    Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack

    -- TCU 62, Kansas 55-- Horned Frogs were a 19-point home dog; Kansas scored two points in first 13:00 of game. Shocking upset. First Big 12 win for TCU, which is only in this league because of football.

    -- Fresno State 64, UNLV 55-- Rebels have a bad mix of players; no one to organize everyone, get into an offense. Therefore, they struggle on road.

    -- Indiana State 76, Creighton 57-- Rough night for ranked road teams.

    -- Auburn 49, Alabama 37-- Crimson Tide led 23-13 at half. Do the math.

    -- Central Florida 60, Southern Miss 58-- Golden Eagles get first C-USA loss, with showdown with Memphis on deck. UCF is pretty good.

    -- Oklahoma State 69, Baylor 67 OT-- Cowboys blocked shot with 0:05 left, went length of court, scored layup with 0:00.2 left to win it.


    *****

    Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Random thoughts on a cold winter day.....

    13) All this stuff about National Signing Day is good publicity for college football, but it means nothing, since most freshmen redshirt anyway, so you don’t see lot of these kids on the field until 18-19 months from now. Plus, recruiting services don’t know as much as they’d like you to think.

    12) 12 years ago, I was an assistant basketball coach at Schenectady HS; we won the NY State public school championship, had really good players, but none of them were ranked in top 300 in the country, even though Jason McKreith went to play for Rice (could have gone to Rutgers or Marquette had he chosen to) and Rashaun Freeman played at UMass, and is still playing pro ball overseas. If you win the NY State public school championship, you almost have to have a player(s) who deserve to be in the nation's top 300.

    Meanwhile, a 7-foot tall kid from across the river here was #82 in country, because Syracuse recruited him and he signed with them. But if you were playing a game for money and choosing sides, you would’ve taken McKreith, Freeman over this kid every time, if you were serious about winning.

    Side note: a kid named Gillespie made the top 300 that summer; his dad was an assistant coach at Rice at the time. Thats why I say the thing is a total joke, scouting "gurus" doing coaches favors, putting their kids on the list.

    Recruiting services had no clue and I doubt much has changed since then. Too many kids to look at, and not enough time to judge them properly.

    11) That said, sounds like Ole Miss did better recruiting than they have in years. If you believe in ESPN’s top 150 list, Ole Miss got three of those kids; in the previous seven seasons, Rebels never got one kid off that top 150 list, so somehow they’ve made inroads recruiting the top players. Good for them. Now all they have to do is coach ‘em up.

    10) Was surprised to hear that Tuesday night was first time Mike Tirico, Dick Vitale worked together in 12 years; you would’ve thought they would cross paths before then, no? They’re doing Indiana-Michigan State on the 19th, with Magic Johnson in a 3-man booth.

    9) Basketball coaches like to preach that 80% of the shots missed from one corner are rebounded on the other side of the floor; someone finally did a study on 1,000+ missed 3-pointers, and found that while most missed 3’s from the corners do go to the other side of the floor, that number is really only 44%, but still its more than other areas of the floor. That couldn’t have been much fun, charting 1,000+ missed shots.

    8) Houston Rockets tied an NBA record with 23 made 3’s Tuesday, but the Warriors wouldn’t let them break the record, fouling intentionally at the end so they couldn’t take any more shots behind the arc. Words were exchanged. Teams play again soon; it could be an interesting game.

    7) Be warned, Baltimore, not that you care right now; the last seven Super Bowl champs did not win a playoff game the following season.

    6) Phil Mickelson/Dustin Johnson are both 8-1 to win at Pebble Beach this weekend, with Brandt Snedeker 12-1. Lefty is defending champ, plus he won last week in Phoenix, but he’s also playing for third week in row.

    5) Monopoly is dumping the “iron” game piece in favor of a “cat” token. People apparently voted on which game piece would get dumped. Must’ve been lot of people with wrinkled clothes that voted.………Monopoly, by the way, is sold in 111 countries, played in 43 different languages.

    4) Pau Gasol is out 4-6 weeks with plantar fasciatis in his foot; time for Dwight Howard to man up and start earning his $18M a year salary. In other words, time for him to grow up.

    3) Wisconsin 74, Iowa 70, in double OT. Is it me, or have there been a lot more close games in conference play this season?

    2) Texas-Arlington basketball coach Scott Cross sent out an open letter to UTA fans, asking them to support the team for the rest of this season and in future years. Cross is a UTA alum, his passion for the school is evident. Well-written letter.

    1) Can I please get the name of the genius who decided that having the US Postal Service sponsor Lance Armstrong was a good idea? Now we’re not getting mail delivered on Saturday anymore, while they tossed away $34M sponsoring that lying fool.

    Even if he wasn’t a liar, if he was clean, why was the USPS wasting our money like that? We need to know who to blame for this fiasco.

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

      Spot bets are a classic handicapping practice that have proven profitable 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.

      Lookahead spot

      The Los Angeles Lakers are fighting for their season on their current seven-game road swing, taking a 3-1 SU (2-2 ATS) record into Thursday’s stop in Boston – Game No. 5 on the annual “Grammy” trip. The Lakers actually find themselves in the rare “Lookahead Letdown” spot Friday, when they visit the lowly Charlotte Bobcats.

      Los Angeles will be coming off a heated rivalry game with the Celtics and looking ahead to Sunday’s clash with the Miami Heat when they face the Bobcats. An aging roster and injuries to bigs Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol may have L.A. more focused on resting up for Miami.

      Letdown spot

      The ACC is one of the tightest conferences in college hoops, with five teams in the hunt for the conference crown. Two of those programs are North Carolina State and Duke, which collide in Cameron Indoor Stadium Thursday night. The Wolfpack knocked off the Blue Devils at home back in January but haven’t won in Durham since 2007.

      Following that showdown, NC State pays a visit to J.C. Littlejohn Coliseum to face the Clemson Tigers. Clemson may not be in the thick of the ACC race but the Tigers took the fight to the Wolfpack in their first meeting of the year, covering as 8.5-point road underdogs in a 66-62 loss on Jan. 20. NC State guard Lorenzo Brown is still a question mark this week (ankle).

      Scheduling spot

      The Anaheim Ducks open a six-game road trip in Colorado Wednesday – not the best place to start an extended away swing due to the change in altitude from Anaheim to the Pepsi Center. The Ducks play three games in four nights, moving to Dallas and St. Louis Friday and Saturday before catching their breath for a few days.

      Anaheim is back on the road in Chicago Tuesday, in Detroit Friday and closes this tough stretch of schedule at Nashville on Feb. 16. The Ducks have built a solid 6-1-0-1 record thanks to a home-heavy sked, playing five of those games inside the Honda Center. They’ve scored a franchise-record 29 goals in their first eight games but struggled to find the net in the role of visitors last season, averaging only 2.07 goals per road game – second worst in the NHL.

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

                (1) Indiana at Illinois (+7.5)

                Indiana is back atop the national rankings and seeks its sixth straight victory when it visits floundering Illinois. Illinois has lost three straight games and six of seven and is a disappointing 10th in the 12-team league. The Fighting Illini have allowed an average of 76 points during the three-game skid. In Big Ten games, Illinois ranks last in the conference in both scoring defense (69.8) and field-goal percentage (45.3). The Hoosiers average a conference-best 75.8 in Big Ten play and rank second by making 47 percent of their shots. Indiana is 5-0 ATS in its last five Thursday games.

                (20) Missouri at Texas A&M (+3.5)


                Missouri will try to solve its road woes when the 20th-ranked Tigers visit Texas A&M for the former Big 12 rivals' first meeting as SEC opponents. The Tigers have been outstanding at home, but they are 0-4 on the road and have lost their first three conference road games. The Aggies are trying to avoid a fourth consecutive home loss after a 72-68 overtime defeat to Kentucky on Saturday. Texas A&M has scored 55 points or less in five of its past six games and is 0-4 ATS in its last four Thursday contests.

                NC State at (4) Duke (-10.5)


                North Carolina State suffered back-to-back losses last week and has lost four of six since knocking off then-No. 1 Duke at home on Jan. 12. NC State has suffered its last four losses by a total of seven points but has the type of inside strength to counter Mason Plumlee and Duke. The Blue Devils are connecting at a 41.1 percent clip from beyond the arc and went 11-of-18 from 3-point range in Saturday’s 79-60 win at Florida State. NC State’s defense holds opponents to 28.7 percent from beyond the arc - best in the ACC. Three-point shooting was a big part of the first meeting, when the Blue Devils struggled to 6-of-20 from beyond the arc. Duke is 0-5 ATS in its last five games following an ATS win.

                Colorado at (19) Oregon (-5.5)


                The Ducks look to get back on the winning track when they host Colorado at the Knight Arena, where they've won 20 straight games. Overall, Colorado hasn't won at Oregon, regardless of the arena, in 58 years. The Ducks have lost two of three since point guard Dominic Artis went down with a foot injury. Coach Dana Altman feels Artis will return soon but he is questionable for this week's action. Oregon is 0-4 ATS in its last four games overall.

                Pepperdine at (6) Gonzaga (-22.5)


                Gonzaga looks to extend its winning streak to five when the Bulldogs host a Pepperdine team that’s fallen out of the conference race with three straight losses. Gonzaga has won 38 of the last 43 games against the Waves, including 23 in a row. The Bulldogs will again be heavy favorites against Pepperdine, which has lost 14 straight in Spokane. Eight of the 11 Pepperdine players who will dress against Gonzaga are freshmen or sophomores. The Waves are 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall.

                          NBA TNT doubleheader: Lakers at Celtics, Bulls at Nuggets
                          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                          Los Angeles Lakers at Boston Celtics (-2, 194)

                          Just as things were starting to fall into place for the Los Angeles Lakers, another major injury cropped up that could severely impair the team's chances of snagging a playoff slot. Forward Pau Gasol is the latest casualty for the Lakers, suffering a torn plantar fascia in his right foot during Tuesday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. Gasol was headed back to Los Angeles to be examined by a specialist, but he is expected to miss at least four weeks. Meanwhile, the Lakers will put their three-game winning streak on the line when they visit the Boston Celtics on Thursday.

                          Boston suffered what appeared to be a debilitating injury when All-Star point guard Rajon Rondo was lost to a season-ending knee injury. Rather than fold, the Celtics have played their best ball of the season, running their winning streak to five games since Rondo was hurt. Kevin Garnett scored a season-high 27 points in Wednesday's victory over the Toronto Raptors - the only road win during the current streak. All five starters scored in double figures for the fourth straight game for the Celtics.

                          TV: 8 p.m. ET, TNT

                          ABOUT THE LAKERS (23-26, 20-28-1 ATS): Gasol was largely responsible for helping Los Angeles snap an eight-game road losing streak, averaging 20 points during the current three-game run. He was starting in place of Dwight Howard, who has sat out the last three games after aggravating the torn labrum in his right shoulder in a loss at Phoenix on Jan. 30. Howard is listed as day-to-day, but Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant let it be known that the day should come soon. "You have to play through where you have to manage the pain," Bryant said. "When you go through those things you learn your body and what you can push through."

                          ABOUT THE CELTICS (25-23, 19-26-3 ATS): Boston's bench had produced an average of nearly 50 points in the three games prior to the matchup with Toronto. On Wednesday, former Raptor Leandro Barbosa did most of the damage, scoring 12 of his 14 points in the fourth quarter to spark the game-winning rally. It was the third straight game in double figures for Barbosa, who has shot at least 50 percent in each game since Rondo went down. Coach Doc Rivers earned his 400th win with the Celtics, putting him third on the franchise's all-time list behind Red Auerbach (910) and Tom Heinsohn (427).

                          TRENDS:

                          * Under is 5-0-1 in the last six meetings in Boston.
                          * Under is 6-2-1 in the last nine meetings.
                          * Lakers are 7-15-1 ATS in the last 23 meetings.
                          * Underdog is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings.
                          * Road team is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings.

                          BUZZER BEATERS:

                          1. Los Angeles has won three straight against Boston, including both meetings last season by a combined four points.

                          2. Paul Pierce, who has four double-doubles in his last five games, is averaging 24.7 points in 24 games against the Lakers.

                          3. Howard averaged 16.4 points and 12.7 boards in 27 games against Boston while he was with the Orlando Magic.



                          Chicago Bulls at Denver Nuggets (-6.5, 197.5)

                          The Denver Nuggets attempt to extend their season-best winning streak to eight games when they visit the Chicago Bulls on Thursday. Denver has won 14 of 17 games and is now among the top five teams in the Western Conference standings, thanks to strong play during a home-heavy stretch. The Nuggets wrap up a six-game homestand against Chicago, which has won six of nine games. The Bulls hope to have center Joakim Noah (foot) back after a three-game absence.

                          Chicago is a solid 14-8 on the road despite losing at Indiana on Monday. The Bulls are 2-2 during a stretch in which eight of nine games are on the road. Chicago will be without guard Kirk Hinrich (elbow) for the fourth straight game. Denver rallied to beat the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday and scored 29 points off 17 turnovers. “When we create any type of offense with our defense, we score,” coach George Karl told reporters. “Everybody wants to make a great offensive play, but I think it’s actually more thrilling and exciting to a team to make a great defensive play.”

                          ABOUT THE BULLS (29-19, 20-28 ATS): Guard Marco Belinelli is a game-time decision after turning an ankle during Monday’s game against the Pacers. Belinelli suffered the injury in the first half and then returned to score 17 in the second half en route to a season-high 24 points. With point guards Derrick Rose (knee) and Hinrich sidelined, veteran Nate Robinson has played 40-plus minutes in three consecutive games while being highly productive. Robinson is averaging 18.7 points over the last seven games. Forward Carlos Boozer (hamstring) had 10 points against Indiana after missing the previous three contests.

                          ABOUT THE NUGGETS (31-18, 29-20 ATS): Denver has topped 100 points in eight consecutive contests and will find it challenging to keep the streak going against the Bulls, who rate third in the NBA by allowing just 91 points per game. Controlling the pace will be crucial for the Nuggets. “We’ve got to move the ball and we’ve got to run,” said swingman Corey Brewer, who tallied 20 points against Milwaukee. “It’s all about running, especially when you play a team like the Bulls, who play really good five-on-defense. You want to get the pace going.” Forward Kenneth Faried had 13 points and 10 rebounds against Milwaukee for his 20th double-double of the campaign.
