[CNOTES]

Armadillo: Sunday's six-pack

Westgate Super Contest (1,727 entrants-- prize pool is $2.5M)
six most popular picks in Week 14 season record: 39-38-2

6) Steelers +2.5 (377)-- Bengals clinch division with a win here. .

5) Bills -1 (386)-- LeSean McCoy returns to Philly; interesting game.

4) Giants -1 (447)-- Big Blue has lost four games in last minute when they led.

3) Lions even (517)-- Detroit had extra prep time after LW's Thursday game.

2) Patriots -3 (532)-- People don't think NE will lose three in a row.

1) Seahawks -6.5 (962)-- Spread doubled after Clausen named starter.

**********

Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports Saturday......

13) Bucks 108, Warriors 95-- Golden State's 28-game win streak comes to an end; I'm wondering if anyone in Oakland is relieved the streak is over, so they can get on with the business of the regular season- the bandwagon will empty, lot of the media will be gone, and they can properly rest guys who are banged-up.

12) Our world is too impatient: Penguins fired coach Mike Johnston, even though the team has a 15-10-3 record. 15-10-3 ain't bad. Apparently the owners think things should be better, but its not even Christmas yet. We'll see how this turns out.

11) Chattanooga 61, Dayton 59-- Biggest basketball upset of the day; Flyers won at Vanderbilt earlier this week, now lose at home to a Southern Conference team. UTC has a new coach this year; the previous coach replaced Shaka Smart at VCU.

10) Texas 84, North Carolina 82-- Speaking of Shaka Smart, he got the biggest win of his brief Texas tenure when his Longhorns upset UNC on a late baseline jumper that just barely beat the buzzer. Tar Heels are now 0-2 in true road games.

9) I know the show is 90:00 because they can sell ads to fill 90:00 of TV, but why in God's name does ESPN waste 90:00 of airtime for a Heisman Trophy show? All that matter is the thirty seconds at the end the winner is announced- how can people watch the rest of it? What is said that already hasn't been said?

8) When Iowa State rallied back from 20 down to beat Iowa Thursday, kids stormed the court in celebration, during which a sports columnist was knocked down and he broke his leg. Few years ago, a high school star in Arizona was paralyzed when he was trampled in a similar court storming- the kid had a scholarship at Stanford waiting for him, but he can't walk anymore. Pretty soon court storming will be banned.

7) Xavier 65, Cincinnati 55-- Musketeers have now won six of last seven games in an intense inner-city rivalry- they're probably the best team in the Big East. .

6) Xavier-Cincinnati is so intense that it was moved off campus for a couple years to a neutral downtown arena, after a big brawl. When you see the refs assigned to a game like this, it is a big compliment to them. The three refs at Xavier last night were Jeffrey Anderson, Brent Hampton, Roger Ayers- they must be very good officials.

5) UCLA 71, Gonzaga 66-- Zags lost at home to Arizona/UCLA in last eight days; at what point do we call them a fraud, or is Karnowski's back injury the missing link to the Zags being a really good team? Gonzaga gets an awful lot of publicity, but other than taking the WCC every year, what exactly do they win?

4) Kansas 82, Oregon State 67-- Jayhawks were down 11 at half, outscored OSU 54-28 in second half. Beavers' coach Wayne Tinkle's son plays for OSU-- he shoots a lot of 3-pointers, he wears uniform number 3, his first name is Tres. Now that makes sense; the kid hit his first five 3's in this game, but made only one other basket.

3) Michael Cuddyer retired after 15 years in the big leagues; good to wrap up your career by playing in a World Series for the first time. Cuddyer banked just over $79M in his 13-year career- he would have made another $12.5M if he played next year. .

2) Marquette 57, Wisconsin 55-- Badgers have lost three home games already.

1) Carolina Panthers are 12-0, rolling along towards an undefeated season, but coach Ron Rivera's mom Delores thinks the Panthers should blitz more. Seriously, she knows a lot about football and thinks her son's defense doesn't blitz enough. Oy.

Armadillo: Monday's six-pack


Westgate Super Contest (1,727 entrants-- prize pool is $2.5M)
six most popular picks in Week 14 season record: 42-40-2


6) Steelers +2.5 (377)-- Bengals clinch division with a win here- W. .


5) Bills -1 (386)-- LeSean McCoy returns to Philly; interesting game- L.


4) Giants -1 (447)-- Big Blue has lost four games in last minute when they led.


3) Lions even (517)-- Detroit had extra prep time after LW's Thursday game- L.


2) Patriots -3 (532)-- People don't think NE will lose three in a row- W.


1) Seahawks -6.5 (962)-- Spread doubled after Clausen named starter- W.


**********


Armadillo: Monday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports Sunday......


14) Steelers 33, Bengals 20-- This is how fragile success is in the NFL; Andy Dalton broke his right (passing) thumb, is out for the year- he might get back for the playoffs, but how long are the Bengals going to last in playoffs without him? This probably will cost them a first round bye, at least.


Wonder what the jackasses who booed Dalton at the celebrity softball game in Cincy last summer are saying now?


13) Eagles 23, Bills 20-- When LeSean McCoy was in Philly, he lived in a condo that didn't allow Christmas decorations on the doors that led to the hallway; McCoy's mom put them up anyway, no one said anything, so other people put them up. McCoy had 74 yards on 20 rushes in his return to Philly, but Bills had 15 penalties for 101 yards, Eagles five for 55. Third loss in four games for Rex Ryan's fading team.


12) Panthers 38, Falcons 0-- While network TV nitwits insist on putting Dallas on national TV most every week, Carolina is 13-0 and steamrolling towards going 16-0. This was a major tank job by freefalling Falcons, who gave up almost 300 yards in the first quarter. Atlanta has a big decision regarding Matt Ryan this winter- do they plan to go ahead with him as their franchise QB and if so, why?


11) Browns 24, 49ers 10-- Manziel was 21-31, 270 passing as Cleveland ended skid at seven games. Johnny Football has certainly improved this year, but are Browns using him to get ready for 2016, or to showcase him for a trade? Total yardage in this game was 481-221, Browns ran for 230, winning easily despite a -2 turnover ratio.


10) Redskins 24, Bears 21-- Condolences to Jay Cutler, whose brother-in-law was found dead in Utah this week, at age 30. Nine of last ten Chicago games were won by six or less points- Chicago lost three of its last four. Jay Gruden was head coach in Arena League for nine years, UFL for one; he is actually one of more experienced head coaches in NFL. Washington/Philly are tied atop NFC East at 6-7.


9) Rams 21, Lions 14-- At one point in this game, Rams had 3rd-and-3, Keenum took a quick drop, threw a 5-yard pass to Britt and the play gained seven yards and a first down- I jumped out of my chair and shook my fist-- they NEVER get first downs that easily, and I'm not being sarcastic. Actual progress. Aaron Donald is a beast at tackle and Hekker/Gurley also had big games, as St Louis ended a 5-game skid.


8) Chiefs 10, Chargers 3-- Gil Brandt pointed out that Chiefs are the second team in NFL history ('70 Bengals) to win seven consecutive games following a losing streak of five games- this was first of the seven they didn't cover. San Diego isn't a good team, but they've covered their last four road games. .


7) Saints 24, Buccaneers 17-- Damaging loss to Bucs' playoff hopes, as Saints win fourth visit in row to Bay Area, endng their 4-game skid. This turned out to be a good week for teams on long losing streaks (Saints-Browns-Rams). Saints converted on 12 of 17 third down plays, helping New Orleans to 9-yard edge in field position.


6) Jaguars 51, Colts 16-- Indy led this game 13-3 at 2:00 warning of first half, gave up a defensive TD before halftime, then two more TDs in first 3:11 of third quarter. Jags outscored Indy 42-3 in second half; at 5-8, they're not out of AFC South race just yet, with Texans losing badly Sunday night. As for Colts, who lost 45-10 last week, it is time to start speculating on who their next coach will be.


5) Jets 30, Titans 8-- My cousin texted me around 2:15: "....Titans stopped playing".


Jets are now +15 in turnovers in their eight wins, -13 in five losses. Jets ran for 183 yards, had 12-yard edge in field position. Only Tennessee TD was pass to Mariota. Jets-Steelers-Chiefs are tied for two AFC Wild Cards; Gang Green ends up with road games at Dallas/Buffalo and a home game with New England.


4) Raiders 15, Broncos 12-- NFL teams are now 1-25 when they don't score a TD on offense, the one win being the first Raider-Bronco game, so Denver didn't score a TD on offense in two games vs Oakland this year. Red zone failures in first half (three FGs on three red zone drives), dropped passes on big plays in second half doomed Denver here. The big question in Denver is going to be whether or not Osweiler keeps his job at QB, if and when Peyton Manning deems himself ready to play.


Jack Del Rio almost broke Twitter when he went for two with a 15-12 lead; turns out the Oakland long snapper hurt his shoulder, so they went for two instead of risking a fouled-up snap on a PAT with a backup snapper.


3) Seahawks 35, Ravens 6-- Former Viking coaxh Bud Grant liked to say "Its not who you play, its when you play them". Seattle played Chicago in only game Jimmy Clausen started for Bears; here they played Ravens in only game Clausen has started for them. The results? 26-0/35-6 wins. Clausen might be the worst QB in the NFL. Seattle looks like the #5 seed in the NFC, which will make them a hefty road favorite at the NFC East champ on Wild Card weekend.


2) Packers 28, Cowboys 7-- Dallas is now 1-8 with backup QBs starting; when NFL only has two 4:00 games and Cassel-led Cowboys are in one of them, its just terrible scheduling. Put the undefeated Panthers in the national spotlight more often, they've earned it. Biggest news here is that Mike McCarthy took play-calling duties back for Green Bay, who end season with Raiders-Cardinals-Vikings.


1) Patriots 27, Texans 6-- This game had all the suspense of a Harlem Globetrotters-Washington Generals tilt. NE is back as #1 seed in AFC, with Broncos/Bengals losing. Houston plays at Indy next week; in what could be a QB matchuip between Charlie Whitehurst-TJ Yates, with a division title on the line. Can the Rams get moved to this division? They're as good as any of those four teams.

No. 9 Villanova 78, La Salle 55


The Wildcats were lights-out from the floor, especially in the second half, to run away with a victory over the Explorers.


Up 15 at halftime, Villanova made nine of its first 10 shots of the second half to open up a 30-point advantage on its city rivals before the period's midway point.


Josh Hart (18 points), Ryan Arcidiacono (14 points, seven assists), and Jalen Brunson (13 points) led the way for the Wildcats (8-1). Jordan Price scored a team-high 16 points for La Salle (4-4).

No. 13 Arizona 88, Missouri 52


Mark Tollefsen scored 17 points guard Gabe York had 16 to lead a balanced offensive effort as 13th-ranked Arizona started fast and never let up in routing Missouri in Tucson, Ariz.


Missouri was led in scoring by Namon Wright, who had nine points. Wes Clark and forward Jakeenan Gant each had eight.


Arizona played its fifth game without starting senior Kaleb Tarczewski, expected to be out until at least the start of conference season -- Jan. 3 at Arizona State -- because of an ankle injury. The Wildcats were also without Elliott Pitts for the second consecutive game.

Red-Hot ATS Teams
December 13, 2015


Through one month of the college basketball season, several teams have made plenty of money for backers. Some of those squads belong to major conferences, but others are flying under the radar as the oddsmakers have yet to catch up with these small schools. We’ll take a look at a handful of clubs that you should keep an eye moving forward that can profit from an against the spread standpoint.


Arkansas-Little Rock Trojans (8-0 SU, 5-0 ATS)


UALR is one of two Sun Belt teams on this list, as the Trojans have pulled off three outright underdog victories at San Diego State, Tulsa, and DePaul this season. In seven of eight games, the Trojans have allowed 60 points or less, while owning an impressive 5-0 SU/ATS record away from Little Rock. UALR plays two more road games prior to Sun Belt play (at Central Arkansas on 12/16 and at Texas Tech on 12/22).


Central Florida Knights (5-3 SU, 7-0 ATS)


UCF began the season at 1-3, but has rebounded with four consecutive wins, capped off by Saturday’s 14-point victory over Florida Atlantic. The Knights managed covers in close underdog losses to Davidson, UC-Irvine, and Miami-Ohio as UCF lost those three games by a combined seven points. UCF has won and cashed in all four favorite opportunities as their next chance to be favored at home will come in their AAC opener against USF on January 6.


IPFW Mastodons (8-4 SU, 8-1 ATS)


Before breaking down IPFW (Indiana University – Purdue University Fort Wayne), you should know that a Mastodon is a prehistoric elephant. This team out of the Summit League went 16-15 last season, but IPFW has posted a 5-1 ATS record as an underdog this season. The Mastodons covered in defeats to Valparaiso and Utah, while knocking off Cal Poly SLO and Miami-Ohio in the ‘dog role. IPFW is the hottest ATS team in the country since January, compiling an 18-3 ATS mark the last 21 games, including a 12-1 ATS ledger in this span as an underdog.


Kansas State Wildcats (7-2 SU, 5-0-1 ATS)


The college basketball spotlight in the Sunflower State will always shine on Kansas, but Kansas State is looking to make waves in the Big 12 this season. The Wildcats have won all five games at Bramlage Coliseum, although three of those victories came against teams from the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. K-State begins a stretch of four consecutive home games following a 10-point loss at Texas A&M on Saturday, as the Wildcats will be favored in the first three contests (Colorado State, North Dakota, and St. Louis).


Monmouth Hawks (5-3 SU, 6-2 ATS)


This fun team out of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference has already pulled off outright underdog victories over UCLA, Notre Dame, and USC. The Hawks split their first two conference games against Canisius and Niagara on the road, as they have put together a 3-2 ATS mark in true away contests. Monmouth will be tested on the highway over the next week with trips to Georgetown (12/15) and Rutgers (12/20), as the Hawks are 13-4 ATS in the underdog role since the start of last season.


Ohio Bobcats (5-3 SU, 6-1 ATS)


The Bobcats haven’t exactly played a difficult schedule, beating Tennessee State, Florida Gulf Coast, and Marshall at home. Regardless of the strength of schedule, Ohio has covered as double-digit underdogs against Tulsa and Florida State, but has yet to pick up a victory when receiving points. Ohio is 4-0 ATS in the favorite role, as the Bobcats won’t be playing in a lined contest until December 30 against Cal-Riverside, the final game before Mid-American Conference play.


South Dakota State Jackrabbits (9-1 SU, 7-0 ATS)


If you follow Summit League basketball, it’s not a big shock to see South Dakota State on this list. The Jackrabbits closed out last season with an 18-6 ATS record, stretching their mark against the number to 25-6 the past 31 trips to the court. SDSU has a pair of road victories over schools from major conferences (TCU and Minnesota), while winning three times as a home favorite. The Jackrabbits hit the road for three games, starting Tuesday in a winnable contest at Texas Tech.


UT-Arlington Mavericks (8-2 SU, 8-1 ATS)


A mid-major school that has made plenty of noise through the first month resides in Arlington, Texas. The Mavericks have already pulled off road victories at Ohio State and Memphis as double-digit underdogs, while cashing in a close loss at Texas. UTA is a perfect 4-0 SU/ATS record in the favorite role, including recent home blowouts of North Texas and Bradley. The Mavericks begin Sun Belt play later this month by hosting Georgia State and Georgia Southern, as UTA went 1-3 SU and 0-4 ATS against those schools last season.

TUESDAY'S CBB PREVIEWS


Preview: Spartans (4-5) at Bearcats (8-2)
Date: December 15, 2015 7:00 PM EDT

A disheartening loss to its crosstown rival ended up having no effect on Cincinnati's spot in the Top 25.


The No. 23 Bearcats' next two games give them a much-needed chance to bounce back and tune up for their next big matchup.


The first of those comes Tuesday night against visiting Norfolk State in the teams' first meeting.


Cincinnati (8-2) fell behind then-No. 12 Xavier by 18 in the first half Saturday and went on to a 65-55 loss, its third straight in the series. The Bearcats shot 40.4 percent and were 7 of 26 from 3-point range, struggling against Xavier's 1-3-1 zone defense.


'In the first half, we were just lazy on the defensive end, getting back in transition,' said guard Troy Caupain, who had 10 points and six assists but went 3 of 10 from the field. 'They had a lot of transition baskets and were getting to the glass.'


Cincinnati scored the first 10 points after the break to cut the Musketeers' lead to six, but too much went wrong for the Bearcats, who committed 16 turnovers and forced only 10. Xavier shot 48.2 percent and 40.0 from beyond the arc.


"Ultimately, you're never going to beat a team that's going to be ranked in the top 10, you're not going to beat a team like that with 16 turnovers," coach Mick Cronin told the team's official website. "You're just not going to have any chance to win. So really, any other question about strategy is a moot point. And proof of that is their best player (Trevon Bluiett) scored three points and they win.


"They're in control of most of the game. That's because of our turnovers. We didn't give ourselves a chance."


Despite that defeat and a home loss to Butler on Dec. 2, Cincinnati remained in the poll Monday, maintaining its ranking from last week.


The Bearcats likely won't enjoy the same fate if they lose to Norfolk State (4-5) or VCU on Saturday. Cincinnati needs the two games to sharpen up, as a showdown with No. 5 Iowa State on Dec. 22 looms after these contests.


The Spartans are coming off an 81-60 loss at Northern Kentucky - just outside Cincinnati - on Sunday. Norfolk State allowed the Norse to shoot 57.4 percent from the field - 11 of 20 from 3-point range - while making 34.5 percent themselves.


Guard Jeff Short, averaging a team-high 17.2 points, was limited to 10 on 4-of-15 shooting. D'Shon Taylor went 0 for 4 and scored four points - 10 below his average - while Charles Oliver shot 2 of 9.


Norfolk State, which had won three in a row, has dropped five straight to ranked opponents and 13 in a row on the road against Top 25 teams since the start of the 2000-01 season.


The Spartans will be playing the third in a stretch of seven straight on the road. They don't play at home again until Jan. 5.

Preview: Eagles (3-4) at Blue Devils (8-1)
Date: December 15, 2015 7:00 PM EDT

Duke got some much-needed time off for exams after opening with nine games in 23 days that saw the team play in Durham, Chicago and New York.


The seventh-ranked Blue Devils have another trip to the Big Apple scheduled this week, but they first host another well-rested team in Georgia Southern on Tuesday night.


Duke (8-1) started with games on consecutive days at home as part of the 2K Classic before heading to Chicago and suffering a 74-63 loss to then-No. 2 Kentucky in the State Farm Champions Classic.


The 2K Classic then shifted to Madison Square Garden, where the Blue Devils beat VCU and Georgetown to win the title before returning home for four straight games prior to getting a break for exams.


'The early part of the season has given us an opportunity to put our team in some very tough situations,' coach Mike Krzyzewski said. 'Travel, tough opponents, exam period. ... So when we started, we hit the ground running.'


All that action caught up to Duke on Dec. 5 as it shot a season low-tying 40.7 percent, but it held Buffalo to 33.3 percent from the field in an 82-59 victory.


'We looked tired offensively in the first half. We were just chaotic,' Krzyzewski said. 'We looked tired ... and they worked themselves through it.'


Freshman Brandon Ingram had 23 points after scoring a season-best 24 in the previous win over Indiana in The ACC/Big Ten Challenge, and leading scorer Grayson Allen added 22.


'This was a long, extended stretch of quick turnarounds, of learning about one team and the next day having to learn about another group - always being locked in, mentally as well as physically,' senior forward Amile Jefferson said.


The opening stretch has appeared to taken a toll on Jefferson, who is out indefinitely with a right foot injury. He has started each game while averaging 11.4 points and a team-best 10.3 rebounds.


Georgia Southern (3-4) has been off even longer, last playing Dec. 2 when it lost 76-67 at Savannah State to end a two-game winning streak in which it averaged 94.0 points.


Mike Hughes hit a late 3-pointer and top scorer Tookie Brown made a pair of free throws with 51 seconds left to pull Georgia Southern within two, but Savannah State hit a 3-pointer with 25 seconds remaining to seal the win.


'I would've loved for our guys to have been able to pull this one out, but it was a tough environment, tough situation,' coach Mark Byington said. 'We're the youngest team in the country, and so it's hard to put these guys in this but when you put them in a situation like this, they're going to learn from it.'


The next environment is even tougher for the Eagles as Duke has won 122 consecutive nonconference home games by an average of 26.8 points since the start of the 2000-01 season.


The Blue Devils have won both meetings in this series, with the last coming in November 2008 at Cameron Indoor Stadium. That was Georgia Southern's last matchup with a Top 25 team, and the Eagles are 1-10 all-time against ranked squads with the win coming over Southern Illinois in 1976.


Following this game, Duke returns to MSG to face Utah on Saturday in the Ameritas Insurance Classic.

Preview: Ragin Cajuns (3-4) at Bruins (7-3)
Date: December 15, 2015 9:00 PM EDT

UCLA's stunning season-opening loss at home to Monmouth is a distant memory now.


The No. 22 Bruins have used a four-game win streak to return to prominence as they host high-scoring Louisiana-Lafayette on Tuesday night.


UCLA (7-3) started in dismal fashion with an 84-81 overtime defeat to Monmouth on Nov. 13 for its second consecutive nonconference home loss after 21 straight wins.


The uneven start continued with losses to then-No. 5 Kansas and Wake Forest in the Maui Invitational, but Steve Alford's team made a statement with an 87-77 victory over then-No. 1 Kentucky on Dec. 3.


While that victory may be more impressive, the Bruins' 71-66 win at then-No. 20 Gonzaga on Saturday may have been more crucial to the team's psyche. The Bulldogs snapped UCLA's home nonconference win streak last season before eliminating the Bruins from the NCAA Tournament.


"It was very important," forward Tony Parker said. "They beat us twice last year, once in the Sweet 16, so it was a big win for our program, it was a big one for coach Alford."


Isaac Hamilton scored 20 points and Parker added 16 for the Bruins, who held the Bulldogs to 41.0 percent shooting. Hamilton made 8 of 15 shots for the second straight game after he scored 21 in an 83-76 win over Long Beach State on Dec. 6.


"Whenever you hit your first two shots, it kind of gives you an extra boost," Hamilton said. "And from then on, I just kept attacking, trying to create for my teammates and make sure we get the win. The more aggressive I am, the more plays I feel I can make and help this team get the victory."


The Bruins scheduled Louisiana-Lafayette (3-4) partly because the Ragin' Cajuns were picked to win the Sun Belt in the preseason by the league's coaches. Louisiana-Lafayette features power forward Shawn Long, the preseason conference player of the year whose 56 double-doubles since the start of 2012-13 are the most in the nation.


The Ragin' Cajuns are one of the highest scoring teams in Division I, averaging 90.0 points.


There is concern for them, however, since they are 0-4 on the road and have already dropped their conference opener. They have let four opponents shoot at least 50.0 percent, allowing Louisiana Tech to connect at 50.8 in a 91-79 loss Saturday.


Long was held to nine points, failing to score in double digits for the second time in his last 32 games. He grabbed 14 rebounds and is among the nation's leaders with 11.6 per game.


The Ragin' Cajuns blew a 10-point lead with 14:18 left.


Louisiana-Lafayette has struggled to defend the 3-point arc, allowing opponents to shoot 39.3 percent. That's a concern as the Ragin' Cajuns try to contain junior Bryce Alford, the coach's son who is known for his long-range proficiency but is shooting a career-worst 34.0 percent on 3-pointers.

Gonzaga among 4 teams to drop from AP Top 25
December 14, 2015


Gonzaga is out of The Associated Press Top 25 men's basketball poll for the first time since February 2014, a run of 24 consecutive polls.


The Bulldogs, who lost to UCLA last week to drop to 6-3, were tied for the eighth-longest current streak. Duke has the longest current streak at 161 weeks, starting with the preseason poll of 2007-08. Kansas is the only other school with a streak in triple figures at 129.


---


ALSO GONE


Three other schools - Vanderbilt, Oregon and Utah - also dropped out of the rankings this week.


Vanderbilt, which lost to Dayton last week, fell from 21st. The Commodores were ranked every week this season reaching as high as 16th.


Oregon, which lost to Boise State, was 24th and saw a four-week stretch of being ranked end.


Utah was No. 16 in the preseason poll and the first regular-season Top 25. The Utes dropped out for two weeks before returning at No. 25 last week, but they lost to Wichita State last week and fell out of the rankings.


---


WELCOME ABOARD


Two of the four new teams in this week's poll - George Washington and UCLA - are ranked for the first time this season.


George Washington (9-1) moves in at No. 21, the Colonials' first poll appearance since 2005-06 when they were ranked all season, reaching as high as No. 6. Their only loss this season was to Cincinnati and they won three straight since.


UCLA (7-3) has won four straight games since returning from the Maui Invitational, including wins over then-No. 1 Kentucky and Gonzaga. The Bruins were ranked for one week last season.


Texas A&M and UConn, who were both ranked earlier in the season, moved in at Nos. 24 and 25.


---


HIGH MARKS


Oklahoma, which beat then-No. 9 Villanova 78-55 at Pearl Harbor last week, is No. 3 for the first time since February 2009.


Xavier, coming off its intra-city win over Cincinnati, cracked the top 10 for the first since December 2011, when the Musketeers were No. 8.


---


ON TOP


This is Michigan State's ninth week as the No. 1 team, breaking a tie with St. John's and West Virginia for 26th place all-time. Next on the list is Houston, which was No. 1 for 11 weeks. The last season the Cougars were No. 1 was 1982-83.


---


CONFERENCE CALL


The Big 12 has five teams in this week's poll, as many as the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Big East has four ranked teams while the Big Ten has three. The Pac-12 and American Athletic Conference have two each.


George Washington is the first team from the Atlantic 10 to be ranked this season.


---


UPS & DOWNS


Oklahoma had the week's biggest jump in the poll. The biggest drop was North Carolina's tumble from third to 11th after losing 84-82 at Texas.


---


DOUBLE-RANKED


There are four games between ranked teams this week and they are all on Saturday: No. 22 UCLA faces No. 11 North Carolina in Brooklyn; No. 12 Villanova is at No. 8 Virginia; No. 17 Butler meets No. 9 Purdue in Indianapolis; No. 16 Baylor visits No. 24 Texas A&M.


---


This story has been corrected to show that the Big 12 has five teams ranked, not six.
