Study group: Tuesday’s Top 25 NCB betting notes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wisconsin at (11) Ohio State (-6)

The Badgers started 4-0 in conference play and then lost back-to-back games before edging Minnesota 45-44 on Saturday. Tough defense is a Wisconsin program staple and the Badgers have held consecutive opponents under 50 points for the first time since the 2009-10 campaign. Wisconsin held Michigan State to a season-low 49 points and then limited Minnesota to its season-worst output. The Buckeyes have won back-to-back outings and are 11-1 at home. The Badgers are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games.

(19) N.C. State at Virginia (-2)

In its win over North Carolina last weekend, North Carolina State often found little resistance and seemingly scored at will. Points figure to be a bit more at a premium when the high-flying Wolfpack hit the road in an attempt to solve one of the nation’s top defenses in Virginia. North Carolina State – the sixth-highest scoring team in the country – will likely be forced to play a much slower pace against the Cavaliers, who own the nation’s second-best scoring defense and are 12-1 at home this season. Virginia has held 16 opponents – including all six ACC foes – to less than 60 points and allowed no more than 64 points in any game. The Wolfpack are 1-6 ATS in their last seven meetings.

Indiana State at (14) Wichita State (-12.5)

Wichita State is 12-0 at home this season with nine of the victories coming by double digits. The Shockers suffered a blow when sophomore guard Evan Wessel recently underwent season-ending hand surgery. Freshman guard Ron Baker (foot) is also sidelined but the Shockers recently got back senior forward Carl Hall from a thumb injury that sidelined him seven games. The Sycamores have won three of four games, including a 59-58 victory over Northern Iowa on Saturday when Jake Odum hit two free throws with 0.3 seconds remaining. Indiana State is 6-1 ATS in its last seven road games.

Kentucky at (16) Mississippi (-1.5)

Mississippi will put the SEC’s longest current winning streak on the line when the Rebels host Kentucky. Ole Miss is 6-0 in conference play for the first time in school history with nine straight wins overall. The Rebels enter the week as the nation’s fifth-highest scoring team (80.3) but are a combined 23-for-50 from the free-throw line in the last two games. Kentucky has a pair of 6-10 forwards in Kyle Wiltjer and Nerlens Noel, but will likely be without 7-foot freshman Willie Cauley-Stein, who missed the last three games with a knee injury. Noel has been playing especially well lately, earning SEC Freshman of the Week honors the last two weeks. The Wildcats are 1-5 ATS in their last six games overall.

Nebraska at (24) Minnesota (-20)

After a 15-1 start made the Golden Gophers a trendy pick to contend for the Big Ten title, a four-game losing streak has put Minnesota below .500 in the conference. Coach Tubby Smith was thought to have assembled one of the conference's premier offenses, but consecutive 48- and 44-point performances make that seem like a distant era. The Cornhuskers have won two of their last three Big Ten contests. But playing ranked opponents on the road has been unkind to Nebraska as its lost to Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State away from home - all by double digits. Nebraska is 4-1 ATS in its last five games versus a team with a winning record.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Study group: Wednesday’s Top 25 NCB betting notes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Northwestern at (2) Michigan (-18.5)

The Wolverines are off to the best start in program history after their win over Illinois Sunday, but the game against the Wildcats could be a trap as a matchup at No. 3 Indiana looms Saturday. Northwestern has beaten a couple ranked opponents in Minnesota and Illinois, but lost to Nebraska and Iowa. The Wildcats need to be more consistent, as they haven't won back-to-back games since late November. Northwestern won’t get any easy buckets as Michigan fouls less than any other team in the country at 11.9 per game. The Wolverines are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 Wednesday games.

Rutgers at (23) Cincinnati (-12)

Following an eight-day layoff, the Bearcats look to sweep the season series with visiting Rutgers. Cincinnati (16-4, 4-3) was riding a three-game winning streak and led by seven late in the second half before falling 57-55 at then-No. 3 Syracuse on Jan. 21. Cincinnati has won six of seven versus Rutgers, including the last two meetings at home by a combined 28 points. The Bearcats are 0-5 ATS in their last five home games.

Texas at (21) Kansas State (-8.5)

Kansas State dropped eight spots in the USA Today coaches’ poll after losing last week to then-No. 2 Kansas and Iowa State. The Wildcats struggled on the interior during the two losses, allowing a combined 23 offensive rebounds. The Longhorns will be without their top rebounder, Jonathan Holmes, who broke his right hand last week against Oklahoma. Texas is shooting 40.9 percent from the field, which ranks 279th in the nation. The Longhorns are 6-1 ATS in their last seven against opponents that boast a winning percentage above .600.

South Carolina at (4) Florida (-24)

Florida will try to win its ninth straight game for the first time since 2008-09 when the Gators host South Carolina. The Gators, who are 8-0 at home, have played suffocating defense, holding 10 opponents under 50 points and 14 under 60 points. Florida is ranked third in the country in points allowed (51.2). South Carolina has lost four of its last six games but is coming off a 75-54 home win against Arkansas on Saturday. The 21-point victory was the Gamecocks’ largest in SEC play since an 18-point win over Kentucky on Feb. 25, 2009. South Carolina is 4-0 ATS in its last four road games.

(18) Missouri at LSU (+4)

Missouri has recovered from a blowout loss at Florida to win two consecutive SEC contests, and the Tigers look to extend their winning ways when they travel to LSU on Wednesday. Missouri has yet to win a conference road game, but the team is playing better, coming off an 81-59 blowout of Vanderbilt on Saturday. LSU dropped its first four SEC games, but has shown signs of improvement in splitting its past two contests. The matchup features two of the top rebounding teams in the land: Missouri is second at 42.6, while LSU ranks 30th at 39.0. Missouri holds a decisive advantage should the game come down to free throws. Missouri leads the SEC in shooting from the line (73.6 percent), while LSU ranks 13th at 61.1 percent. LSU is 1-4 ATS in its last five home games.

(5) Duke at Wake Forest (+12)

The Blue Devils will attempt to capture their first true road win of the season on Wednesday as they pursue a regular-season sweep of Wake Forest. Although Duke tested itself with six neutral-site games during its non-conference schedule, it didn’t have to face a truly hostile crowd until Jan. 12 when it lost to North Carolina State. Two games later, Miami (Fla.) manhandled the Blue Devils on the road. Duke got back on track in Saturday’s 84-64 home victory against Maryland and will face a Demon Deacon team that is 3-0 at home in ACC play but coming off an embarrassing 82-62 road loss at Georgia Tech. Wake Forest is 5-0 ATS in its last five home games.

Missouri State at (17) Creighton (-21.5)

Creighton plays its first home game in 15 days when its hosts a young Missouri State squad that started four freshmen in its last outing. Missouri State has won six of the last eight meetings with Creighton including two in a row in Omaha. But Creighton won the first matchup between the two schools this season on Jan. 11, 74-52. The Bluejays lead the nation in field goal percentage (51.9), 3-point percentage (44.8) and is third in 3-pointers made per game (9.5). The Bears are 4-0 ATS in their last four road games.

(3) Indiana at Purdue (+8)

The Hoosiers host the Wolverines on Sunday, but coach Tom Crean's team can't afford to look past the Boilermakers. Purdue has won three straight at home and four of five overall, and the Mackey Arena crowd will certainly be at full pitch for the rival Hoosiers. Indiana is going to want to get out and running, using its multiple scoring options to get to its 83.3-ppg average. Problem is, doing that against Purdue isn't going to be easy, as the Boilermakers are holding teams to 33.6 percent shooting over their last five games. The Hoosiers are 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall.

(15) Miami at Virginia Tech (+10)

Miami (Fla.) could not have been much better last week, pounding Duke and Florida State by a combined 51 points. The 15th-ranked Hurricanes look to avoid a letdown and extend their seven-game win streak at Virginia Tech. The Hurricanes have been outstanding defensively, allowing an average of 58.1 points and 36.6 shooting from the field. They will get a test against Virginia Tech guard Erick Green, who leads the nation in scoring. Despite Green’s consistency on the offensive end, the Hokies have dropped six of their last eight games and they stand last in the ACC in scoring defense. Miami is 5-1 ATS in its last six road games.

(22) New Mexico at Wyoming (+1)

Mountain West leader New Mexico looks to bounce back from its first conference loss of the season in the high altitude of Laramie (7,200 feet) against a Wyoming squad that has dropped two in a row. The Lobos have won nine of the last 11 meetings with the Cowboys and swept the series last year with a pair of 10-point wins. Wyoming is playing its third ranked team this season and has won both of its previous meetings against ranked squads, a 76-69 victory over then-No. 19 Colorado on Dec. 1, and a 58-45 win over No. 14 San Diego State on Jan. 19. Both of those games also were played in Laramie. The Lobos are 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall.

(12) Oregon at Stanford (-2.5)

After recording its highest point total and largest margin of victory this season in an 87-56 victory over Utah on Sunday, Stanford looks to carry that momentum into a key matchup with Oregon. The first-place Ducks remained unbeaten in the Pac-12 with an 81-76 victory over visiting Washington on Saturday. Oregon is 7-0 in conference play for the first time since the 1925-26 season. This game features one of the best shooting teams in the conference in Oregon and the Pac-12’s worst shooting team in Stanford. The Ducks are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 road games.

VI Top 25 Ranking


College Basketball Rankings

Current Last Week School Betting Notes (SU Record, ATS Record)

1 1 Michigan (19-1 SU, 12-6 ATS): In a season where everyone has tasted defeat, the Wolverines enter February having come closest to remaining perfect. This will mark the second week in a row as No. 1 on the VI list, so it's nice that the AP caught up. The Coaches/SIDs poll still needs to get with the program.

2 2 Indiana (18-2 SU, 9-9 ATS): It's strange that Tom Crean continues to utilize top free-throw shooter Christian Watford as his inbounds passer in situations where his team is sure to be fouled. He rarely gets the ball back, taking an 82 percent shooter out of the mix in situations where you're trying to put the game away.

3 4 Kansas (19-1 SU, 9-10 ATS): If Thomas Robinson had returned for his senior season, this would be the elite team in college basketball. Because he did, there's a hole that Kevin Young, Perry Ellis and Jamari Traylor can't realistically fill, leaving the Jayhawks vulnerable.

4 8 Florida (16-2 SU, 11-4 ATS): Things aren't going to be this easy in the SEC all season, but those who have the Gators running the table may wind up being proven right. The only game where there is even a chance Billy Donovan's team won't be favored is the regular season finale -- at Kentucky.

5 10 Oregon (18-2 SU, 9-9 ATS): The Ducks have struggled mightily to close out games, a reminder that they're still fairly inexperienced. It's on Dana Altman to cultivate lineups who won't surrender massive leads due to late-game turnovers or poor free-throw shooting. It hasn't cost them yet, but it will if not improved.

6 5 Arizona (17-2 SU, 9-8 ATS): After not playing for all of January, freshman guard Gabe York came off the bench to help stretch the floor in the blowout of Southern Cal and is expected to see more minutes, according to head coach Sean Miller. He was a highly decorated prep shooter who could become an x-factor if he's going to get consistent minutes.

7 6 Syracuse (18-2 SU, 10-6 ATS): Physical center DaJuan Coleman joins gifted forward James Southerland as rotation regulars who won't play for the majority of the Big East season. The goal for February is to remain among the Big East's double-bye group in the hopes they'll be whole come March.

8 7 Louisville (14-2 SU, 9-4 ATS): Chane Behanan and Georgui Dieng both hit clutch free-throws down the stretch to hold off Pitt. Quite frankly, it was shocking, since the struggles of both bigs when getting to the line could be a major Achilles heel unless what they did against the Panthers becomes a habit.

9 14 Miami, FL (15-3 SU, 12-3 ATS): As impressive as squashing FSU after dismantling Duke was, you should expect a special Hurricanes team would maintain a high level against a nemesis. Avoiding a letdown in Blacksburg against Erick Green's Hokies would go the extra mile, especially with N.C. State up just ahead.

10 3 Duke (17-2 SU, 11-8 ATS): The Blue Devils may not face another road game against a team with a winning record in ACC play until visiting Virginia on Feb. 28 and may have Ryan Kelly back by then. Showing great resolve after getting crushed in Coral Gables would be a part of the maturation progress for the guys who haven't been through the wars.

11 11 Butler (17-3 SU, 13-5 ATS): Rotnei Clarke returned from that horrific-looking neck injury looking like he'd never left, knocking down 3-pointers and closing out Temple at the free-throw line. There won't be another shot at LaSalle unless their paths cross in the A-10 Tournament at Barclays, but his absence does place an asterisk on that 54-53 road loss.

12 12 Gonzaga (17-2 SU, 9-7 ATS): The Zags still have to go to Saint Mary's and BYU in West Coast Conference play, so we'll get another chance to see how they handle a road atmosphere against teams who actually have a chance to beat them. They can actually draw confidence from the near-miss at Butler by the time those games roll around, since wounds from the setback won't be as fresh.

13 19 San Diego State (16-4 SU, 9-6 ATS): Putting the clamps on New Mexico offered hard proof the Aztecs can reach their potential, but they've got to go on a run from here on out to start making a run a top-four seed. The potential is there, but outside of a neutral-site win over UNLV, their resume is dotted most by quality losses.

14 9 New Mexico (17-3 SU, 10-8 ATS): The Lobos close the regular season with five of eight on the road, which doesn't bode well for their chances of finishing strong if the offense falls apart the way it has at St. Louis and San Diego State, where they've lost by a combined score of 115-80.

15 20 Ohio State (16-4 SU, 11-6 ATS): Deshaun Thomas is going to need to be the type of lights-out scorer he was against Wisconsin if the Buckeyes are going to seriously contend for the Big Ten title, but still needs a consistent No. 2 scorer to emerge behind him. At this point, Thad Matta still can't be sure where the team's offense is going to come from.

16 21 UNLV (17-4 SU, 8-12 ATS): Mike Moser has been back a few weeks, but doesn't look like himself at all. He's got a month to get back into shape and regain his confidence or Mike Rice will have no choice but to go with someone else given the terrific depth the Rebels field.

17 23 Memphis (17-2 SU, 9-6 ATS): The deepest team in C-USA is certain to compile a gaudy record, but the road is going to get tougher, literally. Starting with the Jan. 30 visit to ECU, the Tigers close with seven of 12 away from FedEx Forum, which includes a non-conference game at Xavier on Feb. 26.

18 15 Michigan State (17-4 SU, 7-10 ATS): How is it that we're not talking about the Spartans underachieving and playing their way on the wrong side of the bubble like we normally are this time of year? They're 5-0 in games decided by three points or less.

19 13 Kansas State (15-4 SU, 6-8 ATS): It's maddening watching how soft the Wildcats' bigs can be while finishing around the basket, rarely collecting themselves to go up strong and finish. Had that segment executed against Kansas and Iowa State, K-State might still be perfect in Big 12 play. Where's Frank Martin when you need him?

20 NR Marquette (15-4 SU, 7-11 ATS): After providing flashes of greatness here and there thus far in his career, Vander Blue is reminding people why some compared him to Dwyane Wade upon signing. That is indeed a stretch, but he shot nearly 47 percent from the field and averaged over 17 points, punctuated by a 30-point outburst against South Florida.

21 18 Creighton (18-3 SU, 13-5 ATS): Jahenns Manigat went 0-for-8 in the losses at Wichita State and Drake, missing all five of his 3-point looks. Rebounding by going 4-for-4 at Southern Illinois, with all his makes from beyond the arc, bodes well for his confidence going forward. He's a glue guy the Bluejays need on the floor, but his value diminishes if he's not knocking down shots.

22 16 Minnesota (16-5 SU, 13-6 ATS): Trevor Mbakwe needs to play with the desperation you would expect a sixth-year guy who lost a season to a torn ACL would in their final college run. Being a beast in the paint makes the difference between good and great for the Gophers.

23 NR Georgetown (14-4 SU, 7-7 ATS): Otto Porter has picked his game up since Greg Whittington was declared academically ineligible, which is yet another reason he should be a frontrunner for Big East Player of the Year alongside standouts on higher-ranked teams.

24 17 Wichita State (19-3 SU, 10-8-1 ATS): Nick Wiggins had hit eight of his last 11 3-pointers entering the home loss to Indiana State and was shooting 51 percent from beyond the arc. What, he still is? Somehow, the Shockers failed to free him up for a single look from 3-point range in a 68-55 loss where they completely bent to the Sycamores' will. Not getting your top sniper any shots in a game where you're starved for offense falls on the coaching staff.

25 NR LaSalle (15-4 SU, 9-8 ATS): Victories over Butler and at VCU set the Explorers up to compete for the A-10 title and cement themselves as a lock for the NCAA Tournament. It will all hinge on howe well they navigate a schedule that doesn't include a rematch against either of the league's two heavyweights, giving them a potential tie-breaker.

Thursday's Tips

January 31, 2013


**Butler at Saint Louis**

--Most books opened Saint Louis (14-5 SU, 8-9 ATS) as a two-point favorite with a total of 122 ½. As of early this morning, SLU was favored by 2.5 and the total was up to 123. Gamblers can take the Bulldogs to win outright for a plus-125 payout (risk $100 to win $125).

--Butler (17-3 straight up, 13-5 against the spread) has won 14 of its last 15 games and has taken the cash six consecutive times out. The Bulldogs are off Saturday’s 83-71 win over Temple as six-point home favorites. After missing three straight games, Rotnei Clarke returned to the lineup and produced 24 points and nine assists. Khyle Marshall and Kellen Dunham added 19 and 17 points, respectively.

--Saint Louis has won 11 of its 13 home games, going 5-6 ATS. The Billikens have been single-digit home favorites twice, winning and covering easily both times in double-digit wins over New Mexico and Valpo.

--Saint Louis returns home in this spot after back-to-back wins on the road. The Billikens won a 67-57 decision Saturday at St. Bonaventure, hooking up their backers as three-point road ‘chalk.’ Dwayne Evans led the way with 18 points and eight rebounds.

--Brad Stevens’s team is led by Clarke, a transfer from Arkansas. Clarke is averaging a team-high 16.4 points per game while knocking down 43.4 percent of his attempts from 3-point land.

--When Butler needs to ice a lead at crunch time, it has two of the nation’s top free-throw shooters. Clarke makes 86.4 percent of his attempts from the charity stripe, while Dunham, a freshman who averages 11.2 PPG, is shooting at a 91.2 percent clip from the free-throw line.

--Butler has been an underdog eight times this season, going 7-1 ATS with six outright victories.

--The ‘under’ is 6-3 overall for Saint Louis, 3-1 in its home games with a total.

--The ‘over’ is 9-5 overall for Butler, but the ‘under’ is 3-1 its last four games.

--Tip-off is slated for 9:00 p.m. Eastern on the CBS Sports Network (613 on DirecTV).

**Arizona at Washington**

--As of early this morning, most spots were listing Arizona (17-2 SU, 9-8 ATS) as a five-point ‘chalk’ with a total of 139 ½. Bettors can take the Huskies on the money line for a plus-205 return (risk $100 to win $205).

--Arizona is tied with Arizona St. for third place in the Pac-12, two games back of conference-leading Oregon. The Wildcats have lost at Oregon and vs. UCLA in league play. They bounced back from last Thursday’s home loss to the Bruins by destroying USC on Saturday, 74-50, as 14-point home ‘chalk.’

--Washington (12-8 SU, 10-8 ATS) is in serious danger of missing the NCAA Tournament for a second straight season. The Huskies, with their RPI of 70, can give their resume a big boost if they can upset Arizona (#4 in RPI) tonight. They are 1-4 against RPI Top 50 teams but do have four quality wins over teams ranked 50-100 in the RPI (vs. Seton Hall, vs. Saint Louis, at California and at Stanford).

--Lorenzo Romar’s squad has lost three in a row but had won four straight prior to this three-game slide. The Huskies are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games. They have won seven of 11 home games this year, posting a 4-5 spread record. They have not been home underdogs this year until tonight.

--UW is led by junior guard C.J. Wilcox, who is averaging a team-high 19.0 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. Wilcox is an excellent perimeter shooter, making 41.9 percent of his attempts from 3-point land.

--Arizona has been a road favorite five times this year, compiling a 3-2 spread record. The Wildcats are fourth in the RPI thanks to five Top 38 scalps over the likes of Florida, So. Miss, Miami, Colorado and San Diego St.

--The ‘under’ is 10-3-1 overall for Arizona, 4-1 in its five true road assignments.

--The ‘under’ is 5-4 overall for UW, 1-1 in its two home games with a total.

--ESPN will have the telecast at 9:00 p.m. Eastern.

**B.E.’s Bonus Nuggets**

--Florida has covered the spread in eight consecutive games after blasting South Carolina by a 75-36 count as a 23 ½-point home favorite last night at The O-Dome in Gainesville. The Gators have won nine in a row and are 7-0 in SEC play with each victory coming by 17 points or more. Kenny Boynton and Mike Rosario scored 15 points apiece for UF, which raced out to a 33-10 halftime lead over the Gamecocks. Billy Donovan’s team will host Ole Miss on Saturday. The Rebels are one game back of UF in the SEC standings with their first league loss coming Tuesday vs. Kentucky.

--USC poked a big hole in UCLA’s resume last night, beating its arch rival 75-71 in overtime as a 10-point road underdog. Aaron Fuller and Jio Fontan paced the Trojans with 15 points apiece.

--Iowa is a 14 ½-point home favorite over Penn St. tonight. ESPNU will have television coverage at 8:00 p.m. Eastern.

--Alabama and Arkansas both own 12-7 records and will meet tonight at Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa. Most spots have the Tide favored by six. Tip-off is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. Eastern on ESPN2.

--In the late game on ESPN2 at 11:00 p.m. Eastern, Gonzaga will take on Loyola-Marymount as a 16 ½-point road favorite. The Lions have lost four in a row both SU and ATS and own an abysmal 1-6 straight-up record in WCC play. They have been home underdogs twice, however, going 2-0 ATS with an outright win over Santa Clara and a 73-70 loss to Ole Miss as 10-point home ‘dogs.

--Gonzaga has won five in a row over LMU, going 4-1 ATS. The ‘under’ has cashed in six straight head-to-head meetings between these WCC rivals.

--Gonzaga owns a 5-5-1 spread record in 11 spots as a double-digit ‘chalk’ this year.

--Western Kentucky will most likely be without one of its best players tonight vs. Troy. Jamal Crook, who averages 14.5 PPG, is 'doubtful' against the Trojans due to a foot injury. The Hilltoppers are 11-point home favorites.
