Huskies dominate Gamecocks to take PapaJohns.com Bowl
NCAA Football Betting Lines
01/02/2010 - Birmingham, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andre Dixon ran for 126 yards and a touchdown, as Connecticut dominated South Carolina, 20-7, in the PapaJohns.com Bowl.
Zach Frazer completed just 9-of-21 passes for 107 yards, but threw for a touchdown and no interceptions to help the Huskies (8-5) take their third bowl win in four appearances.
The victory ended a season for UConn that was marked by the tragedy of cornerback Jasper Howard being killed on campus, only hours after the Huskies beat Louisville on October 17. UConn lost its next three games, but after an open week capped its season with four consecutive victories.
Stephen Garcia was limited to 129 yards on 16-of-38 completions, with one interception, as South Carolina (7-6) ended its season by losing four of five. Brian Maddox ran for the Gamecocks' lone touchdown.
UConn got on the board near the middle of the first quarter, when Frazer found Kashif Moore for a 37-yard touchdown strike. That capped a nine-play, 66-yard drive, and the Gamecocks turned the ball over on downs after failing to convert a 4th-and-1.
The Huskies took over at the South Carolina 32-yard line and reached the 16 before the drive stalled. Dave Teggart came out and kicked a 33-yard field goal with 3:35 left for a 10-0 lead.
Teggart's 44-yarder a little more than six minutes into the second quarter made it 13-0. The Gamecocks got into UConn territory on the ensuing drive, but again turned the ball over on downs, and it remained a 13-point game at the break.
The third quarter was scoreless, but Garcia fumbled late in the frame to give UConn the ball at the South Carolina 35. The Huskies then turned to Dixon, who ran eight times in the drive. His last was a 10-yard run to get across the goal line and make it a 20-0 contest less than two minutes into the fourth.
The UConn defense did the rest. The Gamecocks were forced into a three-and- out, then had another drive end on an interception by Robert Vaughn. South Carolina did score with 3:24 to play, after Garcia's 38-yard pass to D.L. Moore set up Maddox's two-yard touchdown run.
But the Huskies, feeding Dixon again, ran out the clock from there to secure the win.

Teams that should be in: Michigan State, Indiana
Work left to do: Illinois, Purdue, Michigan, Iowa
Behind the big two, the pecking order might be in a bit of flux. Has Michigan State passed Indiana after handling the Hoosiers in East Lansing? Where is Illinois in that mix? What looked like a four-big league last week could be morphing into five -- and even six is not unthinkable at this point if everything breaks right.
Should be in:
Michigan State [21-8 (8-6), RPI: 20, SOS: 15] The Spartans made it four-for-four on the homestand, a gigantic accomplishment that leaves them in extremely good shape. MSU is only 1-6 on the road and is at Michigan and at Wisconsin to close things out, meaning the date with the Wolverines on Tuesday looms very, very large. Beating Texas early will hold up well, as will the rout of Bradley and the win over BYU, but will 8-8 be enough? It very well could be, as the computer numbers are good, but why chance it?
Indiana [18-9 (8-6), RPI: 24, SOS: 32] Hmm ... good thing the last two are at Northwestern and home to Penn State, because IU might want to get both to feel completely safe after dropping its third in the last four, fading after halftime at Michigan State. Who knew the best nonconference win would be over Southern Illinois, which is a gift that keeps on giving for the Hoosiers. The win over Wisconsin also looks good on the mantel.
Work left to do:
Illinois [21-9 (9-6), RPI: 31, SOS: 25] A good performance at Penn State leaves the Illini in pretty good shape. Can they go to Iowa and take care of business to really look on their way? That's a huge game, as there is a possible cluster of teams that will end at 9-7. Illinois beat Bradley, but has lost to Xavier. A 9-7 mark and a semifinals trip in Chicago could be enough with the computer profile hanging in there, but it would be better not to mess around, clinching at least a tie for third.
Purdue [18-10 (7-7), RPI: 47, SOS: 28] Couldn't get it done at Iowa, but did win at Northwestern to put 9-7 squarely in sight. Where does that leave the Boilermakers, though? Even if they beat Minnesota and Northwestern at home, that won't help the computer numbers. Nonconference wins over Virginia, DePaul and Oklahoma are solid, but not spectacular. The Boilers very well might need an upset in the B10 quarters to have a legit claim.
Michigan [19-10 (7-7), RPI: 55, SOS: 53] Well, Michigan did what it needed to do, winning at Minnesota to take control of its fate. The Wolverines have Michigan State and an already-wrapped-up-the-league Ohio State at home to close, so the chances are there. Win both and we can talk. There is no marquee win yet in the profile, and the Wolverines were splattered in several games against name opponents. A mediocre computer profile fueled by a lack of road wins isn't helping, either.
Iowa [16-12 (8-6), RPI: 80, SOS: 64] For the sake of being complete, we'll add Iowa, this season's Stanford. It's plausible that the Hawkeyes could get to 10-6 (at Penn State, vs. Illinois left), but where does that leave them after a gruesome nonconference performance where the best win was over ... Toledo? Iowa State? Cornell?? If they get to 10-6, we can start to look at what they need to do in the B10 tourney, although my gut sense is that they would need to make the final and have knocked off Ohio State or Wisconsin on the way to have any real claim.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
