          Thursday .. Trends and Indexes

          Thursday's NCAA games
          LSU is very athletic, could hurt Duke on boards (ranked #9 on offensive boards, #24 on defensive end), but they're so young (one junior, one senior in 8-man rotation), hard to imagine them upsetting Duke team with three seniors in its rotation. Duke is in this round for ninth year in row; they're 2-4 SU last six games in regional semis, losing last year to Michigan State. #1 seeds are 12-7 vs spread in this round last six years. LSU is 4-3 vs spread as an underdog this season.

          As we said, #1 seeds 12-7 vs spread last six years in this round; #13 seeds rarely get here; Bradley is just fourth 13-seed ever to play in this round- previous three lost this game by 22,6,8 points (2-1 vs spread). Bradley is veteran team, returning 96% of points 93% of rebounds from last year; they got to line 62 times in two wins last week, their opponents 30 (+22 pts). Memphis is young talented and lucky they only had to beat Oral Roberts, Bucknell last week- they step up in class here, face an older team that is highly confident and has legit 7-footer in O'Bryant.

          Texas beat West Virginia 76-75 way back on November 21, when Longhorns trailed 40-35 at half, but shot 54.2% from floor, were +21 on boards (40-19) and survived 24 turnovers, in game where Texas bench played total of just 17 minutes. Gansey had 28 pts for gritty Mountaineers, who beat #11,13 seeds last week to get here, but are senior-laden team (top four scorers are all seniors). Top three Texas scorers will all be back next year, if they want to be. #2 seeds are 6-3 vs spread in this round the last four years.

          You'd think there'd be lot of 2-3 seed matchups in this round but since '97, it happened only eight out of possible 36 times, as dog won four of those eight (5-3 vs spread). Question for Gonzaga is whether Morrison is magical enough to carry mediocre band of teammates into Elite 8, while young Bruins have banged-up PG in Farmar (sprained right thumb, left wrist). Zags are 2-1 against Pac-10 teams this year, losing in double OT at Washington, and beating both Washington State (67-53), Stanford (80-76) on its tough home court. UCLA shot 51.1% from floor vs Alabama.

          Thursday's NIT game
          Cincinnati playing inspired ball for interim/lame duck Kennedy, who has done masterful coaching job; Bearcats are 2-0 against SEC teams this year, winning 92-83 at Vanderbilt (+9), then they beat LSU out in Vegas, 78-72 (-1.5), the two wins that should've gotten them in NCAAs. South Carolina survived OT Tuesday in Tallahassee, now they hit road again; Gamecocks won the NIT last year, are 6-1 in last seven games, but lost 58-51 vs Pitt in its only game vs Big East team this season.






          Friday's NCAA games
          Home team won both BC-Villanova Big East games last season, before Eagles bolted for ACC; Eagles won 67-66 at home, then lost 76-70 in Philly; both home sides were 5.5-pt favorites. BC is a power team that is long way from home for third weekend in a row (Greensboro, Salt Lake) while Wildcats slept in own beds a week ago, but playing on road no biggie for BC team that went 8-3 away from home in tough ACC- this is first of former league rivals they've faced. BC had total of only 16 turnovers last week coming back from 71-65 deficit in OT to beat Pacific in 1st round.

          Playing in Washington, DC is virtual home game for Geo Mason (Fairfax, VA) squad that won 70-67 at Wichita Feb 18, shooting 52% from floor, making 11-23 treys, in 66-possession game that saw Shockers shoot just 41.2% from floor (10-27 from arc).This is just third-ever meeting of 7-11 seeds in this round; LMU beat Alabama 62-60 in '90 (-1.5), 11-seed Temple beat Penn St 84-72
          in '01(-4.5), so 11-seed has been favored all three times they've faced a #7. This should be low scoring game, as Wichita ranked 281st in country in pace, George Mason 273rd (out of 334).

          Florida was most impressive team on first weekend, winning by 24,22 points; they beat Syracuse (75-70), Providence (87-77) of Big East during season. Georgetown beat Ohio State in Dayton after holding Northern Iowa to 49 pts, so they defend without a lot of fouls (foes tried only 21 FTs in two games). Hoyas lost at home to Vanderbilt of SEC, 68-61 in November. #3 seeds aren't usually favored in this round; since '95, they're 3-5 vs spread as favorite in regional semis. Key matchup is whether Florida's 6-10 star Noah can do damage inside vs Hoyas' 7-2 Hibbert, who is 50 pounds heavier than the Gators best player.

          Washington, UConn are both Huskies, both like to play at a fast pace- only two times UW has been in this round the last 20 yrs, they lost (75-74 vs UConn, '98 (+11.5) (Bob Bender coached the Huskies then, not Romar) and 93-79 vs Louisville in '05 (+1.5)). UConn is 6-2 last eight times in this round. UW took 39 FTs in 67-64 win vs Illinois Saturday (Illini took 11); Huskies led by 14 early, then trailed by 11, but prevailed despite making only 37.8% from floor. UConn doesn't have 40-minute attention span; they led Kentucky 43-31 at half, but let UK back in game, after they trailed Albany after 30 minutes in first round. Good game.

                Thursday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but...........
                13) If it is true that Indiana isn't interested in Steve Alford as a coaching candidate, why didn't they just come out and say so, once Mike Davis resigned? You can't tell me that Iowa's early exit from the NCAA wasn't helped, at least a little, by all the uncertainty surrounding Alford's future.

                Of course, Indiana hasn't come out and specifically said they aren't interested in Alford, just hinted at it. Stay tuned.

                12) Underrated move: Bears signing Brian Griese.

                11) Clint Dolezel of Dallas threw 11 TD passes for Dallas last week in the Arena League. Dolezel is a guy who slipped thru the cracks, unlike Kurt Warner, who found his way up to the NFL and won two MVPs. Couple years ago, Chicago Bears had Dolezel in camp, but he didn't get legit chance. Too bad.

                10) There were 850 false start penalties in 256 NFL games in '05's regular season, an average of 3.32 per game.

                9) Alfonso Soriano played left field for Nationals Wednesday proving he isn't stupid. Forfeiting $10 million this year and a right to become a free agent in the future just wasn't smart.

                8) The NFL may vote on expanding the playoffs from 12 to 14 teams, which seems to be a good idea. Not sure if it will pass. In that scenario, only top seed in each conference gets a bye.

                7) The U of Arizona football team lost four scholarships for this season ('06) due to bad grades, but really, they don't lose anything, since they only had 81 kids on scholarship. What it does do is prevent them from signing any kids late this spring

                6) This year's NFL Draft, pushed back a week to April 29-30, is going to be held at Radio City Music Hall. No word if they are going to have Rockettes bring each pick to the podium.

                5) Spring football practice is underway all over America; here in northeast, it gets no mention at all, but elsewhere, football is a big deal, no matter what month it is. ESPN is televising 3 spring football games: Oklahoma (April 8), West Va (April 15) and Louisville (April 21, 7:30).

                4) Chan Gailey is 28-22 in four years at Georgia Tech; he just signed a new five-year, $5 million contract. Lot of big money in football, thats for sure. Imagine if he had won something?

                3) Formet Met GM Steve Phillips, an analyst (and good one) for ESPN, predicts Toronto will be AL Wild Card team in '06.

                2) Will be interesting to see how Kris Benson does under the new Baltimore pitching coach, Leo Mazzone. Benson moves to the AL, so he won't face pitchers anymore, but working on Mazzone's pitching staff figures to help.

                1) One of the first jobs the new NFL Commissioner is going to have is to find a way to move the Saints out of New Orleans and not look like the bad guy. The city wasn't that big, even before Katrina, but no way is area now big enough to support an NFL team. Los Angeles is going to get a team, so it might as well be the Saints, but not easily done.
