he expects a tournament with a format similar to the PK80 event to surface in the future. No one mentioned a prospective site, but Las Vegas makes perfect sense, with MGM, Thomas-Mack, Mandalay Bay arenas all in town, plus the bigger T-Mobile Arena and the smaller Orleans and SouthPoint arenas.

1) Still hard to believe that Alabama was +8 in a 10:41 stretch of their basketball game with Minnesota Saturday, while the Crimson Tide was playing 3-on-5. Freshman PG Collin Sexton scored 19 of his 40 points while his team was shorthanded. Gophers won 79-74, but they were up 13 when the game turned into 5-on-3.

NCAAB Game of the Day: Baylor at Xavier betting preview and odds
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No. 16 Baylor Bears vs. No. 20 Xavier Musketeers (-4.5, 145.5)

Baylor emerged unscathed from a quality foursome at the Hall of Fame Classic, but now it's right back to work. The 16th-ranked Bears face another challenging opponent Tuesday when they visit 20th-ranked Xavier in an intriguing non-conference tilt.

In a four-team field that also included Wisconsin, Creighton and UCLA, Baylor took care of the Badgers and Bluejays to capture the tournament title using its suffocating defense. The Bears gave up 65 points to Wisconsin and 59 to Creighton and have yet to allow more than 66 in any game this season. Their 59.4 points allowed currently ranks 17th nationally and should pose a good test for Xavier and its star swingman Trevon Bluiett. In the title game of the Las Vegas Invitational, Bluiett notched a season-low 11 points and the Musketeers' defense also came up small in a 102-86 defeat to Arizona State.

TV: 6:30 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1

LINE HISTORY: Xavier opened as 4.5-point home favorites and, as of Tuesday afternoon, that number has not moved. The total hit betting boards at 143.5 and has been bumped up two full points to 145.5.

ABOUT BAYLOR (5-0 SU, 2-0 ATS, 0-1-1 O/U): The Bears received 49 of their 65 points from three players against Creighton with King McClure contributing 19 points and Jo Lual-Acuil Jr. and Terry Maston chipping in 15 apiece. Lual-Acuil also had 15 rebounds en route to his third straight double-double and the 6-11 senior is averaging 14 points and 11.2 boards. Manu Lecomte, the team's top scorer at 19 points per outing, registered only nine points on 2-of-8 shooting versus the Bluejays in by far his worst effort of the young season.

ABOUT XAVIER (5-1 SU, 5-1 ATS, 5-1 O/U): J.P. Macura scored a team-high 23 points against Arizona State after scoring eight total over the previous two games. Macura is the team's second-leading scorer at 13.8 points per contest behind only Bluiett (21.3), who is shooting a blistering 56.2 percent from the field and 51.3 percent from behind the arc. Kaiser Gates isn't far behind at 42.1 percent from long range, including multiple 3s in five of the team's six games.

TRENDS:

* Bears are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 vs. Big East.
* Musketeers are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 games overall.
* Under is 19-9-2 in Bears' last 30 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.
* Over is 5-1 in Musketeers' last 6 home games.

TIP-IN BETTING TIDBITS:

1. Baylor has won 21 straight non-conference home games during the regular season.

2. The Bears are 3-0 against Xavier with all three matchups coming since 2009.

3. Only one Xavier player, F Tyrique Jones (eight), has more than three blocks in six games.

CONSENSUS: 66 percent of contest players like Xavier to cover as 4.5-point home favorites against Baylor.
