This is an 8* play on Over.

Louisville scored 35 points in the first half last week against Duke, and they scored 35 points in the first half in their last home game against Syracuse. Now Kentucky is a step up in competition, but the Cardinals are still going to score their points. Five of the last six head to head meetings have gone over the total. The over is 8-3 in the Cardinals last 11 games in November, and the over is 23-7 in the Wildcats last 30 non-conference games.

This is an 8* play on Under.

The Ducks playoff hopes are over, and they might be vulnerable here in this big rivalry game. Weather could be a factor, with rain in the forecast. We expect both teams to lean heavily on their running game, which should chew up the clock and keep the score from getting too high. The under is 4-0 in the Ducks last four games following a straight up loss. The Beavers defense held Arizona State to just 3.3 yards per carry (100 total rush yards) last week. They have plenty of reason to get up for this game, so don't be surprised if they give the Ducks a run for their money.

This is a 5* play on Under.

The Cyclones are coming off back to back losses to Texas Tech and Oklahoma, and they finish the season at home against TCU. The Horned Frogs have plenty to play for, with a chance to become bowl eligible. The Cyclones have gone under in eight of their last nine home games, and the under is 4-1 in their last five games in November. It's going to be a freezing cold day at Jack Trice Stadium, and I think a total over 60 seems a little inflated.

This is an 8* play on Under.

You look at this game between Ole Miss and Mississippi State, with two head coaches that are known for their offense, you might think this will be a high scoring game. History says otherwise, as these teams have gone under in eight of the last 10, and seven of the last eight head to head meetings. Both teams have shown that they can play defense in recent weeks. The Rebels have held three straight opponents to fewer than 20 points, and they have gone under 60 combined points in six straight overall. The under is 12-5 in the Bulldogs last 17 home games.

The mid week MAC games have been going over the total at an incredible rate, and perhaps that's why the bookmakers have listed the total so high for tonight's game between Buffalo and Ball State. The Bulls will have their backup QB under center, and the Cardinals offense ranks dead last in the MAC West. Ball State has failed to reach the total in seven straight home games, and the under is 5-0 in the Cardinals last five games following an ATS loss.

This is an 8* play on Texas Tech.

The Red Raiders came out of their bye week and scored a whopping 31 points in the first half last week against Iowa State. The Cyclones rallied, but Texas Tech held on to win the game on a 62 yard FG at the buzzer. They host Oklahoma State this week, and at first glance the Cowboys look pretty good at 9-1. Oklahoma State hasn't been a good bet against Texas Tech, failing to cover in five straight versus the Red Raiders. Texas Tech has covered in eight of their last 10 as a home underdog.

The Flames are at a huge advantage here in a home game against the Ragin Cajuns. They come out of their bye week fully prepared, while the Ragin Cajuns are coming off a tough road game at Troy. The Ragin' Cajuns are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 road games, and they have failed to cover in four straight coming off a win. The Flames are 8-0 ATS in their last eight home games, and they have covered in 10 of their last 13 as a favorite.

The Hawkeyes are 2-2 in their last four overall, and their offense has scored just 14.5 points per game during that span. They come into Saturday's home game against Illinois as a double digit favorite, but I have them on upset alert. Illinois is gunning for a third straight road win against a Top 25 team, coming off wins over #7 ranked Penn State and #20 Minnesota. They ran for 357 yards against the Nittany Lions, and in their win over Minnesota they held the Gophers to 89 yards rushing. Coming off a bye week, I expect Illinois to be highly competitive here at Iowa.

This is an 8* play on Wake Forest.

The Tigers are 7-3, two games back of Wake Forest in the ACC standings, but they are a 4.5 point favorite at home versus the Deacons on Saturday. The brand name of Clemson might be carrying too much weight, because the product on the field doesn't justify being favored here. Sam Hartman has been lighting it up all year, and last week he threw for 290 yards and three TDs in a 45-42 win over #16 N.C. State. DJ Uiagalelei threw for just 111 yards on 12-of-26 passing in a loss to the Wolfpack earlier this year. The Tigers are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games overall, and they have failed to cover in six of their last seven home games.

This is an 8* play on Houston.

The Memphis Tigers are just 5-5, and they are just 2-4 in conference play. They have failed to cover in all four of their road games this season, and they are 3-13-1 ATS in their last 17 games as a road underdog. Their offense has struggled, partially because it has been so one dimensional. Having little success running the football, things could be worse as their #1 WR and best offensive player (Calvin Austin) has been banged up for weeks, and only played only a few snaps in the first half and was extremely limited in the second half in last week's lost to ECU. The Cougars have won nine straight, and they are undefeated in conference play. Houston QB Clayton Tune has been lights out this season, and he's thrown 14 TD passes without an INT in his last five starts.

This total has been bet up several points over the last 24 hrs. We have seen an ongoing trend of high scoring games in the midweek MAC games, but Toledo is coming off a solid defensive performance against Bowling Green, They held the Falcons to 196 total yards, and just 67 yards passing. They ran the ball 42 times, and attempted just 25 passes. These two teams have a history of playing low scoring games, going over in just one of the last six head to head meetings.

The Rebels offense has been cooking this season, but a string of injuries could prove to be fatal ahead of this marquee matchup against the mighty Aggies defense. Texas A&M ranks second nationally allowing just 14.7 points per game. The Aggies rely on their running game for offense, and Ole Miss ranks at the bottom of the SEC versus the run, allowing almost 200 rushing yards per game. The Rebels are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games as a home underdog, and they have lost their last three versus the Aggies.

This is an 8* play Michigan State.

The Spartans suffered a let down after their big win over Michigan. Coming off a loss to Purdue, you can expect Michigan State to get back on track against a Maryland team that has trouble protecting the football. Taulia Tagovailoa has thrown as many INTs (8) as he has TD passes in his last five starts. The Terrapins are 7-19 ATS in their last 26 conference games, and they are 7-22 ATS in their last 29 road games. Kenneth Walker has run for over 300 yards and eight TDs in his last two games in East Lansing. Expect him to light up the scoreboard again today.

This is a 5* play on Iowa.

Minnesota scored just six points in a home loss to Illinois last week, and their injuries are starting to take a toll. Their backfield is thin after their top three running backs all picked up injuries. The next man up had been picking up the slack, until they averaged just 2.5 yards per carry and failed to run for 100 yards in the loss to Illinois. Iowa ran for 185 yards, averaging 4.9 yards per carry in a win over Northwestern last week. Minnesota has failed to cover in five straight versus the Hawkeyes, and I expect that trend to continue this week.

This is an 8* play on Penn State.

The Wolverines will be a road favorite at Penn State this Saturday, and it's as if the bookmakers don't know that Jim Harbaugh has a troubling history in big games in the BIG10. He's just 2-13 against Top 10 ranked teams, and while Penn State isn't even ranked, they were a Top 10 team earlier in the year when they beat Auburn at home, and lost a close game on the road at #3 ranked Iowa. Michigan has lost three of it's last four versus the Nittany Lions, and the home team is 4-1 straight up in the last five meetings. The Nittany Lions are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games as an underdog.

Toledo will come into Bowling Green as a double digit road favorite, and both of these two teams are coming in scoring a ton of points. Bowling Green is coming off a 56-44 win over Buffalo, totaling 484 yards of offense. They allowed Buffalo to tally up 499 yards of offense in that game. Toledo is coming off a 52-49 home loss to Eastern Michigan, in a game where they racked up a whopping 672 yards. The Falcons have gone over in five of their last seven as a home underdog.

The Bulls have had a disappointing season so far, and a 56-44 home loss to Bowling Green didn't help matters. They have had two weeks to put that behind them, and they are hoping for a much better effort here on the road at Miami-Ohio. These teams have a history of playing high scoring games, the over is 12-4 in the last 16 head to head meetings. The over is 8-1 in the last nine meetings in Oxford. Both these teams should pile on the points here.

Hawaii will be an underdog at home against San Diego State, but the Aztecs aren't the powerhouse they used to be in the Mountain West. San Diego State lost by double digits at home to Fresno State last week, and they gave up almost 500 yards of offense in that game. The Bulldogs lost at Hawaii earlier this season, and it would be no surprise to see the Aztecs struggle on the road here. The Rainbow Warriors are 4-1 ATS in their last five games as a home underdog. Hawaii QB Chevan Coriero played well last week, throwing for 296 yards, three TDs and an INT on 23-of-39 passing in a loss to Utah State. He should keep his team competitive here in this game.

This is a 10*  play on Iowa.

Just two weeks ago Iowa was #2 in the polls, and looking like the favorite to win the BIG10. After losing 24-7 at home to Purdue, they are an underdog on the road at Wisconsin two weeks later. Keep in mind that their loss to Purdue was partially explained by turnovers (4). Normally the Hawkeyes win the turnover battle, and perhaps coming off a bye week will give them a better chance to do that here in Wisconsin. The Badgers are coming off a blowout win over Purdue, again explained by turnovers (5). There is no doubt that the results of each of these team's last game is having an impact on this line, which appears to a be a classic case of recency bias. This game should probably be closer to a pickem. I'll take the points with the Hawkeyes.

Hawaii defeated New Mexico State 41-21 earlier this season, but we expect an even higher score this time around. Why? Well since that loss the Aggies haven't improved defensively, allowing a combined 92 points in losses to San Jose State and Nevada. On a positive note, the passing game has been improving. Jonah Johnson has thrown for 725 yards, six TDs and one INT in his last two starts.

To put this game in perspective, we will refer to home team versus away team. That will remove any preconceived bias that Clemson is an elite team.

The away team is 4-2 overall, unranked, and comes in averaging 20 points per game (220th nationally). The away team have failed to cover in seven straight games overall. The home team is 6-1 ATS in their last seven overall. Based on the numbers, you would think the home team would be a more significant favorite here.

The Cowboys are 6-0, and Mike Gundy has recently been given a lifetime contract as head coach.

The Broncos held BYU to just 111 yards rushing in a 26-17 upset win at Provo last week. They will have their hands full with Air Force and their power running game, but they might be able to put this game out of reach with their passing game. Air Force hasn't seen many quality QBs this season, but they were lit up for 448 yards by Logan Booner of Utah State. That might bode well for Hank Bachmeier who beat the Falcons at home 30-19 as a freshman in 2019. The Broncos are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games as a home favorite, and they are 4-0 ATS in their last four versus the Falcons.

The Longhorns are coming off a heartbreaking loss to Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry game, after leading 38-20 at halftime. Oklahoma scored 25 points in the fourth quarter to complete the comeback. The good news for Texas is that they likely don't have to worry about Oklahoma State coming roaring back with 25 fourth quarter points. The Cowboys are lucky if their offense can score 25 points in an entire game. Oklahoma State ranks 166th nationally scoring just over 25 points per game.

The under is 7-2-1 in the Cornhuskers last 10 games overall, and they have failed to reach the total in seven straight as an underdog.

D'eriq King has been battling injuries, and the Canes may be better off sitting him in favor of Tyler Van Dyke or Jake Garcia. They might not need to lean to heavily in the pass against a Virginia defense that has allowed roughly 300 rushing yards per game in their two losses versus ACC teams.

This is a 10* play on the Under.

The Auburn Tigers will play on the road at Penn State in what figures to be the toughest test they have had in quite a while. The Nittany Lions are heavily favored, but I am expecting a close, low scoring game. The under is 15-6 in the Tigers last 21 games as an underdog, and they have failed to reach the total in six of their last seven road games. Penn State has gone under in five of their last seven versus SEC teams. The Nittany Lions defense looked sharp in a 16-10 upset win at Wisconsin in Week 1. They held the Badgers under 200 passing yards and forced a pair of INTs.

This is a 7* play on Bama.

The Tide have not missed a beat since Bryce Young stepped in to replace Mac Jones. Young has completed over 70 percent of his passes for 571 yards and 7 TDs with no INTs in two starts. Alabama will be a big favorite on the road at Florida, but history suggests the Gators are overmatched here. The Gators have lost seven straight to Alabama, and three of those games were in Florida. Six of those seven losses came by a double digit margin. The Gators starting QB has thrown four INTs and just two TDs in his first two starts despite facing inferior opponents. He could be in for a rough ride against the Tide.

This is an 8* play on Under.

The Miami Hurricanes are off to a disappointing start, getting blown out by Alabama in their season opener, and nearly missing another loss to Appalachian State in Week 2. D'Eric King doesn't look like himself coming off an ACL injury, and they haven't had any success running the ball. The loss of Donald Chaney is a big blow to their backfield depth. They are a big favorite against Michigan State, but I am not sure they can score enough to cover here. The Spartans are 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine non-conference games, and the under is 4-1 in the Hurricanes last five non-conference games.

This is an 8* play on Buffalo.

I had the Bulls last week, and they failed to cover on the road at Nebraska. Here is what I said before kickoff: "Nebraska is coming off a 52-7 win over Fordam, and perhaps that has made bettors forget that they lost to Illinois in Week 1. A home game against Buffalo is a big step up in competition from the cup cake they had their way with last week, and they have no business being favored by two TDs. The Bulls are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games overall, and they have covered in six of their last seven versus the BIG10. They are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as an underdog." The Bulls are 5-0 ATS in their last five games as a home underdog, and they have covered in five straight when coming off a loss.

This is a 5* play on Central Florida.

The Knights were quite impressive in their season opening win over Boise State. They came out a bit flat, and trailed 21-0 early in that game. They didn't stop fighting though, battling back to take a 30-24 lead early in the fourth quarter. The Cardinals opened the season with a blowout loss to Mississippi, allowing 43 points on 569 yards of total offense. They face a similar challenge here against UCF, and the trends seem to suggest they could see a similar result. The Cardinals are 7-17 ATS in their last 24 games as a home underdog, and they are 7-23-1 ATS in their last 31 versus a team with a winning record.

I won with the under in the Ragin Cajuns first game of the season at Texas, and here is what I said before kickoff: " Last year the Ragin Cajuns opened the season with a road win over a BIG12 team when they defeated Iowa State in Ames by a score of 31-14. They are returning 10 defensive starters from a unit that was 1st in the Sun Belt versus the pass last year, allowing opponents to average just 170 yards per game." The under is 10-1 in the Ragin' Cajuns last 11 home games, and they have gone under in 17 of their last 22 overall.

This is an 8* play on Under.

The Rainbow Warriors have given up 79 points while going 1-1 in their first two games of the season. They are on the road at Oregon State this week, and the Beavers are a double digit favorite. The total for this game looks a little inflated, when you consider that neither of these teams are great in the passing game. Hawaii has gone under in five of it's last six overall, and the under is 5-0 in their last five on the road. The Beavers have gone under in four of their last five versus Hawaii.

This is an 8* play on Under.

The Seminoles lost their home opener against Notre Dame, but it was a feel good story even in defeat. McKenzie Milton stepped in to lead a fourth quarter comeback bid that fell just short. Jordan Travis threw for 130 yards, two TDs and three INTs on 9-of-19 passing versus the Irish. FSU catches a break with a favorable matchup at home versus Jacksonville State this week. The Gamecocks were shutout in a loss to UAB in their first game of the season. The under is 8-1 in the Gamecocks last nine games overall, and they have gone under in six of their last seven road games. The number looks a bit too high considering that this should be a one-sided contest.

This is an 8* play on Portland State.

The Cougars got off to a horrible start, losing their home opener to Utah State. There is no way they deserve to be a 31 point favorite against a Portland State team that can really put points on the board. Davis Alexander threw for 400 yards and three TDs on 23-of-47 passing in a 49-35 loss to Hawaii last week. They are likely to be just as competitive here against the Cougars. The last time these teams met, the Cougars lost outright as a 30-point favorite back in 2015. The Vikings are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 road games.

This is an 8* play on the Under.

Rutgers scored 61 points in a blowout win over Temple in Week 1, but we can expect a much closer game here against Syracuse. History tells us that this might be a defensive battle. These teams have failed to reach the total in each of the last four head to head meetings, and the Scarlet Knights have gone under in four straight at Syracuse. The under is 11-5 in Scarlet Knights last 16 road games, and they have failed to reach the total in seven straight versus ACC teams. The Orange have gone under in four of their last five in the month of September.

The Utah State Aggies are coming off their first win over a Power Five team since 2014, and their first road win versus the Power Five in 50 years. They needed two TDs in the final five minutes of the fourth quarter to complete the comeback in a 26-23 win over Washington State. Their defense did a fine job against the Cougars, and we can expect another defensive battle here against North Dakota. The Aggies have gone under in eight of their last 10 when coming off a win, and the Fighting Hawks have gone under in six straight overall.

This is a 5* play on Notre Dame.

The Seminoles were 3-6 last season, but they come in with high expectations that Mike Norvell can turn things around. It won't be easy in Week 1 hosting the Notre Dame Irish. Brian Kelly has won 32 straight against unranked opponents, and the Irish have won the last two versus Florida State by a combined 45 points. As much as the Seminoles might be improved, they are going to struggle to make up for a disparity of talent on both the offensive and defensive line. Jack Coan had himself a solid season with Wisconsin in 2019, completing 70 percent of his passes for 2727 yards, 18 TDs and just 5 INTs. There will be enough talent around him to allow Notre Dame to be a contender again in 2021.

This is a 5* play on Under.

The Washington State Cougars have been involved in plenty of high scoring games over the year's, but this year's squad ain't you're daddy's Cougars. The Mike Leach era has ended, and the Air Raid offense will be replaced by Nick Rolovich's more balanced offensive approach. We should see Max Borghi and fellow senior Deon McIntosh do a lot of the heavy lifting. They host the Utah State Aggies in Week 1, and Utah State was 1-5 last season. The Aggies scored an average of 10 points in those five losses. The total for this game has been bet up, and now sits in the high sixties. I think that's a little over optimistic for these two teams.

This is a 10* play on Clemson.

The Georgia Bulldogs finished last season strong after making a change at QB, and they are expecting to have a big year with JT Daniels as the starter. Daniels threw for over 1200 yards, 10 TDs and just two INTs while winning the last three games of the regular season, then won a close game in the Peach Bowl versus Cincinnati. He didn't see any Top 10 ranked teams last year, and Clemson is considered by many to be the favorite heading into 2021. D.J. Uiagalelei takes over for Trevor Lawrence, and the Tigers offense didn't miss a beat in the two games he started last year. He could have an improved offensive line, and with 10 starters back on defense the Tigers have the peices in place to win another National Championship. Last year Mac Jones and Kyle Trask each lit up the Georgia secondary each throwing for over 400 yards. Uiagalelei might do the same here in Week 1, handing the Dawgs a loss in their opener.

This is a 5* play on Under.

The Longhorns will have a tricky matchup in Week 1, facing a ranked team at home. New head coach Steve Sarkisian will have to have his team on their toes to avoid an upset at the hands of the #23 ranked Louisiana Lafayette Ragin Cajuns. Last year the Ragin Cajuns opened the season with a road win over a BIG12 team when they defeated Iowa State in Ames by a score of 31-14. They are returning 10 defensive starters from a unit that was 1st in the Sun Belt versus the pass last year, allowing opponents to average just 170 yards per game. Sarkisian isn't likely to have his offense humming at full speed this early in the season, so we should see both teams lean heavy on the run. I don't think these teams will combine to score 60 points.

This is a 5* play on Under.

North Carolina comes into a hostile environment at Virginia Tech as a significant favorite. Quarterback Sam Howell is one of the favorites to win the Heisman, but he's got his work cut out for him. The loss of Dyami Brown, Dazz Newsome, Javonte Williams, and Michael Carter will not be easy, and it could take some time to work out the offensive chemistry. Howell had a fantastic season a year ago, but he didn't exactly light it up in his first two starts. He threw for 620 yards, three TDs and three INTs in wins over Syracuse and Boston College. Neither of those games saw more than 50 points combined. The Hokies scored a ton of points in a loss at North Carolina last year, and that game was a high scoring shootout. With all the turnover I really don't see that happening here in the season opener in Blacksburg.

This is an 8* play on Minnesota.

The Buckeyes ran the table in the BIG10 last year, but after three games were cancelled due to Covid, the conference had to change the rules midway through the season in order to allow Ohio State to play Northwestern in the Conference Championship Game. Three of their six wins came by less than 14 points, and they are 2-5 ATS in their last seven overall. The Golden Gophers are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games as an underdog. This team was 11-2 in 2019, and last year's 3-4 record can be written off as a product of delays and interruptions during a pandemic. With all the talent returning in 2021, there is every reason to expect PJ Fleck to field a highly competitive team. The Buckeyes last game at Minnesota came by a score of 31-24, and I expect a similar story here in the season opener.

This is a 2* play on Under.

The San Jose State Spartans will be a big favorite in their season opener versus Southern Utah, and money has been coming in the total. With the number bet up several points from the opening line, there looks like some value in fading the movement. The underdogs weren't great on defense last season, but they did lead their conference and finish in the top 20 of FCS with three sacks per game. It would be no surprise to see these offenses struggle to get off the ground in the season opener.

This is a 5* play on Illinois.

Nebraska was a -15 point favorite at home versus Illinois last year, and they got their butts whipped in a 41-23 loss. That sets up a revenge spot here at Illinois in Week 1. It makes sense that Nebraska is favored to win this game, but asking them to cover more than a TD seems a little questionable to me. The Illini are bringing back the majority of last year's starters, including Senior QB Brandon Peters. Brett Beilema takes over at coach, and he should be able to get the running game going at full tilt. The last time Nebraska played at Illinois they came in as a nine point favorite, and failed to cover winning by a score of 42-38.

This is an 8* play on Alabama.

Ohio State is coming off a huge win over Clemson, by far their most impressive performance of the season. They had previously struggled against the likes of Indiana, Penn State and Northwestern. The BIG10 actually had to change the rules in the middle of the season, allowing the Buckeyes to play in their Championship Game. Technically Ohio State shouldn't even be here. They face an Alabama team that has crushed everything in their path, and their win over Notre Dame wasn't as close as the score would suggest. The Crimson Tide have the QB, the offensive line, star wideouts and a beast in the backfield in Najee Harris. I can't see the Buckeyes stopping Alabama, and I can't see Justin Fields matching serves with Mac Jones.

This is an 8* play on the Cyclones.

The Oregon Ducks won the PAC12 Title by default, because the Washington Huskies had to forfiet their spot in the Championship Game due to Covid. Oregon looked good in their upset win over USC, but that was only their fourth win of the season. It was their only game against a ranked team. The Cyclones on the other hand won eight games in the BIG12, with wins over Oklahoma and Texas. The Ducks are 5-11-1 ATS in their last 17 non-conference games, while the Cyclones are 5-1 ATS in their last six games as a favorite.

This is an 8* play on Clemson.

The Buckeyes are currently unhappy about the different Covid-19 protocols that seem to apply to Clemson, rather than the draconian measures imposed by the BIG10. This is the difference between these two teams. The Buckeyes have played just six games, while Clemson played a full schedule. The BIG10 tried to destroy this football season, while the SEC and the ACC were successful in saving it. Anything short of an ACC vs SEC Final would be an injustice IMO.

This is an 8* play on Alabama.

Everyone seems to agree, the question is not whether Alabama will beat Notre Dame, the question is by how much? The last time these teams played the Irish lost by a score of 42-14. There is reason to believe that this year's squad is more talented than the team that has been on the wrong side of several lopsided Playoff games in recent years. The bad news is that Alabama looks even better than they have in past seasons. They have averaged almost 50 points per game, scoring over 40 points in every game since Week 1.  The Irish simply aren't built to compete with the likes of this SEC powerhouse. This should be another blowout.

This is a 5* play on Cincinnati (outright).

The Bearcats are another undefeated team that was snubbed by the College Football Playoff Commitee. Reminds me of UCF, and how pissed off they were heading into their Bowl Game when they stomped Auburn in the Peach Bowl back in 2018. Kirby Smart is trying to do damage controll, denying reports that as many as nine starters will opt out of the bowl game. Cincinnati has confirmed that not a single player has opted out as of Wednesday.

This is a 5* play on Oklahoma.

For the Gators missing out on the College Football Playoffs is a big let down, and because of that many of their star players are opting out of the Cotton Bowl. The Sooners have had more time to come to terms with their absence from the playoffs, after suffering a couple of early losses. They come into the Cotton Bowl as BIG12 Champions, and winners of seven in a row. The Sooners are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games as a favorite, and the Gators have failed to cover in four of their last five.

This is a 5* play on Colorado.

Texas played a nine game schedule in 2020, and went 6-3 in those games. The majority of those games were close, six of the nine decided by seven points or less. Colorado only managed to play in five games, winning four of the five. Texas is expected to be thin on the offensive line with a couple of starters sitting for this game. The Buffaloes never had any higher expectations than playing in the Alamo Bowl, while Texas was hoping for a BIG12 Championship and possibly a Playoff spot. I think Texas is far too overvalued here and I'll take the points.

The Bulls were a heavy favorite in the MAC Championship Game, but they lost outright to the Ball State Cardinals. They turned the ball over five times in the loss, and star running back Patrick Patterson wasn't able to get anything going. Patterson leads the nation averaging 178 yards per game, and he's expected to be 100 percent for this Bowl Game against Marshall.

The Cougars season ended in disappointment, as their playoff hopes went up in smoke when they lost at Coastal Carolina a few weeks ago. They followed up with a win over San Diego State at home, but they come into the Boca Raton Bowl with an 0-8 record in the state of Florida. They face a tough opponent in Central Florida. The Knights lost three games this year, but losses to Memphis and Cincinnati came by a combined four points. They ranked fourth in the country in scoring averaging 44 points per game. The Knights are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as an underdog, and they are 5-1 ATS in their last six non-conference games. I'll take the points.

This is a 10* play on Florida.

After the Gators lost to LSU last week, nobody is giving them a chance here in the SEC Championship against Alabama. It was obvious that the Gators were not prepared last week, probably already looking ahead to this game. I expect them to be better this week, and I think that this is a team well designed to cause problems for Alabama. If you look at the teams that have beaten Alabama in recent seasons (Clemson, Ole Miss, Texas A&M) they all had a gunslinger at QB. The only time Alabama didn't look like they were in complete control in a game this season was when they allowed 48 points in a win over Ole Miss. As much as Nick Saban will want to win this game, his team is in the playoffs either way. I like the Gators to score enough points to keep this game relatively close.

The Bulls are by far the best team in the MAC, coming into the championship game with a perfect 5-0 record. It's not just that they won all their games, but they won them all by at least 19 points. Ball State is 5-1, but their one loss came against Miami-Ohio, a team that lost to Buffalo by 32 points.

The Hokies are a small favorite at home versus rivals Virginia, but I like the underdog here. The Hokies have lost three of five home games this year, including an upset loss to Liberty.

The Tar Heels are an impressive team when it comes to scoring points, but their defense hasn't impressed. They gave up 53 to Wake Forest, 44 against Virginia, and 45 against Virginia Tech. They are on the road at Miami this week, and the Hurricanes are better than all three of those teams. The Tar Heels offense was held to just 17 in a loss to Notre Dame a few weeks ago, and Miami plays a lot more like the Irish than they do like the seven teams North Carolina has beaten this year. The home team has covered in seven of the last eight head to head meetings, and the Canes have covered in four of their last five home games against UNC.

The Sun Devils lost by one point on the road at USC in Week 1, in a game that ended with a miraculous comeback. They haven't played since, and they should be fired up to get back on the field. UCLA is 2-2, and both their wins have come at home. The Sun Devils are 9-4-1 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up loss. Chase Griffin has started the last two games for UCLA, failing to throw for 200 yards in either of his starts, and he's thrown as many INTs (2) as he has TDs. The home team has won the last four head to head meetings, and I expect that trend to continue tonight.

This is a 10* play on Indiana.

The Hoosiers have only lost once, in a game that was decided on the final play on the road at Ohio State. Last week their starting QB Michael Penix Jr. was lost for the season with a serious injury, and that has resulted in the line for this week's game at Wisconsin swelling to a whopping 14.5 points. This game was never expected to be a shootout, with the emphasis always going to be defense and pounding away with the running game. Wisconsin scored just seven points last week in a loss to Northwestern, and QB Graham Mertz threw for 230 yards, a TD and three INTs in a losing effort. After completing 20-of-21 pass attempts in the season opener, he's failed to complete 55% of his attempts since. The Hoosiers are 7-0 ATS in their last seven games as a road underdog, and they are 6-0 ATS in their last six conference games.

The Ragin' Cajuns are 2-7 ATS in their last nine conference games, and they have failed to cover in five of their last six versus a team with a winning record.
