Armadillo:Sunday's six-pack

— North Dakota State (Carson Wentz’s alma mater) won its 7th I-AA football title in the last eight years.

— Bronx signed reliever Zach Britton to a three-year, $39M deal

— Tampa Bay Rays are going to shut down their upper deck, reduce seating capacity to around 25,500; will the Rays be heading to Montreal soon?

— Blazers 110, Rockets 101— Harden scored 38 points, but it wasn’t enough.

— Warriors 127, Kings 123— Curry scored 42; Golden St was down 7 after third quarter.

— ESPN’s Seth Greenberg called Michigan St’s Cassius Winston the best passer in country.


**********

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

13) Colts 21, Texans 7— Indy was 9-14 on third down, Houston was 3-13. Colts scored TD’s on three of first four four drives, going 70-75-65 yards for scores. 76 of Texans’ 105 rushing yards were gained by QB Watson, who completed only 29-49 passes- not his best effort.

Mack ran ball for 148 yards; Houston hadn’t allowed a 100-yard rusher all season. Colts head to Arrowhead next weekend; winner of Charger-Raven game will visit Foxboro.

12) Cowboys 24, Seahawks 22— Dallas ran ball for 164 yards, ran 16 more plays than Seattle, held Seahawks to 11 first downs. Elliott ran for 137 yards; giving him last week off looks like a really good idea now.

Dallas heads to New Orleans if the Bears win Sunday; they head to Los Angeles if the Eagles pull the upset in Chicago.

11) San Francisco 49ers had a lot of injuries the last two years; scapegoat for those injuries is strength coach Ray Wright, who was fired this week. Wright had been with coach Kyle Shanahan in both Houston/Washington, so doubtful it was Shanahan who made this decision.

10) In last few years, I wonder how many times Kansas/Kentucky both lost on the same day? Jayhawks lost at Iowa State, Wildcats lost at Alabama. Go figure.

Western Kentucky was leading Old Dominion 21-0 Saturday, but lost 69-66.

9) New Mexico 85, Nevada 58— Wolf Pack was #6 in country, then went to Albuquerque and got eviscerated by a New Mexico squad that had lost to Penn and North Texas.

8) St John’s 97, Georgetown 94 OT— Hoyas play lot of high-scoring games; St John’s had lost 13 straight games at Georgetown, but pulled this game out on Lou Carnesecca’s 94th birthday.

7) Upsets of the Day:
— Portland State (+16.5) 77, Montana 74 OT
— East Carolina (+15) 73, Cincinnati 71
— New Mexico (+14.5) 85, Nevada 58
— Southern Utah (+13.5) 90, Weber State 82 OT
— South Carolina (+13) 71, Florida 69
— Northern Arizona (+9.5) 81, Idaho State 69
— LaSalle (+8.5) 69, UMass 60
— Rice (+7.5) 78, Louisiana Tech 66
— Youngstown State (+7.5) 76, Milwaukee 51
— Western Carolina (+7.5) 76, Samford 69

6) Quite a night in the Big Sky Conference; underdogs went 4-1 vs spread, three of the five games went OT, and three underdogs of 9.5+ points won SU. Competitive league.

5) Odd fact of the day; There are ten players who won a Super Bowl ring and also played on a Grey Cup champ in the CFL. One guy won both and also won a title in the XFL’s only year of existence— Bobby Singh.

4) Miami Dolphins were 7-1 this season in games decided by 8 or fewer points; they were 0-8 in games decided by more than eight points.

3) Dallas (9-3), Steelers (6-5-1) and Giants (4-8) played most games decided by one score; New England (3-2) played the fewest.

2) Former Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury is the new OC at USC, but Trojans are blocking him from interviewing for NFL jobs, so there rumors that he may quit so he can do the interviews.

1) A gambler at the Hollywood Charlestown sportsbook in West Virginia played $5 on a 15-team parlay last week, and when all 15 teams he picked beat the spread, the guy won $100,000, not a bad weekend. It is really, really hard to go 15-0 in one day.

Wiggins, Towns help T'Wolves rout Lakers
January 6, 2019
By The Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Andrew Wiggins scored 25 of his 28 points in the first half, helping the Minnesota Timberwolves take charge from the opening tipoff and breeze by the LeBron James-less Los Angeles Lakers for a 108-86 victory on Sunday, the last game for coach Tom Thibodeau.

Thibodeau was fired about an hour after the Timberwolves raised their home record to 8-2 against Western Conference foes, according to a person with knowledge of the decision. Though the timing of the dismissal after a decisive win was unusual, Thibodeau's third season with the team started with turmoil surrounding the discontent of All-Star Jimmy Butler.

Karl-Anthony Towns had 28 points, 18 rebounds and four blocks, and Jeff Teague scored all of his 15 points in the first half and finished with 11 assists. Minnesotra is 15-12 since trading Butler.

Lance Stephenson had 14 points for the Lakers. They fell to 1-5 without James since he strained his groin during the Christmas Day win at Golden State.

RAPTORS 121, PACERS 105

TORONTO (AP) - Norman Powell scored a season-high 23 points, Pascal Siakam had 12 points and 10 rebounds, and Toronto snapped Indiana's six-game winning streak.

Serge Ibaka scored 18 points, and Kyle Lowry had 12 points and eight assists after missing the previous six games because of a sore lower back. Kawhi Leonard sat out to rest.

Bojan Bogdanovic scored 21 points for Indiana, and Domantas Sabonis had 16 points and 11 rebounds.

WIZARDS 116, THUNDER 98

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Bradley Beal scored 25 points to help Washington beat Oklahoma City.

Otto Porter had 20 points, six rebounds and five assists, Jeff Green scored 16 points and Tomas Satoransky added 15 for the Wizards.

Russell Westbrook had 22 points, 15 rebounds and 13 assists for his 12th triple-double of the season and the 116th of his career. Paul George scored 20 points, and Jerami Grant added 17 for the Thunder. The had won three in a row.

NETS 117, BULLS 100

CHICAGO (AP) - D'Angelo Russell scored 28 points, DeMarre Carroll had 20 and Brooklyn beat Chicago for its third straight victory.

Jarrett Allen added 19 points and six rebounds to help the Nets improve to 12-3 in their last 15 games, matching their best 15-game stretch since moving to Brooklyn in 2012.

Zach LaVine had 27 points for Chicago, and Bobby Portis scored 17 in 20 minutes off the bench after missing seven games with a sprained right ankle.

CLIPPERS 106, MAGIC 96

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Tobias Harris scored 28 points and Los Angeles overcame a slow start to beat Orlando.

Lou Williams added 17 points, and Danilo Gallinari and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander each had 13. The Clippers have won 11 consecutive games against the Magic, a streak that goes back to the 2013-14 season.

Nikola Vucevic had 16 points and 24 rebounds for Orlando.

HAWKS 106, HEAT 82

ATLANTA (AP) - Trae Young scored 19 points, John Collins had 13 points and 13 rebounds, and Atlanta beat Miami to snap a three-game skid.

Young received a big compliment when the game ended, as 12-time All-Star Dwyane Wade, who is retiring after the season, took his jersey off at halfcourt and made a swap with the Atlanta rookie.

Derrick Jones Jr. led Miami with 14 points.

HORNETS 119, SUNS 113

PHOENIX (AP) - Kemba Walker scored 18 of his 29 points in the final 4 1/2 minutes - including a halfcourt heave when he was trying to run out the clock - and Charlotte handed Phoenix its sixth straight loss.

Tony Parker added 20 points, and Willy Hernangomez and Marvin Williams 16 for the Hornets.

T.J. Warren had 23 points, Josh Jackson 22 and Deandre Ayton 19 for Phoenix. Devin Booker left the game with back spasms in the second quarter and did not return.

Armadillo: Monday's six-pack

Top six teams in country defensive eFG%

1) Texas Tech, vs schedule #304

2) Houston, vs schedule #295

3) Virginia, vs schedule #200

4) VCU, vs schedule #59

5) Duke, vs schedule #30

6) Utah State, vs schedule #121


**********

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

13) Chargers 23, Ravens 17— Baltimore’s offense was totally inept for three quarters, then Lamar Jackson came alive in 4th quarter; after being down 23-3, Ravens had ball in last 2:00 with shot at a miraculous comeback, but Jackson fumbled ball away and the Chargers advance.

Same referee worked the Ravens-Chargers game in LA two weeks ago; end of 3rd quarter and beginning of 4th were dominated by the replay official, who had couple of tough calls to make and didn’t necessarily get them right.

12) Chargers are 9-0 this season outside of LA; they go to Foxboro next Sunday, their third straight week on the road.

11) Eagles 16, Bears 15— Chicago missed a 43-yard FG with 0:05 left; ball clanked off the left upright, then hit the crossbar and bounced back, as the defending champs posted an upset win.

Eagles trailed 15-10 but drove 80 yards in 12-plays, scoring winning TD on a 4th-down pass with 0:56 left. Nick Foles may soon be called Mr January.

Eagles visit New Orleans next Sunday; Dallas plays the Rams in LA Saturday night.

10) Foles’ restructured contract pays him $500k for playing 33% of snaps in a playoff game and another $500k if the Eagles win that game, so he banked $1M Sunday night.

9) Kansas Jayhawks’ star Udoka Azubuike is out for the season with a torn ligament in his right hand, very bad news for the Jayhwawks’ national title hopes.

8) Minnesota Timberwolves fired coach/GM Tom Thibodeau Sunday, after the Timberwolves beat the Lebron-less Lakers; not sure how teams in smaller NBA markets are supposed to win- they traded their best player to Philly, then fired their coach a few weeks later. What coach are they hiring to turn things around?

7) Early lines on next week’s NFL games:
— Kansas City -5.5 (56.5) vs Indianapolis
— Rams -7 (49.5) vs Dallas
— New England -4.5 (47.5) vs LA Chargers
— New Orleans -9 (51) vs Philadelphia

6) Houston 90, Memphis 77— Kelvin Sampson’s Cougars are 15-0, best team in the AAC.

5) Temple 85, Wichita State 81 OT— Owls scored last 11 points of regulation, then won game in OT. Third straight loss for a young Wichita team, tough one to bounce back from- they led by 13 at the half.

4) Xander Schauffele shot a final round 62, won the Tournament of Champions in Kapalua Sunday, by a shot over Gary Woodland, in the first PGA Tour event of 2019.

3) Quote of the Day, part 2, from Lakers’ coach Luke Walton; he is talking about Lonzo Ball and Brandon Ingram:

“They’re trying, but they’re young. At some point, we need more passion. We need more fight. And that’s not scoring more. That’s more diving for loose balls, communicating loudly, grabbing [rebounds].

“Brandon had some really nice crack-back rebounds tonight that we can get out and run [from]. We need that all the time from him. So, it’s not just them, but until we get healthy again, you got to play in this league with some passion and fire. It’s hard to win in this league when you are healthy. So you need to double that effort when guys are down.”

2) Cleveland Cavaliers signed G Patrick McCaw to a two-year, $6M deal; his old team (Golden State) didn’t match the deal, but then Cleveland waived McCaw Sunday, after only three games, apparently hoping to sign him for a much lower salary later on. Had they just offered him the lower salary right away, the Warriors would’ve been more likely to have matched the offer.

1) Right now, looks like the Oakland Raiders will have the 4th, 24th and 27th picks in April’s draft, which takes place in Nashville. Raiders have Bears’/Cowboys’ first round picks in that draft, as result of trading Kahlil Mack and Amari Cooper.
