**********************************

Friday?s Den: Going back to school, and our first set of NBA trends??.

Feel like I?ve gone back to school this week; been studying college basketball, which has changed drastically over the last five years.

Last year was a debacle for everyone; TCU had one full practice before they played a game, Many teams had 2-week/3-week lapses because of COVID. Kids are switching schools left and right; I expect a kid to transfer during a TV timeout, switching benches during a game.

Lot of the methods I used to use to pick games on this site don?t matter as much anymore; trends from previous years? the transfer epidemic has made past history less relevant. All that matters now is the current roster, and how coaches are at creating chemistry after the dust clears from the transfer chaos.

I went to UAlbany, a low-major school; they fired their coach last spring, a guy who had brought the Great Danes to five NCAA tourneys in 20 years.

I am told the coach and AD despise each other, but three years ago, with Albany one of the favorites in America East, both his returning starting guards transferred, one to Florida State, one to Villanova. Albany had a losing season; if those two kids had stayed, Great Danes might?ve won the league, and the coach would?ve gotten a raise instead of losing his job.

South Florida lost five transfers last spring; they added seven transfers. They basically have a whole new team. Lot of schools like that. Do they teams with lot of returning players have a big advantage early on?

Minnesota changed coaches, then 10 of their 12 players transferred out of town. The new coach had two players and one of those can?t play because he had his knee operated on. He now has players from 10 different states; harder to have good chemistry that way.

Texas poached eight players and added two freshmen- their haul of transfers is supposedly the best in the country.

On and on it goes; the transfer portal is huge in college basketball right now. Once the games start in couple weeks, we?ll be studying rosters to see who did the best job at cobbling together a viable team.

At least it is invigorating that things seem to be getting back to normal; I?m studying up on these teams, will provide you what information I can as the season goes on. The bottom line one all this is that we?ll be studying numbers as closely as ever, just a different set of numbers.

2,093? Patrick Mahomes, KC

Saturday?s quiz
Which former NFL linebacker plays the sheriff in Dr Pepper commercials that are on TV all day during college football games?

Friday?s quiz
Dak Prescott played his college football at Mississippi State.

Thursday?s quiz
Cal-Irvine?s basketball team are the Anteaters.

*******************************

Saturday?s Den: Clearing out a cluttered mind??..

13) If you read this site much, you know I?m a big Oakland A?s fan; tough week this week, with Bob Melvin leaving Oakland to become manager of the San Diego Padres.

Melvin grew up in the Bay Area, was an A?s fan growing up. He managed the A?s for 11 years, making the playoffs six times, while working for cheapskate owners who don?t give a rat?s ass about winning games. Melvin is an excellent manager; other than Dick Williams, he?s the best manager the Oakland A?s have ever had.

Melvin?s record with the A?s: 860-777. He will be missed.

12) Does Melvin leaving Oakland signal that the A?s will also leave Oakland? Fair question.

11) Braves 2, Astros 0:
? Anderson threw five no-hit IP to get the win.
? d?Arnaud homered for insurance run in 8th inning.
? Braves lead World Series, 2-1

10) Navy 20, Tulsa 17:
? Middies (+11) ran ball for 302 yards, didn?t complete a pass (0-4).
? Navy has a good kicker; he made a 46-yard FG.
? Game was 3-3 at halftime.

9) Heard a guy say once, ?Handicapping early season NBA games is really hard. The bad teams haven?t realized yet that they?re bad.?

8) Nebraska has lost 17 football games by 8 or fewer points since Scott Frost has been their coach, more than any other team in the country during that time. Cornhuskers are 3-5 this year; this would be their fifth losing season in a row.

7) NFL notes:
? Browns? QB Baker Mayfield is starting against Pittsburgh Sunday.
? Spread in Dallas-Minnesota game swung 5.5 points since Thursday, leading to speculation that Dak Prescott (calf) may sit out Sunday night?s game.
? Green Bay TE Robert Tonyan tore his ACL, is out for the year.

6) Back in July, the Cleveland Indians announced that they?ll be called the Guardians starting next season; Wednesday, a Cleveland-based roller derby team, also named the Cleveland Guardians, sued the Indians? franchise in federal court in an effort to block their use of the name.

Once again, no matter what happen$, the lawyer$ will be the real winner$$$$.

5) Someone has to clue me in as to what Crypto currency is; I?m watching TV the other night and Matt Damon is doing a commercial. You know it is big if they hired Matt Damon to do their ad work for them.

My laptop tells me that Crypto is a digital currency that can be used to buy goods and services, but uses an online ledger with strong cryptography to secure online transactions, which sounds like a foreign language to me. I have a hard enough time with regular money.

4) If you?ve never seen a pro hockey game in person, I highly endorse it; to me, it is the one sport that loses the most from in-person to television. So much more to see in person; I like to watch the officials, what great skaters they are.

3) Former NBA Vince Carter holds an unusual record; he had 261 different teammates during his 22-year career, more teammates than anyone else in NBA history. Think I heard that Ish Smith has had 211 teammates; he is the active player that is closest to Carter?s record.

2) NFL commish Roger Goodell banked roughly $128M the last two years, running the most popular sports league in this country.

1) Green Bay 24, Arizona 21
? Packers picked off pass in end zone with o:xx left to preserve win.
? Packers have been positive in turnovers last seven games (+11)
? Green Bay ran ball for 151 yards (4.4/carry)
? Green Bay won last seven games (5-1-1 ATS), scoring 27.0 ppg.

? Plays run in first half: Packers 42, Cardinals 17.
? Arizona still leads NFC West, at 7-1.
? Under Kingsbury, Arizona is 4-7 ATS as a home favorites.
? NFC West non-divisional home favorites are 2-6 ATS.

*******************************

Sunday?s Den: Wrapping up a college football Saturday

13) Michigan State 37, Michigan 33:
? Walker ran for 191 yards, five TD?s; his 23-yard TD run with 5:08 left won the game.
? Michigan led 30-14 with 5:00 left in third quarter.
? Wolverines outgained State, 552-395- they had a 93-yard TD pass.

12) Houston 44, SMU 37:
? SMU tied game on a 45-yard FG with 0:30 left.
? Houston ran the ensuing kickoff back 100 yards for game-winning TD.
? Mustangs lose their first game; both teams are now 7-1.
? Houston QB Tune threw for 412 yards, four TD?s.
? Only 2nd time in last 15 years there was a game-winning kick return in last minute of a game.

11) Clemson 30, Florida State 20
? Early nominee for Bad Beat of the Decade. Seminoles (+9.5) have ball at end of game on their own 33, down 24-20. They throw a pass and start to lateral all over the field, but they go in the wrong direction, and Clemson runs an errant lateral into the end zone to cover the spread by half a point with the clock at 0:00.

If you laid 9.5 with Clemson, Happy Halloween.

10) Baylor 31, Texas 24:
? Baylor is 7-1; can they keep their coach from bolting?
? Texas led 21-10 with 5:00 left in third quarter.
? Longhorns are 4-4, not what they had in mind when they fired their coach LY.

9) Miami 38, Pittsburgh 34:
? Miami had TD plays of 20-57-40 yards in first quarter.
? Pitt QB Pickett threw for 519 yards in a losing cause.
? Panthers had 107 penalty yards, turned ball over twice.

8) West Virginia 38, Iowa State 31:
? Mountaineers outscored ISU 14-0 in 4th quarter.
? Cyclones had TD plays of 70-68 yards in first quarter.
? WVU had two receivers with 100+ receiving yards.
? Iowa State is 5-3, a disappointing team.

7) Upsets of the Week:
? Washington State (+16.5) 34, Arizona State 21
? Bowling Green (+13) 56, Buffalo 44
? Navy (+11) 20, Tulsa 17
? Miami (+9.5) 38, Pitt 34
? West Virginia (+7.5) 38, Iowa State 31
? Purdue (+7.5) 28, Nebraska 23

6) Georgia 34, Florida 7:
? Game was 3-0 near end of first half, then Florida?s offense imploded.
? Georgia scored three TD?s in 2:09 span late in first half to break game open.
? Dawgs? first two TD drives were 11-36 yards; they also had a pick-6.
? Both teams turned ball over three times.

5) Wake Forest 45, Duke 7
? If Dave Clawson is still Wake?s coach next season, some athletic directors need to lose their jobs. This guy should have a better job. Demon Deacons are 8-0 for the first time ever; they?re the smallest school in country in a Power 5 conference.

4) Cincinnati 31, Tulane 12
? When the first poll comes out for the national playoff, will be interesting where the Bearcats land. They beat Notre Dame in South Bend, after all.

3) North Texas 30, Rice 24 OT:
? Owls tied game on 12-yard TD pass with 0:16 left.
? Rice outgained North Texas, 366-289, but had 109 penalty yards.
? Rice converted all four of their 4th down plays.

2) Old Dominion 23, Louisiana Tech 20:
? Monarchs kicked two FG?s in last 1:52.
? Nick Rice kicked 46-yarder at 0:00 for the win.
? ODU had a 100-yard kick return in first half.

1) Ohio State 33, Penn State 24:? Serious question; if James Franklin bolts Happy Valley for either LSU or USC, what %age of Penn State fans will be upset?

? Penn State lost last three games, by 3-2-9 points.
? Buckeyes outgained PSU 466-394.
? Nittany Lions converted 11-16 third down plays.
