RUSSELL ATHLETIC BOWL - Camping World Stadium - Orlando, FL-West Virginia vs Miami 
Mark Richts Canes are a young crew, and despite of finishing on a 4 game win streak, showed some major gaps in concentration. Manwhile, West Virginia showed glmipses of being a power house team going forward, and with the added time off should be explosive in this game. 
MIAMI is 0-6 ATS L/6 versus good offensive teams - averaging 425 or more yards/game like West Virginia.

MOTEL 6 CACTUS BOWL - Chase Field - Phoenix, AZ

Baylor vs Boise State 

Im betting Baylor pounds away with their ground game against Boise State, and take advantage of a program that has not faired well against teams that can move the chains consistently on the ground,  going just 3-12 ATS L/15 versus good rushing teams - averaging 4.75 rushing or more yards/carry . Boise State in their L/game of the season, lost 27-20 to Air force, and have shown a propensity to fall asleep at the proverbial wheel at key junctures of games this season. Look for Baylor to lull their opponents to sleep with a slow methodical approach and pace.

Both these teams enter this tilt on 7-0 ATS runs. Colorado State , however, finished their season with a 63-31 smash down of Mountain West ChampsSan Diego State, and have been made hefty favorites in part for the aforementioned win. Meanwhile, Idaho is still no push over, and are being disrespected by the linesmakers in this spot. Yes, I do know Colorado State showed off an explosive offense, during their campaign, but The Idaho defense limited three of its last four opponents to 14 or fewer points.
HC of Idaho Petrino is 12-4 ATS versus poor rushing defenses - allowing 200 or more rushing yards/game.
College football Underdogs of 10.5 to 21 points like Idaho - after beating the spread by 21 or more points total in their last three games, a good team (60% to 80%) playing a team with a winning record are 89-46 ATS since 1992 for a 66% conversion rate!

BOCA RATON BOWL - FAU Stadium - Boca Raton, FL

Memphis vs W.Kentucky 

Alot has been said about Western Kentucky, and its explosive offense, but their achillies heel is their defense that was torched by LA Tech twice this season for 50 plus points. I know the Toppers D numbers are stable, but that was against weak  to average opposition. Im betting that's going to be the Hilltoppers demise this week, vs a Memphis side ranked 17th in scoring offense (39.5 points per game) finished its season with a 48-44 upset over 18th-ranked Houston. The Tigers are led by junior QB Riley Ferguson, who compiled a amazing 152.2 passing rating (28 TDs, 3,326 yards). This will be a back and forth affair, but the Tigers will make a few more key stops that will be the difference maker today

Toledo vs App State 

Both these teams are offensively capable, but according to my matchup analysis, the Rockets are better overall with their attack, and  did their best work against superior opponents than the Mountaineers . Alot has been said, about App States D, but Toledo despite of being torched by a few explosive offenses, this season, are a stop unit that must not be under estimated. Appalachian State is 0-4 ATS in their last four games on field turf;TOLEDO is 7-0 ATS L/7 in non-conference games and 4-0-1 ATS L/5 vs Sun Belt opposition.

AUTONATION CURE BOWL - Camping World Stadium - Orlando, FL

Arkansas State vs UCF -

Arkansas State  after a slow start to the season, really picked up alot of steam as the campaign progressed. On offense the Red Wolves have scored 30 or more in five of their last six games -- the only one without 30 points being the only loss in those six games. The Red Wolves  defense was solid all season long, but got even better as the season progressed, and will give the Knights offense alot of problems. Meanwhile, UCF is 0-6 against Bowl teams this season and lost the stats war in 8 straight games to finish their campaign. Needless to say we have a bit of a false favorite scenario here. Note: The favorite has lost the L/4 UCF Bowl games.

GILDAN NEW MEXICO BOWL - University Stadium - Albuquerque, NM

New Mexico started the season very slowly but rebounded to go 6-1 SU and 5-2 ATS in its last seven games to make a rare bowl appearance and will be pumped up to get a win.The Lobos have gotten to this point in the season behind a explosive top-ranked rushing attack. New Mexico, averaging 360.9 rushing yards per game, behind two 1000-yard rushers with Teriyon Gipson and Tyrone Owens, mowing over opposition defenses on a consistent basis .    The  Lobos offense ranks No. 22-in the nation (37.83 PPG) against a UTSA Roadrunners defense that ranks No. 69 allowing an average of  28.33 PPG.   I expect the Lobos win this one with their rush attack  by smashing and crashing and wearing down a UTSA Defense, that can be gashed for big yards . Hey guys, I know the Lobos D, is irrelevant and very porous, but New Mexico has found a way to win the war of attrition under similar circumstances this season, and will get the job done again in front of what should see them backed by a majority of the crowd in Albuquerque. 

CFB Home favorites like New Mexico  - excellent rushing team (4.8 YPR or more) against a team with a poor rushing defense (4.3 to 4.8 YPR), after gaining 225 or more rushing yards in 3 straight games are 36-14 ATS dating back 24 years.

I was hoping to see this matchup this week, and low in behold I get my wish. According to my own data base matchups Wisconsin on a neutral  field should be 4.5 point favorities, but on further considerations, my player to player and offensive/defensive unit correlations tell me that this could easily be a 6 point plus victory for the Badgers. Thus laying points here is a viable investment option. Note: Wisconsin QB Alex Hornibrook is said to be feeling better after a some light head trauma last week, and despite of his status being day to day, may pundits expect he will play in this big game. If not his so called back up Houston is a very viable option and in my opinion the superior QB. 

HC Franklin of Penn State  is 0-9 ATS  in road games when playing against a top-level team .750 or better win %.

Thats something Baylor can take advantage of via a run game that has averaged 5.8 ypc on the road and an average 326 ypg.

AAC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME - Navy Memorial Stadium - Annapolis, MD

Temples D is one of the few stop units in college Football that can harness the triple option offense of Navy. Also according to my own preferred data base matchup statistics, the wrong team is favored. I know that Navy has not lost here for a while now, but all good and bad runs must come to an end. But not withstanding a SU win, Im betting we get the all important cover. With that said, Im taking a rare double unit stand here, with Temple as my College Football Game of the Year. Im on the take here with the points.

TEMPLE is 9-0 ATS L/9 versus poor defensive teams - allowing 425 or more yards/game winning SU by an average of 22.8 ppg game.TEMPLE is 8-0 ATS against conference opponents this season.

A road team like Temple - allowing 200 or less total yards/game over their last 2 games, with an experienced QB vs. opponent with inexperienced QB are a bankroll expanding 47-19 ATS since 1992 for a 71% conversion rate.

Western Michigan still undefeated smashed Toledo last week in a DD win despite of losing the stats sheet battle, and now the College football world expects another easy win for the Bronos this week vs the Ohio Bobcats. However, I am not going to follow the party line and instead in contrarian fashion, expect the Bobbies to make a game of this MAC Championship event. It must be noted that in the past the W.Mich has covered only 1 of 5 games after a 20 point or more victory, while Ohio has covered 5 of their L/6 as DD conference dogs. Also MAC Championship games with a favorite of 7 or more points has crashed and burned 5 of the L/6 times with undefeated teams going 0-3 ATS while losing 2 times. After last weeks showdown with Toledo, Western Michigan is a precarious emotional situation, and despite of that win , as mentioned above lost the overall stats battle. 
Also from a league wide CFB data base: Favorites of 10.5 to 21 points like W.Mich - after 8 or more consecutive straight up wins, a top-tier team (.800 or better record ) playing a good team (.600 to .800 ) are just 16-44 ATS since 1991 for a 73% go against conversion rate!

This is the ugly Betty, of the College Football rotational board this week, as Maryland hosts Rutgers. Both programs have looked like crap this season, and both do not inspire bettors. But while looking at my data base I noticed big DD dogs, under various futile parameters have shown these ugly dogs do well ATS vs these not so pretty favorites. The same type of trends anomalies showed up earlier this season when Rutgers were 18 point dogs at decent Minnesota and almost sprung the upset by losing a 32-34 decision. With little left to play for I doubt Maryland will be pumped up for this tilt and will probably just go through the motions in front a bunch of empty seats.

Syarcuse head coach Dino Babers is known for running an offensive system that's all about tempo, quarterback development and the passing game and nothing has changed during his tenure at Syracuse so far. Syracuse is well rested coming off an open date with a 500 record and may provide more of test for Clemson the linesmkaers may anticipate. I expect Syracuse spreads it out, and bombs away from the outset. Yes, I know Clemson is the superior side, but 27 plus points is a boatload full of digits , considering the Tigers usually do just enough to get their wins, and with an objective of staying healthy for the long run to their championship aspirtions. The Tigers have won 5 of their 7 games  by 7 points or less, and have had a tenedncy to look inconsistent in the past. From a league wide perspective , College Football Road underdogs of 21.5 or more points like the Cuse- after outgaining opp by 225 or more total yards in their previous game, with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning are 25-7 ATS for a 78% conversion rate on the line.SYRACUSE is 6-0 ATS L/6 vs. excellent punt coverage teams, allowing or less  7.5 yards per return. CLEMSON is 1-12 ATS L/13 after playing 3 straight conference games.CLEMSON is 0-7 ATS L/7 in weeks 10 through 13 dating back 3 seasons. Syracuse has won the L/2 meetings in this series SU.

The Demon Deacons signal-caller Clawson is completing just 54.9 percent of his throws with just four touchdowns against seven interceptions on the season, thats not a good omen against a Virginia defense that is improving .I'm a fan of HC Mendenhall and I can see his team is getting better as his time on the sideliness progresses forward as was evident against  Louisville last time out in a 32-25 loss.  Virginia is 7-0 ATS L/7 on the road. Also from a league wide trends perspective - It must be noted that  Road teams where the line is +3 to -3 like the Cavaliers  - after 1 or more consecutive wins against the spread, a lower tier team, winning 25% to 40% of their games on the season are 32-12 L/44 oportunities for a 73% conversion rate.

Im not a big fan of  Charlie Strong football and it seems to me more often than not hes his own worst enemy. It  also seems hes on the hot seat on a consistent basis, and despite of talent level and top tier recruiting nothing seems come easy for this Longhorns football program of late, with close losses and defeats becoming the norm. After an emotional win vs Baylor (35-34) last time out in  a  game the Horns were fortunate to win, after being on the wrong side of the stats sheet, they now have the tall task as being listed as favorites on the road against an explosive Texas Tech side behind QB Mahomes ( expected to play and upgraded for Saturday). HC Strong of Texas has failed to cover 13 of his L/20 after a SU/aTS win and 3-7 ATS if that team was 5-0 or better. So what Im saying here is that , not even a  Matthew Mcconaughey motivational speech and heart thumping ritual song ie ( Wolf of Wall Street) will save the Horns or Strong from themselves.

QB Rush has been the catalyst behind the  Chippewas’ offense this season. The Charlotte Mich., native has already thrown for 2,533 yards and 21 touchdowns -  he owns two 300-yard passing games and he shelled Virginia for 402 yards in September. The Chippewas enter this game 25th in the FBS in passing yards per game at 283.4  and will be Im betting be able to keep pace with a suddently explosive Miami O offense.  The Chippewas’ defense is vastly under rated and some times disrepsected, but that would be a mistake, and Im betting will be the difference maker when all the chips are down. The unit is tied for second in the FBS in defensive touchdowns with four. Central Michigan’s defense has 11 interceptions (tied 13th in the nation), with nine of those coming via  the secondary -  Central Michigan,according to my own power rankings is the superior  side and has been more consistent throughout the course of the season.

Florida State is quietly playing better  football of late, allowing just one TD in their L/6 quarters of play. Now in good form and being pegged as home underdogs vs Clemson, I feel strongly about pulling the trigger and backing them as home pups in a place where they have won 23 of their l/24 games. Consdering Clemson is just 0-6 ATS as road favorite of less than a TD, my recommendation here is to take the points with the host puppies.

Historically speaking,  this Pitt  football program has a leg up on Virginia Tech, as the Panthers are winners of four consecutive meetings at Heinz Field and six of the previous seven. It seems that this long standing rivalry always brings out the best in the Panthers, no matter how good or bad they are doing at the time of their clashes. I know the Hokies run game is progressing upward quickly, as was evident against Miami last week in a lopsided win, but   against a Pitt defense that’s been as stingy as any in the ACC in the run game, allowing only 96.6 yards per game, the fifth best mark nationally, their in deeper than many might now think.  Piitsburgh is 5-0 ATS L/5 at home in this series all 5 as underdogs.
