01-13-20 | Clemson v. LSU UNDER 70.5 | Top | 25-42 | Win | 100 | 226 h 33 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the UNDER Clemson/LSU. Clemson had its hands full in its bowl win over Ohio State. The Buckeyes had a 16-0 lead at one point, but poise, veteran experience, talent and great coaching saw the Tigers then pull away for the hard-fought 29-23 victory. LSU steamrolled Oklahoma 63-28 to advance. I think it's interesting to note that Clemson' QB Trevor Lawrence had the biggest rushing game of his career vs. the stingy Buckeyes with 107 yards on the ground with one score. I can't see Joe Burrow duplicating his monster offensive performance in his previous game. Decimating the Sooners is one thing, but this Clemson defense is an entirely different animal. Key Trends: - Clemson has seen the total go under in its last three "dome" games. - LSU has seen the total dip under the numbber in three of its last four after a cover as a double-digit favorite. The verdict: Despite the offensive talent on the field, I envision this one as more of a "chess match" than a wide open "shootout." This number is indeed a little high; play the under! | |||||||
01-06-20 | Miami-OH v. UL-Lafayette OVER 54.5 | Top | 17-27 | Loss | -107 | 33 h 23 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the OVER Miami Ohio/Louisiana Lafayette. I'm expecting a shootout here. Miami Ohio is led by Brett Gabbert, who had 2,163 passing yards, along with 11 TD's and eight INT's. Gabbert and company have their work cut out for them today as they'll look to keep pace with one of the highest scoring teams in the nation. UL Lafayette averages 38.8 points and 501.3 yards per game this year. That ranks it 14th and 11th respectively. QB Levi Lewis has 24 TD's and four INT's. Key Trends: - Miami has seen the total go over in nine of its last 14 when the total in the contest is set between 49.5 and 56 points. - UL Lafayette has seen the total eclipse the posted number in ten of its last 11 non-conference contests. The verdict: The Ragin Cajuns do not have a good defense. Look for these two teams to open up the playbook and to put on an offensive show for the nation tonight; play the over! | |||||||

01-02-20 | Boston College v. Cincinnati -7 | Top | 6-38 | Win | 100 | 29 h 35 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Cincinnati. BC is 6-6 and I think it'll have its hands full here vs. 10-3 Cincinnati. BC lost three of five down the stretch, and only became eligible in its final game of the season by beating the Panthers. Cincinnati lost two in a row to end the year, once in the regular season finale to Memphis and then once again to the Tigers in the conference championship game. The Eagles will be without coach Steve Addazio, who was let go. Rich Gunnell is the interim. BC relies heavily upon the run game of AJ Dillon, who had 1,600 yards on the year, but who will be sitting this one out as he prepares for the NFL draft. The Bearcats have a powerful RB in Michael Warren, who had 1,300 yards and 16 TD's. QB Desmond Ridder is a dual threat and he finished with 17 TD's and nine INT's.) Key Trends: - BC is just 1-3 ATS in its last four when playing with two weeks or more of rest. - Cincinnati is 5-1 ATS in its last six off a road loss (including 2-0 ATS this season.) The verdict: Injuries to Dillon will prove to be too much for BC to overcome here; lay the points! | |||||||

My 10* BOWL TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the UNDER Baylor/Georgia. 11-2. That's the record of both teams in the Sugar Bowl this year. Baylor's 11 wins ties the most in program history. Overall the Bears average 35.2 PPG, led by dual threat QB Charlie Brewer, who had 30 TD's and six INT's. Defensively though is where Baylor made the biggest strides this season, it enters conceding just 19.3 PPG, led by LB Terrel Bernard, who has at least ten tackles in four of his last six games. Georiga was throttled by LSU in the SEC Championship Game, so it'l be plenty eager to bounce back here. Overall Jake Fromm had 22 TD's and five INT's. The Bulldogs average 31.2 PPG, but their strength this year has been on the defensive side, as they concede only 12.5 PPG. LSU was the only team to eclipse the 20 points plateu on them. Key Trends: - Baylor has seen the total go under in three of its las four as a neutral field underdog. - Georgia has seen the total go under the number in three of its last four following a SU loss. The verdict: Both teams concede less than 4.7 YPG and I believe these elite defensive units will become the main story lines in tomorrow's summaries; play the under! | |||||||
01-01-20 | Michigan +7.5 v. Alabama | Top | 16-35 | Loss | -115 | 410 h 18 m | Show |
My 10* BOWL GAME OF THE YEAR is on Michigan. I think Michigan's defense can keep it competitive in this one. Each of the Wolverines last four victories came by at least 25 points, as QB Shea Patterson finished with 22 TD's and six INT's. Michigan's strength was on defense though, especially against the run, conceding only 3.03 YPC. The Alabama defense looked shaky this year. Note that it conceded at least 46 points in two of its last four games. The Tide had a fairly easy schedule as well this year. QB Mac Jones is a capable backup for Tua Tagovailoa, but I give the nod to Patterson in the QB matchup department for sure. Key Trends: - The Tide are a poor 5-14 ATS in their last 19 following a SU loss. - The Wolverines are 4-1 ATS in their last five vs. teams with winning records. The verdict: Alabama is "supposed" to be in the Playoff, but it's not this year. The Citrus Bowl isn't that big and I believe the Tide come in disinterested. I also believe their defense is vastly over-rated. While I do think the outright is possible, in the end let's grab the points! | |||||||
12-31-19 | Texas v. Utah -7 | Top | 38-10 | Loss | -108 | 12 h 26 m | Show |
My 10* ULTIMATE OF THE ULTIMATE is on Utah. Texas has two very good offensive players in QB Sam Ehlinger and in RB Keaontay Ingram. Ehlinger had 29 TD's and the Longhorns average 35 PPG. Ingram had 795 yards rushing and six TD's, but he's listed as questionable for this game with an ankle injury. In fact, several key players on both sides of the ball are questionable for this one for Texas. Overall the Longhorns conceded 28.9 PPG. The Utes average 34 PPG and they concede just 13.2. They got upset by Oregon 37-15 in the Pac 12 Championship, a loss which coach Kyle Whittingham won't take lightly in my opinion. With one last chance for national redemption, I like the Utes behind QB Tyler Huntley to deliver the goods here. RB Zack Moss finished with 15 rushing TD's and Huntley had 18 TDs, compared to just four INTs. Of note that Utah comes into this bowl game with zero significant injuries. Key Trends: - Utes are 8-1 ATS in their last nine as a favorite. - Utah is 4-1 ATS in its last five vs. teams with winning records. - Texas is 1-5 ATS in its last six following an ATS win. The verdict: I believe the Utes' suffocating defense proves to be too much for the Longhorns to contend with tonight; lay the points! | |||||||
12-30-19 | Virginia +14.5 v. Florida | Top | 28-36 | Win | 100 | 35 h 51 m | Show |
My 10* play is on UVA. Virginia was crushed 62-17 by Clemson in the ACC Title game, but the Cavs made big strides this season by finishing 9-4. The Cavaliers will have their hands full with a Florida team which finished 10-2. Virginia is led by QB Bryce Perkins. The Cavs average 32.4 PPG and they concede 26.5. Florida is led by Kyle Trask, who has 24 TD's and just six INT's. Overall the Gators average 33.3 PPG and concede 14.4. Key Trends: - UVA is 3-1 ATS in its last four after a loss by 17 points or more. - The Cavs are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 after a loss vs. the spread. - Florida is only 2-4 ATS in its last six when playing with two weeks or more of rest. The verdict: I see UVA hanging around late and while I'll stop short in calling for an outright upset, all signs point to this one being a lot more competitive than what Las Vegas is trying to lead us to believe; grab the points! | |||||||
12-30-19 | Mississippi State v. Louisville OVER 62.5 | Top | 28-38 | Win | 100 | 31 h 46 m | Show |
My 10* play is on the OVER in the Music City Bowl. Mississippi State had to win three of its final four to become eligible at 6-6, while Louisville was 7-5. The Cards love to run the ball, averaging 214.1 YPG, but that plays directly into the strength of the Bulldogs' defense. Instead though Louisville will turn to Micale Cunningham, who will test a porous Mississippi State secondary which concedes 241.2 YPG. The Bulldogs should have a balanced attack here as well. Mississippi State runs the ball as well, averaging 226.9 YPG and note that the Cardinals are terrible vs. the run, conceding 211.0 yards epr game on the ground. Louisville is also allowing 235.3 YPG through the air, so Bulldogs' QB Garrett Shrader will have his opportunities. Key Trends: - Mississippi State has seen the total go over the number in four of its last five as a favorite. - Louisville has seen the total eclipse the posted number in six of its last eight following a loss by 21 points or more. The verdict: Yes both teams like to run, but each knows how to move the football. I see weaknesses on defense and strengths on offense. This one has "shootout" written all over it in my opinion; play the over! | |||||||
12-28-19 | Clemson v. Ohio State OVER 63 | Top | 29-23 | Loss | -101 | 35 h 53 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the OVER Clemson/OSU. A couple of 13-0 teams collide in the Fiesta Bowl and the winner will be headed to the Championship Game. It's going to go one of two ways obviously, either a low-scoring defensive battle, or a high-scoring shootout. And in my opinion, obviously it's going to be the latter. Both teams rank among the best of the best in the country on both sides of the ball, but I've been most impressed by each team's offense. Note that Clemson has averaged 54.2 PPG over its last six games. Note that Ohio State is the No. 1 ranked offensive team in the nation by averaging 48.7 PPG. Key Trends: - The Tigers have interestingly seen the total go over the number in three of their last four after two straight covers as the favorite. - The Buckeyes have seen the total eclipse the posted number in ten of their last 15 when the total in the contest is set between 56.5 and 63. The verdict: They say defense wins championships, and while that may be true, to reach the championship game, I expect these two teams to open up the playbook and push the pace from the opening kickoff, until the final whistle; play the over! | |||||||
12-28-19 | Memphis +7 v. Penn State | Top | 39-53 | Loss | -105 | 27 h 34 m | Show |
My 10* BEATDOWN is on Memphis. The Tigers are a good team. They've won seven in a row. That includes a 29-24 victory over Cincinnati in the AAC Championship a couple of weeks ago. QB Brady White has 3,560 yards passing to go along with 33 TD's and only nine INT's. RB Kenneth Gainwell has 1,425 yards rushing, which is sixth best in the country. Overall the Tigers post a whopping 39.3 PPG. Penn State opened with eight straight victories, but it closed by losing two of three. The Nittany Lions ended their season with an uninspiring 27-6 win over Rutgers. QB Sean Clifford has 2,521 passing yards with 22 TD's and only six INT's. Overall the Nittany Lions average 30.3 PPG and concede 14.7. Key Trends: - Memphis is interestingly 4-0 ATS in its last four after a close win by seven points or less over a conference rival. - Penn State is already just 2-3 ATS this year after a win by 21 points or more. The verdict: I think Memphis has a very realistic chance of winning this one outright. I believe that Penn State's defense is going to be pushed to the brink. That said, let's grab the points! | |||||||
12-27-19 | Washington State v. Air Force OVER 68 | Top | 21-31 | Loss | -110 | 38 h 31 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the OVER WSU/Air Force. Yes the Cougars stumbled in their final game of the year vs. Washington, managing just 13 points in the setback, but I think that Anthony Gordon and this "Air Raid" offense take out their frustrations on the Falcons today. Gordon had 5,228 passing yards with 45 TDs and just 16 INTs. Air Force's defense is ranked better than its offense (20th and 40th respectively). The Falcons are the No. 1 ranked rushing offense in the nation with 292.5 YPG. WSU has a weak defensive front and I expect the Cougars to be "on their heels" from start to finish. Key Trends: - WSU has seen the total go over the number in four of its last five after a two weeks or longer break. - Air Force has seen the total go over in six of its last eight as the favorite. The verdict: With WSU throwing the ball to the cows come home and with Air Force exploiting this weak Cougars' defense, look for this total to soar over sooner, rather than later! | |||||||
12-27-19 | Michigan State v. Wake Forest +4 | Top | 27-21 | Loss | -110 | 31 h 36 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Wake Forest. Michigan State was 6-6 this year. It closed out by beating bottom feeders Rutgers and Maryland to reach eligibility. Brian Lewerke leads an offense that averages 238.5 yards per game through the air. MSU's run game is poor though, averaging only 123 YPG, which ranks it outside the top 100. The Deacons though average 297.8 YPG through the air. MSU hasn't been nearly as sharp in defending the pass this year, conceding 210.6 YPG. QB Jamie Newman has 2,693 passing yards with 23 TDs and ten INTs. Key Trends: - Michigan State is just 3-5 ATS as a favorite this season. - The Spartans are 2-4 ATS in their last six when playing on two or more weeks of rest. - The Deacons are 8-2 ATS in their last ten after allowing 37 points or more in their previous outing (including 2-0 ATS this season.) The verdict: I think that Newman keeps his team competitive throughout and while clearly the outright isn't out of the question, in the end I'll recommend to grab the points! | |||||||
12-26-19 | Pittsburgh v. Eastern Michigan +11.5 | Top | 34-30 | Win | 100 | 36 h 24 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on EMU. Pitt lost its final two games of the year, including a 26-19 home loss to Boston College. EMU also lost its finale, falling 34-26 to Kent State. Pitt' QB Kenny Pickett has a weak 10:9 TD:INT this year. The Panthers average only 20.1 PPG, while conceding 21.8. Eastern Michigan is averaging 29.1 PPG and it's conceding 30.3. But QB Mike Glass III won't be going down without a fight today in my opinion. Note that Glass finished with a 22:10 TD:INT. Key Trends: - The Panthers are just 1-4 ATS in their last five neutral site games. - The Eagles are 14-4 ATS in their last 18 following an ATS loss. - EMU is a sharp 17-5 ATS in its last 22 non-conference games. The verdict: I think the offensively challenged Panthers have a difficult time keeping pace and while I'll stop short in calling for the outright upset, everything definitely points to a much closer battle than what this spread would suggest in my opinion; grab the points! | |||||||
12-24-19 | BYU v. Hawaii +2 | Top | 34-38 | Win | 100 | 57 h 23 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Hawaii. Both teams were on quite the role until their final contest, losing badly in their finales. BYU had won five in a row and averaged 39.8 PPG during, however it came up short 13-3 vs. SDSU in its final game of the year. Hawaii lost 31-10 to Boise State in the MWC Championship Game. The Warriors average 33.6 PPG and they allow 31.7. QB Cole McDonald led his team to a 6-2 record at home as well. BYU only allows 24.4 PPG, but it only averages 28. QB Zach Wilson has 2,108 passing yards and 11 TD's. Key Trends: - BYU is just 8-13 ATS in its last 21 as a favorite (including 0-6 ATS this season.) - The Cougars are only 2-4 ATS on the road this year. - Hawaii is 3-1 ATS in its last four after a loss by 21 points or more. The verdict: Yes the Warriors are terrible defensively, but I think that Wilson and this Cougar offense will struggle to keep pace down the stretch with the home side; grab the point/s! | |||||||
12-23-19 | Marshall v. Central Florida OVER 60 | Top | 25-48 | Win | 100 | 30 h 51 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BONANZA is on the OVER Marshall/UCF. I'm expecting a complete shootout from start to finish between the 8-4 Marshall Thundering Herd and the 9-3 UCF Golden Knights this afternoon. Note these two teams had a similar opponent this year, as Marshall lost 42-17 to Cincinnati and the Knights fell 27-24 to the Bearcats. The Herd average 24.8 PPG and I think they're going to have to open things up here to keep pace with the high-flying Knights, who average 43 PPG. Key Trends: - Marshall has seen the total go over the number in nine of its last 13 as an underdog (including in two of three this season.) - UCF has seen the total eclipse the posted number in seven of its last ten when the total falls between 56.5 and 63 points (including in three of four this season.) The verdict: I think these defensive units take a back seat to these capable offenses; play the over! | |||||||
12-21-19 | Washington v. Boise State UNDER 49.5 | Top | 38-7 | Win | 100 | 30 h 24 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BEATDOWN is on the UNDER WSU/Boise State. These are two mediocre offenses and two very good defenses going head to head. When you add it all up, I think this number is too high. Washington beat Washington State 31-13 in its regular season finale. Note though that Huskies' QB Jacob Eason had just two TD passes over his last three games. Boise State is led by Jaylon Henderson, who became the starter in mid November and who finished with 1,032 yards and 11 TD's. But as stated off the top, it's been each team's defense which has been its strength, with the Broncos allowing only 20.6 PPG and leading the MWC with 37 sacks, while the Huskies concede 20.4 PPG, most recently holding the Cougars air raid offense to 308 yards. Key Trends: - Washington has seen the total go under the number in ten of its last 13 off a win by ten points or more over a conference rival. - Boise State has seen the total dip below the posted number in its last four games when the line in the contest is set between +3 and -3. The verdict: Look for these defensive units to be the main story lines in tomorrow's summaries; play the under! | |||||||
12-21-19 | Central Michigan +3.5 v. San Diego State | Top | 11-48 | Loss | -105 | 73 h 18 m | Show |
My 10* GAME OF THE WEEK is on CMU. I think the Chips throw everything at this stiny Aztecs team and while I obviously wouldn't be shocked by an outright upset, I'll in the end take the points in a contest which I think'll be decided by whichever of these hungry teams has its hands on the ball last. CMU was 1-11 last year, but it finished 8-5 this season. The Chips won three in a row before falling 26-24 to Miami Ohio in the MAC Title game. So far the MAC has dominated early in these Bowl games and I like that trend to continue here with Quinten Dormady leading the charge. Dormady had 2,148 passing yards with a 14:6 TD:INT. RB's Kobe Lewis and Jon Ward each finished with 1,000 yards rushing this season. SDSU only allows 12.8 PPG, but I think the Aztecs struggle to contain this balanced offense of CMU. SDSU does not have a big running game, which makes Ryan Agnew, who had 2,175 passing yards and an 11:5 TD:INT, very one dimensional here. Key Trends: - CMU is 4-1 ATS in its last five as an underdog. - The Chips are 3-1 ATS in non-conference games this season. - SDSU is just 4-9 ATS in its last 13 vs. teams with winning records. The verdict: For all the reasons listed above, grab the points! | |||||||
12-20-19 | Kent State v. Utah State -6.5 | Top | 51-41 | Loss | -109 | 34 h 47 m | Show |
My 10* SPECIAL is on Utah State. This is only the third time in Kent State's history that it's been to a bowl game. The Golden Flashes finished only 6-6, but a three-game win streak at the end likely helped in their cause ultimatley. Utah State though has the much better defense and I think that the unit will prove to be the difference maker here. Aggies' QB Jordan Love is also a key factor here, as he's projected to be a top 10 QB in the upcoming NFL draft. The Flashes counter with Dustin Crum, who has 2,333 yards passing this year (Love has 3,085.) Key Trends: - Kent State is 5-7 ATS in its last 12 non-conference games (including just 1-3 ATS this year.) - Utah State is 16-5 ATS in its last 21 as a favorite (including 5-2 ATS this season.) The verdict: I think Love will go ballistic on this suspect Kent secondary and I like the Aggies to shut down Crum; lay the points! | |||||||
12-14-19 | Army v. Navy OVER 40 | Top | 7-31 | Loss | -110 | 56 h 49 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the OVER Army/Navy. Army got destroyed 52-31 at Hawaii in its regular season finale to finish the year 5-7. The Black Knights will be laying everything they have on the field of play today as they look to pull off the big upset and to erase the frustrations from a poor overall campaign. Navy finished 9-2 and it ended the regular season on a two-game win streak. Both teams run the triple option. Both teams have been decent on both sides of the ball, but especially on the offensive side. The Golden Knights average 30.3 PPG and they concede 22.3, while the Midshipmen average 39.3 PPG and concede 24.2. Key Trends: - Army has seen the total go over the number in five of its last six when playing with two weeks rest. - Navy has seen the total eclipse the posted number in eight of its last ten vs. teams with losing records. The verdict: Malcom Perry is one of the most dynamic QB's in the nation and I expect the Navy veteran to push the pace. Both teams know how to move the ball on offense and I look for that to translate into production on the field of play today; play the over! | |||||||
12-07-19 | Cincinnati v. Memphis UNDER 57.5 | Top | 24-29 | Win | 100 | 102 h 4 m | Show |
My 10* play is on Cincinnati/Memphis UNDER. The 10-2 Bearcats meet the 11-1 Tigers for the AAC Championship and in my opinion, this one sets up as more of a "chess match" than a "shootout." Note that the Tigers actually defeated the Bearcats 34-24 in these team's respective regular season finales. The victory earned Memphis the right to host this game. Bearcats' starting QB Desmond Ridder was held back in that loss because of an injured shoulder and if he does get the call today, one has to wonder about his health/form obviously? His backup Ben Bryant struggled for 229 passing yards and two INT's, while also getting sacked five times. Look for the Bearcats to once again run the offense through RB Michael Warren II. Memphis' QB Brady White has 3,307 passing yards this season with 32 TD's and eight INT's. But with the visitors looking to control the clock while they have the ball, I think today's re-match definitely sets up as much more of a defensive affair. Key Trends: - Cincinnati has seen the total go under in 11 of its last 15 as an underdog. - Memphis has seen the total dip under in three of its last four after scoring 31 points or more in five straight games. The verdict: For all the reasons listed above, play the under! | |||||||
12-07-19 | UL-Lafayette +7 v. Appalachian State | Top | 38-45 | Push | 0 | 99 h 34 m | Show |
My 10* play is on Lafayette. To say this is a "revenge" game would be an understatement, as App State has won seven straight in this series (is 4-3 ATS in those games.) UL Lafayette held on for a win over UL Monroe last week, with QB Levi Lewis going for 270 yards and three TD's. I think he'll have enough to keep his team in this one late. And he'll of course be leaning heavily on a run game which averages a whopping 274 YPG this season, led by Raymond Calais. The Mountaineers like to run the ball as well behind the strong play of Darrynton Evans. QB Zack Thomas though has also been great, with ten TD's and no picks over his last three games. Key Trends: - The Cajuns are 4-1 ATS in their last five as a road dog of seven points or less. - Louisiana Lafayette is 4-0 ATS in its last four in revenging an upset loss against an opponent as the favorite. - App State is an unimpressive 3-3 ATS at home this year. The verdict: App State smashed UL Lafayette in the 2018 Sun Belt Championship game by 49 points. Look for the Cajuns to keep this one competitive until the very end; grab the points! | |||||||
12-06-19 | Oregon v. Utah OVER 45.5 | Top | 37-15 | Win | 100 | 30 h 13 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the OVER Oregon/Utah. How will Justin Herbert and the Ducks upset the defensive minded Utes in the Pac 12 Championship Game? Definitely not by playing it safe and hoping for Tyler Huntley and company to make the first mistake. That'd be a recipie for disaster for Oregon. Instead, with the underdog airing it out from start to finish, I'm expecting a faster-paced affair overall and I ultimately believe this will then lead to a high-scoring "shootout" once it's all said and done. Key Trends: - The Ducks have seen the total go over the number in three of their last four vs. schools with winning records. - The Utes have seen the total soar over in four of its last five after two straight covers as a double-digit favorite. The verdict: Faster paced = more points in my opinion. This number is low, play the over! | |||||||
11-30-19 | Oklahoma v. Oklahoma State UNDER 69.5 | Top | 34-16 | Win | 100 | 79 h 50 m | Show |
My 10* play on the UNDER Oklahoma/OK State. The Cowboys have only beaten the Sooners twice since 2010. Oklahoma has won ten of 11 games so far. Overall Oklahoma averages 45.3 PPG, led by Jalen Hurts, while allowing only 25.5 PPG. OKS has won eight of 11 games. The Cowboys average 35 PPG and they concede 26.5, led by Hawaii transfer Dru Brown, who makes his second start of the season in placed of the injured Spencer Sanders. Key Trends: - Oklahoma has already seen the total go under in three of four this season when the total is set between 63.5 and 70. - OKS has seen the total stay under in both games that it's played as an underdog this year already. The verdict: I think these under-rated defensive units become the mian story lines in tomorrow's summaries; play the under! | |||||||
11-30-19 | North Carolina -8.5 v. NC State | Top | 41-10 | Win | 100 | 78 h 51 m | Show |
My 10* play is on UNC. NC State is going to try and play spoiler here to the 5-6 Tar Heels, but I think that UNC's depth on offense will prove to be too much for the now eliminated Wolfpack to handle down the stretch. The Tar Heels come in off a 56-7 win over Mercer last week. The Wolfpack have lost five straight and while the thought of playing "spoiler" is a nice one, I simply don't think it's going to matter in this particular instance. Outside of a two-point loss to GT last weekend, each of NC State's last four losses has come by at least two TD's. Key Trends: - UNC is 2-0 ATS in its last two as a road favorite in the 7.5 to 14 points range. - The Tar Heels are 2-0 ATS in their last two off a home victory by 17 points or more. - NC State is just 2-4 ATS in its last six off a road loss vs. a conference rival. The verdict: UNC QB Sam Howell has 32 TD passes this year. Expect Howell to destroy his over-matched competition today and lay the points with confidence! | |||||||
11-29-19 | Iowa v. Nebraska +6 | Top | 27-24 | Win | 100 | 74 h 8 m | Show |
My 10* play is on Nebraska. Iowa's 8-3 and it would love another win here to bolster its bowl bid. Nebraska though is completely desperate for one more victory, as it enters at 5-6. Iowa comes in off back-to-back victories over Minnesota and Illinois. The Cornhuskers have a balanced attack led by QB Nate Stanley. The Cornhuskers have lost four of their last five, but they kept their slim bowl chances alive with a victory over Maryland last weekend. Nebraska QB Adrian Martinez has had an up and down year, but he'll have his opportunities today vs. an Iowa defense which concedes 191 passing yards per contest. Key Trends: - Iowa is just 6-7 ATS in its last 13 on the road. - The Hawkeyes are only 3-4 ATS in their last seven after a two-game home stand. - Nebraska is a perfect 2-0 ATS in its last two after scoring 50 points or more in its last game. The verdict: In a contest which I see coming down to whichever of these teams has its hands on the ball last, I'm going to grab the points! | |||||||
11-29-19 | Virginia Tech v. Virginia UNDER 48 | Top | 30-39 | Loss | -109 | 72 h 39 m | Show |
My 10* PLAY is on the UNDER VT/UVA. Both teams enter enter this rivarly game at 8-3. Each enters on a three game win streak as well. VT has won this matchup 15 times in a row, including a higher-scoring 34-31 win in last year's matchup. I think the overall situation that each finds itself in, coming into this contest will see a much more defensive affair this time around. This is a big game, as the winner take the ACC Coastal Division crown and will be in the ACC Championship game. VT's defense though is on top form, having posted back-to-back shutouts, including 28-0 over Pittsburgh last weekend. Tech QB Hendon Hooker has 1,134 passing yards, ten TD's and no INT's, along with 262 rushing yards and four rushing TD's. UVA beat Liberty 55-27 last weekend, but it was the first time since 2005 that the Cavs have eclipsed the 50 points plateau. Key Trends: - Virginia Tech has seen the total go under the number in its last three after three straight victories over conference rivals. - UVA has seen the total go under in four of its last five as a home dog. The verdict: While these teams have played to many high-scoring games in the past vs. each other, the overall situation and numbers/trends all point to the "under" as the correct call this year; play the under! | |||||||
11-28-19 | Ole Miss v. Mississippi State -2.5 | Top | 20-21 | Loss | -109 | 56 h 24 m | Show |
My 10* CLASH OF THE TITANS on Mississippi State. Mississippi State has one last chance to become bowl eligible. At 5-6 the Bulldogs still need one more victory to earn a chance at a Bowl berth. Well, what better opponent than 4-7 Mississippi, who has now officially been eliminated from contention? The only two victories for the Rebels in conference play this year have come against the two worst teams (Vanderbilt and Arkansas.) Ole Miss just gave up 58 points to LSU and it struggles to put points on the board most weeks. MSU has had a difficult campaign as well, but with senior Tommy Stevens back under center, I think the home side delivers the goods in the Egg Bowl. Key Trends: - Ole Miss concedes 298.7 YPG through the air. - Mississippi State is still 15-6 ATS in its last 21 at home. The verdict: Ole Miss ranks among the absolute worst vs. the pass and I think Stevens is going to take full advantage; lay the short points! | |||||||
11-26-19 | Western Michigan -7 v. Northern Illinois | Top | 14-17 | Loss | -108 | 30 h 23 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Western Michigan. Western Michigan is 7-4 and NIU is only 4-6. The Huskies need to sweep their remaining games to become eligible, but WMU is looking to better its bowl berth as well. I think the Mustangs deliver the knock out blow for the Huskies here though as they enjoy significant advantages both on the field of play and in the stats/trends. WMU needs to win this game have CMU lose this week to earn the MAC West title. WMU comes in out of its bye week as well, rested and focussed on the task at hand. The Huskies have lost two of their last three in blowout fashion, most recently a 45-17 home loss to EMU. Key Trends: - NIU is 0-4 ATS in its last four when playing on Tuesday. - WMU is 4-1 ATS in its last five as a favorite. The verdict: Expect the Mustangs' superior offense to be the difference in this one; lay the points with confidence! | |||||||
11-23-19 | Kansas State v. Texas Tech OVER 55 | Top | 30-27 | Win | 100 | 29 h 39 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BLOWOUT OF THE NIGHT is on the K-State/Texas Tech OVER. K-State is 6-4. The Wildcats have beaten heavyweights Oklahoma and Mississippi State, but lost to Texas and West Virginia. Texas Tech is 4-6 and it needs to win out to become eligible. K-State though will look to stop the two-game slide this week vs. an atrocious Red Raiders' defense. The Wildcats have a balanced attack with Skylar Thompson under center, so far he has a 10:3 TD/INT ratio, while the run game produces 192.9 YPG. Texas Tech QB Jeff Duffey has only played in six games and he already has 2,100 passing yards and 14:3 TD:INT. Overall the Red Raiders put up 470.2 YPG on offense ranked 17th in the country. Defensively though TT allows 480 yards per game, including 309.8 per game through the air. Key Trends: - The over is 5-1-1 in the Raiders last seven conference contests. - The over is 9-3-1 in TT's last 13 at home. The verdict: I look for a faster-paced, wide open shootout between these two hungry schools; play the over! | |||||||
11-23-19 | Nebraska -5 v. Maryland | Top | 54-7 | Win | 100 | 26 h 32 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER on Nebraska. Nebraska is 4-6 and it only has two games left to become eligible. At 3-7, Maryland is officially out of contention for a bowl berth now. Yes the Terps would love to play spoiler here, but I don't see it happening vs. the desperate Huskers, who I expect to risk life and limb today to pull off the victory. Nebraska has lost four straight, most recently falling to Wisconsin last tie out. Maryland has lost five straight after getting crushed by Ohio State last year. The Huskers looked decent in defeat last week, falling 37-21 to a strong Wisconsin side. QB Adrian Martinez is going to be a difference maker here in my opinion. He has 1,712 passing yards and an 8:7 TD:INT. But he also has nearly 500 rushing yards and another seven TD's on the ground. The Terps come out of their bye week with nothing to play for. In their 73-14 loss to Ohio State they only attempted 17 passes compared to 32 rushing attempts. Key Trends: - Nebraska is 7-3-1 ATS in its last 11 road games vs. a team with a losing record. - Maryland is a pathetic 3-11 ATS in its last 14 following its bye week. The verdict: As mentioned above, I believe that Huskers' QB Martinez has a big opportunity here and I expect the senior to make the most of it; lay the points! | |||||||
11-22-19 | Colorado State v. Wyoming OVER 50.5 | Top | 7-17 | Loss | -106 | 39 h 41 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the OVER Colorado State/Wyoming. Key Trends: Analysis posted shortly. | |||||||
11-21-19 | NC State v. Georgia Tech OVER 49 | Top | 26-28 | Win | 100 | 37 h 50 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BIG TIGER is on the OVER NC State/Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech is coming off a terrible 45-0 road shutout loss at Virginia Tech and it's now just 2-8 on the year. Tech is only averaging 16.5 PPG this year, but it'll do its best to play the role of spoiler here, as 4-6 NC State has to win out for eligibility. This is it for the Wolfpack, who limp in having lost four straight. Both teams struggle offensively, but I think we'll have a shootout on our hands once it's all said and done tonight. Key Trends: - NC State has seen the total go over the number in six of its last eight after a loss by ten points or more vs. a conference rival. - GT has seen the total eclipse the posted number in six of its last eight when the total in the contest is set between 42.5 and 49. The verdict: I think the home side opens up the playbook here to try and pull off the upset. And with the Wolfpack also laying everything on the line to keep their playoff hopes alive, I look for this one to indeed sneak above the posted number sooner, rather than later! | |||||||
11-20-19 | Akron +31.5 v. Miami-OH | Top | 17-20 | Win | 100 | 34 h 20 m | Show |
My 10* CLASH OF THE TITANS is Akron. Akron is 0-10 and playing out the tail end of a miserable season. But the Zips catch a complacent Miami Ohio team tonight that's won four straight, including a 44-3 win over Bowling Green last week to earn the Mac Eastern division title. Akron has terrible numbers, but I think the home side goes up early and then coasts the rest of the way as it looks to avoid any serious injuries. Key Trends: - Akron is 6-2 ATS in its last eight vs. teams with winning records. - Miami Ohio is just 3-7 ATS in its last ten as a home favorite. - The RedHawks are only 1-4 ATS in their last five after allowing 14 points or less in their last game. The verdict: This line is out of control. Yes the Zips are horrible, but the overall situation and this massive spread makes the visitors the correct call here in my opinion; grab the points! | |||||||
11-19-19 | Ohio v. Bowling Green +18 | Top | 66-24 | Loss | -107 | 35 h 41 m | Show |
My 10* GAME OF THE WEEK is on Bowling Green. At 4-6, Ohio needs to sweep its remaing games for a shot at Bowl eligibility. At 3-7, Bowling Green has already been eliminated. That won't stop the home side from trying to play spoiler here though. I think the Falcons do indeed use the thought of eliminating Ohio from contention as motivation today and I expect them to keep this one close until the final moments. Bowling Green comes in off a terrible 44-3 loss to Miami Ohio last week, a setback which put it out of Bowl contention. With nothing to lose though, I expect the home side to try and push the pace throughout. Ohio battled WMU and earned an OT period after it punched a last second TD in regulation. However, its hopes were then dashed in the 37-34 loss ultimately. It was the second straight loss by three points or less and I believe the mentally down-trodden Bobcats come out flat here. Key Trends: - Ohio ranks eight in the MAC allowing 432.6 YPG. - The Bobcats are a terrible 1-6 ATS in their last seven conference contests. The verdict: The Falcons are a bad team, but the overall situation highly favors them in this situatoinal spot bet in my opinion; grab the points! | |||||||
11-16-19 | Arizona v. Oregon UNDER 68.5 | Top | 6-34 | Win | 100 | 36 h 0 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the UNDER Arizona/Oregon. Arizona is 4-5 and it's running out of time to qualify for a berth. The magic number is of course six and winning on the road vs. the 8-1 Ducks likely isn't going to happen. Clearly though the only way that the Wildcats could pull off a monumental upset in this one would be to try and control the pace of this game. And that means keeping the ball out of Oregon's hands as much as possible. Arizona needs two more victories. After this its Utah and Arizona State. The Ducks are led by QB Justin Herbert, who has a 24:2 TD:INT. Key Trends: - Arizona has seen the total go under in three of four already this year after playing a game at home. - Oregon has seen the total go under in ten of its last 15 when the total is greater than or equal to 63. The verdict: Neither team plays great defensively, but I think the overall situation each finds itself coming in, combined with the above trends, do indeed make the "under" as the correct call here! | |||||||
11-16-19 | Tulane -5.5 v. Temple | Top | 21-29 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 45 m | Show |
My 10* WAKE-AND-MAKE is on Tulane. Tulane broke its two game losing streak with a win last weekend to become bowl eligible and I like the Waves to carry that momentum over here. Tulane's ground game ranks in the top ten in the country, averaging 261.2 rushing yards per game. The Owls also broke a two-game slide to become eligible, but with a game vs. Cincinnati up next, I think the home side gets caught looking ahead here. Key Trends: - Tulane is 3-1 ATS in its last four as a road favorite of seven points or less. - The Green Wave is 3-1 ATS in its last four when playing with two or more weeks of rest. - Temple is only 3-4 ATS in its last seven after conceding 14 points or less in its last contest. The verdict: I like Tulane's ground game to slowly break down Temples defense; lay the points! | |||||||
11-15-19 | Louisiana Tech v. Marshall -2.5 | Top | 10-31 | Win | 100 | 100 h 51 m | Show |
My 10* GAME OF THE WEEK is on Marshall. All good things have to come to an end. Louisiana Tech is 8-1 and it's won eight games in a row. Facing a hungry 6-3 Marshall side that's looking to better its bowl positioning itself, I think the Bulldogs finally stumble on the road here. Overall Louisiana Tech averages 38.1 PPG. The Herd have won four in a row and they're 4-1 at home. Marshall only allows 371 yards of offense per game. Key Trends: - Note that Louisiana Tech is just 2-4 ATS in its last six after playing three straight conference games. - Marshall is 4-1 ATS in its last five after a cover as a double digit favorite. The verdict: I think the Bulldogs finally take a step back here in this difficult venue vs. this top notch defense; lay the short points! | |||||||
11-14-19 | Buffalo -5.5 v. Kent State | Top | 27-30 | Loss | -110 | 76 h 9 m | Show |
My 10* BLOOD-BATH is on Buffalo. The Bulls go on the road as the favorite here looking for their sixth win of the year. Kent State needs to win out to become bowl eligible. Buffalo has won four of the last five in this series though and I expect the Bulls to continue that run of success today. The Bulls dominate defensively, allowing only 22.3 PPG overall and just 11.3 over the last three. Buffalo has also looked a lot better with QB Kyle Vantrease under center, as he's gone 3-1 with five TD's and a 61 percent completion rate since taking over for the injured Matt Myers. Kent State's been better at home than on the road this year and QB Dustin Crum, who leads the team in rushing, has only one INT. Key Trends: - Note though that Buffalo is 16-6 ATS in its last 22 vs. the conference, including 4-1 ATS this season. - The Bulls are 3-1 ATS in their last four as a road favorite in the 3.5 to 7 points range. - Kent State is only 6-7 ATS in its last 13 at home, including just 1-2 ATS this season. The verdict: I like the Bulls to dominate this one defensively and to punch their ticket to eligibility vs. this "on again, off again" Kent State side; lay the points! | |||||||
11-13-19 | Bowling Green +18.5 v. Miami-OH | Top | 3-44 | Loss | -104 | 53 h 21 m | Show |
My 10* CLASH OF THE TITANS is on Bowling Green. Miami Ohio is in need of just one more victory to become bowl eligible. But at 3-6, the Bowling Green Falcons are still three victories away. Outright victory here? Likely not! But Bowling Green's post-season aspirations are in the balance here and I think it'll have enough to keep this one competitive until the final moments. Bowling Green comes in off a momentum building 35-6 win over Akron in its last action as well. The Redhawks revolve around QB Brett Gabbert, who has three TD's and no INT's over his last three games. Note though that Miami's last three victories have come by seven, three and seven points respectively. Key Trends: - Bowling Green is interestingly 5-1 ATS in its last six after playing three consecutive conference contests. - Miami Ohio is a poor 3-7 ATS in its last ten as a home favorite. The verdict: The Falcons come in out of their bye week and with the extra time off to prepare, I look for them to comfortably sneak in through the back door down the stretch with the ample points they've been afforded tonight; play on Bowling Green! | |||||||
11-12-19 | Eastern Michigan v. Akron +17 | Top | 42-14 | Loss | -105 | 33 h 54 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Akron. EMU is 4-5 and desperate for some victories as it looks to run down a bowl berth. The Eagles are just 1-4 in conference play, while the Zips are 0-9 overall and 0-5 in league action. Note that Akron will not only be relishing the thought of playing spoiler here vs. the Eagles, but it's also out for revenge after dropping this game last year by a score of 27-7. The Zips have the second worst offense in the nation, but they actually have a decent defense, allowing only 390 YPG. Eastern allows 455 YPG. Key Trends: - EMU is a poor 6-9 ATS in its last 15 as a favorite (including only 1-3 ATS this season.) - Akron is 3-1 ATS in its last four after a two-game road trip. The verdict: Outright victory? I doubt it. But the conditions are definitely right for a much more competitive battle than what this spread would suggest in my opinion; grab the points! | |||||||
11-09-19 | Nevada v. San Diego State OVER 38.5 | Top | 17-13 | Loss | -114 | 34 h 46 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the OVER Nevada/SDSU. SDSU is 7-1 and it comes in with plenty of momentum after having won four straight. Nevada won't be rolling over here though at 5-4 as it tries to pull off the upset and gain eligibility at the same time. Nevada beat New Mexico 21-10 last weekend, with Carson Strong going for 305 yards and two TD's. Overall Nevada averages only 19.3 PPG though, while conceding an awful 34.6. Last year the Aztecs won this game 28-24 and I expect a similar high-scoring affair here. SDSU is also rested out of its bye week. Key Trends: - Nevada has seen the total eclipse the posted number in five of its last six after a home victory. - SDSU has seen the total go over the number in three of its last four as a home favorite in teh 14.5 to 21 points range. The verdict: I look for this total to fly well over the number, perhaps even before half time. This number is much too low, play the over! | |||||||
11-09-19 | Maryland +44 v. Ohio State | Top | 14-73 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 27 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Maryland. I think this spread is WAY too large. Ohio State doesn't need to run up the score on this one to win obviously. The 8-0 Buckeyes are rolling towards the finish line and the 3-6 Terrapins will be just another speed bump in their grand prix season. Maryland QB Josh Jackson is a gun-slinger though and I think he'll have his opportunities vs. this complacent home side. Maryland has been decent against the pass as well of late, most recently holding Michigan QB Shea Patterson to just 151 total yards. OSU QB Justin Fields could also be limited here after he went to the injury tent last time out late in the game. Key Trends: - The Buckeyes are interestingly just 5-6 ATS in their last 11 as a home favorite of 21.5 or more points. - Maryland is a decent 6-2 ATS in its last eight off a blowout loss of 21 or more points to a conference rival. The verdict: This spread is ridiculous. Look for Maryland to put up a fight until the final quarter; grab the points! | |||||||
11-08-19 | Washington v. Oregon State UNDER 65 | Top | 19-7 | Win | 100 | 82 h 47 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the UNDER Washington/Oregon State. Washington is 5-4 and it's looking to snap a two-game slide. The Huskies come off consecutive losses to Oregon and Utah, so while the Beavers won't be afraid to open up the playbook, the Huskies clearly catch a break in the overall level of competition this weekend. I think the Huskies defense steps up here vs. Beavers' QB Jake Luton. Washington has already posted 20 sacks this year and the Beavers have conceded 16 thus far. Oregon State allows 176 rushing yards per game, so expect to see the visitors hand off to Salvon Ahmed early and often, to take off some of the pressure on QB Jacob Eason, who has been sacked 12 times this year, but who faces a Beavers unit which has produced 25 sacks this season. Key Trends: - Washington has seen the total go under in its last three as a road favorite in the 7.5 to 14 points range. - Oregon State has seen the total dip below the posted number in three of its last four off an upset win as a road dog. The verdict: I don't think the Huskies take many risks here. Instead I look for the visiting side to try and control this contest as to limit the time the Beavers have the ball on offense. This number is high, play the under! | |||||||
11-07-19 | Temple v. South Florida +2 | Top | 17-7 | Loss | -106 | 84 h 54 m | Show |
My 10* GAME OF THE WEEK is on USF. Temple is hoping to snap a three-game losing streak here, but I think the 4-4 home side does just enough to secure the small upset on Thursday night. The Bulls enter off a big 45-20 win over ECU and I expect them to carry that momentum over here. Temple QB Anthony Russon now faces one of the nation's best pass defenses, as the Bulls are ranked 17th in that department. The road ahead doesn't get any easier for USF either, with games against heavyweights Cincinnati, Memphis and UCF to finish up the regular season. If not now for the Bulls, when? Key Trends: - Temple is interestingly just 1-4 ATS in its last five "Thusday" night games. - USF is 4-1 ATS in its last five after a win by 21 or more points. The verdict: These two teams are moving in opposite directions right now and I expect those trends to continue; play on the Bulls! | |||||||
11-06-19 | Miami-OH v. Ohio -7 | Top | 24-21 | Loss | -105 | 32 h 37 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Ohio. This is a big game. Both teams are 4-4, but 3-1 in MAC action. The winner of this one will take control of the conference. Last year Miami Ohio won this game 30-28, snapping a five game win streak in the series for the Bobcats. These teams are contrasting in styles, with the RedHawks getting the job done on the defensive side of the ball, and Ohio getting big offensive production (Bobcats have won two straight and scored 78 points in the process.) Miami QB Brett Gabbert has been decent this year, throwing for 1,360 pasisng yards, but with five TD's and five INT's. Note that Gabbert has also been sacked 16 times this year. Key Trends: - The Bobcats have 14 sacks this season. - Ohio QB Nathan Rourke has 1,743 passing yards with ten TD's and five INT's. The verdict: The RedHawks weakness on the defensive side is against the pass. Look for the home side to air this one out early and often and expect it to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS cover; lay the points! |
