Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

-- Georgia 72, Kentucky 62-- Wildcats are now 0-4 on road without Noel; they've got to be a bubble team right now without him.

-- Akron is 24-5, top-seed in MAC, but Alex Abreu, their star PG, is now in jail with on multiple drug charges. Say goodbye to the Zips.

-- Florida State 53, Virginia 51-- Cavaliers beat Duke, then lost at both BC and Florida State. Please go away.

-- LMU 62, San Francisco 60-- Lions went 1-15 in WCC regular season, so of course they spring upsets on consecutive nights in league tourney.

-- Liberty 61, High Point 60-- One of top seeds in Big South goes down.

-- New Mexico State 78, Louisiana Tech 60-- First WAC loss for Tech.


*****

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Random stuff with the weekend here.......

13) Brian Cashman makes $3M a year as GM of Bronx Bombers; we’re going to see if he’s worth it, as Bombers have been hit with a rash of injuries to their aging squad, so much so that the Big Apple talk show circuit was abuzz with panic late Wednesday.

ARod is probably out for the year, Granderson-Teixeira are done for at least April, and Rivera-Jeter are still recovering from major injuries. Right now, this isn’t a good team, and the way they rip their fans off for tickets, having a bad season isn’t really an option.

Lets see if Cashman can find replacements at 1B/LF and keep things pasted together until Granderson/Teixeira get healthy; that’s what general managers have to do now and then, when they don’t have a huge stack of cash to hide behind. Right now, Dan Johnson looks to be the Bronx 1B.

12) One jackass in NYC media already declared the Minnesota Twins to be “bums….guaranteed to lose 100+ games this season” and suggested the Twins trade Justin Morneau to the Bronx. That’s the Bronx mentality; the other 29 teams should serve as a farm system to their beloved Bombers, but that’s not reality. If Robinson Cano jumps ship after this season, and this is his walk year, it could be a steep decline for the Pinstripers.

11) Do people in China go to the movies? If they do, wonder what they thought watching Moneyball, then finding out Art Howe was the new hitting coach of their national team?

He was woefully misrepresented in the movie, but still, going from winning 100+ games as a big league skipper to being hitting coach of the Chinese National team is quite a drop down the career ladder.

10) Speaking of hitting, why would anyone bat righthanded? Why? What advantage is there to it? I know batting lefty, there is a 2-3 step advantage because you start off closer to first base.

Notice that most of the Japanese players bat lefty.

9) Asian baseball fans get fired up watching games; lot of chanting, singing, thundersticks, just a lot of noise and vocal support. And that’s before their team scores any runs.

8) If I ran the San Diego Padres, and no one thinks I should, I’d go back to the white uniforms with brown and gold trim, but that’s just me. Always liked those uniforms.

7) San Diego State has a basketball player named DeShawn Stephens who got cut from HS team his senior year at Chatsworth High, then played two years at Santa Monica College before joining the Aztecs, where he is playing an average of 21.6 mpg. Good lesson for kids to never give up; how many kids get cut as a senior in HS and wind up playing for a top 20 team?

6) Duke can’t be too worried about Ryan Kelly’s foot anymore; he played 31 minutes in a 30-point blowout win over Virginia Tech, after playing 32 vs Miami Saturday. Blue Devils visit Chapel Hill Saturday night.

Don’t want to hear TV types whining about Duke’s injury woes; if Kelly plays 31 minutes in a 30-point blowout, he is fine.

5) Atlantic 16 (not sure how many teams they’ll have next year, but it seems to go down every year now) has moved its conference tournament from Atlantic City to Brooklyn. Is this a good move?

Its an NBA arena, but for out-of-town fans, is this a better destination to spend a weekend than Atlantic City? I’m asking, I really don’t know, though off the bat, my first answer would be no.

4) I’m watching the crawl of spring training scores on ESPN and I see HR- Crawford (1) so I’m pumped up, figuring Carl Crawford finally batted in a game and hit a homer. Not so fast; turns out it was Brandon Crawford of the Giants. Carl Crawford, the $140M man, has yet to play this spring; he just started hitting off a tee this week. Take your time, big fella.

3) One of the best bosses I’ve ever had posted this on the corner of the whiteboard in his office: “If its not fatal, its no big deal.” More people should follow this advice, including myself.

2) There are rumors that DirecTV will drop the NFL Sunday Ticket after the 2014 season; if that’s true, then I’ll be dropping DirecTV too.

1) I get a text from my cousin during the day this week; it says, “In shock …. Bill Moody died.” Now I have no idea who Bill Moody is, but I assumed it was a friend of his who passed away, so I texted him my condolences.

Turns out that Bill Moody was the real name of the guy who played Paul Bearer, the Undertaker’s manager on the WWE telecasts. Alrighty then.

RIP, Bill Moody. Wonder who his pallbearers were.

I'd like to apologize for not posting the evening games from last night....I had a emergency come up at noon and was at the Stanford Hospital most of the night.....All is well now.....

So on to today's action:

Saturday Matinees

March 8, 2013

The conference tournaments in college basketball have started up in the smaller leagues, as the bigger ones will tip off next week. The Saturday college card is filled with plenty of senior days, while several bubble squads will make their last push for a quality win. We'll start the matinee action with two old rivals possibly meeting for the final time in conference play.

Syracuse at Georgetown - 12:00 PM EST

With the Orange heading to the ACC next season, Syracuse and Georgetown hook up for the last time in a Big East regular season contest. The two teams could meet in the conference tournament next week at Madison Square Garden, but this is probably it as the Hoyas knocked off the Orange at the Carrier Dome on February 23 as 7 ½-point 'dogs, 57-46.

Both clubs didn't shoot well as Georgetown outscored Syracuse in the second half, 36-23, while each shot below 35% from the field. Otto Porter dominated for the Hoyas with 33 points, as not one other Georgetown player scored more than seven points in the win. The loss was the only one by Syracuse at the Carrier Dome this season, while Georgetown won their third of its last four visits to upstate New York.

Jim Boeheim's team has lost three of the past four games overall, as the Orange have failed to cover three times in this stretch. Syracuse has been listed as an underdog twice this season, losing at Pittsburgh and picking up an outright victory at Louisville. Georgetown's 11-game winning streak came to a halt in Wednesday's loss at Villanova, while the Hoyas own an 0-3 ATS mark the last three games.

Florida at Kentucky - 12:00 PM EST

The Gators have wrapped up the SEC regular season title, as Florida goes for the sweep of rival Kentucky. The defending champions are on the verge of potentially missing the tournament after losing consecutive road contests at Arkansas and Georgia to drop to 4-7 away from Rupp Arena. Kentucky can make a last-gasp effort at a tournament bid with a victory over Florida and a good showing at the SEC tournament, but the Wildcats were thumped the first time around in Gainesville.

On a night to forget, the 'Cats lost standout freshman Nerlens Noel to a torn ACL on February 12 in a 69-52 defeat at the O'Connell Center as 10-point road underdogs. The Gators snapped a five-game skid to Kentucky that dated back to February 2011, as five Florida players scored in double-figures, while shooting 49% from the field. Since that win by the Gators, Billy Donovan's squad has covered just two of the last six games, which includes a blowout of Vanderbilt on Wednesday.

The Wildcats aren't helping out backers by compiling a 3-7 ATS record the last 10 games overall, but John Calipari's team has won seven straight home conference contests. Kentucky is listed as a home underdog for the first time since January 22, 2008 in a 72-66 victory over Tennessee as 5 ½-point 'dogs. The 'Cats have drilled the 'over' in three straight home games, while scoring at least 85 points in the last two contests against Missouri and Mississippi State.

Kansas State at Oklahoma State - 1:30 PM EST

The Wildcats have an opportunity to grab at least a piece of the Big 12 regular season title with a victory in Stillwater. K-State enters Saturday's action tied atop the conference with rival Kansas at 14-3, while also seeking its seventh straight victory. Oklahoma State is heading to the NCAA Tournament at 22-7, but the Cowboys are playing with revenge after falling at Manhattan in early January.

Travis Ford's team lost the Big 12 opener at Bramlage Coliseum, 73-65 as 4 ½-point 'dogs, as Rodney McGruder paced K-State with a game-high 28 points. Since losing to top-ranked Gonzaga at home in late December, the Cowboys have won seven of eight games in Stillwater, while three of the last four have gone to overtime. In spite of its good fortune at home, Oklahoma State is just 0-4-1 ATS the previous five contests at Gallagher-Iba Arena.

Kansas State has put together a 6-4 ATS record the last 10 games, but three of those non-covers came as double-digit favorites, including in Tuesday's home win over TCU. Bruce Weber's squad owns a 6-2 conference road record, but the 'Cats have lost in the away underdog role at Kansas and Iowa State. The Wildcats are riding a 6-2 'over' stretch, while scoring at least 71 points six times.

Duke at North Carolina

March 8, 2013

**Duke at North Carolina**

--As of early Friday night, most books had North Carolina (22-8 SU, 19-9 ATS) as a 1.5-point home favorite. One offshore had the total at 152.5.

--Since losing at Virginia two Thursdays ago, Duke (26-4 SU, 16-14 ATS) has posted back-to-back home wins. The Blue Devils cooled off Miami last Saturday behind an epic performance from senior power forward Ryan Kelly, who returned to the lineup after missing more than a month with a foot injury. All Kelly did was score a career-high 36 points to lead his team to a 79-76 win over the Hurricanes, who covered the spread as 7.5-point underdogs.

--Following a lackluster first half that saw it with just a three-point lead at intermission, Duke exploded in the second half to run Va. Tech out of the gym in an 85-57 triumph as a 19.5-point home favorite. The best wager was the Blue Devils -10.5 for second-half bets as they outscored the Hokies 47-22. Seth Curry scored a team-high 20 points on Senior Night, draining 5-of-9 shots from 3-point range. Kelly finished with 18 points, nine rebounds and five assists compared to only one turnover.

--When these bitter ACC adversaries met on Feb. 13, Duke captured a 73-68 home win but the Tar Heels took the cash as 10.5-point underdogs. The 141 combined points stayed ‘under’ the 151.5-point total. Mason Plumlee led the Blue Devils with 18 points and 11 rebounds, while Quinn Cook produced 18 points, six boards and four steals. In the losing effort, P.J. Hairston finished with 23 points, eight rebounds, three assists and a pair of blocked shots.

--Although Roy Williams’s team fell short at Cameron Indoor Stadium, UNC’s season turned around for the better that night. Since then, the Tar Heels have won six in a row both SU and ATS, including Wednesday’s 79-68 win at Maryland as one-point road ‘chalk.’ Hairston was the catalyst again with 22 points and eight rebounds, while Reggie Bullock added 19 points and 12 boards.

--North Carolina has been money at home in the Dean Dome, winning 14 of its 15 games while compiling a 10-3 spread record. The Tar Heels, who are 4-1 ATS as single-digit home ‘chalk,’ suffered their lone home loss to Miami.

--UNC sophomore forward James Michael McAdoo has missed some practice time this week with a disc issue in his back, but he is ‘probable’ and will play. McAdoo averages 14.6 points and 7.8 rebounds per game.

--Plumlee has been dynamite during his senior campaign, averaging team-highs in scoring (17.0 PPG), rebounding (10.2 RPG), field-goal percentage (58.5%) and blocked shots (1.6 per game). Curry shares team-high scoring honors with a 17.0 PPG average. The senior guard is making 43.9 percent of his shots from beyond the arc.

--Regardless of what Duke does in the ACC Tournament, I think a win over UNC will wrap up a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Blue Devils are No. 1 in the RPI Rankings thanks to a 5-1 record against the RPI Top 25 and an 8-2 ledger against the RPI Top 50. They are 13-4 versus RPI Top 100 foes.

--UNC has an RPI of 18 despite losing five of its six games against the RPI Top 25. The Tar Heels are 2-6 against the RPI Top 50, 8-7 versus the Top 100.

--Duke has only been an underdog twice this season, going 1-1 both SU and ATS. The Blue Devils beat Louisville 76-71 as one-point ‘dogs in the Bahamas back on Nov. 24. They lost a 73-68 decision at Virginia as one-point puppies.

--The ‘over’ is 16-13 overall for Duke, 5-3 in its eight true road assignments.

--The ‘under’ has cashed in five consecutive UNC games to improve to 16-11 overall, 7-6 in its home games.

--The ‘under’ is 7-2 in the last nine head-to-head meetings between these schools.

--Tip-off is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

**B.E.’s Bonus Nuggets**

--Akron’s at-large hopes and its chances of winning the MAC Tournament took a huge hit Thursday with the indefinite suspension of starting point guard Alex Abreu, who was arrested along with another man after accepting a package with five pounds of marijuana from undercover officers. Abreu is facing multiple third-degree felony charges. He was averaging 10.3 points and 6.0 assists per game.

--Sportsbook.ag has Florida installed as a -140 favorite to win next week’s SEC Tournament in Nashville.

--Sportsbook has Indiana as the 5/1 ‘chalk’ to win the NCAA Tournament, followed by Duke (6/1), Florida (7/1), Louisville (7/1), Michigan (8/1), Miami (8/1), Georgetown (10/1), Gonzaga (10/1) and Kansas (10/1).

--Georgia owns an 11-1 spread record in its last 12 games. On the quick turnaround after beating Kentucky at home Thursday night, the Bulldogs are seven-point underdogs Saturday at Alabama.

--Like UGA, Saint Louis is 11-1 ATS in its last 12 games. The Billikens had won 11 in a row both SU and ATS until losing in overtime at Xavier on Wednesday. They host LaSalle on Saturday as seven-point favorites.

--Georgetown saw its 11-game winning streak snapped this week at Villanova. The Hoyas will be in bounce-back mode Saturday when they host Syracuse as 1.5-point home favorites.

--Sportsbook has Michigan sophomore point guard listed as the -140 favorite to win National Player of the Year honors. The website has two other players – Indiana’s Victor Oladipo (+220) and Georgetown’s Otto Porter Jr. (+300) – on the board and has the ‘field’ bet at 3/1.

--UNC’s future number at Sportsbook is 40/1.

--Boise St. owns an 8-1 spread record in its last nine games. The Broncos, who lost a 63-62 decision at San Diego St. earlier this season, are two-point home favorites Saturday versus the Aztecs.

Saturday, March 9

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Study group: Saturday’s Top 25 NCB betting notes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(9) Florida at Kentucky (+6, 131)

Florida visits Kentucky on Saturday having clinching the No. 1 seed in the SEC tournament with a 66-40 win over Vanderbilt on Wednesday. The Gators earned their fourth outright league title and second in the last three years, finishing a perfect 15-0 at home this season. Fourteen of their SEC victories came by double-digits, including a 69-52 rout of the Wildcats on Feb. 12. Kentucky is coming off back-to-back losses after falling to Georgia 72-62 on Thursday, but the Gators are only 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall.

UAB at (20) Memphis (-15.5, 143)

Memphis is chasing history as it heads into its regular-season finale Saturday afternoon against UAB. The Tigers are one win away from becoming the fifth Conference USA team to go undefeated in conference play, and the fourth Memphis team to post a perfect league record. A win guarantees UAB the No. 5 seed in the C-USA tournament, and would end a 12-game losing streak against the Tigers. Memphis is 5-0 ATS in its last five Saturday games.

(16) Syracuse at (5) Georgetown (-1, 121)

The Hoyas lost a chance to clinch at least a share of the league title when they fell at Villanova on Wednesday, snapping an 11-game winning streak and falling into a tie with Louisville and Marquette, both of whom will play later Saturday. At the same time, Syracuse was in the process of ending its three-game slide with a 78-57 win over DePaul. During its three-game skid, all against ranked opponents, the Orange shot 39.5 percent from the floor and had more turnovers than assists. The Hoyas are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games.

La Salle at (15) Saint Louis (-7.5, 131)

The Explorers could still garner a share of the A-10 title and the No. 1 tourney seed with a win over the Billikens and a VCU loss at Temple on Sunday, which would create a three-way tie for first place. Saint Louis comes in off a 77-66 overtime loss at Xavier on Wednesday, which snapped the Billikens' 11-game win and ATS streak. The road team is 7-0-1 ATS in the last eight meetings.

(10) Kansas State at (14) Oklahoma State (-6, 133)

A loss at Iowa State on Wednesday ended Oklahoma State's chance of capturing a piece of the Big 12 regular-season title. Now, locked into third place, the Cowboys look to play spoiler when they host Kansas State. Kansas State is tied with rival Kansas for the conference lead. The Wildcats have won six straight and will clinch at least a share of their first conference title since 1977 with a win at Gallagher-Iba Arena. The Cowboys are 0-4-1 ATS in their last five home games.

(17) Marquette at St. John’s (+5.5, 127)

Marquette can claim at least a share of the Big East regular-season title for the first time when it visits sliding St. John's. Marquette had already secured the coveted double-bye for the upcoming Big East tournament before it knocked off Rutgers 60-54 on Tuesday. At the same time, the Red Storm were bottoming out with a 26-point loss to the Fighting Irish that featured a late fight involving swingman Sir'Dominic Pointer. The sophomore, who leads St. John's in assists and steals, is suspended for the finale. The Red Storm have lost three straight and five of six.

(22) Pittsburgh at DePaul (+12, 135)

Pittsburgh routed DePaul 93-55 in their first matchup Jan. 26. The Blue Demons have won only one game in the last two months. Since that victory, a 75-69 result over Rutgers on Feb. 16, DePaul has logged five losses by an average of 17.6 points. Most recently, the Blue Demons dropped a 78-57 contest to the Orange on Wednesday. The Blue Demons haven’t held an opponent under 69 points since Dec. 22 and are 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall.

Clemson at (7) Miami-Florida (-13, 113)

The Hurricanes must beat visiting Clemson on Saturday to clinch the ACC regular-season title for the first time since joining the conference for the 2004-05 season. Miami has lost three of its last four games, including two straight, after a 14-game win streak and is coming off a 71-69 loss at home to Georgia Tech on Wednesday. Miami has taken the last two meetings, including 45-43 at Clemson on Feb. 17. The Tigers are 0-4 ATS in their last four games overall.

(25) Oregon at Utah (+4, 125)

The Ducks get another chance to wrap up their first regular-season title since 2002 with a victory at Utah on Saturday. Oregon, UCLA and California entered the final week of the regular season with a chance to claim the title, but only the Ducks continue to control their own destiny. If they stumble, UCLA wins the title with a victory at Washington on Saturday. The Utes are No. 1 in the Pac-12 in scoring defense at 62.9 points while the Ducks are second at 63.3. Utah is 4-0 ATS in its last four home games.

(24) Notre Dame at (6) Louisville (-11.5, 122)

These teams engaged in the longest game in Big East regular-season history on Feb. 9 – a 104-101 five-overtime thriller in which Notre Dame overcame an eight-point deficit in the final 44 seconds of regulation and rallied in three of the first four overtime periods before prevailing. Eight of the last 13 meetings have been decided in overtime, including the last three. The over is 8-1 in the last nine meetings.

Arizona State at (18) Arizona (-12, 134)

The Wildcats have won 29 of the last 37 meetings, including 71-54 on Jan. 19 in Tempe. Arizona State, which is 4-5 on the road and sixth in the Pac-12, looks to snap a three-game losing streak. The last five meetings at McKale Center have been decided by an average of 8.6 points and the Sun Devils are 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall.

(3) Kansas at Baylor (+4.5, 142)

Kansas will know before it tips off at Baylor on Saturday whether it has a chance to win the Big 12 Conference title outright. The Jayhawks enter the weekend tied with Kansas State and their in-state rivals play at Oklahoma State earlier Saturday afternoon. Baylor has lost five of six to cripple its NCAA Tournament hopes but a win against Kansas and some wins at the conference tournament could help fix its resume. Kansas has held 18 opponents, including nine Big 12 opponents, to 60 points or fewer. The Jayhawks are 7-0 ATS in their last seven games overall.

(11) New Mexico at Air Force (+3, 128)

New Mexico is on pace to shoot its lowest field-goal percentage in 51 years. The Lobos are hitting on 41.8 percent of their shots this season, making half their attempts or better in five games. They’ve excelled on defense, however, and have done an exceptional job avoiding turnovers, especially lately. During its current six-game winning streak, New Mexico is allowing an average of 57.3 points, while limiting the opposition to 37.3 percent from the floor. The Falcons are 8-0 ATS in their last eight home games.

(4) Duke at North Carolina (-1.5, 153)

Duke needs a win and Miami to also lose to Clemson on Saturday to grab a share of its 23rd regular-season title. The Blue Devils have won six of the last eight meetings, including their 73-68 victory in February. North Carolina has won each of its last seven home games by double figures and is 7-0 ATS in its last seven overall.

Saturday, March 9

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Must-win weekend: Which NCAAB finales carry the most weight?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It’s the 11th hour for plenty of college basketball teams as the schedule heads into its final weekend.

Those programs with a weak NCAA resume are out for one more convincing win while others are jockeying for position before the conference tournament begins. Here’s a look at which weekend matchup carry the most weight:

Atlantic 10

La Salle Explorers at Saint Louis Billikens – The Explorers are on the tournament bubble and win over No. 15 SLU might do the trick. La Salle is also hoping to hold on to the No. 3 seed in the A-10.

UMass Minutemen at Rhode Island Rams – Massachusetts is another A-10 team on the fence and a win over the lowly Rams won’t do much to change that. The Minutemen are trying to stay among the top 8 in the conference.

VCU Rams at Temple Owls – Temple can boost its NCAA hopes with a victory over No. 19 VCU. The Owls are also in the hunt for the top 4 seed in the A-10 tournament and a first-round bye.

ACC

Clemson Tigers at Miami Hurricanes – Miami missed out on a chance at clinching its first outright ACC season crown vs. Georgia Tech Wednesday, losing its second straight game. Can the Canes avoid a late-season collapse versus Clemson?

Duke Blue Devils at North Carolina Tar Heels – This is a big game for both Tobacco Road rivals. Duke is trying to steal a share of the ACC title from Miami while UNC desperately needs a win over a ranked opponent to get off the bubble.

Maryland Terrapins at Virginia Cavaliers – Virginia can feel safe better about its NCAA destiny with a win over Maryland, which may have had its bubble burst in a loss to UNC Wednesday.

Big Ten

Nebraska Cornhuskers at Iowa Hawkeyes – Iowa has won five of its last seven and has a foot in the door when it comes to the NCAA conversation. A loss to Nebraska would likely slam the door on that foot.

Illinois Fighting Illini at Ohio State Buckeyes – The battle for No. 2 – or even a four-team logjam atop the standings – starts in Columbus Sunday. Ohio State need some help from rivals Michigan.

Indiana Hoosiers at Michigan Wolverines – The Hoosiers can win the Big Ten season title – and possibly a No. 1 NCAA seed - Sunday or Michigan can spread the love over four different teams, barring outside upsets.

Northwestern Wildcats at Michigan State Spartans – MSU came up big with a win over Wisconsin and can win a share of the Big Ten title with a victory over Northwestern and some help from the Wolverines.

Big East

Syracuse Orange at Georgetown Hoyas - With a win, the Hoyas earn a share of the Big East season crown. This is the final regular season game between these two bitter rivals, with SU moving to the ACC next season.

Marquette Golden Eagles at St. John’s Red Storm – Marquette can at least win a share of the Big East title with a victory over the Johnnies.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Louisville Cardinals – Louisville is also in the hunt for a piece of the Big East pie. The Cardinals will get a share of the conference crown if they win, and could win outright if GT and MU go down.

Providence Friars at UConn Huskies – The Friars have quietly become the hottest team in the Big East, winning seven of their last eight and propping themselves on the NCAA bubble heading into the weekend.

Big 12

Kansas State Wildcats at Oklahoma State Cowboys – KSU is currently tied with KU for first in the conference and will win at least a share of the conference crown with a win.

Iowa State Cyclones at West Virginia Mountaineers – ISU may have moved off the bubble with a huge win over OSU Wednesday. However, a letdown loss to WVU could erase that momentum.

Kansas Jayhawks at Baylor Bears – Kansas it trying to hang on to a share of the Big 12 title while Baylor has one last chance to impress the selection committee with a marquee win over KU.

Oklahoma Sooners at TCU Horned Frogs – The Sooners are another bubble team with everything to lose if they come out flat versus TCU. OU is holding on to No. 4 in the Big 12 heading into the weekend.

C-USA

Central Florida Knights at Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles – Southern Miss is on the bubble heading into the final game of the season. Tuesday’s loss to Marshall may have been the nail in the coffin though.

MWC

Fresno State Bulldogs at UNLV Runnin’ Rebels – UNLV is trying to hold on to the No. 2 spot in the MWC and win its sixth in a row.

San Diego State Aztecs at Boise State Broncos – San Diego State is clutching to a No. 4 seed and a first-round bye while Boise State is on the NCAA bubble, needing another convincing MWC win.

Nevada Wolf Pack at Colorado State Rams – CSU is knotted with UNLV for the second spot in the conference and needs a win over Nevada to avoid sliding back.

Pac-12

Oregon Ducks at Utah Utes – Oregon crumbled under the pressure with a chance to clinch the Pac-12 title in Colorado and now must win out to at least get a share of the conference crown.

UCLA Bruins at Washington Huskies – Thanks to Oregon’s loss, UCLA is alive in the Pac-12 hunt and needs to win in Washington in order to stake a claim of the conference crown.

Arizona State Sun Devils at Arizona Wildcats – The Wildcats are trying to stay among the top 4 seeds in the conference while the Sun Devils are gasping for their NCAA lives. A win over No. 18 Arizona would give them a chance.

SEC

Florida Gators at Kentucky Wildcats – This is UK’s last chance to dance. After a loss at UGA Thursday, the defending champs need a win over UF and hope the selection committee takes pity on them.

Mississippi Rebels at LSU Tigers – Ole Miss is on the NCAA bubble while also locked in a four-team battle for No. 2 in the SEC.

Georgia Bulldogs at Alabama Crimson Tide – Bama is very bubbly heading into the season finale with a dangerous UGA team. The Tide are one of those four programs jammed into the No. 2 spot right now.

Missouri Tigers at Tennessee Volunteers – The Vols need another marquee win to secure a spot in the field of 68 while the Tigers are trying to break away from the pack and grab the No. 2 seed in the SEC tournament.

Syracuse at Georgetown: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Syracuse Orange at Georgetown Hoyas (-1, 121)

With all the turmoil surrounding Big East basketball, it seems fitting there is a regular-season finale between Syracuse and Georgetown with a title on the line. The fifth-ranked Hoyas can clinch at least a share of the crown and a possible No. 1 seed in the conference tournament when they host the 16th-ranked Orange on Saturday in the 89th meeting between the rivals, their last before Syracuse joins the ACC and Georgetown helps establish the new Big East with the rest of the Catholic 7.

The Hoyas lost a chance to clinch at least a share of the league title when they fell at Villanova on Wednesday, snapping an 11-game winning streak and falling into a tie with Louisville and Marquette, both of whom will play later Saturday. At the same time, Syracuse was in the process of ending its three-game slide with a 78-57 win over DePaul. The Orange enter in a three-way tie for fourth with Notre Dame and Pittsburgh, only one of which will earn the coveted two-day bye at the conference tournament in Madison Square Garden.

TV: 12 p.m. ET, ESPN.

ABOUT SYRACUSE (23-7, 11-6 Big East): During their three-game skid, all against ranked opponents, the Orange shot 39.5 percent from the floor and had more turnovers than assists. In bouncing back against the last-place Blue Demons, some of the offensive numbers remained ugly, or even worse. However, Syracuse's defense stepped up, forcing 18 turnovers, recording 12 blocks and posting a 47-38 advantage on the glass. James Southerland made all 11 of his free throws en route to 22 points, C.J. Fair added 16 and Brandon Triche chipped in 15.

ABOUT GEORGETOWN (23-5, 13-4): Star forward Otto Porter Jr. led the Hoyas with 17 points in the loss to Villanova. However, he was just 2-for-9 from 3-point range and contributed to the sloppy performance from Georgetown, which had a season-high 22 turnovers. Even more glaring was the massive discrepancy at the free-throw line, where the Hoyas had 34 fewer attempts (42-8) than the Wildcats. Head coach John Thompson III indicated his team was not lacking in motivation. "We needed this game, also," he told reporters. "We're playing for a championship. That's something just as important. We were desperate coming into this game, also."

TRENDS:

* Orange are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games.
* Hoyas are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games.
* Under is 4-0 in Orange’s last four vs. a team with a winning S.U. record.
* Road team is 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings.

TIP-INS:

1. According to Elias, the last time a top-5 team took at least 30 fewer free throws than its opponent was March 1, 2008, when Texas Tech took 43 foul shots, compared to 13 for No. 5 Texas.

2. Due to two wire-to-wire efforts and a double-overtime game, Porter is averaging 42 minutes over his last four games. He had 33 of Georgetown's 57 points in a win at Syracuse on Feb. 23.

3. Triche has missed 12 straight 3-pointers.

Duke at UNC: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Duke Blue Devils at North Carolina Tar Heels (-1.5, 153)

Ryan Kelly was still rehabbing a foot injury while P.J. Hairston was making his debut as a starter the last time North Carolina played Duke on Feb. 13. When these bitter rivals meet again in Chapel Hill to close out the regular season Saturday, Kelly and Hairston will likely square off against each other in a game that still might have ACC regular-season title implications for the fourth-ranked Blue Devils.

While Duke needs a win and Miami to also lose to Clemson on Saturday to grab a share of its 23rd regular-season title, one of the main reasons the Blue Devils are even in a position to contend is because of Kelly’s dramatic return against the Hurricanes one week ago. The Tar Heels are 6-1 – with the only loss coming against Duke – since Hairston became a regular starter prior to the first showdown with Duke. The Blue Devils have won six of the last eight meetings, including their 73-68 victory in February.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN

ABOUT DUKE (26-4, 13-4 ACC): Seth Curry scored 20 points in Tuesday’s home win over Virginia Tech, extending the Blue Devils’ streak of at least one player scoring at least 20 to six games. Four different players have eclipsed the 20-point mark over that stretch, with Curry doing so four times. With 18 more points, he will reach 2,000 for his career. Mason Plumlee, the only starter not to reach the 20-point threshold over the last six games, is five blocks away from becoming the third Duke player (joining Shelden Williams and Mike Gminski) to top 1,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 200 blocks in a career.

ABOUT NORTH CAROLINA (22-8, 12-5): The insertion of Hairston (13.6 points) into the starting lineup has led a slight increase in field goal percentage during conference play (plus-3.9), but the biggest change has come beyond the arc. The Tar Heels are shooting 42.3 percent from 3-point range since his promotion, a seven-percent increase from the team’s first 10 ACC games. Hairston is also averaging 17.5 points over that span, but the biggest beneficiary may be Reggie Bullock (14.4 points, 6.4 rebounds). The 6-7 junior has recorded three double-doubles in that time – matching the same number he managed over his first 90 career games.

TRENDS:

* Tar Heels are 7-0 ATS in their last seven games overall.
* Under is 5-0 in Tar Heels’ last five overall.
* Road team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings.
* Blue Devils are 5-1 ATS in their last six trips to UNC.

TIP-INS:

1. Neither team has won both regular-season meetings in the same season since North Carolina swept in the 2008-09 season.

2. Duke is 17-0 with Kelly in the lineup this season and has won 89.2 percent of its games when he plays – the third-highest winning percentage for a player in school history.

3. North Carolina has won each of its last seven home games by double figures.

Sunday's Tip Sheet

March 9, 2013

While the majority of the men’s college basketball mid-major conference tournaments are already underway, this Sunday marks the final day of the regular season for all the majors including the Big Ten. The biggest matchup on the slate pits No. 2 Indiana against No. 7 Michigan in what could very well be a preview of next Sunday’s Big Ten Tournament’s championship game. The following is a handicapping guide for that game as well as a brief look at few other Big Ten matchups on Sunday’s schedule.

Big Ten Game of the Day

No. 2 Indiana Hoosiers vs. No. 7 Michigan Wolverines (CBS, 4:00 p.m. ET)

Indiana had already earned at least a share of the Big Ten regular season title, but its chances for a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament took a slight hit this past Tuesday with a 67-58 loss to Ohio State as a 7 ½-point home favorite. The Hoosiers are now 1-2 straight up in their last three games and 0-3 against the spread. They are 25-5 SU overall and 13-4 in conference play, but the cracks have been apparent with a 5-3 SU (4-4 ATS) record in their last eight games. The total stayed UNDER the 141 ½-point line against the Buckeyes and it has now stayed UNDER in four of their last six games.

Behind Cody Zeller and Victor Oladipo, Indiana remains one of the favorites to win a national title, but both will need to be at the top of their game on the road against the Wolverines. Zeller leads the Hoosiers in both scoring (16.5 points) and rebounds (8.0) while shooting 57.3 percent from the floor. Oladipo is chipping-in another 13.7 points and hitting an incredible 63.1 percent of his shots from the field. Overall, Indiana is ranked third in the nation in scoring (81.1 points) and shooting 49.1 percent from the field.

Michigan has also had its share of problems over the past month or so with a 5-4 SU record in its last nine games that started with an 81-73 loss to Indiana on Feb.2 as a 5 ½-point road underdog. It has gone a costly 1-8 ATS during this stretch and the total has gone OVER in six of the nine games. Despite these struggles, the Wolverines are still in position to claim a share of the Big Ten regular season title with a win on Sunday as a result of a 12-5 record in the conference. They are 25-5 SU on the year but just 13-14-1 ATS.

Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. have been the driving force behind Michigan’s success this year with Nik Stauskas and Glenn Robinson III coming up big in a supporting role. Burke leads the team in scoring with 19.1 points a game and is shooting a rock-solid 49.2 percent from the field and all four players are averaging at least 11 points a game. The Wolverines have been almost as potent as Indiana on offense with 75.6 points a game and they are holding their opponents to 62.3 points on the other end of the court which all but equals the Hoosiers average of 61.9 points allowed.

The home team in this matchup is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings and the total has gone OVER in four of the last five games. The Hoosiers have covered in 14 of the last 19 games.

Big Ten Best of the Rest

Illinois Fighting Illini vs. No. 14 Ohio State Buckeyes (ESPN, 12:30 p.m. ET)

Illinois will probably need to go pretty deep in next week’s Big Ten Tournament to secure a spot in the Big Dance, but a win on Sunday would also help its cause. The Fighting Illini are currently 8-9 in conference play and 21-10 SU (11-16 ATS) overall after losing two of their last three games. They are 0-4 ATS in their last four outings and the total has stayed UNDER in six of their last eight games.

Ohio State has continued to enhance its position for the postseason with quality wins over teams such as Michigan State and Indiana down the stretch. The Buckeyes are holding down fourth-place in the Big Ten standings, but could still claim a share of the regular season title with a win on Sunday and some help. They are 22-7 SU (15-11-1 ATS) this year and 15-2 SU (9-6 ATS) on their home court. The total has stayed UNDER in their last four games.

Illinois stunned the Buckeyes 74-55 in early January as three-point home underdogs with the total staying UNDER the 143 ½-point line.

Northwestern Wildcats vs. No. 10 Michigan State Spartans (Big Ten Network, 6:00 p.m. ET)

The Wildcats are going to need a miracle run to an unlikely Big Ten Tournament title to make an appearance in the NCAA Tournament considering they have an overall record of 13-17 and just four SU victories in conference play. They are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games and 13-14 ATS overall and the total has stayed UNDER in six of those 10 games. This past Thursday’s 66-59 loss to Penn State as a five-point home favorite extended Northwestern’s current losing streak to seven games.

Michigan State is another team that remains in contention for a share of the regular season title with a 12-5 SU record in Big Ten play. It is coming off a huge 58-43 victory over Wisconsin as a five-point home favorite. The Spartans are now 16-1 SU (6-7-1 ATS) at home this season and 23-7 SU (12-13-2 ATS) overall. They have gone 5-2-1 ATS in their last seven games and the total has stayed UNDER in four of their last six games.

This will be the first meeting this season, but the Wildcats actually beat Michigan State 81-74 as five-point home underdogs the last time they played.
