**********

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

13) Texans 23, Bucs 20:
— Houston clinches the AFC South with this win.
— Texans’ first TD scored on a pick-6.
— Houston had three FG’s, only one TD on four drives to red zone.

— Bucs’ first five possessions: three INT’s, a FG and a blocked FG.
— Tampa Bay outgained Houston, 435-229.
— If Jameis Winston played for the Rams, I’d have a nervous breakdown.

12) Patriots 24, Bills 17:
— Buffalo lost 16-10/24-17 in its two games vs NE this season.
— Bills are already in playoffs, will likely play winner of AFC South in Wild Card.
— Buffalo was only 2-11 on third down, Patriots 7-14.

— New England clinches AFC East, has game lead over KC for the #2 seed.
— Patriots lost field position by 7 yards, only 3rd time that happened this year.
— NE’s 2nd half possessions: 4 drives, 28 plays, 182 yards, TD, two FG’s.

11) 49ers 34, Rams 31:
— Rams’ first five drives: 209 yards, three TD’s.
— Rams’ last eight drives: 167 yards, one TD/one FG/one pick-6
— Rams are 1-3 this year in games decided by 6 or fewer points.

— Gould kicked a 33-yard FG at the gun for the win.
— 49ers are half-game up on Seattle in NFC West; they play next week.
— This was SF’s 4th game in row decided by 3 or fewer points, or in last 0:10.

10) Colorado 78, Dayton 76 OT— Buffs hit a 3 at the buzzer to win this game, which was a lot like an NCAA tourney game; two good teams on a neutral floor.

Dayton led 19-5 early on, trailed by 8 with 7:51 left. They could meet again in March.

9) St John’s 68, Arizona 67— This game was part of the Al Attles Classic in San Francisco; Attles coached the Warriors when they won the 1974 NBA title, when their best player was Rick Barry, one of the most underrated basketball players ever.

Bill Walton was the TV analyst on this game; he spoke the truth when he talked about how Barry is one of the 10-12 best players ever. He was as good as Larry Bird, but he played before the NBA took off inn popularity and before ESPN began in the early 80’s.

Mike Anderson is doing a nice job in his first year at St John’s; they’re 11-2 after this upset win.

8) Ohio State 71, Kentucky 65— Wildcats are 8-3 vs schedule #310; they were outscored 21-8 on foul line, are shooting 27.8% on arc this year (#323). Meanwhile, John Calipari’s son Brad plays for the Detroit Titans, where he is shooting 45.3% on the arc this year- go figure.

7) College basketball upsets:
— Florida A&M (+13.5) 71, Seattle 57
— St John’s (+11) 68, Arizona 67
— North Dakota (+9) 75, Nebraska 74
— Northwestern State (+7.5) 67, Lamar 61
— Green Bay (+6.5) 85, Northern Illinois 84
— Texas A&M (+6.5) 64, Oregon State 49
— Colorado (+5.5) 78, Dayton 76 OT

6) Villanova 56, Kansas 55— Wildcats hit a 3-pointer with 0:24 left for the win. Kansas is the 5th team to lose this year while ranked #1 in country. Gonzaga becomes the new #1.

5) Baseball stuff:
— White Sox signed P Dallas Keuchel to a 3-year, $55.5M contract.
— Detroit signed 1B CJ Cron, 2B Jonathan Schoop to 1-year, $6.1M contracts. Tigers will be Schoop’s 4th team in four years.

4) Florida State 66, South Florida 60— Seminoles ended game on a 21-3 run; South Florida pretty much imploded down the stretch- they led 57-47 with 6:20 left.

3) Colorado State 111, Tulsa 104, 3OT— Rams blew an 8-point lead with 1:08 left in regulation, then rallied back from down 89-86 with 0:59 left in first OT. Rams were minus-8 in turnovers; they had three guys play 46:00+.

2) One of the reasons a lot of college basketball teams like to play these neutral court games just before Christmas, is that it is legal for them to pay for kids’ trips home from the neutral site to wherever the player lives, os he can have a few days off for Christmas.

1) Good news is that tonight it starts getting dark later every day; its all downhill until spring. Lot of bowl games and college hoop coming up in the next week, as 2019 winds down to its end.
