The Alamo Bowl should be a great game between a Utes team that played very poorly vs. Oregon and the Longhorns who will have a semi home game with the contest being played in Texas. Don’t write off this Utah team! The Utes are a well discplined team that will be motivated off an ugly loss where they were expected to compete much better than they did.
Expect fireworks in this Week 16 NFL matchup as neither secondary is likely to be able to stop the opposing offense. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are still a live dog despite injuries to their two top wide receivers as the Texans defense has been very poor since the departure of J.J. Watt.
Our fight expert breaks down the strengths and weakness of the fighters and gives out his suggested Conor McGregor vs. Donald Cerrone wagers.
How is it that when we think of the Huskies and Broncos we envision Chris Peterson coaching both teams? To be completely candid, this game is super wonky and probably should be avoided unless you’re a degenerate gambler that absolutely has to have action on it! Nonetheless, Loot gives his take on who he thinks will cover the Mitsubishi Motors Las Vegas Bowl point spread.
Chippewas coach Jim McElwain has done a nice job turning the Central Michigan program around from a 1-11 season, however, he’ll be up against it in the New Mexico Bowl against the stingy run defense of Rocky Long’s San Diego State Aztecs. This game is likely to be light on fireworks but packs some good punch with regards to betting value as we believe San Diego St. will cash out another ticket here.
The Minnesota Vikings are in a “false favorite” situation here. With an overall record of 9-4 straight up and 7-6 against the spread, they find themselves in a real bad spot in Week 15 against a Los Angeles Chargers team that they don’t match up with very well. Kirk Cousins is horrible when pressured and he’ll get all he can handle from Bosa and Ingram. The Bolts are a live dog here!
The Arizona Cardinals have one of the worst secondaries we’ve seen in years. Not even the bad coaching of Freddie Kitchens will stop Baker Mayfield, Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham from having a big day through the air. This Week 15 matchup has shootout written all over it!
“Auto bet” isn’t a word in my vocabulary, however, it almost became one when I saw this week 15 matchup. The Jacksonville Jaguars have quit. The man with the mustache seems to be trying, but it’s all for not when your run defense parts like the Red Sea! The Raiders are a run first team that should thrive Sunday vs. a Jags team that never got off the bus last week.
The Carolina Panthers can’t stop running backs, can’t stop wide receivers and can’t stop tight ends. How are they going to beat a Seahawks club who are playing good ball, despite their loss last week at L.A. (which was a bad matchup for them)? The west coast to east coast travel angle is the only negative for Seattle in this matchup where Carolina’s defense has looked like a wet paper bag as of late.
Will the REAL Broncos please stand up! If you had Denver to win straight up at Houston last week, we’d like to slip you a job application. This team had just thrown up a 3-spot at Buffalo a couple weeks ago. Maybe their slim 4-point loss at Minnesota the prior week was an indication this team has rallied around young QB Drew Lock! This will be the second time they’ve faced KC, with the prior result being the horses being on the short end of a 30-6 stick.
