Sunday’s List of 13: Wrapping up a college football Saturday

13) Auburn 28, Texas A&M 24— Talk about gagging a game away; with 7:14 left, A&M led 24-14 and had the ball on the Auburn 43. The ESPN TV guys were talking about running the ball and about clock management, taking time off the clock, but the Aggies threw an INT on the very next play. Not good.

Game completely swung on that play; Auburn had TD drives of 71-58 yards in the last 6:00 and pulled out a game that looked lost midway thru the 4th quarter.

12) West Virginia 42, Texas 41— This was a tremendous game, too bad Gus Johnson had the play-by-play and went into his hysterical act with both TD’s late in this game. He calls the action well, but if the game is close at the end, it always has to become about him and his screaming.

West Virginia trailed 41-34, but scored a TD with 0:16 left; Mountaineers went for 2 and the win— QB Will Grier ran it in for the two points.

I’ve said here before that I’m not a fan of going for two points in that situation, but Grier is a senior QB and coach Holgorsen trusted him to get the two points, and he did.

11) Georgia 34, Kentucky 17— Swift/Holyfield both ran the ball for 100+ yards as the Dawgs KO’d Kentucky and clinched the SEC East title- Georgia plays Auburn next week.

Kentucky RB Benny Snell Jr is very good; his dad was a RB for the Las Vegas Outlaws in the XFL in the one year that league existed. Snell’s granddad is cousins with Matt Snell, a terrific RB who helped the Jets win Super Bowl III.

10) South Carolina 48, Ole Miss 44— Teams played so little defense, it looked like they were auditioning to join the Big X. Ole Miss didn’t punt until midway thru the third quarter.

Rebels gained 616 yards but lost; Gamecocks averaged 11.3 yards/pass attempt and won.

9) Michigan State 24, Maryland 3— Terrapins’ offensive line were the people who were upset about coach coach DJ Durkin being re-instated this week; they helped get him fired the next day, but the OL was useless in this game. Maryland ran 53 plays for a total of only 100 yards.

8) Central Florida 52, Temple 40— UCF is 8-0, but when you’re trailing Temple 34-28 at the half and the Owls get 35 first downs against you, you’re not going too impress the pollsters who may not want to be impressed in the first place.

7) Upsets of the Week:
— Illinois (+9.5) 55, Minnesota 31
— Pittsburgh (+7.5) 23, Virginia 13
— Baylor (+7.5) 35, Oklahoma State 31
— Tulane (+7.5) 41, South Florida 15
— UL-Monroe (+7) 44, Georgia Southern 25
— Texas State (+6) 40, Georgia State 31
— Missouri (+6) 38, Florida 17

6) Clemson 77, Louisville 16— Two years ago, Louisville was -2.5 at Clemson, but lost 42-36; they were +39 in this game and didn’t come close to covering. Even Dabo Swinney’s son scored a TD, his first-ever college touchdown. Clemson ran the ball for 492 yards, which is just total domination.

5) Ohio State 36, Nebraska 31— OSU fans are spoiled; Buckeyes trailed 21-16 at halftime, got booed off their home field- not much enthusiasm for a team that is now 8-1.

4) NC State 47, Florida State 28— Seminoles were 5-6 LY; they’re 4-5 this year. From 2012-16, FSU was 59-9; what the hell happened?

3) Purdue 38, Iowa 36— Boilermakers kicked a FG with 0:08 left to win the game after blowing a 35-23 fourth quarter lead. Iowa tried and failed on a pair of 2-point conversions earlier in second half, otherwise this might’ve been an overtime game.

Purdue has won five of its last six games after an 0-3 start.

2) Oklahoma 51, Texas Tech 46— Tech led 31-28 at halftime, but apparently their QB Bowman got drilled in the head with a football while warming up for the second half and went back to the locker room for evaluation- he didn’t play in the second half, or return to the sidelines.

1) Michigan 42, Penn State 7— Wolverines’ defense is really good; in their last six games, Michigan has allowed 12.5 ppg, only 185.8 ypg. Notre Dame/SMU are only two teams that gained more than 300 yards against the Wolverines this season.

Penn State lost three of last five games; they’re 0-3 when scoring less than 30 points.

Nets rebounding

The 76ers travel to New York to take on the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center. The 76ers enter hot, winning four of their last five games and averaging 113.1 points on 43.7 percent shooting, and defensively allow 112 points on 43.2 percent shooting. Although the 76ers have yet to win on the road, they are still four-point favorites.

The Nets are averaging 108.6 points on 45.9 percent shooting. Defensively the have allowed over 112.9 points per game.

The 76ers have not been good at defending opposing power forwards allowing them to score 28.2 points per game and shoot 54 percent from the floor. Their issues with that position does not stop at shooting, as they allow an astounding 15.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists.

Nets power forward Jarrett Allen has found success inside the paint, and is contributing an average of 11 points a game and an average of 7.4 rebounds. Take Over his rebounding total of 6.5 as he should be able to take advantage of missed shots.
99 problems

The 3-6 New York Knicks travel to Washington to take on the 1-7 Wizards. The Knicks have been off to a slow start this season like the Wizards, but have managed to win three of their last four games.

The Wizards are happy to have Dwight Howard finally healthy enough to play. Although they lost his first game back 134-111 to the Thunder at home Friday, Howard still contributed 20 points on seven of eight shooting. The Wizards shot 51 percent from the field and contributed to the total with nine made 3-point shots, but defensively they continued to prove porous.

Knicks center Enes Kanter should be able to feast off missed shots and contribute in other offensive categories. The Wizards allow opposing centers to shoot 58.8 percent from the floor contributing 25.3 points, 4.5 assists and 17.2 rebounds. Kanter looks like another big man primed for a successful day. Take Over his points, rebounds and assists total of 26.5.


Orlando hoping for some West Coast Magic

The Orlando Magic travel to AT&T Center to take on the San Antonio Spurs. The Magic are 2-6 because they are allowing opponents to score substantially more than the points per game they are putting up. The Magic average 99.9 points on 41.4 percent shooting. They allow over 10 more points per game surrendering 111.9 points on 46.8 percent shooting. They rank dead last in three statistical categories of points per game, field goal percentage and are 29th in the Association in 3-point shots per game.

The Spurs hope to improve off their four-game winning streak. They are averaging 114.6 points per game on 46.6 percent shooting. They are surrendering 113 points on 47.8 percent shooting. These two teams met each other in the final preseason game and seem to be trending in opposite directions. Although both teams, at times, can have trouble putting up points, taking Over the 206 looks intriguing as the total is very low.
Timberwolves road struggles

The Timberwolves are still in search of their first road win of the season, and they are hoping to find it as they travel to Portland to take on a 6-3 Trail Blazers team. The Timberwolves average 114.1 points on 43.9 percent shooting and surrender 118.2 points on 47.8 percent shooting. They are led by Jimmy Butler putting up 22.3 points per contest.

The Blazers are averaging 118.9 points on 47.3 prevent shooting. Defensively, they surrender 110.4 points on 42.9 percent shooting. Although Damian Lillard's unbelievable start has cooled down a bit, he is still averaging 29.1 points per game.

The Blazers are 4-0 in their last meetings versus the Western Conference, 20-6 ATS in their last 26 home games and 4-1 over their last five at home. The Timberwolves have not enjoyed playing in Portland with a 1-12 SU record over their last 13 meetings. Despite their outright struggles winning in Portland, the Blazers are still coming off a late night back-to-back where they lost to the Lakers. Minnesota should be able to put points on the board. Take Over 109 on Minnesota's team total.


No Kawhi, no problem

The Raptors hope to extend on their 8-1 record as they travel to Los Angeles to take on the 3-5 Lakers fresh off a winning performance last night. The Lakers have been fine playing on back-to-backs, posting a 5-1 ATS record over their last 6 games.

The Raptors will be without Kawhi Leonard who will be sitting due to a foot injury, and also because the Raptors have a game tomorrow versus the Jazz and Leonard will not play in both games, which is unfortunate because he looked primed for a big night as the Lakers have really struggled defending opposing shooting guards. Even with Leonard out, Toronto is the much better team going 5-0 straight up over their last five meetings. Take Toronto with the small road spread of -3.

*************************

Monday’s Den: Wrapping up an NFL Sunday……

Saints 45, Rams 35— New Orleans had 18 first downs, three TD’s on its first 32 plays in this game; then they blew a 35-14 lead- wild game, but they pulled away late. Saints have won their last seven games; average total in their four home games is 67.3.

Former NFL ref Gene Steratore posted this Sunday morning:

“Through Week 8, the average number of penalties accepted per game is 13.4- that is the fewest since 2013. Despite what most may think, the refs are letting them play this season.”

Vikings 24, Lions 9— Minnesota is now 10-0 vs spread (9-1 SU) in its last nine pre-bye games; they’ve won four of last five games. Yardage in this game was just 283-209, and game was indoors. Under Zimmer, Minnesota is 21-7 as home favorites, 3-2 this year.

Vikings sacked Stafford 10 times; in its last two games, Detroit has run ball for 34-66 yards. Obviously, they’ve got some issues on the offensive line.

Chiefs 37, Browns 21— Cleveland looked better on offense with Kitchens calling plays, but Kansas City has it rolling right now- KC averaged 10.6 yards/pass attempt, had an 11-yard edge in field position. Chiefs had a 499-388 edge in yardage.

Chiefs won/covered 8 of their last 9 games; they’re 10-3 in last 13 games as road favorites. Cleveland is 6-16-1 in its last 23 games as a home dog; they lost last four games, giving up an average of 33.5 ppg.

Steelers 23, Ravens 16— One of key plays in this game was a 22-yard pass by backup QB Dobbs to Smith-Schuster when Steelers were backed up on own 5-yard line with 20-13 lead and 12:35 left to play- drive ended in a clinching FG. It was Dobbs’ only play of the game. This was just second win for Steelers in their last six visits here.

Pittsburgh converted 10-16 on third down, outgained Baltimore 395-268 in a game with no turnovers. Ravens lost their last three games, are 4-5 heading into their bye week.

Panthers 42, Buccaneers 28— Three of Carolina’s six TD’s came on drives of 42 or fewer yards; Panthers ran ball for 179 yards, are looking strong- they’re a game behind New Orleans in NFC South- teams have two meetings coming up.

In their last six games, Bucs are an astounding minus-17 in turnovers. Over is 7-1 in Tampa Bay games; hard to believe the Bucs won’t be cleaning house again when this season ends- they allowed 30+ points in five of their last six games.

Dolphins 13, Jets 6— This was an unusual boxscore:
— Jets’ offense ran 64 plays; they were outscored on those 7-6 by Miami’s defense.
— Neither team scored an offensive touchdown.
— Total yardage was 282-168, Jets- Miami had only 7 first downs.
— Teams combined to convert only five of 29 third down plays.
— There was only one play the whole game inside either team’s red zone.
— Not many team go +4 in turnovers and score only 13 points.

Bears 41, Bills 9— This was an even more unusual boxscore:
— Chicago led 28-0 at the half; their defense scored two of the TD’s.
— The other two first half TD’s came on drives of only 37-23 yards.
— Total yardage was 264-190 Bills, and they lost by 32 points.
— Bills turned ball over four times (-3); Bears had 18-yard edge in field position, and thats not counting their two defensive TD’s.
— What Buffalo has done this year is just astoundingly bad; they made the playoffs LY for first time in 19 years, but quickly traded LY’s QB and are now the worst team in the NFL.
— New England’s three AFC East rivals scored a total of 28 points Sunday.

Falcons 38, Redskins 14— Atlanta was 10-13 on third down in this game; they’ve converted 42 of last 68 third down plays- this was their first win in three outdoor games this season.

NFC East teams are 1-8 vs spread as non-divisional favorites this season. Washington leads that division with an unimpressive 5-3 record.

Texans 19, Broncos 17— Houston is first team since the 1970 New York Giants to start a season 0-3, then win their next six games. Broncos missed a 51-yard FG wide right in the last minute.

Denver lost six of its last seven games, appears headed to its first consecutive losing seasons since the mid-70’s- they’re 2-5-2 in last nine games as home favorites. Under is 4-1 in last five Houston games, 6-2 in last eight Denver games.

Chargers 25, Seahawks 17— Seattle is now 1-8 vs spread in last nine games as home favorites. Chargers won their last five games overall- they won here despite converting on only 2-9 third down plays, and missing three of four PAT’s. Bolts are now 4-0 outside Los Angeles.
