One of the more competitive college bowl games goes off New Year’s Eve when the 8-4 Virginia Tech Hokies meet the 7-5 Kentucky Wildcats in the Belk Bowl. The records are even, the spread is fairly even and the public’s perception is even, however, Dan has a firm take on who covers the point spread.
The Virginia Cavaliers had a great college football season at 9-4, so why are they massive +14.5 underdogs to the Florida Gators in the Orange Bowl? Check out Dan’s pick to cover the spread in a game that is likely to be a blowout.
Based on the point spread and overall record of each team, the 2019 Music City Bowl looks like a game where the teams are evenly matched. However, it’s anything but that. Strength of conference is likely to play out huge here. Check out Dan’s take on this SEC vs. ACC matchup!
Louisville looks like the better club this season with only the one loss on the campaign, but it’s always tough to discount Kentucky especially at home. The spread on this game is a slim UK -1.5 with a total line of 131.5. Get our resident NCAA hoops capper’s take and pick.
It’s weird to see someone (Memphis) other than Central Florida represent the American Athletic Conferences’s best in the Cotton Bowl. The Tigers will get a Penn State Nittany Lions team that didn’t finish out the season very strong. Bookmakers are suspicious that Memphis has a shot to win this game straight up as they’re only a +7 underdog.
Two teams that don’t really deserve to be in a bowl game meet up in a baseball stadium trying to be a football stadium on December 27th as the Michigan State Spartans (6-6 SU, 3-9 ATS) meet up with the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (8-4 SU, 5-6-1 ATS) in the Pinstripe Bowl. Keep a garbage can nearby to barf in while watching this one!
Weekday-daytime college football takes place (Yeah Baby!) on December 27th as the North Carolina Tar Heels (6-6 SU, 7-5 ATS) battle the Temple Owls (8-4 SU, 8-4 ATS) in the Military Bowl. Instead of talking about the game in this space, The Predictem family would like to give a HUGE Thank You and salute both active and retired military for the sacrifices you’ve made to make the United States the great country that it is.
The Huskies are 7-1 at home this season with the only loss coming against a good Zaga team. They’ve covered three of their last four as a host winning by 10 as -16 chalk as the only non-cover. Washington is taking near all the public action with 86% of the spread bets.
The Buckeyes have just one loss on the season losing on the road to the Golden Gophers 84-71. They do have a win on the road this season crushing UNC 74-49, but that doesn’t seem too impressive now with the way the Tar Heels have played this season. UK should be all fired up after losing to Utah as a double digit favorite in their latest.
Kansas comes into this game on a big time roll winning nine straight after losing their opener by two to Duke. Nova has been playing some good ball as well going 8-2 on the season, but have been over valued by the oddsmaker going a bankroll crushing 3-6-1. Read on to get our capper’s predicted point spread winner.
