                            Two Big Ten games featuring a trio of nationally ranked teams highlight Tuesday night’s college basketball betting board.

                            The early start sends the Rutgers Scarlet Knights on the road to College Park to face the No. 9 Maryland Terrapins. Later Tuesday night, the No. 22 Penn State Nittany Lions square off against the No. 16 Michigan State Spartans in East Lansing.

                            Rutgers Scarlet Knights at No. 9 Maryland Terrapins

                            The Scarlet Knights slipped to 7-4 straight-up and 9-2 against the spread in Big Ten play with Saturday’s 69-63 road loss to Michigan as slight two-point underdogs. The total stayed UNDER 132 ½ points in that loss and it has stayed UNDER in eight of their last 11 contests.

I feel like he’s doing the right thing for his career, but we don’t really care. It’s not a distraction at all. I laugh at that type of stuff. A guy that’s on our team that doesn’t want to be on our team, I can’t wait til we find a way to trade him so we can play him and show him what really Memphis is about.”

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

                              Wednesday’s List of 13: Mid-week musings……

                              13) Red Sox-Dodgers-Twins made a 3-team trade Tuesday night.
                              — Boston gets: OF Alex Verdugo, P Brusdar Graterol
                              — Dodgers get: OF Mookie Betts, P David Price.
                              — Twins get: P Kenta Maeda

                              — Red Sox are paying some of Price’s salary over the next three years, maybe as much as half. He is owed $96M over the next three seasons.
                              — Why was Boston so anxious to trade Betts? 27 years old, scored 264 runs, knocked in 160 the last two years.

                              12) Dodgers also traded OF Joc Peterson to the Angels for utility guy Luis Rentifo; there were other prospects exchanged in this deal, not sure which ones.

                              11) There was also a 4-team, 12-player trade in the NBA that is way too complicated to try and analyze here. Timberwolves pretty much cleaned house, trading five players, getting four back, plus a first round draft pick.

                              10) Houston Astros hired James Click as their new GM; he used to be the Rays’ VP of baseball operations. 42-year-old Click has spent the last 14 years with the Rays, including the last three as a high-ranking member of the baseball operations staff.

                              New GM’s of the Red Sox, Astros both worked for Tampa Bay last season.

                              9) This gambler had a bad day at MGM Grand in Las Vegas Sunday:
                              — $50K on over 10.5, 1st quarter- L
                              — $500K on 49ers 1st half (pick)- T
                              — $550K on 49ers, +1.5- L
                              — $500K on over 26.5 1st half- L
                              — $330K on over 53.5- L
                              — $220K more over over 53.5- L
                              — $285K on 49ers 2nd half (pick)- L

                              Guy lost almost $2M Sunday. Thats million, with an M.

                              8) Chiefs’ playoff run:
                              — First round: Had bye after Patriots (-17) lost in Week 17
                              — Second round: W51-31. Trailed 24-0 with 11:00 left in half.
                              — AFC title game: W35-24. Trailed 17-7 wth 5:00 left in half.
                              — Super Bowl: W31-20. Trailed 20-10 with 7:00 left in game.

                              Quite a run. Lot of drama.

                              7) Reigning champs in the four major sports:
                              — Chiefs, NFL— Won first title in 50 years.
                              — Nationals, MLB— Won first title ever in October.
                              — Raptors, NBA— Won first title ever last spring.
                              — Blues, NHL— Won first title ever last spring.

                              6) Tuesday night upsets:
                              — Tennessee (+6) 69, Alabama 68
                              — Penn State (+5.5) 75, Michigan State 70
                              — Northern Illinois (+5.5) 66, Toledo 61
                              — Western Michigan (+5.5) 64, Miami 60
                              — Ball State (+4) 62, Kent State 54
                              — Eastern Michigan (+4) 66, Buffalo 62

                              5) College football stuff:
                              — Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio steps down the day before the second Signing Day, which is more than a little weird.
                              — KJ Costello bolts from Stanford to Mississippi State, because all QB’s want to play for Mike Leach.
                              — Former Clemson QB Chase Brice is jumping to ACC rival Duke.

                              4) 76ers lost 10 of their last 12 road games (1-10-1 ATS); how can a team with this much talent do so poorly on the road?

                              3) Lefty P Marco Gonzales gets four years, $30M to stay with the Mariners.

                              2) ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla was highly critical of Kansas State G Cartier Diarra during Monday night’s home loss to Baylor, questioning his commitment to the team after he got a technical foul in the first half. You don’t hear a lot of that on network TV broadcasts.

                              1) If you love football, XFL starts Saturday; there will be four games each week for ten weeks, with eight teams playing in the league’s first season.

                                David Schwab

                                FOX Sports 1 presents a pair of big betting showdowns in the Big East this Wednesday night in college basketball.

                                The early start in Indianapolis sends the No. 10 Villanova Wildcats on the road against the No. 19 Butler Bulldogs. The doubleheader wraps things up with the No. 12 Seton Hall Pirates on the road against the Georgetown Hoyas.

                                No. 10 Villanova Wildcats at Butler Bulldogs
                                (FOX Sports 1, 7 p.m. ET)

                                Opening Odds: Butler -2.5, Total 130


                                Betting Matchup

                                Villanova’s straight-up seven-game winning streak came to an end on Saturday with a stunning 76-61 loss to Creighton as a 6 ½-point home favorite. Part of that winning streak included a 76-61 home victory against Butler on Jan. 21 as a 3 ½-point favorite. They are now 17-4 straight-up with an even 10-10-1 record against the spread. This includes a 7-2 SU (6-3 ATS) record in Big East play. The total has stayed UNDER in four of the Wildcats’ last five games. Guard Collin Gillespie and forward Saddiq Bey are each averaging 15 points per game.

                                The 17-5 Bulldogs have just two SU wins in their last six games as part of a 5-4 record in conference play. They have failed to cover ATS in five of those six games to fall to 12-9-1 ATS. The total stayed UNDER in their last two games after going OVER in their previous five contests. Kamar Baldwin leads the team in scoring with 16.0 PPG. The senior guard scored 21 points in the previous game against Villanova. Butler is averaging 69.0 points a game with a points-allowed average of 59.9 that is ranked eighth in the nation.

                                -- The Wildcats have won their last three road games both SU and ATS but they are 4-6 SU and 3-7 ATS over their last 10 road games. The total has stayed UNDER in eight of those last 10 games.

                                -- The Bulldogs are 8-2 SU in their last 10 games at home with an even 5-5 record ATS. The total has stayed UNDER in four of their last six home games.

                                -- Villanova is now 7-3 SU and 6-4 ATS in its last 10 games against Butler with that earlier win. The total has gone OVER in six of the last seven meetings.


                                No. 12 Seton Hall Pirates at Georgetown Hoyas
                                (FOX Sports 1, 8:30 p.m. ET)

                                Opening Odds: Seton Hall -1.5, Total 147

                                The Pirates’ extended 10-game SU winning streak came to an end with Saturday’s 74-62 home loss to Xavier as 8 ½-point favorites. This was their first SU loss in Big East play this season and they have now failed to cover in their last four games. Seton Hall is 16-5 SU with a 13-7-1 record ATS.
