          Three NCAAB teams looking to play late-season spoiler
          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          With one week left in the NCAAB regular season, plenty of teams are still hoping to punch their tournament ticket. There are also many programs not going dancing this March - baring a improbable run in the conference tournament.

          Those team outside the NCAA picture can either pack it in or fight to the finish, and the ones that do choose to keep battling love to take on the role of spoiler against conference foes on the tournament bubble.

          Here are a few schools that can play spoiled sports this week:

          Seton Hall Pirates (14-15, 14-14 ATS)

          Opponent: Xavier (Monday)

          Seton Hall has been inconsistent this season, even with the thinning of the Big East. But the Pirates do have a 68-60 road win over Xavier and will be looking to finish their season above .500 with two games left on the schedule.

          With Xavier riding a huge weekend win over Creighton, that likely earned it a spot in the tournament, this could be a letdown spot for a Musketeers team that had problems stopping Seton Hall during their February loss.


          Illinois Fighting Illini (17-12, 12-12-4 ATS)

          Opponent: Michigan (Tuesday)

          Riding a three-game win streak, including a big win over Michigan State Saturday, the Fighting Illini have improved their tournament resume drastically over the past week. Their big win on the weekend also helped their opponent Michigan move up to a two-game lead in the Big Ten, meaning the Wolverines can clinch the outright conference title with a win on Tuesday.

          That will be easier said than done as the Illini look to make it four wins in a row on Senior Night over the Big Ten leaders and continue to build up their tournament chances.


          Mississippi Rebels (17-12, 10-12-3 ATS)

          Opponent: Arkansas (Wednesday)

          After Marshall Henderson picked up a suspension and an arrest during the offseason, Ole Miss looked like it would have no chance at repeating its magical 2013 run. But Ole Miss is still fighting, despite just two wins in its last seven games, going 4-2-1 ATS in that span.

          The Rebels are likely out of the NCAA picture unless they can make a serious run in the conference tournament. With a 12-point win over Arkansas under their belts and a chance to ruin the Razorbacks' Senior Night, expect Henderson & Co. to embrace the spoiler role down the stretch.

            Take the money and run: Biggest betting streaks

            ATS winning streak

            Los Angeles Clippers

            Doc Rivers wanted no part of Boston’s rebuilding and has hit the jackpot in Los Angeles, where his Clippers are hitting their stride as they begin the final 25 percent of the schedule. They have four SU wins in a row, four covers in a row and now they have added more scoring punch in former All-Star Danny Granger. Granger should provide extra punch off the bench if the leg injury to key reserve Jamal Crawford lingers. Rivers knows a thing or two about monitoring minutes from his days in Boston, limiting Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce to keep them fresh for when the games really count, and the Clips have enough games against losing teams to keep Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan from wearing down.

            Next up: Tuesday at Phoenix


            ATS losing streak

            Saint Louis Billikens

            It was bad luck that the Billikens had to travel to VCU right after their stunning loss to Duquense, but the schedule is the schedule. The Dukes were 13.5-point dogs before they came in to Saint Louis and won outright, and the Billikens then had to follow that up with a trip to VCU, which promptly won its 19th straight home game. Now Saint Louis' dream season is on hold and Billikens' bettors have had to swallow six consecutive ATS losses. The Atlantic 10 regular season title is still within sight for Saint Louis (25-4), but time to get things back in order before the A-10 tournament is short, and the loss to Duquesne which ended the Billikens’ 19-game win streak still stings.

            Next up: Wednesday vs. Dayton


            Over/Under streak

            Boston Bruins

            The Bruins are rarely associated with lazy hockey, but how else to explain their post-Olympics play? Boston’s three games since the break have produced a mind-numbing 24 goals, hardly what Claude Julien has in mind. The Bruins thrive on defense and tight checking, and after four straight games have gone Over, a 3-2 win is (perhaps temporarily) no longer the norm. There are rumors that goalie Tuukka Rask is not they guy anymore. There is even talk about bringing in a defenseman for the stretch run, but that might go on the back burner if Dougie Hamilton continues his strong play.

            Next up: Tuesday vs. Florida

                Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but.......

                13) Big week ahead for Wichita State- they’ll try to win MVC tournament and become first squad since UNLV’s ’91 team to enter the NCAA tourney undefeated.

                One note: over last 11 years, Wichita has never won the Valley tournament, going 11-11 in Arch Madness. They got eliminated the last two years by 1-3 points, but with Creighton in the Big East now, Shockers are obviously a very heavy favorite to win this year.

                12) Kenpom.com has its five-man all-league team for each conference; their MVC team is Seth Tuttle of Northern Iowa and four guys from Wichita. Now that’s dominating a conference.

                11) Reading some NFL Draft stuff; wildly differing opinions on the QBs in this draft. Read where one team had LSU’s Zach Mettenberger as the #1 QB, before he wrecked his knee against Arkansas.

                10) Sunday would’ve been Dr Seuss’ 110th birthday, that’s a long time. He put a lot of wisdom in his books, often camouflaged by rhyme.

                9) Tampa Bay Bucs’ new uniforms look like one of the teams in Any Given Sunday; haven’t seen the back of the jerseys yet, but it looks as if the numbers might be hard to read for TV announcers. Helmets have a much bigger Bucs logo than usual.

                8) FOX’s Saturday afternoon baseball team has Harold Reynolds replacing Tim McCarver, a fairly big upgrade. Joe Buck remains play-by-play guy.

                7) Glad the Sacramento Kings finally let Jimmer Fredette go; not sure why they even drafted him, considering they rarely used him. Its not like his game was a big secret; flashy with the ball, not very good without it, especially on defense.

                By the way, have you ever heard of Vivek Ranadive? Me either until the other day; he is the new owner of the Kings.

                6) Tennessee-Martin and Florida Atlantic fired their basketball coaches this week; Martin is a really hard job- they barely got to .500 in the OVC when they had Lester Hudson and he made it to the NBA.

                FAU was victimized by football’s move to C-USA; that’s too big a jump for their hoop program, which wasn’t even good at the Sun Belt level. FAU is in Miami though, so you’d think a sharp guy could at least be competitive.

                5) You know the Angels had their B-team going against Arizona Monday when Hank Conger bats third.

                4) Ex-Angel Chone Figgins started at his fourth different position for the Dodgers Monday, as he looks to be LA’s super sub. Cuban 2B Alexander Guerrero has been a disappointment so far, a $28M disappointment.

                3) Read over the weekend that if the Dodgers put Guerrero on waivers right now, no team would claim him. You had to figure, at some point signing these Cuban players pretty much sight unseen would come back to bite someone. Looks like it was the Dodgers, though they’ve made out really well with Yasiel Puig and $28M is a lot less to them than it is to just about any other team, except one or two.

                2) Why teams lose, part 1: 2009 NBA Draft-- Minnesota had #5-6 picks in the first round, took Ricky Rubio, Jonny Flynn, who play the same position. #7 pick in that draft? Steph Curry. Oy.

                1) Why teams lose, part 2: 2009 NBA Draft-- Knicks had the #8 pick- they took Jordan Hill from Arizona. Next two picks were DeMar DeRozan and Brandon Jennings- they're paying for that mistake now.

                          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                          Do good ATS teams make good NCAA bracket picks?
                          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                          March Madness is one of the biggest events for sports bettors, whether it’s cashing in on a Cinderella team against the spread or correctly navigating your NCAA bracket pool. Those two things may go hand-in hand.

                          Can ATS success transition into a good tournament team? We asked some of Covers Experts’ sharpest NCAAB handicappers to see what a teams’ ATS record can tell us about their NCAA tournament potential.

                          ATS and the Final Four

                          It's safe to say that when it comes to filling out your Final Four you should feel comfortable picking schools with strong ATS records.

                          Ten of the last 12 programs to make the Final Four have had ATS records of .500 or better that season. Only Kentucky (16-22 ATS) in 2012 and VCU (18-21 ATS) in 2011 have had losing records against the spread and made a run to the Final Four.

                          With that in mind, top teams - and top breadwinners - like Wichita State (21-6-1 ATS), Villanova (19-8 ATS), Southern Methodist (17-8 ATS), and Virginia (16-9-1 ATS) could all be smart picks to go deep in the tournament this year.


                          ATS record on the road

                          While a terrific ATS record isn’t always a clear indicator of just how well a team will do come tourney time, breaking down that success against the spread may give hints of how tough a program is when faced with adversity. Looking at the ATS record on the road can give you an idea of a team's resolve.

                          "I am very interested in a team's ATS record away from home against quality foes - say, teams that made the Big Dance or even teams that made the Big Dance or NIT, CIT or CBI,” says Teddy Covers. "Teams with good ATS records in that particular subset are most assuredly teams I'd be looking to pick in my bracket as well."

                          This year's road ATS kings with chances of going deep in the tournament include Michigan State (8-2 ATS), Wichita State (11-1 ATS), and New Mexico (6-2 ATS).


                          Overrated/Underrated ATS teams

                          Sometimes a bad ATS record can be just as informative as a good one when penciling in your bracket picks. Chasing trends and hot streaks come March Madness can often lead basketball fans in the wrong direction.

                          Covers' Expert Steve Merril treats the regular and postseason as two separate entities and believes that you can find some sleeper tournament teams amongst those that fell short of the oddsmakers’ expectations during conference play. These programs are usually good enough to make the cut Selection Sunday and view the tournament as a “new season”. In fact, Merril sees great opportunity to bet against teams on long ATS streaks during March Madness.

                          "If anything, I would look to play against teams with good ATS records as they have probably become a bit overrated, especially from a handicapping perspective," he says. "In fact, teams on a 3-0 SU and ATS run have been a long-term losing play in the NCAA tournament."

                          Whichever way you look at it, ATS records can be a significant part of the evaluation process when filling out your NCAA bracket. If you can find the right trends at the right time, you may just get an edge on your opponents in your bracket pool and avoid the upset at the sportsbook.

                            Tar Heels still hot SU, but cooled off for bettors

                            For a recent stretch, North Carolina was arguably not only the hottest team on the floor, but also at the betting window. The Tar Heels peeled off a 9-0 SU and ATS streak that included key home wins over archrival Duke and Pittsburgh, and a trio of road wins and covers in ACC play.

                            Carolina is still hot SU, winning its last three games to stretch its streak to 12 in a row. But the Heels have lost their touch at the betting window, dropping their last three, including Monday’s 63-61 squeaker over visiting Notre Dame, with Carolina a 12-point chalk.


                            Slumping Syracuse a big fave vs Georgia Tech

                            Syracuse was undefeated all the way up until Feb. 19, when Boston College dealt the Orange a shocking 62-59 upset home loss. The ‘Cuse has dumped three of its last four SU after Saturday’s 75-56 road beatdown at the hands of Virginia, and the Orange haven’t cashed since Feb. 12, going 0-4-1 ATS following a 58-56 win at Pittsburgh as a 2-point pup.

                            The Orange (26-3 SU, 13-10-2 ATS) are home tonight against struggling Georgia Tech (13-16 SU, 10-12-1 ATS), which should bode well for a SU victory. But Syracuse opened as a 15.5-point chalk, which could be tough to cover for a team that just lost by 19 and had its previous five games decided by a total of 14 points.


                            Smaller conferences dominate top of ATS standings

                            If you’re looking for the big-boy basketball schools, one place you won’t find them is in the top 10 of the ATS standings. Villanova is the only big-name program in the top 10 as conference tournament season looms.

                            The Wildcats (26-3 SU) are third with a 19-8 ATS mark, but every other team in the top 10 is a mid-major or even a small major, from Wichita State at No. 1 to Southern Methodist at No. 10. In between are Cleveland State, Portland, Utah, Buffalo, Texas-El Paso, Tulsa, and IUPU-Ft. Wayne.


                            Shockers close regular season as ATS champs

                            Wichita State has staked its claim to the regular-season pointspread championship. The Shockers pounded Missouri State 68-45 laying 16 points at home Saturday to finish a perfect regular season at 31-0, and they were quite impressive at the betting window too.

                            Wichita State went 21-6-1 ATS, cashing a whopping 77.8 percent of its games, including its last five in a row as it preps for the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament later this week in St. Louis. No other team has enough regular-season games remaining to catch the Shockers.


                            Kansas C Embiid out with back injury

                            Kansas freshman center Joel Embiid will sit out the team's final two regular-season games because of a back injury.

                            The No. 8 Jayhawks (22-7, 13-3 Big 12) play Texas Tech on Wednesday and are at West Virginia on Saturday. Kansas already won the regular-season Big 12 title.

                            "I think he could return for the Big 12 tournament," coach Bill Self told ESPN.com on Monday. "But it shouldn't impact the NCAA tournament."

                            Embiid missed Kansas' win over TCU on Feb. 15 after injuring his back. After playing the next three games, he re-injured it in the second half of Saturday's loss at Oklahoma State.

                            Embiid, a 7-footer, is averaging 11.2 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game. He could be the top pick in the NBA draft if he leaves school early.

                                ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                For some, March Madness doesn’t begin until Selection Sunday. For others, it starts with the big conference tournaments. But for numerous mid-major leagues around the country, March Madness starts this week with conference tournaments kicking off.

                                Here’s what to watch for in the mid-major conference tournaments beginning this week:
