Top 25 Betting Recap
January 24, 2016




The Week of Jan. 18-24 of the 2015-16 NCAA Basketball betting season is in the books, and today, we're going to be taking a look at each of the Top 25 teams in the rankings and see how they did from an ATS perspective in this go around this past week.


(Results in parentheses represent SU Result/ATS Result)

1) Oklahoma (1-1 SU/1-1 ATS)
The Sooners were knocked from the top perch after their road loss at Iowa State Monday, 82-77. They were able to rebound in another difficult environment, winning at Baylor, to snap a four-game non-cover skid. On Tuesday, the Sooners will face Texas Tech, a team which also enters 1-4 ATS over the past five outings.


2) North Carolina (2-0 SU/0-2 ATS)
The Tar Heels will take over the top spot in the rankings after Oklahoma, Kansas, Villanova, Xavier, West Virginia, Maryland and SMU each lost at least once this week. UNC has failed to cover in three straight, and they're 2-5 ATS over the past seven, but they have won 11 straight since their last setback Dec. 12.


3) Kansas (1-1 SU/0-2 ATS)
Kansas has dropped two of their past four games overall, and they're 0-4 ATS during the span. They will face Iowa State Monday night in Ames trying to right the ship. Over the past five games the 'under' has cashed four times, and is 9-4 over the past 13 outings.


4) Villanova (1-1 SU/0-2 ATS)
The Wildcats were on a roll, but they had cold water splashed on them from Providence Sunday. The Wildcats were downed 82-76 in overtime on their home floor, and they have now failed to cover in four straight games. They'll look to get well at St. John's next Sunday, having a week to right the ship.


5) Xavier (1-1 SU/0-2 ATS)
The Musketeers have been steadily on the climb, but their roll was slowed in an 82-71 loss at home to Georgetown Tuesday despite entering as a 10-point favorite. Xavier enters the new week just 2-3 ATS over the past five games, and their defense is struggling after allowing 78.5 points per game over the past two.


6) West Virginia (1-1 SU/1-1 ATS)
Like most of the top teams, West Virginia also had to swallow the bitter pill of defeat this week. Texas came to Morgantown and won a 56-49 defensive slog, and the 'under' has cashed in four of the past five for the Mountaineers. They hung on for a four-point win at Texas Tech, earning the cover with a late bucket. West Virginia is now 4-1 ATS over the past five heading into the new week.


7) Maryland (1-1 SU/0-2 ATS)
The Terps ran into an wounded, yet still very dangerous Michigan State team Saturday to join the Top 10 losers club. Suddenly the Terps are having difficulty covering, going 1-3 ATS over the past four. The 'under' has been the play lately for Maryland, going 4-1 over the past five and 7-2 over the past nine.


8) Southern Methodist (1-1 SU/0-2 ATS)
SMU has rarely been tested this season, playing one of the easiest schedules of all Top 25 teams. However, wins are wins, and you play who is in front of you. Sunday, Temple was in front of them and the Mustangs were dumped by nine, as the last unbeaten team. SMU is now 0-2 ATS over the past two, and 2-5 ATS over the past seven.




9) Iowa (2-0 SU/1-1 ATS)
The Hawkeyes cruised to an 83-71 win over Purdue Sunday, erasing a two-point deficit at halftime. The Hawkeyes have been almost as dependable as their football team against the number, going 6-2 ATS in their past eight games. The 'over' has now hit in three in a row for Iowa, too, and they have 70 or more points in 14 straight games.


10) Texas A&M (2-0 SU/1-1 ATS)
The Aggies continue their ascent, and they'll likely find themselves inside the Top 7-8 in the upcoming week with room to continue their rise at Arkansas and home to Iowa State, another Top 25 team. Defense has been a hallmark for the Aggies, with the 'under' 4-0 in the past four and 6-2 over the past eight.


11) Michigan State (1-1 SU/1-1 ATS)
Sparty snapped an uncharacteristic three-game losing skid with a 74-65 triumph over Maryland. It also snapped a three-game non-cover slide. Things lighten up a bit with a trip to Northwestern and a home game against Rutgers.


12) Arizona (1-1 SU/1-1 ATS) The Wildcats have been playing well at home, but unfortunately all games cannot be played on their home court. If Arizona is going to make noise in the NCAA Tournament, they will need to find how to win away from home. A loss at California Saturday meant the Wildcats slipped to 1-3 SU/ATS in their past four road outings.


13) Virginia (2-0 SU/0-2 ATS)
After a rough 1-3 SU stretch from Jan. 4-17, the Hoos rebounded with two wins, including a 69-62 triumph against a previously hot Clemson team. Still, UVA is 1-5 ATS over the past six games, and 2-7 ATS over the past nine. Virginia hits the road for two road games at Wake Forest and at Louisville, two teams also lukewarm against the number.


14) Baylor (1-1 SU/2-0 ATS)
The Bears came up short in their bid to down top-ranked Oklahoma, and they failed to cover in each of their games this week. Baylor has been very dependable for total bettors, as the 'over' hit in each game and is 5-2 in their past seven outings heading into Wednesday's road game at Oklahoma State.


15) Miami-Florida (2-0 SU/0-1-1 ATS)
After a difficult week the Hurricanes bounced back by dropping a pair of ACC lightweights, but they are still struggling against the number. Miami is now 0-3-1 ATS over the past four games after starting the season 10-3 ATS in their first 13 outings.


16) Providence (1-0 SU/1-0 ATS)
The Friars are back in business, winning and covering each of their games following a disappointing 82-71 loss to Seton Hall Jan. 16. Providence scored an 82-76 overtime win as a 12 1/2-point underdog Sunday, a win which cashed +700 on the moneyline. Providence is now a sparkling 9-0 ATS in their past nine road games. Their next road game will be at Georgetown Jan. 30.


17) Louisville (2-0 SU/1-1 ATS)
The Cardinals negotiated through potential pitfalls against Florida State and at Georgia Tech, but they failed to cover on the road against the Yellow Jackets Saturday to slip to 2-6 ATS over the past eight games. Louisville is 2-2 SU and 0-4 ATS in their past four games dating last to a cover Dec. 2 at Michigan State. Unfortunately for the Cards they're in Blacksburg to face Virginia Tech Wednesday.


18) Butler (0-2 SU/0-2 ATS)
Butler's train continues to careen off the tracks, as they were dropped in Providence and Creighton to slip to 2-5 SU and 1-6 ATS over the past seven games. They're sure to slip from the Top 25 rankings, but an upcoming favorable schedule can get the ship righted in a hurry.


19) Iowa State (2-0 SU/2-0 ATS)
The Cyclones dumped the top-ranked Sooners in Ames earlier in the week, and followed it up with a road win and cover at Texas Christian, moving to 3-0 SU/ATS in three games since an overtime loss at Texas Jan. 12. Defense is back for the Cyclones, as they have allowed just 66.7 points per game and the result has been three straight unders.


20) Duke (1-1 SU/1-1 ATS)
The Blue Devils put the brakes on a three-game slide with a win at North Carolina State, 88-78. If you like to keep a journal of results for future wagers, that's now 9-for-9 on the 'over' for Duke in games at N.C. State. The Blue Devils are down, but certainly not out, and they have up their profile with road wins at Miami and Georgia Tech this week.


21) Southern California (0-2 SU/0-2 ATS)
Pac-12 teams continue to have trouble winning on the road. USC went 0-fer-the State of Oregon with an eight-point loss at Oregon Thursday, and a 15-point blowout loss at Oregon State Sunday against a Beavers team which was just 5-14 ATS in their past 19 conference tilts. One thing which bettors have come to love about USC - high-scoring games. Over the past eight outings the 'over' is 7-1.


22) Purdue (2-1 SU/1-2 ATS)
The Boilermakers lost their second road game in their past three tries in an 83-71 setback at Iowa, and they have failed to cover each of their past two overall. However, the 'over' is 5-1 in the past six games for the Boilermakers.


23) Kentucky (2-0 SU/2-0 ATS)
Kentucky rebounded with a pair of victories and covers, and more concentration at the defensive end was the key to their success. They're allowing just 66.0 PPG over the past three outings, and it's no surprise the 'under' is 3-0 in those games and 5-2 over the past seven.


24) South Carolina (1-1 SU/1-1 ATS)
The Gamecocks were one of the most dependable plays earlier this season, opening 11-1 ATS in their first 12 games. However, after getting handled in Knoxville by Tennessee, the Gamecocks slipped to 2-2 SU and 1-3 ATS over the past four outings. South Carolina's woes are the result of a slipping defense, which allowed 70-plus points just four times in their first 15 games, but 72 or more points in each of their past four outings.


25) Indiana (2-0 SU/2-0 ATS)
Indiana creamed Northwestern 89-57 for a second straight cover as a double-digit favorite, and the 'over' is 2-0 after a 4-0 'under' run. The Hoosiers have won 12 straight games since Dec. 2, and they're 8-4 ATS during the impressive run.

Monday's Top Action
January 25, 2016




KANSAS JAYHAWKS (16-3, 5-2) at IOWA STATE CYCLONES (15-4, 4-3 Big 12)


Hilton Coliseum - Ames, IA
Tip-off: Monday, 9:00 p.m. ET
Sportsbook.ag Line: Iowa State -2, Total: 161.5


A huge Big 12 clash takes place on Monday night when Iowa State hosts Kansas.


The Jayhawks (9-7 ATS) enter this matchup with four straight ATS defeats and two consecutive SU road losses by double-digits. After falling 74-63 at West Virginia on Jan. 12, they were crushed 86-67 at 9-point home underdog Oklahoma State on week later. The Cyclones (9-6 ATS) have rattled off three straight wins (SU and ATS) since an overtime loss at Texas, but are just 3-3 ATS at home this season.


These conference foes have met three times in each of the past three seasons, with Kansas winning the first five matchups (4-1 ATS), and Iowa State taking three of the past four meetings (SU and ATS), including a 70-66 upset in the Big 12 Tournament Championship last season. Both teams provide plenty of reasons for bettor optimism, as the Jayhawks are 49-28 ATS versus good passing teams (16+ APG) after 15+ games since 1997, and head coach Bill Self is 15-5 ATS versus explosive offenses (84+ PPG) after 15+ games in this same timeframe. The Cyclones are 25-4 ATS as a home favorite of 3 points or less (or pick) since 1997, and are 13-5 ATS versus good teams (4+ PPG margin) after 15+ games in the past two seasons. There are no significant injuries for either team on Monday.


Kansas has a high-powered offense that generates 84.3 PPG (12th in nation) on 48.5% FG (22nd in D-I) and 43.6% threes (4th in nation). However, the offense has really slumped in the past five games with a mere 69.0 PPG on 41.8% FG. The Jayhawks are still very efficient with 16.8 APG (25th in D-I) and only 11.7 TOPG (67th in nation), which equals a stellar 1.44 Ast/TO ratio (29th in D-I).


The defense allows a pedestrian 68.4 PPG (117th in nation), but limits opponents to 39.9% FG (41st in D-I) despite a subpar 34.2% threes (170th in nation). The team's 7.6 steals per game (56th in D-I) and 14.2 forced turnovers per game (88th in nation) also help keep opponent scores low. Rebounding is also strong at +5.5 RPG (45th in D-I), but the team has produced only 11.2 offensive RPG (157th in nation).


Kansas has four main scorers it relies on with F Perry Ellis (16.3 PPG, 6.6 RPG), G Wayne Selden Jr. (14.7 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 2.8 APG), G Frank Mason III (13.2 PPG, 4.8 APG, 4.8 RPG, 1.6 SPG) and G Devonte' Graham (10.7 PPG, 3.7 APG, 1.5 SPG). The senior Ellis is knocking down 50% FG and 47% threes this season, and has at least 10 points in 14 straight games, which includes 26 on Saturday. Ellis had 18.0 PPG and 8.5 RPG in two regular-season meetings with the Cyclones last year, but scored only seven points on 2-of-10 FG in the conference finals loss.


Selden has been scorching from long range this season in making 49% threes (8th in nation), which is way up from his 37% clip from last season. The junior is coming off a huge 19-point, 5-rebound performance in Saturday's win versus Texas, and had little trouble scoring versus Iowa State last season with 19.0 PPG on 57% FG (8-of-15 threes) in the three meetings. The junior Mason has scored in double-figures in nine straight games (13.0 PPG), but has been ice-cold over the past three contests with a 28% FG clip (10-of-36). Graham has been outstanding in running the offense with a 3.5 Assist/Turnover ratio this season (15th in nation), and contributed 14 points and six assists on Saturday.


Iowa State is also an explosive offensive squad with 84.4 PPG (11th in nation) on a blistering 50.2% FG (6th in D-I) and solid 36.6% threes (93rd in nation). This is an average foul-shooting team at 70.5% FT (139th in D-I) that rarely gets to the line with a mere 308 free-throw attempts (330th in nation). However, the team has a strong 1.48 Ast/TO ratio (23rd in D-I) because it usually makes the extra pass (16.6 APG, 29th in nation) and rarely turns the ball over (11.3 TOPG, 42nd in D-I).


Iowa State does not have a very tough defense, allowing 73.7 PPG (223rd in nation) on 42.8% FG (156th in D-I) and 35.6% threes (245th in nation), but it stays out of foul trouble with the fewest amount of personal fouls in D-I (14.7 per game). The team is strong on the defensive glass (28.7 Def. RPG, 23rd in nation), but grabs only 9.7 offensive RPG (264th in D-I).


Two upperclassmen carry this program, senior F Georges Niang (19.3 PPG, 2nd in Big 12) and junior PG Monte Morris, whose stellar 4.5 Ast/TO ratio ranks seventh in the nation. The burly 6-foot-8 Niang rarely takes a bad shot, as evidenced by his 53% FG, 40% threes and 84% FT this season. He also grabs 6.4 RPG and dishes out 3.2 APG, and has a current streak of 28 straight double-figure scoring games dating to last season. However, Niang coming off a season-low 11 points (4-of-12 FG) in Saturday's win where he committed a troubling seven turnovers. Niang averaged 19.3 PPG (7-of-15 threes) in three meetings with Kansas last season, and will be counted on to produce a similar output on Monday.


Morris has a career-high 15.2 PPG and 4.0 RPG this season, while ranking 11th in the nation in assists (6.8 APG) and 30th in steals (2.11 SPG). He has committed more than three turnovers just once in 89 career games (4 TO last season at Kansas), and recorded a double-double of 11 points and 10 assists, along with seven rebounds, in the home win over the Jayhawks last season.


Senior F/C Jameel McKay (13.2 PPG, 9.3 RPG) has five double-doubles this season and came close to adding to that total in both games last week. After tallying eight points and 13 rebounds versus then-No. 1 Oklahoma, he followed that with eight points and 10 boards in Saturday's win. He is shooting 59% from the floor this season (29th in nation) and averaged 10.0 PPG on 68% FG (13-of-19) versus the Jayhawks last season.


Junior G Matt Thomas (10.0 PPG, 5.1 RPG) is the school's best long-range shooter, as he is making 42% of his threes. Thomas has scored at least 11 points in four straight games, including 15 points on 5-of-8 FG (3-of-4 threes) in Saturday's win at TCU. Senior F Abdel Nader (12.7 PPG, 5.6 RPG) was a big reason his team upset the Sooners last week with 20 points, but struggled on Saturday with more turnovers (five) than rebounds (four) in his 30 minutes of action.

Big Monday Tip Sheet
January 24, 2016


The final Monday in January offers-up a pair of key showdowns in both the ACC and the Big 12 for college hoops bettors as part of ESPN’s Big Monday slate. In the opener, the struggling Duke Blue Devils will try and return to form with a trip to South Florida to face the nationally ranked Miami Hurricanes in a 7 p.m. (ET) tip. The second game is a matchup between the Kansas Jayhawks and the Iowa State Cyclones in a 9 p.m. start at Hilton Coliseum.

No. 20 Duke Blue Devils at No. 15 Miami Hurricanes (7 p.m. ESPN)


Betting Point-spread: Miami -2 ½


Betting Matchup


The Blue Devils got a much needed victory with their 88-78 win against NC State this past Saturday as 4 ½-point road favorites. This followed a three-game losing streak both straight-up and against the spread that included losses to Notre Dame and Syracuse as healthy home favorites. The total went OVER the 148 ½-point closing line in Saturday’s win and it has now gone OVER in eight of their last 11 games.


In the win against the Wolfpack, Duke got a huge effort from sophomore guard Grayson Allen (28 points) and freshman guard Brandon Ingram (25 points) on the scoreboard and it shot a blazing 54.2 percent from the field. The Blue Devils are ranked fifth in the nation in scoring with 85.7 points per game and they are hitting 48 percent of their shots from the floor.


Miami had little trouble getting past Wake Forest this past Saturday in a 77-63 romp that ended as a PUSH. The win improved its record to 4-2 SU in conference play, but it is still a costly 2-3-1 ATS. The total has stayed UNDER in five of those six games. The Hurricanes are a profitable 6-2-1 ATS this season on their home court.


Sophomore guard Ja’Quan Newton came off the bench to score a game-high 18 points in Saturday’s win. The Hurricanes’ top scorer this season has been senior guard Sheldon McClellan with 16 PPG. He added 14 points in the winning effort but Miami, as a team, shot just 35.9 percent from the field while going 7-for-20 from three-point range. On the year, the Hurricanes are averaging 79.2 PPG with a 47.8 field goal percentage.

Betting Trends


The Blue Devils are 12-4-1 ATS in their last 17 games following an ATS win, but they are just 4-13-1 ATS in their last 18 games played on Monday. The total has gone OVER in six of their last eight road games.


The Hurricanes have covered ATS in five of their last seven home games and they are 20-8-1 ATS in their last 29 games following a SU win. The total has stayed UNDER in their last four home games.


Head-to-head in this matchup, the road team is 8-1-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings and it has gone 4-2 SU in the last six games. The total has gone OVER in six of Duke’s last seven road games against Miami.


No. 3 Kansas Jayhawks at No. 19 Iowa State Cyclones (9 p.m. ESPN)


Betting Point-spread: Iowa State -1


Betting Matchup


The Jayhawks bounced-back from a bad 86-67 loss to Oklahoma State as nine-point road favorites with Saturday’s 76-67 victory against Texas. They failed to cover as 12 ½-point home favorites in that win and they are just 1-5 ATS in their last six games. The total ended as a PUSH on a 143-point line against the Longhorns after staying UNDER in three of their previous four games.


Senior forward Perry Ellis has been the team’s leading scorer all season long with 16.3 PPG and he rose to the occasion against Texas with a game-high 26 points. Kansas also got a big effort from junior guard Wayne Selden Jr. with 19 points while going 4-for-8 from three-point range. The Jayhawks are averaging 84 points a game and shooting 48.5 percent from the field; however their scoring average has dropped to just 69 points over their last five games.


Iowa State has won its last three games both SU and ATS following Saturday’s 73-60 victory against TCU as a nine-point road favorite. The Cyclones are now 4-3 (SU and ATS) in Big 12 play and the total has stayed UNDER in their last three wins. One of those victories came against Oklahoma on Jan. 18 in an 82-77 win as two-point home favorites.


Cyclones’ senior forward Georges Niang has been the leading scorer this season with 19.3 PPG. While he only had 11 points in the win against TCU, he has eclipsed this average in four of his first seven conference games. Iowa State is ranked 11th in the nation in scoring with 84.4 PPG and it is shooting an effective 50.2 percent from the field. Junior forward Jameel McKay is the team’s leading rebounder with 9.3 a game as part of the Cyclones’ 38 rebounds a game.

Betting Trends


The Jayhawks have failed to cover in their last four games against a team with a SU winning record and they are 1-2 ATS in their last three road games. The total has gone OVER in five of their last six games played on a Monday.


The Cyclones are 8-3-1 ATS in their 12 games against the Big 12, but they are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last six home games. The total has stayed UNDER in nine of their last 13 home games.


Iowa State is 3-1 both SU and ATS in the last four meetings and the total has gone OVER in seven of the last nine games between these two conference foes.

Armadillo: Monday's six-pack


Top six relief pitchers in saves LY.......


6) Craig Kimbrel, SD-- 39


5) Huston Street, LAA-- 40


4) Brad Boxberger, TB-- 41


3) Jeurys Familia, NYM-- 43


2) Trevor Rosenthal, StL-- 48


1) Mark Melancon, Pitt-- 51


**********


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


13) Broncos 20, Patriots 18-- Peyton Manning is 6-9 in his first playoff game of the year, 5-1 in his second one. His commercials will be all over TV long after we are dead and buried. Would be interesting to see his tax returns.


This will be Denver's 8th Super Bowl, under five different head coaches.


12) Panthers 49, Cardinals 15-- Carolina gets to its second Super Bowl; its coach the last time was John Fox, who was Denver's head coach until he was replaced by Gary Kubiak two years ago. Panthers are listed as a 4-point favorite.


To nitwit owners who fire coaches every two years: Ron Rivera was 13-19 in his first two years with the Panthers. Some teams would've fired him then.


11) Sunday's highlight for me was having dinner at a bar, watching the Carolina game and listening to three women to my right talking about how one of their friends married a guy, while he was still in jail. None of my business, but it begs the question......


What do you get the happy couple as a wedding present?


10) Temple 89, SMU 80-- Last unbeaten goes down. Owls made a season-high 14 3's in a game pushed back a day by snow. Question for Mustangs now is their motivation for the rest of the regular season, since there is no postseason for them.


9) Providence 82, Villanova 76 OT-- Rough day to be favored in Philly, as Wildcats got beat by Friars in the best game of the day. Having been in Philly a few times, I have no idea where they put 22 inches of snow, which they had this weekend.


8) Carolina Panthers' owner Jerry Richardson is first owner since George Halas who also played in the NFL; he has been the recipient of a heart transplant, too.


7) San Diego State Aztecs' hoop team is 19-2 in its last 21 overtime games.


6) Bad Beat of Weekend, Month, Year???-- Northern Kentucky 82, Ill-Chicago 69, in overtime. UIC was a 12.5-point underdog; you get 12.5 points and game goes to OT, you're not happy but you figure you still will win- not so fast. Flames are still winless against D-I teams this season.


5) I swear I heard this right on Golf Channel last night: Jordan Spieth gets $1.3M just for showing up and playing at the Malaysian Open this coming week. Not $1.3M if he wins, $1.3M just for showing up. Oy.


4) Since 2000, Utah State's basketball team has the 6th-best winning %age in the whole country-- never would've guessed that.


3) If you care about such things, in the United Arab Emirates, the weekend is Friday, Saturday, not Saturday./Sunday. Go figure.


2) Cleveland Cavaliers were 97-215 in four years that Lebron James was in Miami; they're 83-41 since he came back.


1) Was glad that ESPN showed Stephen Curry 90 minutes before his game Friday night, doing ballhandling drills and practicing his craft. Thats why he is so good, he works his ass off at it. Kids need to realize that practicing skills improves your game more than playing in actual games does.

Preview: Cavaliers (15-4) at Demon Deacons (10-9)
Date: January 26, 2016 7:00 PM EDT

Double-digit wins have been absent for Virginia since its ACC opener, but there's a good chance of its next opponent loosening those reins.


Wake Forest enters Tuesday night's meeting in Winston-Salem having lost its last three games by wide margins, but even those are made to look reasonable when compared to the last contest between the Cavaliers and Demon Deacons.


No. 11 Virginia (15-4, 4-3) has won the last three meetings, but a 70-34 victory in Winston-Salem on Feb. 25 was in its own category. The Demon Deacons made 12 field goals, shooting 21.8 percent and going 4 of 22 from 3-point range for one of their worst offensive games in school history.


Anthony Gill averaged 15.0 points in the two meetings last season and also had 16 on 7-of-11 shooting in Virginia's 73-65 home win over Syracuse on Sunday. Malcolm Brogdon had 21 and London Perrantes made 4 of 8 from 3-point range on his way to 16 points as the Cavaliers shot 56.8 percent.


The backcourt duo of Brogdon and Perrantes continues to flourish. Brogdon leads the team with 17.0 points per game, which is up from 14.0 last season as he's on pace for the best shooting season of his career. Perrantes is shooting 54.9 percent from long range, bumping his 6.4-point scoring average from last season to 11.9. He's averaged 14.8 in his last six.


"It's evolved as much, I think, as chemistry between two players can," Brogdon told the school's official website.


Syracuse was able to keep it close by hitting 13 of 30 from 3-point range, but Virginia coach Tony Bennett wasn't necessarily faulting his team's perimeter defense.


"If guys are hitting tough, contested deep 3s, sometimes you have to take your hat off to them," Bennett said.


Even so, it might be part of the reason the Cavaliers have had tight games lately. They opened conference play with a 77-66 home win over Notre Dame and limited it to 7 of 22 from long range as part of an opponent 3-point percentage at 32.9 over their 12-1 start. Since, Virginia is 3-3 and teams are making 41.3.


All of those losses have come on the road, and Virginia is in danger of its first four-game road skid since 2012-13.


For Wake Forest (10-9, 1-6), this is the latest in a stretch of difficult games as part of one of the nation's most demanding schedules. It's the school's third straight top-15 opponent and part of a four-game stretch against ranked teams. The Demon Deacons have already played seven ranked foes with a Nov. 23 win over then-No. 13 Indiana as their only victory. They last played more than eight ranked teams in a season in 2005-06.


Saturday's 77-63 loss to No. 15 Miami followed Wednesday's 83-68 defeat at No. 2 North Carolina. Wake has dropped seven of nine and is in danger of losing five straight for the first time since a seven-game slide in 2013-14.


It's dropped its last three games by an average of 19.0 points while shooting 37.9 percent and 17.9 from 3-point range.


"We have to be much better to win," coach Danny Manning said. "We know that the league that we play in, night in and night out, it's going to be a beast."


Manning could use more out of Codi Miller-McIntyre. The senior guard, who missed the first eight games with a broken foot after leading Wake with 14.5 points per game last season, was held scoreless against Miami and is averaging 4.0 points on 4-of-18 shooting in the last three. His scoring average has dipped to 7.8.


Top scorer Devin Thomas has been limited to 12.7 points on 46.9 percent in his last three games, which is down from 16.9 and 58.5 in his first 16.

Preview: Hoosiers (17-3) at Badgers (11-9)
Date: January 26, 2016 7:00 PM EDT

James Blackmon suffered a season-ending knee injury two days before the start of Big Ten play, at the time making the idea that Indiana could have its best conference start in 23 years pretty far-fetched.


That is exactly what's happened for the 19th-ranked Hoosiers, who have simplified their offensive game without one of their top scorers and improved defensively.


Extending their winning streak to 13 for the first time under coach Tom Crean, though, requires a victory over pesky Wisconsin on Tuesday night at the Kohl Center, where the Hoosiers haven't won since 1998.


Blackmon averaged 15.8 points in 13 games for Indiana (17-3, 7-0) before being injured in a non-contact drill in practice Dec. 28. The Hoosiers were averaging 89.1 points but giving up 70 per game during that span.


Indiana, though, has allowed fewer than that in each of its last six while securing its best start in conference play since winning its first 13 Big Ten games in 1992-93. The Hoosiers' scoring dipped to 72.3 points per game in their first three without Blackmon, but they're averaging 86.8 over the last four.


They hit a school-record 19 3-pointers in a 103-69 rout of Illinois last Tuesday before clamping down on Northwestern in Saturday's 89-57 victory. Indiana now is on the verge of winning 13 straight for the first time since 2007-08, one season before Crean arrived.


'The more simple we can make our passing and the more active we can be in our cutting, the better we are. And we're moving the ball, there's no question about that,' Crean said. 'Really the last week, we've done a good job of being on time, on target and that's so crucial.'


The Hoosiers had to rely on their defense in the first meeting with Wisconsin, though, scoring their fewest points of the season in a 59-58 win Jan. 5 while holding the Badgers to 41.3 percent.


Yogi Farrell had 19 points in that contest and hit a tiebreaking jumper with 38 seconds remaining before nailing four free throws in the final 13 seconds to help secure the victory.


"We saw what they could do at their place, and I thought we had our chances there to have a different outcome," Wisconsin interim coach Greg Gard said. "(Crean) has them playing extremely well. They're very confident offensively and they've improved defensively. Having a senior point guard as good as Yogi Farrell, he's really the engine that drives that whole machine."


Gard feels the Badgers (11-9, 3-4) have improved since the first meeting, too. They ended a three-game losing streak that began with the defeat in Bloomington with a 77-76 home win over then-No. 4 Michigan State before holding on for a 66-60 win at Penn State on Thursday.


Bronson Koenig scored a career-high 27 points against the Spartans before freshman Ethan Happ's deciding layup with 10 seconds remaining. Happ then finished with a season-high 20 points and added 11 rebounds against the Nittany Lions.


"I've talked with the team over the last few days (and told them), 'I think you're better. I think you've improved,'" Gard said. "Now is our chance to show it."


Wisconsin's five home losses are its most since going 8-8 in Madison in 1997-98, when Indiana last won at the Kohl Center. It has dropped 13 straight there since, including eight by double digits.


"The Big Ten's a tough league. Everybody can win on any given night," Hoosiers forward Collin Hartman said. "If you don't come ready to play, you're going to get beat."

Preview: Red Raiders (12-6) at Sooners (16-2)
Date: January 26, 2016 7:00 PM EDT

Already one of the nation's most prolific shooting teams, Oklahoma remains atop the AP Poll following arguably its best performance yet.


Buddy Hield and Jordan Woodard are two of the country's best 3-point shooters, but they certainly haven't looked like it against Texas Tech.


They'll attempt to change that as the high-scoring Sooners look to keep their place among the Big 12 leaders with their 17th consecutive win at the Noble Center on Tuesday night against the struggling Red Raiders.


It appeared that Oklahoma's rise to the top spot of the poll for the first time since 1990 might not last long Saturday when Hield sat on the bench with two early fouls five days after an 82-77 loss at then-No. 19 Iowa State.


Hield, though, overcame his slow start to finish with 19 points and four 3-pointers in an 82-72 win at then-No. 13 Baylor. Woodard led the way with 20 points, making five 3s while also handing out seven assists.


The Sooners, who were in a four-way tie atop the Big 12 entering the week, lead the nation with a 46.4 3-point percentage and rank in the top 10 with 85.5 points per game. They retained the AP's top spot after shooting a season-high 62 percent and sinking 16 of 28 from 3 against the Bears.


Oklahoma (16-2, 5-2), winners in 16 straight home games by an average of 17.4 points, remains on pace to set a school record by finishing with the nation's best 3-point percentage since Green Bay's 46.7 in 1991-92.


"They really shoot it well," coach Lon Kruger said after his squad had a season-high 29 assists. "The guys like to shoot â?? they spend a lot of time shooting â?? and they like passing to each other. That's a good combination."


Woodard (54.1) and Hield (51.7) rank among the national leaders from 3. Hield also sits in the top five with a Big 12-best 25.7 points per game, while Woodard is in the league's top 10 at 14.9.


However, both have had a difficult time against Texas Tech. Hield has averaged 8.7 points while missing 18 of 22 from 3-point range and Woodard has scored 6.3 and made just 2 of 8 from 3 in the past three meetings.


The Red Raiders have allowed 48.1 percent shooting - including a 43.3 mark from 3-point range - in their last four games. They let then-No. 6 West Virginia shoot 51 percent in Saturday's 80-76 home defeat.


Zach Smith had a career-high 18 points but the Red Raiders (12-6, 2-5) lost for the fifth time in six games following an 11-1 start.


"I know (Smith) will be the first one to say he'd rather have the win over what was probably his best game he's had," coach Tubby Smith said. "He logged a lot of minutes (36), but he's a guy that does so many things for us."


The Red Raiders have dropped five of the past six meetings with the Sooners. They've also lost 11 consecutive games versus ranked opponents, though the last eight have been by 10 points or fewer.


Ryan Spangler led Oklahoma with 20 points in an 81-39 win Jan. 28, 2015, in the most recent matchup in Norman. Isaiah Cousins stepped up with 22 on Feb. 21 when the Sooners pulled out a 79-75 overtime road win.

Preview: Wildcats (12-7) at Mountainers (16-3)
Date: January 26, 2016 7:00 PM EDT

Tarik Phillip's flurry of scoring allowed West Virginia to escape with a victory on the road this past weekend and keep its losing streak brief.


He also played a key role in one of his team's other hard-fought Big 12 wins this season, against Kansas State earlier this month.


The ninth-ranked Mountaineers will try for an easier game when the Wildcats visit Morgantown on Tuesday night.


Phillip scored eight of his career-high 20 points in the final minute Saturday against Texas Tech to send West Virginia to an 80-76 victory. Jaysean Paige had a team-best 22 points as the Mountaineers (16-3, 5-2) avoided a third consecutive defeat.


"That shows you how resilient we can be," Phillip said. "We knew this was a must-win for us. We had to leave everything on the floor."


Phillip had 14 points while making six of eight shots at Kansas State on Jan. 2, and none was bigger than his floater with 4.5 seconds left in double overtime in an 87-83 victory.


Paige provided 20 of his 25 points after halftime, and that was his career-best scoring performance until he had 26 in a win over then-No. 1 Kansas on Jan. 12.


Kansas State also fell in double overtime at then-No. 13 Baylor on Wednesday during its difficult start to the conference season but handled Oklahoma State 89-73 on Saturday. The Wildcats (12-7, 2-5) shot a season-best 57.7 percent after connecting at a combined 39.2 in back-to-back losses.


"I think our coaching staff did a good job trying to get them to realize there's still a lot to play for," coach Bruce Weber said. "Even though we've lost these games, if you play the right way - hard and as a team - good things will happen."


While its overall shooting percentage has been up and down, Weber's team has excelled from 3-point range in most of its last four games, connecting at a combined 41.8 percent. The Wildcats were hitting at 27.8 percent in the first 15 contests and went 3 of 19 in the loss to West Virginia.


The Mountaineers fared even worse from beyond the arc at 3 for 20 but shot 47.1 percent overall compared with Kansas State's 44.8 percent. They also had a 43-35 rebounding edge - 15-9 on the offensive glass.


Freshman guard Barry Brown had a career-high 20 points for the Wildcats but has totaled 20 while missing 16 of 24 shots in his past three games. Fellow freshman Kamau Stokes is averaging 15.0 points on 51.3 percent shooting - including a 13-of-25 mark from 3-point range - in his last four.


Stokes, who averaged 8.7 points in his first 15 games, scored 15 in the first meeting with West Virginia but went 1 of 7 from behind the arc.


The Mountaineers have won four straight over the Wildcats and edged them 76-72 in the most recent home matchup Feb. 11. Brandon Watkins led the way with a career-high 14 points off the bench while making 6 of 8 shots, and the West Virginia bench outscored Kansas State's 47-19.


Watkins has scored a combined 14 points in 18 games since that performance.

Preview: Musketeers (17-2) at Friars (17-3)
Date: January 26, 2016 8:30 PM EDT

Providence would love to kick back for a few days and relish a week that saw it take down two ranked opponents, including a top-five team on the road.


That's not the way the Big East works right now.


The 10th-ranked Friars will be right back at it Tuesday night looking for another signature victory as they welcome No. 7 Xavier for the first top-10 matchup in the history of the Dunkin' Donuts Center.


Providence (17-3, 5-2) had lost two of three - both at home to unranked teams - before hosting then-No. 18 Butler last Tuesday and closing on an 11-4 run to beat the Bulldogs 71-68.


The Friars came up with a more impressive win in Philadelphia on Sunday. Ben Bentil had 31 points and 13 rebounds while Kris Dunn finished with 13 points, 14 assists and four steals in an 82-76 overtime victory over then-No. 4 Villanova.


"This is an unbelievable win for us," coach Ed Cooley said.


No longer is Villanova the lone powerhouse it was for the first two years of the new-look Big East. Providence's jump from No. 16 on Monday gave the conference three teams in the top 10, while Creighton and Georgetown - the latter of which the Friars visit Saturday - are also 5-2 within the conference.


"This Big East Conference is a bear," Cooley said. "You have to knuckle up every game and make sure you're detailed and disciplined."


Providence is in the AP Poll for a ninth straight week for the first time since 1977-78, and this clash with Xavier (17-2, 5-2) will be the first between top-10 teams at its downtown home since the arena opened in 1972.


It's hard to find a bigger reason than Bentil, who's averaged 23 points and 9 rebounds over his last eight games. Dunn, meanwhile, is on pace to become the first college player in at least 20 years to average 17 points, 7 assists and 6 boards.


A far cry from the top-heavy production of college basketball's best 1-2 punch are the Musketeers, who are led in scoring by Trevon Bluiett (15.4 points per game) and then have five others averaging between 8.5 and 11.3.


James Farr was the latest from that deep group of secondary scorers to step up, putting up a career-high 24 with 15 rebounds Saturday in an 84-76 win over Seton Hall.


"I'm a senior, my days here are ticking down," Farr said. "I want to make sure I go out on the right note."


As impressive as Bentil and Dunn have been, Xavier should have a few edges over a Providence team that's ninth in effective field-goal percentage (48.7) in the 10-team Big East. The Friars' 3-point percentage (31.1) is 71st of the 75 major conference teams - the Musketeers are at 36.1 - and Xavier's plus-9.6 rebound differential more than doubles any other team in the league and is 7.4 ahead of Providence (plus-2.2).


The Musketeers are sixth among major conference teams in free-throw attempts (26.5 per game), and the Friars let their opponent shoot at least 24 in each of their losses.


Xavier's opponent shot above 50 percent in both of its losses.


These teams have split four meetings since the Musketeers joined the league, with each winning twice at home. Dunn had 20 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists in Providence's 69-66 overtime victory last season, while Bluiett and Jalen Reynolds had 19 apiece in Xavier's 78-69 win in Cincinnati.

**********


Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but.......


13) TV ratings for Sunday's football games were up 8% from LY, despite the NFC game being a lousy game to watch, so good for the league there.


12) Carolina LB Thomas Davis broke his arm Sunday, but expects to play in Super Bowl, reminiscent of Jack Youngblood playing in Super Bowl XIV with a broken leg he suffered in a playoff game.


11) Obscure fact of the day: This is the 11th Super Bowl in a row with at least one Texas Longhorn alum playing in it.


10) There are 33 undrafted free agents playing in the Super Bowl this year- it isn't ridiculous to suggest an NFL team's personnel guy is more important than the team's coaching staff. You have to have good players to coach.


9) In two games against Denver this season, the Patriots were 4-28 on third down. In the regular season, New England was 88-215 (40.9%) on third down.


8) Southern Mississippi needs a new football coach; Todd Monken is the new OC of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Signing Day for college football recruiting is eight days away, so this is an awkward time for that to happen.


7) Bulls' coach Fred Hoiberg is so popular in Ames, Iowa that he is known as The Mayor; he played and was later the coach at Iowa State. Hoiberg's daughter goes to rival Kansas, where she works part-time in the basketball office.


6) There are obviously 12 teams in the Pac-12; eight of their 12 basketball teams are either 5-2 or 4-3 in the standings right now. Cluttered race.


5) Washington Huskies are getting more points from their freshmen than any team in the country. Lorenzo Romar has done a tremendous rebuilding job this year- they basically blew up their team from LY and started over, and it has worked.


4) Siena's Lavon Long made all seven of his shots at Canisius Sunday; he was also 11-11 on the foul line, the first college player to put up numbers like that since 2001.


3) Reading a lot about the Lebron James/David Blatt stuff from last week, it dawns on me that Blatt might be better suited as a college coach. He seems to have a fairly big ego and in the NBA, until you've won an NBA title, coaches don't get a whole lot of respect from the players. College hoop is more of a coaches' game.


2) Sales at McDonald's were up 5.7% in the 4th quarter of 2015, the first quarter in which McDonald's offered 24-hour breakfasts. Smart idea that was long overdue.


1) Place called Glengary, WV had 42 inches of snow last weekend- thats 3.5 feet of snow!!!!! New York City had 26.5 inches, their 2nd-most ever.
