Total: 48.5
Cincy won a share of the Big East title, which isn't saying much, but lost the tiebreaker to West Virginia. As a result, they come into this game with not much momentum. Plus, their QB Collaros may not play. Either way, I don't think it matters. Vanderbilt has been a great success story this season. A first-year coach leading his team to only their fifth bowl game ever. Don't forget that their QB Rodgers has been sensational at times. You've gotta like the Cinderella story in this one... especially at less than a field goal.

Line: Auburn -1.5
Total: 48.5
Virginia had a great win to force a big game against conference rival, Virginia Tech. And then they just collapsed, 38-0. A big goose egg. It's hard to come into this bowl game with much momentum after that crushing loss. Meanwhile, Auburn has not done much better this season. After having a perfect season and a national championship, one player made all the difference in this team that went 4-8 ATS this year. This game will help both programs in the recruiting phase of the off-season, but that's about it. I'll take my chances that neither team cares too much about this one... but I'd prefer an extra half-point just in case.

Ticket City Bowl (Dallas, TX):
Penn State vs Houston
Line: Houston -5.5
Total: 56.5
Both teams face weird circumstances: Penn State's controversy and Houston's debacle in the Conference USA championship that arguably cost them a BCS bowl bid. The matchup in this game will be Houston's QB Keenum as he bids farewell to his collegiate career against the nation's fifth-ranked pass defense. The Cougars have the nation's top-ranked offense in terms of total yards per game, passing yards per game, and points scored per game. However, I think that they will have to keep Penn State off-balance to win this game--their defense is just too good. But, I think the home crowd will give Keenum the win in this game before he heads to the NFL.

Throw into the mix that the South Carolina quarterbacks have been iffy at best. However, the big question in this game will be how Nebraska led by QB Martinez and RB Burkhead do against this feisty fourth-ranked Gamecock defense. I'll take the Cocks as long as this line stays below a field goal.

This matchup features two 6-6 teams that feature Urban Meyer's shadow on both sidelines. These two teams appear pretty even matched with one big exception: rushing yards per game. Ohio State averages almost 200 rushing yards per game which is good enough for the 27th-ranked rushing attack while Florida averages 144 rushing yards per game which is middle-of-the-pack in Division I. I see this game being fairly low scoring as a result as the Buckeyes look to grind out this game...

However, the Ducks led by RB James showcase the fifth-ranked rushing attack averaging 295 yards per game. More importantly, despite their running game dominance, both teams can score points: Wisconsin averages almost 45 points per game while Oregon's up-tempo offense can expect 46 points per game. I think Wisconsin's tempo might have dropped this total lower than it should be... I'll take my chances.

The defenses aren't bad, but they aren't great either. A few stops here and a couple of field goals there would kill this over, but I like my chances...

Sugar Bowl (New Orleans, LA):
Michigan vs Virginia Tech
Line: Michigan -2.5
Total: 51
First off, let me say that this game features two teams that both received at-large BCS bids. Michigan had a surprising 10-2 season, while Virginia Tech got crushed by Clemson--twice. I will be the first to say that both of these teams are arguable, but especially Virginia Tech. I still think Baylor should have gone to a BCS game, but because it's "Baylor" no one cared. I think Baylor could have been a big draw at the Superdome. Instead, they drew two big programs that will bring dollars and crowds. Rant over.
More importantly, I think that this game will be interesting. Mobile quarterbacks have given Virginia Tech fits this year. QB Robinson for Michigan fits the bill. Here's the bad part: he's the passing leader and the rushing leader for this team this year. Also, he is so turnover prone and makes too many mistakes. But, he does have great games. I think he makes more "pros" than "cons" in this game. Regardless, the biggest stat for me is each team's record ATS this year: Michigan is 8-4 ATS while the Hokies are 4-9 ATS. Ouch. So much for "Beamer ball" this year.

Line: Clemson -3.5
Total: 60.5
This is probably one of the January bowl games that I am looking forward to the most. Normally, I am a defensive-minded person, but I think this game matches up well on both sides of the ball, but the offenses will take the stage in this show. Offensively, we bring two teams that can score points: West Virginia averages 34 points per game, while Clemson averages 33 points per game. Both teams can pass the ball well with West Virginia bringing in the sixth-ranked passing yardage per game, but Clemson is not too far off themselves as the 18th-ranked. Both quarterbacks, Smith and Boyd, can make big plays. I think this will be a very good matchup in a very regional contest. I don't really think there is much home-field advantage in this contest, but don't forget that Clemson was a perfect 8-0 at home this year, but struggled on the road. I'd lean with Clemson, but their road struggles worry me. I think the safer play is the total.

Cotton Bowl (Arlington, TX):
Kansas State vs Arkansas
Line: Arkansas -7.5
Total: 62.5
This bowl game has always been my favorite growing up with Baylor and the SouthWest Conference. However, it will be weird having this be the first time that the Cotton Bowl is not played in the Cotton Bowl--it's moving to Cowboys Stadium this year. That is a plus in itself, because it can hold more fans and draw more regional interest, but it's also losing a big historical impact of the bowl game. It's kinda cool, but it's also kinda sad too.
Looking at the game, this is an interesting matchup. Kansas State and Arkansas were both in the BCS hunt late in the season, but both faltered at the end ending up with 10-2 seasons. I still think this is a good bowl game for both teams--so the "post-season letdown" should not be a factor here. On first glance, my gut told me Arkansas was the play. But, thinking back on the season, Kansas State always played their games close this year. They only lost to Oklahoma State by a touchdown. More importantly, even though Kansas State relies heavily on the running game, virtually ignoring the passing game as a result, they still manage to score points, averaging 33 points per game. Meanwhile, Arkansas will rely on the passing attack that averages 321 passing yards per game that ranks twelfth nationally. Something tells me that the spread is pretty close, but I think this could surprisingly go over as well... unless K-State plays ball control. But, they've done that all year and still scored points.

My gut remembered the points that they scored in a couple of games, but looking at the numbers, these two teams are pretty evenly matched, surprisingly. SMU averages 25.7 points per game. Pittsburgh averages 25.8 points per game. The loss of RB Line has really hurt the Mustangs as they lost four of their last six games. Also, the Ponies are only 4-8 ATS this year. Meanwhile, Pittsburgh continues to struggle itself--losing RB Graham hurt tremendously, while QB Sunseri has his bad moments that make Tony Romo look good. I think the line and total smell fishy here...

Arkansas State vs Northern Illinois
Line: ASU -1.5
Total: 62.5
This bowl game will be a great game: the team that everyone has seen multiple times against the team that no one has heard of or seen this year, but those loyal to the Sun Belt. Arkansas State has historically been one of the best teams in the conference since it was created about a decade ago. This year was no exception as they swept the conference and won the conference title again. What most people probably aren't aware of is that this team at one point in the season had the best ATS record. They finished 10-2 ATS. That's impressive--especially considering that for most of the season they were double-digit favorites in every game. Arkansas State, which relies on a pistol based offense, remains fairly balanced, but will pass more than not (60/40). Their QB Aplin is a great athlete who is a dual-threat type out of the pistol. They do run some option as well which he can execute well. On the other side of the coin, many people have seen Northern Illinois in the mid-week MAC games. Most will remember their 63-60 shootout win over Toledo. Their offense relies heavily on their QB Harnish who is also a great athlete and dual-threat type. I think this game will depend on which quarterback plays the best, or more to the point, makes the fewest mistakes. It's hard to go against Northern Illinois, but don't be fooled by their mid-week games... the Red Wolves can play ball too. Their defense will be the key. This season the Arkansas State defense is only allowing 19 points per game. If they can hold Norther Illinois to between 21-28 points, they can win this game without question. Plus, 10-2 ATS is tough to knock against... and they are only laying 1.5?! Sign me up!

BCS Championship (New Orleans, LA):
Alabama vs Louisiana State
Line: PK
Total: 40
The game that no one but me wants to see again. I love defense, especially in college football where it is becoming pretty scarce. One of the best defensive minds in football versus the Mad Hatter. Two coaches that know how to win. Two Heisman Trophy finalists. Two defensive teams. Two teams that know each other so well. So why has the total risen two points since the line first came out? And why did the line go from LSU +1 to PK? Surely, the revenge factor for the Crimson Tide is there and that might explain why the line moved to a pick. But, the line and total were fairly similar last time too. Hmm...
Also, in the National Championship game, usually the nerves and jitters are a big factor, especially early in the game. Last year, when Auburn and Oregon played in the BCS Championship, I had a huge play on the under and a smaller play on Auburn. I won both, but I knew that the first quarter jitters would keep the total down and I was right. The last time these two teams met, which ended in a 9-6 overtime "thriller" that LSU won, I think there was a lot of jitters in that game. Maybe this time around, it won't be as bad since this game has already occurred. Look for both coaches to try to establish the ball, but also play a few wild cards. I can see the Mad Hatter throwing the gambit at Saban: fake punts, trick plays, all the gadgets necessary to win a national championship. But, Saban's teams are always well disciplined. It will be an interesting chess-match out there for sure. I probably will not play the side unless I can get at least a field goal on either side. My gut told me LSU +5 was the play last time, but I couldn't pull the trigger. For the same reason, I will stay away from the side again. I do see more points being scored in this one than the first time, but I don't see this game eclipsing the total. I'm thinking we see a 17-14 type game. And yes, this game could go to overtime, again.
