    Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack

    -- Wake Forest 82, Duke 72-- Deacons had a 17-0 run late in this game.

    -- Colorado 59, Stanford 56-- Tad Boyle is a really good coach.

    -- Mt St Mary's 72, St Francis 71--- Terriers were up 56-37 with 9:15 left to play; lost on 3-pointer with 0:02 left.

    -- Nebraska 70, Indiana 60-- Cornhuskers are going to be in NCAAs.

    -- Dayton 72, Saint Louis 67-- Third straight loss for fading Billikens.

    -- San Diego State 73, UNLV 64-- Aztecs ended game on a 12-2 run.

    *****

    Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Teams to watch later this month.....

    13) Arizona—Rebounding suffers from losing Ashley for the year, but they have moved on from that and are still good enough to win it all; would the committee give us an Arizona-Dayton second round game, Sean Miller vs brother Archie?

    12) Duke—Interior defense isn’t good enough. Vermont was 31-41 inside arc against them in December; they’ve gotten better since then, but not that much better. Curious to see how they are after this 8-day break they just had.

    11) Florida—Best team right now; actually have some depth, which was created while players sat out earlier in year. Donovan is an underrated great coach. They’re going to be very tough to beat.

    10) Kentucky—Very hard to have an entirely new team every year, made up of young, talented kids who have one foot in the NBA already, whether they’re good enough or not. Would be surprising to see them in Sweet 16.

    9) Michigan State—I keep saying wait til they get healthy, wait til they get healthy. Now they’re healthy, but they haven’t started playing better. Spartans rarely do that well in Big Dozen tournament, but they might need run there to get some momentum for the NCAA tournament.

    8) North Carolina—Won 12 games in a row thanks to improved guard play and a watered-down ACC; their game at Duke Saturday will be the last great test for Dick Vitale’s vocal cords this season.

    7) St Joe’s—10 years ago they got to the A-10 tournament unbeaten; this team might be their best group since then. Hawks only play six guys, but with longer TV timeouts in NCAAs, it shouldn’t be a problem. They’ve got six very good players.

    6) Syracuse—Sinking faster than a skydiver without a parachute; losing at home to Georgia Tech/Boston College is awful. If Grant’s back injury doesn’t get better soon, they’ll be out in the second round of NCAAs.

    5) UCLA—Not sure what to make of them; they suspended their two best players for the Oregon game, then struggled to beat Oregon State when they come back. Curious to see their games against the Washington schools this weekend. Think they could make the Final Four, but also know that Alford isn’t as good a tournament coach as Ben Howland was.

    4) Villanova—Got waxed twice by Creighton, which was 30-50 from the arc against them, but have been really good the rest of the time. Need to watch them more the next two weeks. I think they’re Final Four capable, though.

    3) Virginia—Smart, pass ball well, have veteran guys who can shoot it and they’ve lost once in the ACC. If their jerseys said Duke instead of Virginia, they’d be a hot pick to win the whole thing.

    2) Wichita State—Made Final Four last year, are unbeaten this year, albeit in a Creighton-less MVC. This is a very good team; they wouldn’t lose to Georgia Tech or Boston College, either at home or on the road.

    1) Wisconsin—Funny how they looked lost during a 1-5 midseason skid, now they might get a #1 seed. That’s how fragile teams are nowadays.

              Searching for Cinderella: What makes a bracket buster?
              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

              With the college basketball regular season coming to an end, more and more bettors begin to focus on preparing for March Madness –more specifically which low-profile teams can make a run out of nowhere and become the next Cinderella squad.

              We asked some of Covers Experts’ top college hoops handicappers what makes a Cinderella team and what to look for when trying to find, or avoid, the upset runs come tourney time.

              3-point shooting and rebounding

              One of the time-honored staples of Cinderella teams is often hot shooting from 3-point range and consistent work on the board. You can't out-talent your opponents if you’re the underdog, so making the most of your possessions and getting hot from outside becomes vital.

              "Two stats that stand out to me from a Cinderella standpoint are 3-point shooting and low post defense and rebounding," professional handicapper Teddy Covers says. "True Cinderellas need to hit from downtown and they can't get completely dominated on the paint."

              Iona (10th in the nation), Belmont (12th) and Georgia State (19th) all shoot 39 percent or better from downtown while Iowa (4th), Colorado (12th), Morehead State (13th) and Towson (14th) all have top-rebounding margins as long shots to make deep tournament runs.

              Under-the-radar underperformers

              Another smart way to hunt for possible Cinderella teams, according to Covers Expert Marc Lawrence, is to uncover programs with statistical strengths but disappointing win/loss records.

              "When looking at Cinderellas I look at under-the-radar teams that have performed well statistically, whose record is not indicative of their performance on the court," says Lawrence.

              Iowa, St. John's and Texas are three schools who fit the bill this year, as teams with strong statistics and records that allow them to have undervalued perceptions surrounding their tournament chances.

              Wait for Selection Sunday

              Sometimes you have to wait until the clock strikes midnight on Selection Sunday to sort out your Cinderellas. Almost every Covers Expert polled said that waiting until you see the brackets and the possible mismatches is the best way to find your “little team that could”.

              "The matchups are key here", explains Teddy Covers. "For example, a great 3-point shooting potential Cinderella will have a much better chance to survive and advance if they don't face a team that locks down on the perimeter. Of course, we won't have any matchups to consider until the brackets come out on Selection Sunday."

              Covers Experts Sean Murphy prefers to break the tournament, and potential upsets, down by round rather than spotting these potential Cinderellas before the tournament kicks off.

              "To be honest, I take more of a game-by-game approach rather than to lock on Cinderella teams at the start of the tournament," Murphy says. "From my experience that can cloud judgment."

                Game of the Day: Heat at Spurs
                ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                Miami Heat at San Antonio Spurs (-2.5, 208)

                A rematch of last season's NBA Finals — and perhaps a preview of this year's — is on tap Thursday when the San Antonio Spurs host the Miami Heat. It's the second meeting of the season, and the Heat picked up where they left off last June in the first, winning 113-101 at home. San Antonio was short-handed, playing without three starters, but should be at full strength this time.

                The Heat, who are 1 1/2 games behind Indiana for the top spot in the East, had an eight-game winning streak snapped in a 106-103 loss at Houston on Tuesday. Star LeBron James ran out of gas in the second half a night after putting up a career-high 61 points against Charlotte. The Spurs trail Oklahoma City by 1 1/2 games for the best record in the West, having won four straight and seven of eight after a 122-101 win at Cleveland on Tuesday.

                TV:
                8 p.m. ET, TNT, Sun Sports (Miami)
                LINE HISTORY: San Antonio opened as a 2.5-point home favorite while the total opened at 207 and jumped to 208 points.

                POWER RANKINGS:
                Miami (-14.5) - San Antonio (-12.5) + Home Court (-3.0) = San Antonio -1.0

                INJURY WATCH:
                Heat - Greg Oden (Prob. knees)

                ABOUT THE HEAT (43-15 SU, 27-29-2 ATS, 34-24 O/U):
                Miami had a scare when James broke his nose Feb. 20 at Oklahoma City, but he missed only one game and has been as good as ever in four games since. James has scored 20 or more points in eight straight games and is averaging 33.5 points in four games wearing a protective mask. James had a modest 18 points in the first meeting this season, but Chris Bosh poured in 24 to lead six Miami players in double figures.

                ABOUT THE SPURS (44-16 SU, 29-31 ATS, 36-23-1 O/U):
                San Antonio has long been known for its unselfish play, but the Spurs were in rare form against the Cavaliers, racking up a season-high 39 assists on 43 field goals. It helps that the Spurs are finally healthy after battling numerous injuries for much of the season — they were without starters Tiago Splitter, Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard the first time they played Miami. The big man Splitter has been something of a bellwether this season — the Spurs are 16-0 when he scores in double figures.

                TRENDS:

                * Over is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
                * Over is 4-1 in the last five meetings in San Antonio.
                * Favorite is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.
                * Home team is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.

                CONSENSUS:
                55 percent of bets are on Miami and 60 percent are on Over 208.

                          Michigan State has Iowa's number

                          Both No. 25 Iowa and No. 22 Michigan State desperately need a win Thursday night when the two teams face off in East Lansing, but if history between the teams matter, the Spartans have the Hawkeyes' number.

                          Michigan State, who is currently favored by 4.5-points, have won seven in a row straight up versus Iowa and nine of the teams last 10 meetings overall.

                          Both teams are struggling as the Big Ten tournament approaches, losing three of the last four games SU and are a combined 1-7 against the spread in those games.


                          Duke's Coach K, OK after dizzy spell

                          Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski is feeling OK after feeling dizzy and light headed during Wednesday night 82-72 loss at Wake Forrest.

                          Coach K had to take a knee during a late timeout and missed his postgame press conference. He was examined by Duke's medical staff at the arena after the game, who advised him to stay in the locker room. He later went under further examination at Duke university Medical center when he returned to Durham, according to a statement by the university.

                          "His symptoms and condition have improved considerably, and Coach Krzyzewski was sent home during the early morning hours on Thursday," the school said.


                          Cincinnati has let bettors down after SU losses

                          The No. 15 ranked Cincinnati Bearcats have not lost a lot over the past two season, but when they do they don't rebound for bettors. After their last nine straight-up losses, the Bearcats have a terrible 1-8 record against the spread in the following game. Cincinnati’s one cover during that stretch came earlier this season against Middle Tennessee State who has a dismal 3-9 record ATS on the road this season.

                          Cincinnati is coming off of a 6-point loss to UConn and has now dropped two straight.

                          The Bearcats will host No.20 Memphis Tigers as 4-point home faves Thursday.


                          SMU's "Let It Ride" promotion proves to be good bet

                          Southern Methodist fans who gambled on the team’s “Let it Ride” promotion back in January got a ride all the way to the Mustangs’ home regular-season finale. The school offered a $30 ticket to the Jan. 15 home against South Florida, and that ticket would be valid for every home game thereafter – provided the Mustangs won.

                          SMU did just that for eight consecutive home games, including big wins over Memphis and Cincinnati, and better still, the Ponies paid off at the betting window, going 7-1 ATS in that stretch. By routing Central Florida 70-55 on Saturday as a 14.5-point chalk, the No. 18 Mustangs guaranteed that fans who bet on the promotion would get in to Wednesday night’s home finale against No. 9 Louisville.

                          Alas, that’s when the home streak ended, with the Cardinals rolling 84-71 as 3.5-point road chalk. SMU (17-9 ATS, 16th nationally) finishes the regular season at No. 20 Memphis on Saturday.


                          Oklahoma sizzling at betting window

                          Three weeks into January, Oklahoma was nothing to write home about at the betting window, batting .500 against the spread with an 8-8-1 ATS mark. Since then, though, the Sooners have been among the best bets in the nation.

                          Oklahoma is on a 9-2 ATS roll, including cashing its last five in a row after Wednesday night’s 72-62 home win over West Virginia as an 8.5-point favorite. The No. 23 Sooners, now 17-10-1 ATS (19th nationally), wrap up the regular season at Texas Christian on Saturday.


                          Duke blows lead as 12.5-point fave versus Wake

                          It can’t be said enough: Classic look-ahead games are often great spots for bettors. It happened again Wednesday night when No. 4 Duke, a 12.5-point favorite at Wake Forest, blew a seven-point lead with five minutes remaining in extraordinarily uncharacteristic fashion.

                          The Demon Deacons scored 17 consecutive points and went on to an 82-72 upset. Duke was perhaps caught looking ahead to Saturday’s regular-season finale – a home game against archrival North Carolina.

                            Canadiens open as road dogs in Phoenix

                            With Carey Price still nursing a lower-body injury, the Montreal Canadiens opened as road dogs at the Phoenix Coyotes Thursday.

                            Odds remained off the board overnight but have opened with the Habs +125 (Coyotes -135) at Pinnacle.

                            Montreal is coming off an impressive 4-3 shootout victory over the league's best team - the Anaheim Ducks - Wednesday night.

                            Prized acquisition Thomas Vanek is scheduled to make his debut for the Habs Thursday.


                            Pavel Datsyuk, Detroit Red Wings - Early April

                            Detroit Red Wings C Pavel Datsyuk will be shut down for the next three-to-four weeks due to an inflamed knee.


                            Canadiens strong against Coyotes for more than a decade

                            Bettors have been jumping off the Montreal Canadiens' ship since the Olympic break with the absence of Carey Price, but there could be good news ahead. The Habs are 11-0-2 in their last 13 against the Coyotes, who they will visit Thursday.

                            The last time the Canadiens lost to the Coyotes, Jeff Hackett and Jimmy Waite were in nets for the teams (Dec. 9, 1998).

                            This game is currently off the board.

                              Eric Bledsoe to return to Suns next week

                              Phoenix Suns guard Eric Bledsoe is on track to return by next week.

                              Bledsoe injured his knee in December and had surgery Jan. 10. He practiced in full-court, five-on-five scrimmages for the third time in five days Wednesday.

                              With a 38-21-1 record against the spread, the Suns are still the NBA's best bet and getting Bledsoe back certainly won't hurt. He's averaged 18 points and 5.8 assists per game this season.

                              Phoenix Suns PG Goran Dragic missed practice Wednesday due to a left side strain but expects to play Thursday against the Thunder.
