********************
Saturday?s List of 13: Our first look at college basketball for this season
I don?t go grocery shopping much, because I never cook, but while getting some junk food Friday, guess what was there? The Athlon college basketball magazine for 2019-20, already on newsstands on August 30. Here is what I learned from scanning this fine magazine:
13) Top 4 coaching hires:
? Fred Hoiberg, Nebraska? His grandfather was once Nebraska?s head coach. He might be the only person in America who would turn down the UCLA basketball job for this.
? Eric Musselman, Arkansas? My first instinct was that this is a bad fit, but he was great at Nevada and he coached two NBA teams.
? Buzz Williams, Texas A&M? He got Virginia Tech to the NCAA?s the last three years; they had been there twice in the previous 30 years. Va Tech is a football school, too.
? Nate Oats, Alabama? Went 31-5 in MAC last two years; his job is to entertain the locals until spring football starts.
12) UCLA butchered its coaching search; they wound up with Mick Cronin, who is a solid coach but Bruin fans are going to hate his defense-first style (or lack of style).
Last six years, Cronin?s Cincinnati teams? national rank in tempo (out of 351 or 353 teams):
328-339-333-330-330-338
From 2006-08, Ben Howland made the Final Four three years in a row; from that point on, AFTER he made the Final Four three years in a row, UCLA went 58-32 in Pac-12 games, but only 2-3 in NCAA tourney games- they told Howland to take a hike. Why?!?!?!?!?
Cincinnati made the NCAA?s the last nine years, but since 2013, they?re 3-4 in 1st round, 0-3 in the 2nd round, and never made an Elite 8 under Cronin. Uh-oh.
11) There are 354 Division I teams this year; Merrimack joins the NEC this year, after Cal Baptist joined the WAC and North Alabama joined the Atlantic Sun.
10) Keep in mind that the 3-point line has been moved back 16.75 inches, to the international distance of 22 feet, 1.75 inches. The NBA arc is 23 feet, 9 inches.
They used the longer international arc in the NIT last spring; teams shot 2.2% lower behind the arc than they did in the regular season.
9) Five coaches on the hot seat:
? Dave Leitao, DePaul? LY?s 19-17 mark was their best in 12 years, but then the NCAA came calling. Last 4 years, Blue Demons are 16-56 in Big East games, and they?re cheating. Oy.
? Danny Manning, Wake Forest- Deacons are 24-66 in ACC games under his watch.
? Matt McCall, UMass? When you finish 13th two years in a row in a league called the Atlantic 10 (they have 14 teams), your job is going to be in jeopardy.
? Shaka Smart, Texas? His Longhorn teams are 31-41 in Big X games, and they don?t play the same fast-paced style his great VCU teams played. Why?
? Patrick Chambers, Penn State? 8 years, 0 NCAA bids; last year, 8 of 14 Big 14 teams made the NCAA?s. PSU is a football school, but Chambers still needs to show progress.
8) Gonzaga is the only team in the country that has made the Sweet 16 the last five years.
7) Athlon Sports top 6 teams for this season:
6? Memphis Tigers
5? Florida Gators
4? Louisville Cardinals
3? Kentucky Wildcats
2? Duke Blue Devils
1? Michigan State Spartans
6) Brad Brownell has been Clemson?s coach for nine years; in four of those years, Clemson finished .500+ in ACC games but didn?t make the NCAA?s. They need to win more games in December, but they were in the Sweet 16 two years ago. Brownell is a good coach whose job is a tough one- they lost five of their top six scorers from last year?s 20-14 team.
5) Five most impactful freshmen this year:
5? Nico Mannion, Arizona- Scoring PG whose dad played in the NBA.
4? Anthony Edwards, Georgia- 5-star recruit from talent-rich Atlanta.
3? James Wiseman, Memphis- 7-1 center who needs work on offense.
2? Isaiah Stewart, Washington- Young man from Rochester, NY is long way from home.
1? Cole Anthony, North Carolina- His dad Greg was UNLV?s PG in the Tark glory days.
4) Some programs win no matter who the coach is.. Check out VCU?s record:
1999-2002? Mack McCarthy, 65-55, 35-32 in CAA
2002-06? Jeff Capel, 79-41, 50-22 in CAA
2006-09? Anthony Grant, 76-25, 45-9 in CAA
2009-15? Shaka Smart, 163-56, 38-16 in CAA, 36-14 in A-14
2015-17? Will Wade, 51-20, 28-8 in A-14
2017-19? Mike Rhoades, 43-23, 25-11 in A-14
3) Five of this year?s better transfers:
? Omer Yurtseven, NC State to Georgetown- Scored 13.5 ppg for the Wolfpack.
? Quade Green, Kentucky to Washington- Will be Huskies? PG after the 1st semester.
? Malachi Flynn, Washington St to San Diego St? Scored 15.8 ppg for the Coogs.
? Koby McEwen, Utah State to Marquette? Bolted Logan after they fired the coach.
? Jalen Harris, Louisiana Tech to Nevada? Wolf Pack literally wouldn?t have been able to field a team the day they hired Steve Alford. Harris scored 15.3 ppg his last year at Tech.
2) Under Chris Beard, Texas Tech is 8-2 in NCAA tourney games; before Beard became Tech?s coach, Tech was 8-16 all-time in NCAA tourney games.
1) Georgetown played the fastest tempo games of any Big East team last year, playing the 25th-fastest tempo in the whole country. I wonder what John Thompson thinks of that?
Patrick Ewing has changed the Hoyas? program into one that plays fast, which helps recruiting? Hoyas are 34-29 under Ewing, 14-22 in Big East games, but they were 19-14, 9-9 LY. They?ll be an interesting team to watch this winter.
? Nevada 34, Purdue 31? Wolf Pack rallied back from down 31-14, drilled a 56-yard FG at the gun for a dramatic win.
? Wake Forest 38, Utah State 35? Both teams threw for 400+ yards.
? Nationals 7, Marlins 6? Rendon?s single sent the locals home happy.
? Mets 11, Phillies 5? Wilson Ramos is 11-16 with the bases loaded.
? Dodgers put 2B Max Muncy (broken wrist) on the IL.

Delle Donne, Mystics hold on to beat Wings
August 31, 2019
ShareFacebookTwitterDiggMySpace
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) Elena Delle Donne scored 29 points, Emma Meesseman added 19 points, seven rebounds, seven assists and four blocks, and the Washington Mystics beat the Dallas Wings 91-85 on Saturday night.
Washington set a franchise record winning its 23rd game of the season and remained in first place in the standings.
Natasha Cloud and Shatori Walker-Kimbrough scored 13 points apiece and LaToya Sanders added 12 points and a season-high 11 rebounds for the Mystics (23-8). Washington has won three games in a row and 14 of its last 16.
Delle Donne and Meesseman hit back-to-back 3-pointers to spark an 11-0 run that gave Washington nine-point lead when Meesseman's three-point play capped the spurt with 5:39 left in the first quarter. The Wings scored 13 of the next 18 points to cut their deficit to 23-21 about 2 1/2 minutes later but Delle Donne answered with a 3-point play and Dallas got no closer.
Arike Ogunbowale scored 30 points, Glory Johnson tied her season high with 20 points and Allisha Gray added 14 for Dallas (10-21). Ogunbowale, who scored 35 in a win over Chicago on Thursday, extended her WNBA rookie record to eight consecutive games with at least 20 points.
The Mystics used a 9-0 run to make it 80-57 - their biggest lead of the game - late in the third quarter. Dallas scored 24 of the next 30 points to pull within six with 90 seconds left.

Lynx beat Fever behind strong effort from Collier
September 1, 2019
By The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Odyssey Sims scored 17 points, Napheesa Collier had 15 points and 10 rebounds to move into elite company and the Minnesota Lynx defeated the Indiana Fever 81-73 on Sunday, a key win for playoff positioning.
Collier surpassed 400 points and 200 rebounds to join former Indiana star Tamika Catchings as the only rookies to surpass the 400/200 barrier plus have 60 steals. That helped the Lynx (17-15) stay a half-game in front of Seattle for the home court advantage if the two teams meet in the No. 6-No. 7 matchup in the playoffs.
Minnesota only shot 44% to 51% for Indiana, but took advantage of 19 turnovers by the Fever and had 13 offensive rebounds. Indiana only shot 35 percent and the Lynx hit all four of their 3-pointers in the fourth quarter.
Sylvia Fowles had 10 points and five rebounds for the Lynx and is four boards behind Catchings for No. 2 in WNBA history. Fowles passed Lauren Jackson for 10th on the WNBA all-time field goal list.
Candice Dupree had 18 points and Tiffany Mitchell 14 for the Fever (11-20). Rookie Teaira McCowan had 12 points and 11 rebounds, extending her double-double streak to four games and surpassing Catchings' Indiana rookie record of 276. She now has 283, the second-best rebounding season in Indiana history and No. 7 all-time among WNBA rookies. With 20 rebounds in the last two games she would tie the Indiana record.
SKY 105, MERCURY 78
CHICAGO (AP) - Cheyenne Parker and Astou Ndour scored 18 points apiece to lead six Chicago players scoring in double figures and the Sky beat the Mercury.
Diamond DeShields added 15 points, Allie Quigley had 12, Kahleah Copper 11 points and Stephanie Dolson 10 for Chicago. Courtney Vandersloot had nine points and 13 assists - extending her WNBA single-season record to 283. She also didn't turn the ball over. She has 11 double-digit assist games this season giving her 44 in her career, tied with Seattle's Sue Bird for second most in WNBA history.
Vandersloot hit two free throws to give the Sky (19-13) the lead for good and make it 54-53 at halftime before Ndour and Parker each hit a pair of 3-pointers during a 20-4 run to open the third quarter
Brittney Griner had 26 points and nine rebounds and DeWanna Bonner finished with 12 points and 12 boards for Phoenix (15-16). The Mercury were outscored 51-25 after halftime, setting their season low for points in a second half.
STORM 92, DREAM 75
SEATTLE (AP) - Jordin Canada had a career-high 21 points, eight assists and five steals and the Storm held on for a win over the Dream.
Alysha Clark had 16 points and eight rebounds, Natasha Howard added 14 points, eight boards and two blocks and Jewell Loyd scored 11 points for Seattle.
Five different Storm players scored during a 14-2 run that gave Seattle a 14-point lead when Crystal Langhorne converted a 3-point play late in the first quarter. After Renee Montgomery hit a 3 to cut the Dream's deficit to 14-12, they made just one of their next five shots and committed four turnovers during Seattle's spurt.
Atlanta's Monique Billings banked in a short jumper and then hit a 3-pointer to spark a 16-6 run that made it 77-73 with 4:29 left in the game. Alex Bentley hit a pull-up jumper and then made back-to-back 3-pointers to cap the spurt but the Dream went 0 for 4 from the field and 2 for 4 from the free-throw line and committed four turnovers as Seattle (16-15) scored 15 of the final 17 points.
Billings and Montgomery had 15 points apiece and Bentley scored 14 for Atlanta (7-24).

Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack
Interesting college football spreads for this week:
? Nebraska (-4.5) @ Colorado
? Texas A&M @ Clemson (-17.5)
? San Diego State @ UCLA (-7)
? BYU @ Tennessee (-3.5)
? LSU (-5) @ Texas
? Miami (-6) @ North Carolina
**********
Armadillo:Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but??
13) Bad weekend to be a USC quarterback:
We said yesterday how USC Trojans QB JT Daniels tore his ACL and is done for the year. He will be replaced by true freshman Kedon Slovis.
South Carolina Gamecocks QB Jake Bentley broke his foot and is out for six weeks; his replacement will be true freshman Ryan Hilinski.
12) Slovis, Hilinski starting means that seven true freshmen are now starting QB?s out of 130 I-A football teams.
11) Indianapolis Colts gave QB Jacoby Brissett $30M for two years, and then signed Brian Hoyer as his backup, giving him $12M for three years.
10) In his last three years at UCLA, Dolphins? QB Josh Rosen had three different offensive coordinators; last year, he had two OC?s in his one year with the Cardinals, and obviously has a new OC in Miami this year. Plus the Dolphins just traded their LT, which endangers the health of whomever plays QB for Miami this year.
Not a great start to Rosen?s career.
9) Early nominee for Bad Beat of the Year was Northwestern (+6.5) at Stanford. Game was 10-7 Stanford in the last minute when the Cardinal sacked Northwestern?s QB, he fumbled and they scored a defensive TD to cover the spread with 0:20 left to play.
8) Jets? radio guy Bob Wischusen was working a college game on ESPN Saturday and was saying how he thinks Jim Brown and Lawrence Taylor were the two best football players ever.
Jim Brown played before my time, so I can?t comment on him; LT was a great linebacker whose pass rushing skills helped change the game, but if he did the same exact thing playing for the Chiefs or Bengals, instead of a NYC-area team, he?s not in the best player ever conversation.
7) In five starts from April 15-May 9, Cubs? P Yu Darvish walked 22 batters in 22.2 IP.
In 14 starts since June 15, Darvish has walked 8 hitters, while striking out 102 in 80 IP.
6) Jacksonville Jaguars won?t practice Wednesday because of Hurricane Dorian.
5) Alabama is a 54-point favorite over New Mexico State Saturday; the total is 65; Crimson Tide opens SEC play next week when they play South Carolina, so the starter figure to get a good chunk of this game off. Then again, New Mexico State just lost 58-7 at Washington State, so probably a good game to stay away from.
4) Ryan Fitzpatrick will be the 20th QB to start for the Dolphins since Dan Marino retired.
3) Final AAA Home Run Totals:
2018 ? 3,652
2019 ? 5,749 (57.4% increase)
AAA games switched to major league baseballs this year.
2) Sports betting became legal in Indiana Sunday; governor of Indiana made a $10 wager on the Colts to open things up. Probably would?ve bet more if Andrew Luck hadn?t retired.
Wouldn?t it be fun if just once, a politician stepped out and dropped $1,000 on the home team with his ceremonial first bet? Have some onions, Governor!!!
1) Labor Day night and only two baseball games are on, with 8:00 the latest start time. Whats up with that?
Interesting college football spreads for this week:
? Nebraska (-4.5) @ Colorado
? Texas A&M @ Clemson (-17.5)
? San Diego State @ UCLA (-7)
? BYU @ Tennessee (-3.5)
? LSU (-5) @ Texas
? Miami (-6) @ North Carolina
**********
Armadillo:Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but??
13) Bad weekend to be a USC quarterback:
We said yesterday how USC Trojans QB JT Daniels tore his ACL and is done for the year. He will be replaced by true freshman Kedon Slovis.
South Carolina Gamecocks QB Jake Bentley broke his foot and is out for six weeks; his replacement will be true freshman Ryan Hilinski.
12) Slovis, Hilinski starting means that seven true freshmen are now starting QB?s out of 130 I-A football teams.
11) Indianapolis Colts gave QB Jacoby Brissett $30M for two years, and then signed Brian Hoyer as his backup, giving him $12M for three years.
10) In his last three years at UCLA, Dolphins? QB Josh Rosen had three different offensive coordinators; last year, he had two OC?s in his one year with the Cardinals, and obviously has a new OC in Miami this year. Plus the Dolphins just traded their LT, which endangers the health of whomever plays QB for Miami this year.
Not a great start to Rosen?s career.

Team Betting Notes
Atlanta (7-24 SU, 14-17 ATS) continues to limp to the finish line, dropping each of their two contests in the previous week while failing to cover in each. The over has connected in four of the past five outings heading into the final week.
Chicago (19-13 SU, 20-11-1 ATS) had a rough week, going 1-2 SU/ATS, although their 105-78 whitewashing of the Mercury is a feel-good moment heading into the new week. The over cashed for the fourth straight game in that one, and the over is 12-1 across the past 13 outings, too.
Connecticut (22-9 SU, 13-17-1 ATS) managed a pair of victories to keep pace with the Mystics in the East Division, sitting just one game back. The Sun have won six of the past seven overall, and they're 3-1-1 ATS across the past five outings.
Dallas (10-21 SU, 16-15 ATS) split a pair of battles in the past week, while covering each. They're a respectable 5-3 ATS across the past eight outings. The 'over' has connected in four in a row, while going 7-1 across the past eight outings, too.
Indiana (11-21 SU, 15-16-1 ATS) dropped each of their past two outings, but they continue to play hard down the stretch. The Fever have ratllted off a season-best four covers in a row, while the 'under' is 3-1 during the impressive span. The over is also 3-1-1 in their past five outings at home.
After splitting a pair of games in the past week, Las Vegas (20-12 SU, 12-20 ATS) was able to join the Mystics and Sun in the 20-win club. The Aces had a rare under result at Indian on Aug. 27, but the over is 8-1 across the past nine contests for the first-place Aces.
Los Angeles (19-12 SU, 15-15-1 ATS) have been hard to figure lately. They covered four in a row from July 23-Aug. 8, went 0-3 ATS from Aug. 11-16, covered three in a row from Aug. 20-25, and now they're in an 0-3 ATS skid again heading into the new week.
Minnesota (17-15 SU, 17-14-1 ATS) have won a season-high four games in a row, covering three of them while the 'over' has cashed in three of those outings. The over is also 9-3 across the past 12 contests, too.
New York (9-22 SU, 10-19-2 ATS) have dropped four in a row, and 12 of the past 13 games while going 1-10-1 ATS across the past 12. They have failed to cover in consecutive games dating all the way back to July 20-24. The 'over' has cashed in four in a row, and the over is 8-2-1 across the past 11.
Phoenix (15-16 SU, 17-13-1 ATS) clinched a playoff spot, going 2-1 SU/ATS in their three-game week. The Mercury are an impressive 6-2 ATS across the past eight outings. The 'over' has connected in four of the past five, too.
Seattle (16-15 SU, 16-14-1 ATS) stayed one game ahead of the Mercury, bouncing back with a 17-point win over the Dream after dropping two in a row at home. The Storm had posted a solid 5-3 ATS mark across the past eight, and the 'over' is 4-1 in the past five outings.
Washington (23-8 SU, 18-12-1 ATS) haven't lost back-to-back games since a three-game losing skid back from July 7-13. They're 13-2 SU across the past 15 games since that three-game slide, and they're 6-2 ATS in the past eight outings. The over is also 9-3 in their past 12 games, too.

Washington cruises to easy win over New York
September 4, 2019
By The Associated Press
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) Elena Delle Donne scored 25 of her 30 points in the first half and the Washington Mystics cruised to a 93-77 win over the New York Liberty on Tuesday night.
Ariel Atkins added 23 points for the Mystics (24-8), who have clinched a top-two seed for the playoffs and extended their lead over second place Connecticut to 1+ games. The season ends Sunday.
Washington raced to a 31-19 lead after one quarter and with Delle Donne scoring 17 points in the second quarter stretched the advantage to 58-40 at the break.
Delle Donne and LaToya Sanders both had 10 rebounds as the Mystics dominated the boards 42-23.
Marine Johannes led the Liberty (9-23), which has lost five straight and 13 of 14, with a career-high 22 points. The rookie from France had scored 21 points in her previous game.
The Mystics, who have won four straight, signed Tianna Hawkins, a former first-round pick, to a contract extension through the 2020 season, then rested her against the Liberty. Kristi Toliver missed her ninth straight game because of a knee injury that is expected to keep her out until the playoffs.
STORM 82, MERCURY 70
PHOENIX (AP) - Natasha Howard scored 11 of her 22 points in the first quarter and the Storm got off to a strong start en route to a win over the Mercury.
Seattle (17-15) moved into a tie with Minnesota for the sixth seed and holds the tiebreaker. The Mercury (15-17) will finish eighth. When the playoffs open next week, the fifth and sixth seeds have home games and the seventh and eighth seeds are on the road in the single-elimination first round.
The Storm shot 58% in the first quarter to 39% for the Mercury and steadily pulled away. It was 50-35 at halftime and the margin was 20 entering the fourth quarter.
Brittney Griner had 22 points for Phoenix.
Before the game the Storm announced Sue Bird, who had preseason knee surgery, would not play this season.
It was Women of Inspiration night in Phoenix with the Mercury players wearing custom shoes dedicated to the women who inspired them.
SPARKS 70, DREAM 60
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Candace Parker and Chiney Ogwumike each had double-doubles and Los Angeles overcame a slow start to beat the last-place Dream in a game that put the Sparks in position to earn a first-round bye in the playoffs.
Parker had 21 points and 11 rebounds, Ogwumike 17 and 10. Ogwumike started for her sister Nneka, who was out with an illness that sidelined her for the second half of the team's last game against Las Vegas.
After trailing by 11 after one quarter, the Sparks rallied in the second quarter, took the lead in the third and held off Atlanta to move a full game ahead of fifth-place Chicago with two games to play.
The Sparks (20-12) have won 12 straight at home, where they play their last two games. Los Angeles coach Derek Fisher became the ninth WNBA head coach to get to 20 wins in their first season. The record is 29 by the Sparks' Michael Cooper in 2000.
Atlanta shot 55% in the first quarter to 33% for the Sparks but a 7-0 run helped Los Angeles take a brief lead before the Dream took a 35-34 lead into the break. It was 51-45 for the Sparks after three quarters. The teams combined to go 7 of 40 from 3-point range.
Alex Bentley, who did not score in the second half, and Elizabeth Williams each had 15 points for Atlanta (7-25). The Dream are having their worst season since their inaugural season of 2008 (four wins).

13) Someone posted what each starting QB is worth to their team?s power rating, courtesy of Betonline.ag :

Least value:
+1 point: Manning
0 points: Dalton, Fitzpatrick, Keenum
1 point: Allen, Carr, Flacco, Mariota, Murray
12) Nationals 11, Mets 10:
? deGrom vs Scherzer isn?t supposed to end 11-10.
? Mets led 5-4 after eight innings, then they scored five runs in top of 9th.
? Washington scored seven runs in bottom of 9th; Suzuki hit a walk-off homer.
11) Marlins 5, Pirates 4 (11)? Miami ends its 15-game road losing streak, the longest such losing streak since 2010. when the Pirates lost 17 consecutive road games.
10) Minnesota Twins set the all-time single season home run record this year, but they?re the only team this season that hasn?t hit two grand slams- they?ve only hit one.
9) Speaking of home runs, Jorge Soler hit his 39th homer this season Tuesday, setting the Kansas City Royals? single season record.
8) Westgate?s football SuperContest pays the top 100 finishers, plus it pays $15,000 for the Week 4 leader, $15,000 for Week 8 leader and a $15,000 mini-contest for Weeks 15-17 (for the 2,907 early-bird entrants). Over 3,000 entrants are expected to be in the SuperContest this year.
It costs $1,500 to enter, and you pick five NFL games every week.
7) Los Angeles Rams did a smart thing Tuesday, inking QB Jared Goff to a contract extension that keeps him in LA until at least 2024. Goff is one of only 13 quarterbacks who started a Super Bowl in their first three years in the NFL- he is 24-14 as an NFL starter, 24-7 under Sean McVay.
Goff banks $134M for four years, $110M of it guaranteed.
6) My sleep habits are weird, so I can see lot of games when they?re played overseas, but these World Cup basketball games in China are on at times when even I am asleep, from 4:30-10:30 am, so I?m going to miss out on them, unless NBA TV or ESPN replays them.
Saw that the American team needed OT to beat Turkey by a point; that not good.
5) Monday night?s Colorado-Dodger game was the first time in major league history there were 11+ doubles and 11+ homers in the same game.
4) Cody Bellinger has 44 home runs this season, off of 44 different pitchers.
3) From ESPN?s Michele Steele: When the Chicago Bears won the 1963 NFL title (before the Super Bowl existed), the NFL didn?t have a championship trophy, so Chicago mayor Richard Daley had a trophy made and presented it to the Bears.
2) 2019 Oakland Raiders were the 14th team to be featured on Hard Knocks; here is how the other 13 teams did both that season and in their Week 1 game:
? 5 of 13 teams made the playoffs; none made the Super Bowl.
? 3 of last 5 years, featured head coach was fired during/after the season.
? Teams are 4-7-1 SU in Week 1; ?17 Bucs had their opener postponed by a storm.
? Teams are 5-6-1 vs spread in Week 1; 3-3 as favorites, 2-3-1 as underdogs.
