Texas A/M Aggies over Alabama Crimson Tide: It is not often we end up on 1 of the marquee match ups on the menu because value usually is usually found in the under the radar games. However getting this many points with Tex A/M at home with their huge home field advantage gives us excellent value.
Tulane Green Wave over Louisiana Tech Bulldogs: Just too many points for a Tul team improving. Part of the issue is Tul was awful in their last game losing at home to S. Ala. Neither team is very good on defense.
Arkansas State Red Wolves over Auburn Tigers: Aub did not look good last week winning at home against Wash St 31-24. Wash St threw the ball 65 times. Now they face an Ark St team that moves the ball on the ground with 4 very good running backs.
Brigham Young Cougars over Virginia Cavaliers: Virg went 4-8 last year and really struggled on offense. Virg has new coordinators on both sides of the ball. Watford takes over at QB. He played 10 games in 2011 and was red shirted in 2012. BYU had the 3rd best def last year in the land.
Kent St. Golden Flashes over Arkansas St. Red Wolves: No question who the more motivated team will be in this one. Kent St first bowl game since 1972. Ark St was in this bowl game last year losing 38-20.
Mississippi Rebels over Pittsburgh Panthers: This will be the first bowl game for Miss since 09. They should be pumped with this game being played in Ala the heart of the SEC.
Northwestern Wildcats over Mississippi St. Bulldogs: Two issues have this line lower than it should be. One it is the SEC vs. Big 10. Secondly the success of Miss St. in bowl games vs. the ineptitude of Nwestern in bowl games.
Tulsa Golden Hurricane over Iowa St. Cyclones: Iowa St beat Tul at home the first game of the season 38-23. Two key contributors in that game RB Johnson and LB Knott will not be playing today.
Duke Blue Devils over Cincinnati Bearcats: It is not often in this price range you get the far more motivated team with the better QB. Duke will play its first bowl game in 18 years and close to home in Charlotte.
Fresno St. Bulldogs over SMU Mustangs: Total mismatch for the Hawaii Bowl. SMU qualified for this bowl in their last game against a uninterested Tulsa team.
