    Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

    -- ACC tournament will be played in Brooklyn in 2017/2018, which does not seem right, but that was probably part of Syracuse joining the league, to get the tournament up north now and then.

    -- BYU's Kyle Collinsworth tore his ACL in Cougars' last game at Orleans Arena; that could knock BYU off the bubble Sunday.

    -- Cal Poly-Northridge final in Big West features #5-7 seeds in conference; bottom of part of this year's Field of 68 is going to be very weak. .

    -- Nevada Wolf Pack got a technical foul Wednesday night for not having a player listed in their scorebook; how does that happen at that level?

    -- There are ten D-I basketball teams in Indiana; none of them will be in the NCAA tournament, which doesn't happen very much.

    -- Cal-Irvine has a 7-6 center named Mamadou Ndiaye; English is his fourth language. Knowing four languages is pretty impressive.

    *****

    Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Wrapping up a day of basketball.....

    13) Game of the Year: Arkansas State 116, Ark-Little Rock 114, 4 OTs
    I don't care what league it is in, whether Jay Bilas announced the game, or if anyone besides me watched on TV, but when a conference tourney semifinal goes four overtimes, this is my Game of the Year.

    Ed Townsel of Arkansas State played all 60 minutes, scoring 32 points; he was averaging 9.2 ppg coming into the game. ASU was down six with 1:20 to play in regulation. Hell of a win for them.

    12) Pitt 80, North Carolina 75-- Tar Heels were 11-7 at one point, then won 12 in a row, have now lost two in row heading into the NCAAs. Very difficult team to figure- they just don't shoot the ball consistently well.

    11) Duke 63, Clemson 62-- Tigers have been the Washington Generals of the ACC tournament; they've never won it, as in.....never. They had Duke by the throat in this game, but let them slip away in the last 0:05. Bitter loss.

    10) St Bonaventure 71, Saint Louis 68-- Earlier this season, some paper or magazine did a study and found Bonnies' coach Mark Schmidt gave his school the most bang for what they paid him, as in wins per dollar. Bonnies KO'd #1 seed Billikens here-- very rough week for the top-seeded teams.

    9) St Joe's 70, Dayton 67-- If you believe bracketologists, this was pretty much a play-in game, and the shorthanded Hawks pulled it out. Martelli had his two subs on the floor Friday for a total of 12 minutes.

    8) Iowa State 94, Kansas 83-- Jayhawks ain't winning the NCAAs without a healthy Joel Embiid; they allowed 92+ points in two of last thee games.

    7) Baylor 86, Texas 69-- Scott Drew's Bears have won 10 of last 11 games to jump into the field of 68. I've read/heard stuff in media about Drew not being a very good coach, just a recruiter; well, they were 14-9, 2-8 in league, and now they're 24-10, 12-9, in the country's best league. Good coaching.

    6) San Diego State 59, UNLV 51-- CBS Sports Network's analysts ripped the UNLV guards, unusual for TV guys to openly rip players' abilities. You get the feeling if these teams played 20 times, San Diego State would never lose- they're a decent amount better and both sides know it.

    Aztecs-Lobos at 6:00 today will be an excellent game.

    5) Georgia 75, Ole Miss 73-- Rebels were 2-25 from the arc, lost by two.

    4) While UConn-Cincinnati were beating each other up, Louisville crushed Houston by 29; don't think the AAC will be sad to see the Cardinals leave.

    3) Michigan 64, Illinois 63-- Kid on Illini missed a 7-foot runner that would have won the game. Illinois will be a tough out in the NIT.

    2) Upset of the Day: NC State (+8.5) 66-63 over Syracuse.

    Both Big West underdogs won SU, getting seven points each.

    1) Bad Beat of the Day: Akron (-2) vs Western Michigan-- Zips were up 17 at the half, but went scoreless for 8:18 in second half, as Western went on an enormous 18-0 run that forced this game to OT, where Broncos won.

          Saturday, March 15


          First Post

          C-USA tournament (El Paso)
          10:30 am local time tip off without the home team; small crowd. Tulsa (+9.5) lost 66-61 at Louisiana Tech Feb 6; Bulldogs outscored them 25-9 over last 6:53 of game, but Golden Hurricane hasn't lost since, winning ten games in row, only three of which were at home. Tech won last six in a row- they sat injured star Appleby yesterday, hoping they can get 10 or 15 minutes out of him, like they did in Thursday's win over Charlotte.

          ACC tournament (Greensboro)
          Virginia (+4.5) won 48-45 at Pitt Super Sunday, in brickfest that never saw either team lead by more than four points. Cavaliers won 14 of last 15 games; they used three starters 31+ minutes Friday, played three of their subs 14-19-26 minutes. Pitt was dismal 21-41 from foul line in win over North Carolina, or margin would've been lot more than five. Zanna was dominant inside, with 19 points, 21 rebounds before fouling out.

          SEC tournament (Atlanta)
          Florida beat Tennessee twice this season, 67-41 (-8.5) at home, then by nine (67-58, -2) in rematch Feb 11. Gators haven't lost since UConn beat them by a point Dec 2- they held Missouri to 1-13 from arc Friday- as they made 12-21 themselves, outscoring Tigers 43-20 in second half of game that was tied at half. Tennessee won its last five games, holding its last four opponents to 45.3 ppg. Only two Vols played 30:00+ Friday.

          Big Dozen tournament (Indianapolis)
          Michigan/Ohio State both survived tough games Friday; Wolverines had three starters play 37+ minutes, Buckeyes had two play 34+. Michigan (+3.5) won 70-60 in Columbus Feb 11, in only series meeting this year; Buckeyes shot 63% inside arc, 3-20 outside it. Wolverines won six in a row, 18 of last 21 games; three of their last five wins were by 4 points or less, or in OT. OSU won its last three games by total of eight points.

          I'll post rest of my writeups after I get some sleep.........

            ACC Tournament betting cheat sheet: Round 4
            ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

            Virginia Cavaliers vs. Pittsburgh Panthers (+3.5)

            The Cavaliers showed why they lead the nation in scoring defense and won the league’s regular-season title, getting a workmanlike 64-51 victory over Florida State on Friday. It took the Cavaliers a little time to get going against Florida State, but their tireless defense forced 15 turnovers overall and allowed only 38.5 percent shooting in the second half.

            Virginia will be tested by the Panthers, who have averaged 82 points in its first two ACC tournament games. The Panthers must correct issues that led to almost blowing a 20-point lead against North Carolina and will look for leading scorer Lamar Patterson to play more like his 24-point effort in the second round than his 12-point, six-turnover outing Friday.

            TRENDS:

            *Panthers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall
            *Cavaliers are 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 games overall
            *Over is 38-16 in Panthers last 54 games following a S.U. win
            *Under is 9-4 in Cavaliers last 13 vs. ACC


            North Carolina State Wolfpack vs. Duke Blue Devils

            North Carolina State has put together two victories so far in the ACC tournament to bolster its chances of reaching the NCAA tournament, and the seventh-seeded Wolfpack are two wins away from an improbable conference championship. T.J. Warren will need help on offense to give the Wolfpack a shot at the upset, but the all-ACC first-team honoree is averaging 28.9 points in his past seven games.

            The Blue Devils dominated the only meeting between the two teams this season, 95-60, as Parker scored 23 and Duke scored 33 points off 21 North Carolina State turnovers. Duke hit 39.3 percent of its 3-point attempts in the regular season, but went 3-for-13 from long range in the quarterfinals.

            TRENDS:

            *Wolfpack are 20-7 ATS in their last 27 neutral site games
            *Blue Devils are 1-4-1 in their last 6 vs. ACC
            *Over is 13-3 in Wolfpack last 16 overall
            *Over is 16-5-1 in the last 22 meetings

              SEC Tournament betting cheat sheet: Round 4
              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

              Tennessee Volunteers vs. Florida Gators (-6)

              Tennessee, still regarded as an NCAA Tournament bubble team in some projections, defeated No. 13 seed South Carolina, 59-44, in its quarterfinal contest. The Volunteers bring a five-game winning streak into the contest and haven't trailed in their last 200 minutes of game time action.

              The regular-season champion Gators have won a school-record 24 straight games including a 72-49 victory over Missouri in Friday's quarterfinals. The Gators have won their last four games by an average of 21 points.

              TRENDS:

              *Volunteers are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 vs. SEC
              *Gators are 4-1 ATS in last 5 games following an ATS win

                Ohio State Buckeyes vs. Michigan Wolverines (-2.5)

                The fifth-seeded Buckeyes, who dropped a 70-60 decision at home to the Wolverines in their only meeting this season, overcame an 18-point second-half deficit against Nebraska to secure their 20th victory over their last 24 contests at this event.

                On Saturday, the arch-rivals face off in the semifinals in Indianapolis after the Wolverines blew a 13-point second-half lead Friday to Illinois only to rally against a Illini team they defeated by 31 points 10 days earlier. Jordan Morgan hit the go-ahead basket with 7.9 seconds left to give Michigan a 64-63 win.

                TRENDS:

                Michigan State Spartans vs. Wisconsin Badgers

                Michigan State closed the season with losses in seven of its final 12 games, but enjoyed its largest margin of victory since mid-January in Friday’s 67-51 quarterfinal victory over Northwestern. Branden Dawson told Michigan Live that assistant coach Mike Garland texted him before Friday’s game and simply said, ‘We need more.’ and he responded with an 8-of-12 effort from the field, 16 points and nine rebounds in his best performance in four games since the previous nine with a hand injury.

                Wisconsin proved it was past its midseason lull when it handed Michigan State a heartbreaking two-point setback on Feb. 9. The Badgers’ victory that day was their second during an eight-game winning streak that followed a stretch in which they dropped five of the previous six. The Badgers turned in one of their most complete efforts of the season in Friday’s 83-57 rout, shooting 64 percent in the second half en route to posting their highest point total since a 95-point outburst against Illinois on Jan. 8. Wisconsin also held Minnesota to its worst field-goal percentage effort of the season (32.8).

                TRENDS:

                *Spartans are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 overall
                *Badgers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games following a S.U win
                *Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings

                              Connecticut Huskies vs. Louisville Cardinals (-7, 134)

                              Russ Smith and Louisville appear to be hitting on all cylinders heading into Saturday's American Athletic Conference tournament final against Connecticut at Memphis. Smith scored a school postseason record 42 points in a semifinal win over No.6 Houston for the second-seeded Cardinals, who can claim their third straight conference tournament title with a victory over the Huskies. "We weren't sharp defensively tonight and when you're not sharp defensively, you need a great offensive performance and we certainly got that from Russ," head coach Rick Pitino told the media. "He was brilliant, penetrating, passing, getting in the lane and shooting the ball. He's done it all his senior year with everything you could possibly ask of a basketball player."

                              The fourth-seeded Huskies used a big second-half run to survive a battle with top-seeded Cincinnati and will look to avenge a pair of lopsided defeats against Louisville, including a 33-point loss on the road. Shabazz Napier, the conference Player of the Year, didn't have his best game, scoring just 15 points on 5-of-13 shooting, but got some help from his teammates, including 7-0 freshman Amida Brimah, who was bigger than his four points, seven rebounds and four blocks might indicate. "It was a collective team win," head coach Kevin Ollie told reporters. "We got down by seven, wasn't nobody pointing fingers. We just came together and stayed connected and we go one to the next one. That's what's it's all about.”

                              ABOUT CONNECTICUT (26-7):
                              Ollie loved the fight his team showed against the tenacious defense from Cincinnati, which had held opponents to 39.3 shooting entering the game. "It seems like every time we play Cincy, it comes down to one possession," he told the media. "They are well coached and they play so hard and I thought we just stood up to them. We stayed in the middle of the ring and kept throwing punches. It was a great victory for UConn. This is a players game and my players stepped up." Two of the biggest punches were throwing by Ryan Boatright, who nailed two big 3-pointers to give the Huskies the lead for good with eight minutes remaining.

                              ABOUT LOUISVILLE (28-5):
                              Smith, who contemplated leaving early for the NBA after last season, also set a school record for points in a half with 27 in the first half and scored 42 despite not playing the final six minutes. Smith has been part of 118 wins during his time with the Cardinals and with two more, he can help the Cardinals to a third straight 30-win season. "I play for a coach that has a hunger and drive to win that you won't find nowhere else," he told the media. "I'm thankful for my teammates, because they buy into the system. When you buy into a system that's been successful, you're going to always be successful. I personally took that challenge to buy into the system and get better as a player, so I'm extremely happy where I'm at."
