Armadillo: Monday's List of 13:Wrapping up a sports weekend…….
a sports weekend…….
13) South Carolina 77, Florida 70— Before last weekend, South Carolina’s last win in NCAA tournament was in 1973. They have some basketball tradition: Alex English, John Roche, Mike Dunleavy Sr played there, Frank Maguire coached there, but not a lot of winning.
Until this month. Now the Gamecocks are headed to the Final Four. Congrats.
12) Gamecocks are first team since VCU in 2011 to get to the Final Four without being favored in any of their first four tournament games.- VCU had to win a play-in game, so they weren’t favored in any of their first five tournament games. South Carolina was pick ‘em in their first round game with Marquette last weekend.
11) South Carolina coach Frank Martin was once both a high school teacher and a bouncer in a nightclub; imagine him getting mad at some drunk guy and tossing him out the door?
10) North Carolina 75, Kentucky 73— Mailk Monk scored 47 against Carolina in December, out in Las Vegas; he had 12 points here. This was a terrific ballgame that would’ve made a great national title game. Tough push if you had the Tar Heels -2.
9) What do you think of Chris Webber as a TV analyst? He talks more X’s and O’s than most analysts (good), he is passionate about the game (good) but he doesn’t seem to like anyone except players (not good).
Referees are competing to advance in the tournament too; I’m guessing Webber knows this, but doesn’t seem to care (not good). Coaches get fired if they lose; I mean, Bill Self is taking grief today- Webber definitely doesn’t seem to care about that (bad). I think he is mostly good; if only he would stop yelling when guys dunk— it is two points. Relax.
8) Odd coincidence that going into Saturday, Xavier/Gonzaga were tied with 27 tournament wins, most of any school that had never been in a Final Four. Now Xavier owns that unfortunate mark, with Boston College in second with 22 wins.
7) Not often the SEC wins more NCAA tournament games than bowl games. SEC is 8-4 in NCAA tournament games this year; they were 6-7 in bowl games.
6) I’m guessing the Mets have already been informed, but it hasn’t been made public how long Jeurys Familia’s suspension for domestic violence will be. He is their closer, so they would need to know to plan contingency plans.
5) Since 2006, Saints/Seahawks have drafted only two QB’s each, least in NFL.
4) This is the fifth year in a row a team seeded 7th or lower made the Final Four:
2016— Syracuse, a 10-seed lost to UNC in semi-finals
2015— Michigan State, a 7-seed, lost to Duke in semi-finals
2014— UConn, a 7-seed, beat Kentucky, an 8-seed, for the national title
2013— Wichita State, a 9-seed, lost to Louisville in semi-finals
3) This is only second time since 2009 that two or more 1-seeds made the Final Four— three of them made it in 2015, two made it this year.
2) Of the 18,797,085 brackets on ESPN.com‘s contest, only 657 had North Carolina, Oregon, Gonzaga and South Carolina in the Final Four.
1— Gonzaga is a 6.5-point favorite over South Carolina Saturday in Arizona. North Carolina is a 5-point favorite over Oregon in the nightcap.

NHL betting cheat sheet and odds: Goals a-plenty in Beantown?
Look for offensive fireworks Thursday night as the Boston Bruins look to solidify an Eastern Conference playoff berth with a home game against the Dallas Stars.
Monte Andrews' NHL cheat sheet breaks down the best NHL betting notes so you can handicap the week like a pro, including the offensively charged Boston Bruins who will host the Dallas Stars on Thursday in a traditionally high-scoring matchup.
Wounded Shark Ahead
The San Jose Sharks looked like Pacific Division champions two weeks ago - now, they're scrambling to avoid becoming a Western Conference wild-card team. The reeling Sharks carry a six-game losing streak into Tuesday's pivotal home showdown with the New York Rangers, who themselves have slipped into wild-card territory with their recent struggles. Goal-scoring has been a major issue for San Jose, which has scored just seven times during its skid while giving up a whopping 23 goals over that span. The Sharks are an incredible 8-20-9 O/U in 37 home games this season.
Goals A-Plenty in Beantown?
Look for offensive fireworks Thursday night as the Boston Bruins look to solidify an Eastern Conference playoff berth with a home game against the Dallas Stars. The Bruins enter the week as the owner of the second wild-card spot in the conference, three points clear of the Tampa Bay Lightning and just a single point behind the Toronto Maple Leafs for third place in the Atlantic. Boston and Dallas have let their offenses run wild in their previous four meetings, averaging a combined 8.8 goals while playing to the Over in each game. They've also combined for six or more goals in eight of their last 11 encounters.
Leafs Look to Clip Wings
One of the NHL's oldest rivalries has been a one-sided affair of late, and the Toronto Maple Leafs would love to keep it that way as they visit the Detroit Red Wings in an Original Six showdown on Saturday night. The Leafs continue their unexpected charge toward an East playoff spot, and have the upper hand in their recent history against Detroit with wins in four of the past five meetings - including three in a row coming into this one. Toronto, which is averaging four goals per game during the streak, hasn't won four straight games against the Red Wings since 1989.
Injury Updates
* The Dallas Stars will be without winger Patrick Sharp for the remainder of the season following surgery to repair a hip injury. It was a miserable season for Sharp, who finishes with just eight goals and 10 assists to go along with a minus-22 rating in 48 games, in which the Stars went 18-24-6 SU and 31-17-0 O/U.
* The Florida Panthers are reportedly set to welcome netminder Roberto Luongo back to action sometime this week; the veteran puck-stopper has been out since March 2 with a lower-body injury. The Panthers have struggled with Luongo on the sidelines, going just 4-7 SU while allowing four or more goals four times in his absence.
Player Notes
* Edmonton Oilers phenom Connor McDavid is doing his best to eliminate any drama related to the NHL scoring race. The 20-year-old is currently riding a seven-game point streak during which he has notched three goals and 10 assists to open up a six-point lead in the Art Ross competition. Edmonton is 6-1 SU during the streak, scoring 33 goals over that span.
* Two netminders are in the running for a goals-against average below 2.00: Blue Jackets star Sergei Bobrovsky leads the NHL with a 1.99 GAA, while Washington's Braden Holtby is close behind at 2.01. The two netminders will likely face off Sunday evening in Columbus; the Capitals own a 2-1 edge in the season series.
* Look for Tampa Bay winger Nikita Kucherov to get plenty of player-of-the-month votes, as his sizzling March has played a major role in the Lightning remaining competitive for a playoff berth. Kucherov enters the week with 12 goals and eight assists in 13 games this month, leading Tampa Bay to a terrific 8-4-1 SU mark so far in March.
Stanley Cup Futures
* Sports Interaction has four teams well ahead of the pack in Stanley Cup futures odds. The Washington Capitals continue to lead the way as a +500 favorite to hoist the Stanley Cup in June, with the Chicago Blackhawks close behind at +550 for the best odds in the West. Pittsburgh is third at +600 while Minnesota rounds out the top four at +700.
* Looking for a solid dark horse candidate? Look no further than the Anaheim Ducks, who have surged into top spot in the Pacific Division on the strength of a four-game winning streak but are still listed at +2,000 - third in the division behind San Jose (+1,600) and Edmonton (+1,800). Anaheim embarks on a four-game Canadian west coast road trip this week.
* The Bruins are the longest of longshots at this point (+4,500), but could make for an intriguing play if they can hang onto a playoff spot. And to that end, the schedule should work in their favor, as they'll play six of their final seven regular-season games at home. However, three of their final four games come against league elites Chicago, Ottawa and Washington.
Over/Under Trends
* The once-high-flying Pacific Division has been a veritable trove of Under plays this season. Not only does it house a Sharks team that has recorded just 19 Overs all season, but only two of the seven teams have recorded 30 or more Overs on the year; by comparison, every team in the Central Division has reached the 30-Over plateau entering this week.
* The Ottawa Senators have played plenty of tight, low-scoring hockey of late, rewarding Under bettors with a 1-6-1 O/U stretch they extended Saturday night with a 3-1 loss to host Montreal - its third defeat at the hands of the Canadiens in an eight-day span. Ottawa is just 28-43-3 O/U for the season, including a 12-26-1 home mark.
Look for offensive fireworks Thursday night as the Boston Bruins look to solidify an Eastern Conference playoff berth with a home game against the Dallas Stars.
Monte Andrews' NHL cheat sheet breaks down the best NHL betting notes so you can handicap the week like a pro, including the offensively charged Boston Bruins who will host the Dallas Stars on Thursday in a traditionally high-scoring matchup.
Wounded Shark Ahead
The San Jose Sharks looked like Pacific Division champions two weeks ago - now, they're scrambling to avoid becoming a Western Conference wild-card team. The reeling Sharks carry a six-game losing streak into Tuesday's pivotal home showdown with the New York Rangers, who themselves have slipped into wild-card territory with their recent struggles. Goal-scoring has been a major issue for San Jose, which has scored just seven times during its skid while giving up a whopping 23 goals over that span. The Sharks are an incredible 8-20-9 O/U in 37 home games this season.
Goals A-Plenty in Beantown?
Look for offensive fireworks Thursday night as the Boston Bruins look to solidify an Eastern Conference playoff berth with a home game against the Dallas Stars. The Bruins enter the week as the owner of the second wild-card spot in the conference, three points clear of the Tampa Bay Lightning and just a single point behind the Toronto Maple Leafs for third place in the Atlantic. Boston and Dallas have let their offenses run wild in their previous four meetings, averaging a combined 8.8 goals while playing to the Over in each game. They've also combined for six or more goals in eight of their last 11 encounters.
Leafs Look to Clip Wings
One of the NHL's oldest rivalries has been a one-sided affair of late, and the Toronto Maple Leafs would love to keep it that way as they visit the Detroit Red Wings in an Original Six showdown on Saturday night. The Leafs continue their unexpected charge toward an East playoff spot, and have the upper hand in their recent history against Detroit with wins in four of the past five meetings - including three in a row coming into this one. Toronto, which is averaging four goals per game during the streak, hasn't won four straight games against the Red Wings since 1989.

Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack
Odds to win National League MVP this season:
12-5— Mike Trout
7-2— Manny Machado
4-1— Mookie Betts
8-1— Jose Altuve, Josh Donaldson
10-1— Miguel Cabrera
15-1— Robinson Cano
**********
Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but……..
13) NFL approved Raiders’ move to Las Vegas Monday; they’ll start playing in the desert in 2019, after playing in Oakland this coming year- where they’ll play in 2018 is still unclear.
This is sad for people in Oakland- the Warriors are moving to San Francisco soon, the A’s are in limbo stadium-wise. Lot of history in that Oakland Coliseum, lot of winning, but these days, money means more than sentiment, which is too bad.
12) Prediction: Raiders’ new stadium will make UNLV’s athletic program a huge winner, with Rebels eventually moving up to a Power 5 league, maybe partnering with BYU as the western tier of the Big X Conference- they need two more teams so they can have a conference championship game.
11) Back in late November, South Carolina was 300-1 to win the national title; they were still 300-1 on March 9. Now they’re 15-2.
10) In John Calipari’s first seven years at Kentucky, 28 of 56 guys who played for him were drafted by the NBA.
9) I’m not fond of people posting pics on the Interweb of kids crying in the losing locker room, like was done from the Kentucky locker room Sunday. There should be some limit to what we see; there should be some semblance of privacy in the sanctity of the locker room. There is a media center for interviews with players/coaches; thats all the media contact that is needed.
8) Former major leaguer Joe Carter, who hit the walk-off homer for the Blue Jays as they won the 1993 World Series, was on TV at a spring training game Sunday. Carter has three sisters and three nieces who are all riders on the pro rodeo circuit- one of the sisters is 65 years old!!!
7) Next time they have this World Baseball Classic, I’d like to see the Cuban major leaguers play for Cuba’s team- would make the tournament a lot better. Not sure that is possible politically, but would be fun to see it happen.
6) Quinnipiac hired Villanova assistant coach Baker Dunleavy as its new hoop coach; he is Mike Dunleavy Sr’s son. Quinnipiac could’ve hired alumnus Jared Grasso, an assistant for MAAC rival Iona, but they didn’t- they used a search firm and the search firm chose Dunleavy.
My question is this: if you need a search firm to hire a coach, what the bleep do you need an athletic director for?
Other coaching news: Duquesne is set to hire Akron coach Keith Dambrot, who is best known for being Lebron James’ high school coach.
5) I’m going to be curious to see if Josh Reddick plays against lefties this season; in his 8-year career, Reddick is a .218 hitter vs lefties, with a .280 on-base percentage.
Back in 2014, I got so aggravated when the A’s pinch-hit for Reddick in the 4th inning of a big game because the Angels had put a lefty in. If he plays every day now, we’ll find out if he can be productive against southpaws.
Astros played the Mets last week; Mets’ TV analyst Ron Darling basically said that Houston overpaid for Reddick. Darling isn’t overly critical; it was a surprising thing to hear.
4) Kyle Larson won the NASCAR race at Fontana Sunday; his rental car (he wasn’t driving) was involved in a fender-bender as he was leaving the track Sunday night. No one was injured.
I’ve often wondered if NASCAR drivers struggle driving in regular traffic.
3) Cleveland Indians have a minor league catcher named Logan Ice. Tremendous name.
2) When Al Davis was alive, he was almost always the “1” in 31-1 NFL votes. Miami Dolphins were the one team that voted against the Raiders’ move to Las Vegas.
1— Coastal Carolina 91, Wyoming 81— Game 1 of the best-of-3 CBI tournament. Series resumes with a game Wednesday in Laramie. Not an easy commute. This was a fast-paced game; with the next game in high altitude, that pace will be interesting.

Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack
Odds to win Houston Open golf tournament this weekend:
6-1– Jordan Spieth
10-1— Joe Rahm
12-1— Henrik Stenson
15-1— Ricky Fowler, Justin Rose
20-1- Phil Mickelson
25-1— Adam Scott
**********
Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind……..
13) There is an NFL rule that prohibits NFL officials from visiting Las Vegas during football season. I’m not the smartest guy in America, but I think that rule needs to be deleted.
12) I’m having lunch at a bar Tuesday; guy there is working on his laptop at the bar, talking on the phone- he tells the caller he has to go, he has another call.
Guy puts his phone down, orders another daiquiri and resumes watching the Mets’ game on TV while munching on popcorn. Looked like he has a pretty good job.
11) Sacramento Kings won games by one point on consecutive nights this week, first time their franchise has done that since December 8-9, 1956, when they were the Rochester Royals.
10) In Kings’ win at Staples Center Sunday, they trailed by 18 points with 5:00 left; this was only second time in last 6,748 NBA games where a team was down 18 with 5:00 left and rallied to win the game.
9) Was very busy at Staples Center last weekend; Lakers played there Friday night, Clippers had a game Saturday afternoon, then the NHL’s Kings played there Saturday night. Clippers were back in action Sunday afternoon— busy weekend for the workers in the arena who change things around inside Staples Center, assembling and taking down the basketball floor.
8) Chargers sold out their season tickets at the 30,000-seat soccer stadium they’ll be playing at for the next two years, in Carson. Raiders have already sold out their season tickets for this year in Oakland and have a waiting list for season tickets. Wonder how they’ll draw in Las Vegas.
7) Georgetown fired John Thompson III last week; they’ve apparently already been rebuffed by Mike Brey, Shaka Smart and Ed Cooley, as they try and replace JTIII. I’m thinking the very large shadow of John Thompson II makes this a bad job- they should just hire Patrick Ewing, and see what he can do. At least Ewing would have Big John’s blessing.
6) Oklahoma City 92, Dallas 91— Thunder scored the last 13 points of Monday night’s win.
5) White Sox traded veteran journeyman OF Peter Bourjos to the Rays Tuesday for cash. Bourjos runs fast, is a good defender, but profiles as a 4th outfielder-type.
4) South Carolina is first Final Four team since Cincinnati in 1992 that hadn’t been in the NCAA tournament the previous 10+ years.
3) I’m not a morning person; doorbell rings Tuesday morning and it is Jehovah’s Witnesses- the women take one look at me, one of them hands me a pamphlet and they quickly take a hike. Not sure why people would go door-to-door on a Tuesday; most people have jobs, no?
2) Georgia Tech 76, Cal-Bakersfield 61— Roadrunners made long trip east and laid an egg, going 8-22 on arc after making 30-59 3-pointers in previous three games, all of which were true road games. Tech was +8 (7-15) in turnovers.
1— TCU 68, Central Florida 53— Fran Fraschilla actually asked Joe Lunardi on the air during this game if he would rather lose a play-in game or win the NIT? Seriously? If you make it into the field of 68, your season is judged a hell of a lot better than if you played in the NIT.
TCU vs Georgia Tech for NIT title Thursday; a 4-seed against a 6-seed. Two coaches in the first year at that school.
Odds to win Houston Open golf tournament this weekend:
6-1– Jordan Spieth
10-1— Joe Rahm
12-1— Henrik Stenson
15-1— Ricky Fowler, Justin Rose
20-1- Phil Mickelson
25-1— Adam Scott
**********
Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind……..
13) There is an NFL rule that prohibits NFL officials from visiting Las Vegas during football season. I’m not the smartest guy in America, but I think that rule needs to be deleted.
12) I’m having lunch at a bar Tuesday; guy there is working on his laptop at the bar, talking on the phone- he tells the caller he has to go, he has another call.
Guy puts his phone down, orders another daiquiri and resumes watching the Mets’ game on TV while munching on popcorn. Looked like he has a pretty good job.
11) Sacramento Kings won games by one point on consecutive nights this week, first time their franchise has done that since December 8-9, 1956, when they were the Rochester Royals.
10) In Kings’ win at Staples Center Sunday, they trailed by 18 points with 5:00 left; this was only second time in last 6,748 NBA games where a team was down 18 with 5:00 left and rallied to win the game.
9) Was very busy at Staples Center last weekend; Lakers played there Friday night, Clippers had a game Saturday afternoon, then the NHL’s Kings played there Saturday night. Clippers were back in action Sunday afternoon— busy weekend for the workers in the arena who change things around inside Staples Center, assembling and taking down the basketball floor.
8) Chargers sold out their season tickets at the 30,000-seat soccer stadium they’ll be playing at for the next two years, in Carson. Raiders have already sold out their season tickets for this year in Oakland and have a waiting list for season tickets. Wonder how they’ll draw in Las Vegas.

Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack
Odds to win the college football national title game next year:
Odds are from the Westgate SuperBook
3-1— Alabama
8-1— Florida State, Ohio State, Oklahoma, USC
10-1— Louisville
12-1— Michigan, LSU
20-1— Clemson, Oklahoma State, Texas
25-1— Penn State, Auburn
**********
Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud……
13) Tennessee Volunteers are only team that played all four teams in the Final Four this season; they were 0-5 against them, losing twice to South Carolina.
12) 1982 title game: North Carolina 63, Georgetown 62. UNC’s bench played a total of 13:00, Hoyas’ subs played total of 22:00. Maybe things have changed less than I think.
11) Was pricing some Air Jordan sneakers the other day, have never owned any. Damn, they’re expensive!!!! No thanks.
10) When a mid-major basketball school with limited resources wins a lot, it usually means they hire a lot of coaches, since the $$ schools poach their coaches. Take VCU, for instance…….
2002-06— Jeff Capel 79-41, 50-22 in CAA (went to Oklahoma)
2006-09— Anthony Grant 76-25, 45-9 in CAA (went to Alabama)
2009-15— Shaka Smart 163-56, 74-30 in CAA/A-14 (went to Texas)
2015-17— Will Wade 51-20, 28-8 in A-14 (went to LSU)
2017-present— Mike Rhoades (hired from Rice)
Keep in mind Capel/Grant both got fired and Smart is struggling at Texas. Maybe it is best to be the big fish in a smaller pond. And VCU does pay its coach well (Wade made $1.4M this season).
9) Detroit Red Wings will miss NHL playoffs this season for first time in 26 years.
8) Having instant replay stuff decided by NFL people in New York instead of by the ref on the field will be a good thing. Problem is, if there are ten games on at 1:00 and four of them have replay issues at the same time, which games take precedence?
7) UMass hired Matt McCall as its new basketball coach, after Pat Kelsey skipped out on them at the last minute last week. McCall is a former assistant for Billy Donovan at Florida; he went 48-18 in two seasons as the coach at Chattanooga.
6) Interesting article on espn.com this week, on how in the 90’s, Gonzaga University was in financial trouble; their undergraduate enrollment had dipped from 4,176 in 1990 to 2,791 in 1998.
Gonzaga’s basketball team started winning in ’99; in 2000, the freshman class was 900 kids and now, since 2004, seven new buildings have been built on campus, so the school that is located in eastern Washington (Spokane) is thriving, in part because of basketball’s success.
Undergraduate enrollment this year is 5,160.
5) Mets closer Jeurys Familia got a 15-game suspension for domestic violence issues.
4) Red Sox OF Mookie Betts has bowled seven perfect (300) games. Impressive.
3) Wyoming 81, Coastal Carolina 57— Last year, Nevada lost the opener of CBI final and then beat Morehead State twice in Reno to win tourney title. Same thing could be happening here; Cowboys made 12-31 on arc, while Coastal was 5-26 playing in high altitude. Final in Friday.
2) St Peter’s 77, Furman 51— Niko Medved is a coach who just jumped from Furman to Drake; he didn’t wait until the Paladins’ run in the CIT was over- he just bolted, so they played this game at St Peter’s with an interim coach. He couldn’t have waited a couple days? Coach Medved did his players a big disservice; in my opinion, he’s a creep.
For the record, Furman plays in the SoCon, the #13 league- they tied for first in and are #95 in country. Only two teams in the MVC, the #10 league, are ranked higher than Furman- Wichita State and Illinois State. Drake is the #258 team; not even sure why this guy changed jobs. Can the money be that much better?
To their credit, St Peter’s made 13-27 on the arc in this game; their reward is a trip to Corpus Christi for the tournament final Friday.
1— Corpus Christi 79, UMBC 61— Retrievers played without Jairus Lyles, were held to their lowest scoring output of season. Corpus Christi hosts the championship game against St Peter’s on Friday night— solid national TV exposure for these teams.
Odds to win the college football national title game next year:
Odds are from the Westgate SuperBook
3-1— Alabama
8-1— Florida State, Ohio State, Oklahoma, USC
10-1— Louisville

**********
Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud……
13) Tennessee Volunteers are only team that played all four teams in the Final Four this season; they were 0-5 against them, losing twice to South Carolina.
12) 1982 title game: North Carolina 63, Georgetown 62. UNC’s bench played a total of 13:00, Hoyas’ subs played total of 22:00. Maybe things have changed less than I think.
11) Was pricing some Air Jordan sneakers the other day, have never owned any. Damn, they’re expensive!!!! No thanks.
10) When a mid-major basketball school with limited resources wins a lot, it usually means they hire a lot of coaches, since the $$ schools poach their coaches. Take VCU, for instance…….
2002-06— Jeff Capel 79-41, 50-22 in CAA (went to Oklahoma)
2006-09— Anthony Grant 76-25, 45-9 in CAA (went to Alabama)
2009-15— Shaka Smart 163-56, 74-30 in CAA/A-14 (went to Texas)
2015-17— Will Wade 51-20, 28-8 in A-14 (went to LSU)
2017-present— Mike Rhoades (hired from Rice)
Keep in mind Capel/Grant both got fired and Smart is struggling at Texas. Maybe it is best to be the big fish in a smaller pond. And VCU does pay its coach well (Wade made $1.4M this season).
9) Detroit Red Wings will miss NHL playoffs this season for first time in 26 years.
8) Having instant replay stuff decided by NFL people in New York instead of by the ref on the field will be a good thing. Problem is, if there are ten games on at 1:00 and four of them have replay issues at the same time, which games take precedence?
7) UMass hired Matt McCall as its new basketball coach, after Pat Kelsey skipped out on them at the last minute last week. McCall is a former assistant for Billy Donovan at Florida; he went 48-18 in two seasons as the coach at Chattanooga.
6) Interesting article on espn.com this week, on how in the 90’s, Gonzaga University was in financial trouble; their undergraduate enrollment had dipped from 4,176 in 1990 to 2,791 in 1998.
Gonzaga’s basketball team started winning in ’99; in 2000, the freshman class was 900 kids and now, since 2004, seven new buildings have been built on campus, so the school that is located in eastern Washington (Spokane) is thriving, in part because of basketball’s success.
Undergraduate enrollment this year is 5,160.
5) Mets closer Jeurys Familia got a 15-game suspension for domestic violence issues.
4) Red Sox OF Mookie Betts has bowled seven perfect (300) games. Impressive.
3) Wyoming 81, Coastal Carolina 57— Last year, Nevada lost the opener of CBI final and then beat Morehead State twice in Reno to win tourney title. Same thing could be happening here; Cowboys made 12-31 on arc, while Coastal was 5-26 playing in high altitude. Final in Friday.
