Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack

-- Rough week for Creighton; Grant Gibbs dislocated his kneecap, is done for four weeks; Doug McDermott sprained his shoulder, is day-to-day.

-- Virginia 74, Wake Forest 51-- Bad news for Jeff Bzdelik after his team beat North Carolina Sunday- this was an ugly effort.

-- Robert Raiola reports that NBA has fined players a total of $1,932,558 this year; $327,955 of that has come from JR Smith.

-- Georgia 70, Missouri 64 OT-- Emotional win for Georgia coach Mark Fox, who lost his father over the weekend. Fox broke down in tears on the bench as the last seconds of the game ticked off.

-- ESPN's Dan LeBatard let Deadspin readers fill out his Hall of Fame ballot for him, another reason I should have a Hall of Fame ballot. At least I would put some thought into it and try and vote for the right players.

-- Craig Biggio missed induction in Cooperstown by two votes, the least amount of votes anyone has ever missed by. Maybe next year.

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

13) Popular wisdom is that the first round byes are a huge advantage in NFL playoffs, but over last eight years, #1 seeds are just 7-9 SU in this round of the playoffs, 4-12 vs spread. That’s a fairly big sample size, eight years. Lot of pressure on the #1 seeds to take advantage of their strong position; doesn’t happen every year.

12) Over last three years, #2 seeds, who also get the coveted bye, are 6-0 SU, 5-1 vs spread, and the non-cover was by half a point.

11) They’re talking about expanding the NFL playoffs to 14 teams, which would eliminate byes for the #2 seeds. Sounds like a ploy to fatten the network TV contracts, which means it was probably Jerry Jones’ idea.

10) Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but the writer who didn’t vote for Greg Maddux for the Hall of Fame because he played in the steroids era voted for Jack Morris, who also pitched part of his career in that era. Anyone who things Morris was close to being as good as Maddux is just wrong. I’m not sure how anyone can leave Maddux off his ballot.

9) Gaylord Perry wrote a book that chronicled how he cheated as a Major Leaguer and he is in the Hall of Fame, so not sure how you can keep the steroids guys out. Cheating is cheating, no?

8) Louisville brought Bobby Petrino back as football coach, which is tough to justify from a PR standpoint but from a pure football standpoint is a strong move. Now they just have to keep him off his motorcycle and away from job ads on the Internet. All that matters is winning, and Petrino wins.

7) Next year’s Western Kentucky-Arkansas State football game will feature a school on its third coach in three years against a school on its fifth coach in five years. Game should be sponsored by Kinko’s and a moving van company.

6) If you don’t think big-time sports help a school’s overall profile, consider this: applications to attend Florida Gulf Coast are 35% higher this year than they were at this time last year. 35% higher. Think last year’s wins in the NCAA tournament helped at all?

5) The older San Diego State’s Steve Fisher gets, the more he looks like the late John Wooden. Fisher is this generation’s Jerry Tarkanian, building a great program at a school with zero basketball tradition while taking a lot of transfers. He is a great coach.

4) Do the President and Vice-President ever drive a car during their time in office? The consensus of people I’ve asked is no, although GW Bush drove a truck on his ranch during his vacations. I wouldn’t want to go eight years without driving, even if I did have a staff at my beck and call.

3) So If the Prez and VP don’t drive, then they don’t have to pay car insurance, right? That means they have to re-apply for insurance when they become civilians again, right? Would someone dare turn a down a man in his 60’s who hasn’t driven in eight years?

\2) It would be very cool to own the car the President owned before he became President; am assuming he sells it, since he won’t be using it while in office. You don't think his car sits in a garage for eight years, do you?

1) By the way, I would like a vote for the Hall of Fame; I watch as much baseball as humanly possible, 6+ hours a day seven days a week for six months. I’m pretty sure I’d know enough to vote for Greg Maddux, at least.

NFL mid-week line moves: NFC Divisional Round action report

Odds for this weekend’s NFL Divisional Round matchups have been on the board since the Wild Card games wound down. That’s more than enough time for the betting public and wiseguys to have their say.

We talk to Michael Stewart, an oddsmaker with CarbonSports.ag, about the action coming in on this weekend’s NFC playoff games and where those odds could end up come kickoff.

New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks - Open: -9.5, Move: -7, Move: -8, Move: -7.5

Some books banked on the Seahawks' dominance over the Saints in Week 13 – a 34-7 win on Monday Night Football – and opened Seattle as big as 9.5-point favorites. Other shops, like CarbonSports.ag, posted this game closer to the current number.

They opened the Seahawks -7 and instantly took big money to move the line to -8 on Saturday night. Following that adjustment, Saints money showed at the increased spread and trimmed the line to Seattle -7.5

“Most of that money that bet the Saints +8 was recreational and there’s no question in my mind, the public is on the Saints and that’s one of the reasons why we opened Seahawks -7,” Stewart tells Covers. “We expected public money to back the dog but we couldn’t ignore the sharp action that hammered the Seahawks -7. Bottom line, we’re dealing a great line at 7.5 and I very much doubt we’ll move off that number.”

The total for this NFC Divisional Round matchup has dropped as many as two points, with some markets coming down from 48.5 to 46.5. Sharp money grabbed the Under early on and the forecast for Seattle is calling for a 90 percent chance of rain showers.

“I do believe 46.5 is as low as we’ll go on this total, but we’re still four days out and all weather reports at this time indicate rain but it’s not going to be cold and no wind,” says Stewart.

San Francisco 49ers at Carolina Panthers – Open: Pick, Move: +2.5, Move: +1

Oddsmakers were on the fence about this NFC Divisional battle, setting Sunday’s game at a pick’em. Carolina edged San Francisco 10-9 on the road back in Week 10 but early money pounced on the red-hot Niners, driving the spread as high as Carolina +2.5 before Panthers money took the home team plus the points.

“I think our sharps realized this game was never going to get to 49ers -3 – like it did versus the Packers - and they decided to take the +2.5 while it was still there,” says Stewart. “This is a situation where sharps and the public are on opposite sides. So far 75 percent of the money is on the 49ers but we very much like our position and we’ll have no problem going into this game needing the dog.”

The total for Sunday’s game has come down as much as one point from 43 to 42 at some books. Early money sided with the Over at CarbonSports.ag, but sharp action forced the books hand, dropping the number to 42.5. The extended forecast for Carolina is calling for 27 percent chance of rain with winds getting up to 7 mph.

“I could see us eventually going to 42 as these are two very good defensive teams but more importantly, both offenses like to run the ball and eat up the clock,” says Stewart. “We’ve booked this total so far dead even so at this time, no need to move this total unless of course we see more sharp action betting us Under.”

NFL mid-week line moves: AFC Divisional Round action report

Odds for this weekend’s NFL Divisional Round matchups have been on the board since the Wild Card games wound down. That’s more than enough time for the betting public and wiseguys to have their say.

We talk to Michael Stewart, an oddsmaker with CarbonSports.ag, about the action coming in on this weekend’s AFC playoff games and where those odds could end up come kickoff.

Indianapolis Colts at New England Patriots – Open: -7.5, Move: -7

The comeback Colts drew the early money for this first of two AFC Divisional Round games, first forcing an adjustment to the juice then a half-point move from 7.5 to Patriots -7. The key number is getting the job done, with bettors split on this Saturday showdown.

“Since going to -7, we’ve seen great two-way action at that number and unless a sharp group bets us this game, we won’t be moving off the key number of seven,” Stewart tells Covers.

As for the total for Saturday’s game in New England, most shops are dealing a number between 53.5 and 52.5 points. According to Stewart, early money took the Over and bumped their total from 52.5 to 53.5.

“So far, 75 percent of the action is on the Over and it’s understandable why the public is betting it Over, when you consider the Colts not only scored 45 points in last week’s playoff game, but more importantly their defense gave up 44 points and over 500 offensive yards to the Chiefs,” he says. “One can’t help but look at this game versus the Pats and think Over.”

San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos – Open: -10.5, Move: -9

This will be the third meeting between the Bolts and the Broncos this season, with the teams splitting wins on the road. Early sharp money marched in on San Diego and forced an initial move to Denver -9.5 and the public followed suit, jumping on the upstart Chargers. That has kept books busy juggling the juice on this AFC West rematch. CarbonSports.ag is currently dealing San Diego +9.5 (-120).

“At this point, we’re reluctant to go to Broncos -9 or even down to -8.5, because that would allow for all our bettors to tease the Broncos down to below the key number of three and that’s a concern for us,” says Stewart, who mentions that seven of a possible eight outcomes on teasers hit during the Wild Card Weekend. “While we are concerned about going down to -9 or 8.5, if the straight action keeps backing the dog in this one we’ll eventually get there.”

As for Sunday’s AFC total, books hung the number high, with some markets posting the total at 56 points trying to protect from Broncos bettors who love to take their side and the Over. Under money has dropped the Over/Under as low as 54.5, as of Wednesday afternoon. The forecast for Denver is calling for a slight chance of snow and temperatures in the low 40s.

“So far, 60 percent of the early action is on the Under but that’s of little concern because I know by game time we’re going to need this game under as the public gets more involved over the weekend,” says Stewart. “Also, being the last game of the weekend, I have a feeling we’ll have a ton of parlay liability tied to the Over and that liability will outweigh any straight bet exposure."

Capping NFL rematches: What to keep, throw away for the Divisional Round

Another week, another round in the NFL Playoffs and another slate of three rematches from the regular season as Wild Card Weekend breaks way into the AFC and NFC Divisional Playoffs.

Once again, we will be looking at what to keep from the previous meeting and what to throw away as team collide for a second time this weekend.

New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks (-8, 46.5)

Original meeting: 34-7 Seattle (Week 13)

What to keep: Seattle will have homefield advantage in this game, a place where they are 7-1 straight up and a spot in which the Saints struggle with their well known problems of playing outdoors beyond the Superdome. The Seahawks are just 5-3 at home ATS, but even with a road win over the Eagles in the Wild Card it is hard to trust a Saints team that is 2-7 ATS on the road.

What to throw away: New Orleans had just 44 yards rushing in its Week 13 loss at Seattle, a number that will likely improve after the Saints rushed for 185 yards in their win over the Eagles. If New Orleans can get some yardage on the ground and open up spots in the Seahakws coverage for Drew Brees with the secondary being forced to commit to the run, this should be a different game than the blowout we were treated to in the regular season.

San Francisco 49ers at Carolina Panthers (Pick, 42)

Original meeting: 10-9 Panthers (Week 10)

What to keep: Both of these teams are built from defense and it was evident during their Week 10 clash when they failed to combine for more than 20 points in one of the lowest scoring matchups of 2013. Carolina gives up 15.1 points per game while the 49ers aren't too far off allowing just 17.2. It was no surprise that their original meeting was a drag em' out, low-scoring affair, and this is a game that once again could be reminding us all of when NFL playoff games were won with defense.

What to throw away: Vernon Davis and Michael Crabtree were both non-factors in the Panthers' 10-9 win in Week 10. Davis left the game early from concussion and Crabtree has recently returned to peak form after being injured at the start of the regular season. Both were big contributors in the Niners road win in Lambeau with Crabtree catching eight passes for 125 yards and Vernon Davis hauling in a TD pass. If those two can continue to produce, the Niners will likely have a higher chance of success against a stingy Panthers defense.

San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos (-10, 54.5)

First meeting: 28-20 Denver (Week 10)
Second meeting: 27-20 Chargers (Week 15)

What to keep: Phillip Rivers can seemingly do no wrong after missing the playoffs in 2012. The QB, who has had to shake the "Choker" label more than a few times, has rattled off big wins against top caliber opponents all season. Sweeping the Kansas City Chiefs and beating the Indianapolis Colts this season, the Chargers have shown up when playing top teams during the regular season, and showed up again last week in their win over the Cincinnati Bengals. They defeated the Broncos on the road and they only lost by one score in their loss to Peyton Manning at home. If their previous encounters are any indication this game should be decided by single digits based on the numbers.

What to throw away: Denver's rushing game was non-existent in their loss as the Broncos could only muster 18 rushing yards in their last meeting. Denver manages 117 rushing yards per game so expect that trend to reverse, especially with a rested offensive line/backfield that is motivated to help Manning lead the Broncos to redemption after their shocking upset to the Ravens in this game last season at home.

While you were sleeping: Catching up on college hoops betting
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With the college football season drawing to a close, the focus shifts to what has been a largely entertaining NCAA basketball campaign.

Most of the attention has been centered around the impressive crop of freshmen, but a handful of teams have made waves in their own right. From pleasant surprises to stunning disappointments, college basketball bettors have had no shortage of drama through the first half of the season.

Here are some of the highlights from the NCAA hoops season to date:

The Undefeateds

The Arizona Wildcats are the strongest of the unbeatens, surging to the top of the Top 25 rankings behind strong contributions from guard Nick Johnson, forward Aaron Murray and one of the strongest benches in college.

No. 2 Syracuse is also perfect thanks to a balanced scoring attack and stingy defense. Iowa State, Wisconsin and Wichita State enter the new year unbeaten, with the ninth-ranked Cyclones facing the biggest challenge to their perfect record with games against Kansas, Kansas State and Oklahoma State over the next month.

Overall, the five undefeated teams combine for an impressive 45-18-1 ATS, covering at a 71 percent rate.

The Letdowns

The three teams with the most highly touted first-year players have all stumbled out of the gate - relatively speaking, at least. The Kentucky Wildcats have slipped to 14th in the rankings despite a sensational start from forward Julius Randle, who is averaging 18.1 points and 10.6 rebounds while shooting 56.4 percent from the field.

Jabari Parker's Duke Blue Devils have plummeted to 16th, though Parker has excelled with 20.1 points and 7.7 rebounds. The Kansas Jayhawks are down to 18th, with Andrew Wiggins averaging 15.8 points but looking anything like a consensus No. 1 pick.

Those three college basketball heavyweights are a combined 19-19-1 ATS as of Tuesday.

Best ATS bets

Not only has Wichita State rolled to a 15-0 record to open the campaign, the Shockers have also provided bettors with tremendous value, going 9-2-1 ATS despite being favored by double digits six times in that stretch. The Cincinnati Bearcats are a low-scoring juggernaut, going 1-8 O/U, but are a strong ATS play at 7-2.

Iowa State is a robust 9-3-0 ATS, as are Big East leaders Villanova and Creighton, however, the Bluejays could be playing without star forward Doug McDermott, who injured his shoulder, and PG Grant Gibbs, who suffered a knee injury Tuesday.. Illinois has had one of the most interesting ATS campaigns of all, going 7-3 ATS with a whopping four pushes so far.

Best O/U bets

Rider has been the most reliable Over play in Division-I so far, going 8-1 O/U thanks to a top-75 offense and a defense that has surrendered 70 or more points on 11 occasions already. Sooner slugfests have been all the rage, with Oklahoma going 9-2-1 O/U thanks to an 87.3 scoring average that ranks it fifth in the nation entering Tuesday. Seton Hall's quick start in the Big East has been fueled by a 10-4-0 O/U mark that has been helped, at least in part, by three overtime games over the past seven weeks.
