    added La Tech -1' small
      *just a hunch that Skipster /(cough) Driskel / Dixon.....get it done over Anderson (dumbazz) / Knighten / Gordon...in essentially a pick-em' game........
    $   OVER.....is maybe a better play....I'll play that at halftime prolly (big if 1H is lower scoring). >> my totals are much better in-game or halftime 

    Note:  conference trends you can't totally ignore

    CUSA-   19/23 UNDER in bowls...........damm
      *and on 14-7 ATS run

    Sun Belt dogs are 12-4-1 ATS in bowls....under is 7-2-1 in SB bowls

    8/10 NO bowls (dome) have gone OVER

    also on the Jets -3 small.......
      *Jets no road warriors for sure.....but the 'Boys are DONE....and the WORST home team in the NFL.....last 5 yrs under Garrett .....covering just 15 of last 47 home games yikes  ..........

       as Coleman / Linwood / Stidham are out.....could be wrong....but it 'sounds like' they're checking out a game early.....I liked the value (?)..... of Baylor getting points from the (hot) but incredibly overrated UNC / Fedora.....especially off a nasty loss to Texas
      *different from Ole Miss LY......who had a great W to finish the year

    My 'buy back'....if any... will be N Caro in game / halftime

    USF / WKU 1H under 34



    so far.....
      note: dogs covered 2 but did not win SU

    Fav  3-2 SU / ATS
    O/U 4-1
     1H fav 3-2 / o/u 3-2
     2H fav 3-2 / o/u 4-1

    $ adding small play USF / WKU 1H under 34....
      *just a HUNCH that USF D gives WKU problems early....I already have USF +3 so I'll just play total here

    Bulls in nice company ....looking at 1H scoring D

    1   Ohio State    6.7pts
    2   Alabama       6.9
    3   S Florida      7.6
    4   Florida          7.7
    5   Michigan       8.0
    6   Wisconsin     8.2
    7   Clemson       8.2
    8   Florida St      8.3

    Their O is better 2H as well.....3rd qtr their best by far
     *WKU O has been great 1H.....but vs tougher D's not so much
      (0 vs Vandy....7 vs LSU).....USF prolly 3rd toughest D they have faced....WKU D has been much tougher 1H

    Looking back...............
      *in a higher scoring game....3 is not enough to mess with if playing the dog probably....USF ML ....the 'smarter' play...?

    FAMOUS IDAHO POTATO BOWL

    AKRON
    (7-5 SU/7-5 ATS/5-7 O/U) vs. UTAH STATE (6-6/5-7/9-3)
       
      * December 22 Day at Boise, Idaho (Artificial Turf)

    * No doubt Zips with the MO edge...their last (and only) bowl was the 2005 Motor City Bowl (lost)
        Aggs have won and covered last 3 bowls...and will have the crowd edge (Boise fans will root for MTW team)...but should have little interest in this one...2/4 bowls have been here

    Both D's match up well with the other's O
      *Zips with a really tough run D (brought in ringers from Ohio St...Wazzu and Iowa St)...nobody ran on their D (non-garbage time)...OU 3yds/rush..127yds ...Pitt 2.7/100
      ***in fact...nobody tried...looking at standard downs...the Zip D faced the fewest rushing attempts of any team...pass D being much weaker helped.

    A problem for USU?......to 'reward' him in his last game....Aggies will likely start Chuckie ...while bu Myers is the better QB....and likely gives them the best shot to win
       *note:  Myers has been hurt but should be available
                   also note ..... OC Josh Heupel has left for Mizzu (weird hire)

    $  IMO....this one has to be Akron or nothing.....esp at 7'....slight lean UNDER....only slight because USU has played several high scoring games ...9/12 went OVER
      *I'll play Akron +4' 1H small....look to play the opposite 2H...
    Zips have been a fast starter....covering 9/12 1H....< they know they can't fall behind and expect to win
    Akron up / low scoring 1H > Aggies and/or over 2H.............

    BOCA RATON BOWL

    TOLEDO  (9-2/8-2-1/ 3-7-1)   vs.   TEMPLE (10-3/9-4/4-8-1)
     
     Boca Raton, Florida (Grass Field)
     *77 deg / 10 mph / 15% rain

    *on PAPER...Toledo is the better team and (maybe) should be favored... BUT...HC Campbell is gone...(OC Candle was promoted)

    NEITHER team...really wanted to be in THIS bowl...both thinking NYD at one point....Rockets 4 bowls / 5 years...LY beat Ark St 63-44 in the Go-Daddy
      *This is only Temple's 4th bowl since 1935...last bowl 2011 in New Mex Bowl..they were bowl eligible last year at 6-6 but stayed home...SO....IMO they should be the more focused team here
      *esp since HC Rhule stayed / could have left

    Both D's are similar...both tough vs run...Temple pass D a bit better
      *BUT...Toledo with a nice offensive edge...>> Rockets play fast (#23 pace) / Temple slow (#100)....Owls with the better ST

    $  I bet Temple +1 when opened....I'll probably stick with it...at 2' I would maybe pass ....
          *this one a 'clear' under...as both were a combined 7-15-1 OU
           but in a 'lesser' bowl ...I look for a higher scoring game...so I'll look to play the OVER 2H...or even Toledo if Temple is not moving the ball.....>> higher scoring game favors the Rockets....

    10 win seasons are always a goal for any team, so Toledo has that to play for.  But I probably lean Temple, still thinking this one over.

    You'd think if Temple wins, the game should go under, and vice versa...

    Hey BA. thx for this litany of intel. I noted you're recent A&M play. I took Ville +3 before the A&M QB fiasco but also grabbed the under 49.5 fresh off the Murray transfer news going offish. Line's 4.5 for me and thinking this is an even lower score and A&M probably hangs around on the D strength and thinking of taking A&M +4.5 for the middler. Just curious you're take on the game and any thought on making that kind of play. happy holidays!
