Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

-- Indiana Pacers beat Miami, their 11th win in last fourteen games.

-- Lakers are 15-19 after losing 125-112 to the 21-14 Rockets in Houston

-- Missouri State is 0-10 vs D-I teams in non-league play, but they're 3-1 in MVC games after upsetting Illinois State 62-55.

-- Pitt crushed Georgetown 73-45 in Washington; John Thompson III got his first technical foul in six years.

-- Robert Griffin III will have surgery on his LCL; no word on whether his ACL also needs fixing. I'm thinking Redskins will be getting FieldTurf soon.

-- Cowboys fired defensive coordinator Rob Ryan; they should fire their GM, but since that person is also the owner, it ain't happening.

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud......

13) Thanks to reader Paul T for clueing me in on why the Bills parted ways with Marshawn Lynch a few years back; had very little to do with football, more off-the-field stuff. Bills did what they had to do at the time; fortunately for Lynch, he seems to have fixed his life, so good for him.

12) 41,000 families in New Jersey are still displaced because of Hurricane Sandy; I don’t want to get into politics, but it would be encouraging to see our country spend as much money helping out our own citizens as they do with these other countries halfway around the world.

11) Adam LaRoche gets two years, $24M to stay with Washington, which begs the question, whats up with Mike Napoli and the Red Sox? If Boston doesn’t sign him, who’s going to play 1B in Beantown?

10) “Enjoy it, if you can.” ESPN’s Tom Rinaldi actually said that to Nick Saban after Alabama won their game Monday night.

I felt bad when he said it, because Saban has worked so hard and so many people have gotten a ton of enjoyment out of his success, but if he himself can’t enjoy it, that’s pretty sad. Hopefully after National Signing Day in four weeks, he can get a little vacation have some fun before spring ball starts.

9) “I just put them on the coffee table for the recruits to look at.” Saban, when asked what he does with his four national championship rings.

8) Greedy bastard update: somehow, the price of gas went up four cents a gallon since Christmas. A mile west of my house, it is $3.73 a gallon for self-serve. A mile east of my house, it is $3.54 and they pump the gas for you. That’s not a hard decision at all.

7) Over last four years, Washington Huskies’ basketball team played fast-pace ball, ranking #7-10-23-30 in country in tempo, but this year, they’re down to #177 pace, average speed. That’s what happens when your guards aren’t as good as they used to be.

6) Florida State finished in the top 10 in the final college football poll, which nets coach Jimbo Fisher a $50,000 bonus; it pays to be nice to the writers who vote for such things.

5) If you invest in the NBA, know that the Knicks are 1-6 vs spread as a home favorite of 7+ points, but 7-1 when laying less than 7 points.

Washington Wizards are 5-0-1 as a home underdog of 5+ points, 2-5-1 if they’re getting less than 5 at home.

4) New England Patriots scored 76 more points (4.75 per game) than any other NFL team; that’s a lot.

3) 2013 is the first year since 1987 where the four numbers in the year are all different.

2) Congrats to San Jose State for finishing in the top 25 in final college football poll for the first time ever; it cost them their coach, but he laid a foundation for success that hopefully they can continue.

1) Some people in Canada are not happy about the NHL lockout and are proposing a strike for fans. In Calgary, they’re saying that you can go to the Calgary Zoo 13 times for what it costs for two Flames tickets.

Somehow, when games start at the Saddledome, I’m guessing there won’t be many folks at the zoo.

See spot. See spot bet: This week's best spot bet opportunities

Spot bets are a classic handicapping practice that have proven profitability no matter what sport you’re betting. Whether it’s a team looking past this week’s opponent, one coming off a hard-fought victory, or a rough patch of schedule, bettors can find value picking their spots.

Letdown spot

Despite being on opposite ends of the Western Conference standings, the Minnesota Timberwolves have had the Oklahoma City Thunder’s number in recent meetings. The T-Wolves are just 1-5 SU (straight up) over the past six meetings but are 6-0 ATS (against the spread) in those same contests.

The last time Minnesota stung Oklahoma City, the Thunder were looking ahead to a finals rematch with the Miami Heat on Christmas Day. The Timberwolves shocked the reigning Western champs 99-93 as 2-point dogs on Dec. 20. The T-Wolves are once again in a position to catch the Thunder looking ahead on Wednesday at OKC. Oklahoma City has a high-profile showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers Friday.

Letdown spot

Even though the Falcons posted a NFC-best 13-3 SU record, they were always priced behind teams like Denver, New England, Houston and San Francisco in the Super Bowl XLVII futures odds. Atlanta’s poor postseason history is to blame for that lack of respect. The Falcons have a reputation for falling on their faces in the opening playoff game.

Last year, they were trounced 24-2 by the New York Giants in the Wild Card Round. In 2011, Green Bay sent Atlanta packing with a 48-21 loss in the Divisional Round. And in 2009, the Falcons were defeated by the Arizona Cardinals in the Wild Card Round. In fact, Atlanta fans have to go all the way back to 2005’s win over the St. Louis Rams in the NFC Wild Card Game for the last time the Falcons got over the opening-game hump. Oddsmakers have set Atlanta as a 1-point home favorite hosting the Seattle Seahawks in its playoff opener Sunday.

Schedule spot

The Utah Jazz’s upcoming schedule is music to the spot bettor’s ears. Utah is a classic home/away wager, posting a 10-5 ATS mark inside EnergySolutions Arena but lugging a nasty 7-13-1 ATS record away from home. The Jazz have covered just three of their last seven road games, with SU and ATS road wins over Phoenix, Orlando and Brooklyn.

Utah opens a three-game road trip against the Charlotte Bobcats Wednesday, where books will likely tag it as a hefty road fave. Then, the Jazz head to Atlanta Friday and wrap up three games in four nights with a stop in Detroit to play the Pistons Saturday. Utah is averaging 101.5 points at home – 10th in the NBA – but only 95.9 points on the road.

-- Murray State won last seven games with Eastern Kentucky, winning last four here by 14-10-2-5 points.

EKU split last six games after 9-0 start; they're 0-2 against teams in top 180, losing at Illinois by 13, at West Virginia by 7.

Study group: Wednesday's Top 25 NCAAB betting notes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iowa State Cyclones at Kansas Jayhawks (-13.5, 149)

Winners of 11 in a row, No. 6 Kansas will attempt to extend the nation’s second-longest home winning streak on Wednesday when it hosts Iowa State in the Big 12 opener for both teams. The Jayhawks collected their 30th straight win at Allen Fieldhouse in Sunday’s 69-62 victory over Temple to improve to 12-1 or better for the third time in four seasons. Kansas outshot its opponent for the 11th time and has outrebounded all but one of its foes this season – the latter of which may get tested against the Cyclones, who are surprisingly one of the best rebounding teams in the nation. Iowa State has won four straight but is 0-2 against ranked teams this season and will need to play better than it did last Tuesday when it trailed Yale at home for most of the game before securing an 80-70 win.

Nebraska Cornhuskers at Michigan Wolverines (-24, 127)

It’s been more than a month since second-ranked Michigan has been in a real close battle, winning by an average of almost 25 points in its last eight games. The Wolverines look to continue their focused, efficient play and match the best start in the program’s history (1985-86) with a victory over visiting Nebraska on Wednesday. Michigan is coming off scoring at least 90 points in back-to-back league games for the first time since 2000 and has four players averaging in double figures, led by reigning Big Ten player of the week Trey Burke. Nebraska must find a way to limit the Wolverines from beyond the 3-point arc where they are among the best in the nation at 42.3 percent. The Cornhuskers have lost three of their last four and could be without two regulars.

Louisville Cardinals at Seton Hall Pirates (+9, 138)

Fourth-ranked Louisville seeks its ninth consecutive victory when it visits Seton Hall in Big East play on Wednesday. The Cardinals are off to their third-best start in coach Rick Pitino’s 12-season tenure and are excelling on the offensive side, scoring 80 points on eight occasions. But the defense has frustrated Pitino despite the fact the Cardinals are allowing just 57.5 points per outing. “We’re continuing to win with offense, protecting the ball and not turning it over and scoring the ball well,” Pitino said. “Our defense is nowhere near where we want it to be. Once our defense catches up with our offense, we have a chance to be a special team.” Seton Hall lost 93-75 to Notre Dame on Saturday to end a seven-game win streak. The Pirates are 8-0 at home against a slate of light foes.

Syracuse Orange at Providence Friars (+10, 134)

While No. 7 Syracuse possesses one of the top offenses in the nation, its defense might ultimately be responsible if it challenges for its second national championship. The Orange visit Providence on Wednesday and should have little trouble with the Friars, who have lost four straight. Syracuse, which has won four in a row since its 83-79 loss to Temple on Dec. 22, began the week 14th in the country in scoring at 79.9 points and tied for 18th in defense at 57.1 while yielding 48.8 points in its last four games. Those numbers also produce the No. 2 scoring margin in the nation and have many believing the Orange will be one of four teams still playing in April.

Butler Bulldogs at St. Joseph's Hawks (-3, 125)

Butler makes its Atlantic 10 debut when it travels to face preseason conference favorite St. Joseph's on Wednesday. The Bulldogs have been very successful in the non-conference portion of their schedule, upsetting then-No. 1 Indiana among their victories and sitting No. 17 in this week's Top 25 poll. The Hawks have struggled at times heading into the conference campaign, but playing at home against a nationally-ranked foe will certainly bring out the best in Phil Martelli's squad, which comes into the game with a three-game winning streak. Butler has a nine-game winning streak, dating back to November when it fell to Illinois in the final of the Maui Invitational.

Georgia Bulldogs at Florida Gators (-22, 117)

Since losing two close contests to Arizona and Kansas State in an eight-day stretch, Florida has returned to its winning ways with two consecutive victories. The ninth-ranked Gators host a hot Georgia team on Wednesday in the SEC opener for both teams. Senior guard Kenny Boynton ranks 15th in the SEC in scoring and leads the conference in free-throw percentage, fronting a balanced scoring attack. Florida leads the SEC and ranks fourth nationally in scoring defense (52.7), which figures to cause problems for the Bulldogs. Georgia ranks 13th in the conference and 306th nationally in scoring (60.6). The Bulldogs come in riding a season-best four-game winning streak.

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at North Carolina State Wolfpack (-10, 133)

N.C. State continued its winning ways into ACC play on Saturday, and the 21st-ranked Wolfpack look to extend their win streak to nine when they host Georgia Tech on Wednesday. N.C. State, the nation’s best shooting team from the field at 53.1 percent, was held under 80 points for the first time in seven games but outlasted Boston College 78-73 to open its conference schedule. The Yellow Jackets’ ACC opener was far less pleasant, Miami pulling away to hand Georgia Tech a 62-49 home loss on Saturday. The Yellow Jackets bring the ACC’s second-best defense into the matchup, allowing just 54.2 points.

Minnesota Golden Gophers at Illinois Fighting Illini (+3, 137)

For the first month of the season, No. 13 Illinois was one of the biggest surprises in college basketball. However, No. 10 Minnesota can put the Fighting Illini into an early hole in the Big Ten conference race on Wednesday when the Golden Gophers attempt to match their best start in conference play in nearly 40 years. Illinois began its campaign with 12 straight wins – including victories over Butler and Gonzaga – but dropped two of its next three before recapturing its early-season form by pounding No. 14 Ohio State 74-55 on Saturday to remain undefeated at home this season. The Illini will face their third ranked opponent in five games when they meet the Gophers, who have won 10 in a row for the first time in four years. Minnesota overcame a slow start to defeat Northwestern 69-51 on Sunday.

UNLV Runnin' Rebels at New Mexico Lobos (-3, 140)

It’s just the conference opener but there’s plenty at stake when New Mexico hosts No. 19 UNLV in a Mountain West game at The Pit. The Running Rebels have won 11 of their last 12 games while the Lobos posted a head-turning one-point win at No. 8 Cincinnati a week ago to crack the Top 25. New Mexico suffered an ugly loss at Saint Louis last time out where they fell behind by 20 points in the first half. Coach Steve Alford was ejected in the contest, the first time in his 22 year coaching career he has been tossed. The loss also knocked the Lobos out of the Top 25. Both teams expect to challenge preseason favorite San Diego State for the MWC title. Surprising Wyoming is one of four undefeated teams in the country as play begins in a conference that is gaining plenty of respect around the country. In fact, the Mountain West is ranked third in the RPI behind only the Big Ten and the Big East.

Boise State Broncos at Wyoming Cowboys (-4.5, 125)

An early-season showdown in the Mountain West Conference finds Boise State traveling to undefeated Wyoming on Wednesday night. The two teams are a combined 25-2 on the season and considered top contenders for the MWC crown. The Broncos come in winners of six straight, all by at least 10 points. The Cowboys are off to the best start in school history and are ranked nationally (No. 25) for the first time since the 1987-88 campaign. This game should be an interesting contrast, with Boise State averaging a league-best 79.1 points per contest while Wyoming holds opponents to just 54.6 points per game, ranking eighth in the country.

San Diego State Aztecs at Fresno State Bulldogs (+8.5, 120)

San Diego State looks to secure its place as the favorite in the Mountain West when it visits Fresno State in the conference opener for both teams. The Aztecs, ranked 15th in the nation, are off to a fine start with its only losses coming against top 10 teams Syracuse and Arizona and look to win a Mountain West-record sixth consecutive league-opening game. Fresno State will be looking to break the Aztecs' 31-game winning streak against California teams in its Mountain West Conference debut. The Bulldogs, formerly of the WAC, snapped a four-game slide with a win over Division II Sonoma State last game. Prior to that Fresno State, which is averaging just 62 points a game, lost to a trio of Pac-12 teams and Cal-Irvine. The Bulldogs are just 3-3 at home with only one victory coming against a Division I team.

Lakers at Spurs: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Los Angeles Lakers at San Antonio Spurs (-13.5, 214)

The Los Angeles Lakers are dragging along with a four-game losing skid and things don’t figure to get better when they face the angry San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday. San Antonio had won eight of nine games before succumbing to the lowly New Orleans Hornets on Monday, a loss that makes for bad timing for Los Angeles to show up in town. The Lakers are just 5-11 on the road and the Spurs are 14-2 at home.

San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich succinctly described the loss to the Hornets this way: “They did a great job at both ends of the court. They just whipped us.” The Spurs committed 19 turnovers in the sloppy, uncharacteristic effort. Los Angeles will again be without center Dwight Howard (shoulder) and forwards Pau Gasol (concussion) and Jordan Hill (hip). The shorthanded Lakers played well early in Tuesday’s 125-112 loss to the Houston Rockets before wilting over the final 17 minutes. “We could offer up a number of excuses,” said point guard Steve Nash, “but what is troubling is when we were healthy, we weren’t stopping people, either.”

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN, Time Warner Cable SportsNet (Los Angeles), KENS (San Antonio)

ABOUT THE LAKERS (15-19, 13-20-1 ATS): L.A. is 1-9 against the spread as an underdog this year after failing to cover at Houston last night as an 8-point dog. That was the biggest underdog line the Lakers had seen all season until tonight where they're a 13.5-point dog. Los Angeles doesn’t yet know long it will be without Howard, who matched his career-high with 26 rebounds in Sunday’s loss to the Denver Nuggets before the severity of his shoulder injury was discovered the next day. Rookie Robert Sacre started in his place against Houston and had 10 points and four blocked shots but grabbed just three rebounds. Forward Metta World Peace scored a season-high 24 points against the Rockets and is miffed over the team’s troubles. “I thought we had the better team,” World Peace said while comparing his injury riddled team with the Rockets. “We definitely had the better team, but every night we have the better team and it’s just not translating to wins.” Kobe Bryant scored 20 points to end a streak of 17 consecutive games with 27 or more points.

ABOUT THE SPURS (27-10, 22-14-1 ATS): San Antonio has won 10 consecutive home games dating back to Nov. 19 when they lost to the Los Angeles Clippers. The Spurs defeated the Lakers 84-82 on Nov. 11 in Los Angeles when guard Danny Green hit the game-winning 3-point basket with 9.3 seconds remaining. Green has struggled of late and missed all five of his shots while going scoreless in the loss to New Orleans. Green has reached double digits just once in the last six games. Veteran guard Manu Ginobili has averaged 20 points and made 56.5 percent of his field-goal attempts over the past two games to raise his season average to 12.7.

TRENDS:

* Lakers are 1-9 ATS as an underdog this season
* Favorite is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.
* Under is 19-7 in the last 26 meetings in San Antonio.
* Under is 19-7 in the last 26 meetings.
* Road team is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. San Antonio has won the last three regular-season meetings with the Lakers.

2. The Spurs are 17-4 when forcing 15 or more turnovers.

3. Gasol will be re-examined Thursday in hopes of determining a return date. He suffered the concussion on Sunday
