The Hoops Index for College Basketball is now in it's sixth year. We will be updating our ratings and Top 30 on a daily basis. How it works: The difference in the ratings of two teams is the outcome we would expect on a neutral court. For example, a team with a rating of 100 should be able to beat a team with a rating of 90 by 10 on a neutral court. Add 5 points for home court advantage. That's it! If the 100 rated team is at home, we would expect them to win by 15. If you are still confused, just relax. We do all the math for you. And if you would like to see actual pointspreads for the games, just visit Pinnacle above and click on College Basketball. There is no obligation and their spreads are always current. Enjoy!!!

Wednesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but...............
13) Steve Alford had a teleconference Friday, and was asked several times about the Indiana job; each time he was asked, he read from a statement saying he was focused on coaching his Iowa team. Until he denies interest, this won't go away, unless…..

12) ……the NCAA hits Ohio State with major probation, which releases the Oden/Conley recruiting block from their obligation to Ohio State next fall and Thad Matta decides that Bloomington is better option than Columbus. Then, the heat is off Alford, and Ohio State becomes a mess.

11) Nightmare season at Indiana has Hoosiers 4-8 in Big 11, despite being favored in eight of 12 conference games- they are actually 0-11-1 vs spread in conference play.

10) If I'm running the Chargers, I lock up Drew Brees. Today.

9) One of the most improved college hoop teams that hasn't gotten noticed is LaSalle of Atlantic 14, sitting at 9-4 and in third place. Nice coaching job by John Giannini, former coach at Maine, whose career record is 320-175.

8) If anyone asks you, Murray State was first team to clinch their regular season conference title. Nobody will ask.

7) Seton Hall was rolling along, then just as it appeared they would make the NCAA's, they go and lose to Notre Dame, St John's. Not the way to impress the selection committee.

6) If the Missouri Valley does indeed get four teams in, then Missouri State passed Southern Illinois as team #4 Tuesday, when the Salukis lost at 8-18 Evansville.

5) Shouldn't Brett Favre tell the Packers what he plans to do in 2006, before free agency starts next week?

4) By the way, Marquette's Steve Novak is having a better season shooting the ball than JJ Redick. You can look it up.

3) South Florida's basketball program was dragged into the Big East because of football; with Bulls at 0-13, hope nobody is putting heat on Coach McCullum, whose team was 5-11 in Conference USA last year. It takes time to upgrade a program that needs some serious improvements.

2) As for the Player-of-Year award, I would split it between Redick and Adam Morrison. It is the fair thing to do.

1) Wednesday is one of the cooler days of winter, with a full slate of college hoop games at night, after 32 matches in first round of World Match Play Championships. Potential exists, if you're in Vegas, for 14 full hours of gambling activity. Nice.
