Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament Recaps

03/11/2010 -
Greensboro, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sammy Zeglinski scored a season-high 21
points to lead Virginia to a 68-62 victory over Boston College in the first
round of the ACC Tournament at the Greensboro Coliseum.
Virginia (15-15), seeded ninth in the 12-team field, halted a nine-game losing
streak and prevailed despite being without leading scorer and second team All-
ACC selection Sylven Landesberg, suspended by head coach Tony Bennett prior to
the regular-season finale for academic reasons.
Zeglinski helped offset the loss by making 8-of-15 shots, including 5-of-10
from three-point range, with Jeff Jones adding 14 points and Jerome Meyinsse
12 for the Cavaliers, who will face top-seeded Duke in Friday's quarterfinals.
Mike Scott posted a double-double in the win, compiling 11 points and a game-
best 13 rebounds.
Rakim Sanders led Boston College (15-16) with 22 points, while Reggie Jackson
finished with 18 points and nine rebounds in a losing cause.
Virginia trailed 23-17 after Sanders buried a three-pointer near the midway
point of the first half, but took control with a 17-2 run over the next 8 1/2
minutes. Zeglinski's fourth triple of the period put the Cavaliers up 32-25
with 2:12 left before intermission, and the lead was extended to nine points
on Scott's fastbreak dunk 25 seconds later.
Boston College pulled within 34-27 at the break on a Jackson layup with 1:16
left in the opening period.
The Cavaliers' advantage swelled to as many as 11 points early in the second
half, but an 8-0 burst capped by Dallas Elmore's layup with 8:44 to go cut the
Eagles' deficit to 49-46. Sanders scored the first six points of the spurt.
Virginia answered by scoring seven of the next nine points, however, with
another Zeglinski trey pushing the margin to 56-48 with 5:41 left. The Eagles
would get no closer than five points the rest the way.
Zeglinski led all scorers with 16 first-half points on 6-of-9 shooting.

Big Ten Conference odds
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.
