So how many people had Ohio State yesterday, will I did, I took the points and the Buckeyes crushed. I did watch the backdoor cover on the Bama/ND game so that big spread did tick off the Irish. Anyway with the 4 games today we only have 5 college games left. I do like 2 games today the other 2 not so much. I will give you my picks and opinions.
In the GATOR BOWL in Florida Kentucky is giving 2 1/2 points to North Carolina State. I like the Wolfpack here as they are a much better offense than Kentucky. I will take the points.
In the OUTBACK BOWL in Florida, Indiana is giving 10 points to Mississippi. The Hoosiers are good but 10 points better then Ole Miss, I really don't think so, but this is only an opinion as I would not take the points or bet against Indiana.
In the FIESTA BOWL in Arizona, Iowa State is giving 5 points to Oregon. In this game I do like the Cyclones but the 5 points scare me against a decent Oregon team who beat USC in the final. I have liked Purdy all year but still not sure how he will stack up against the Ducks.
In the ORANGE BOWL in Florida, Texas A&M is giving 7 points to North Carolina. This game has me on A&M as I think they are the better team here and Mond and company should do enough to keep the Tarheels out of the endzone, especially with the number of players not playing for UNC. Give me the Aggies to win and cover this game.
I will be back again later tonight with my picks on the last week in the NFL.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021. Well another late day news bulletin got me again as at least 6 players were not going to play in the SJSU game which cost them dearly as Ball State beat them soundly. I must admit I do not like the games today but I will give you my opinion on a few of them.
In the PEACH BOWL in Georgia, Georgia is giving 7 1/2 points to Cincinnati. I am leaning towards the Bulldogs only because the game is being played in Georgia. I think the game could end up with Georgia winning by only a td though.
In the CITRUS BOWL in Florida, Northwestern is giving 4 points to Auburn. The Wildcats have had a great season but Auburn scares me. If I had to pick anything on this game I would pick the under 44 as both teams are not exactly offensive juggarnauts.
In the ROSE BOWL in California, Alabama is giving 20 points to Notre Dame. The Tide should win this game going away but 20 points WOW is that enough of an insult to give ND to play a game above their head, we shall see. If anything it could help this game go over the 66 1/2 points.
In the SUGAR BOWL in New Orleans, Clemson is giving 7 1/2 points to Ohio State. This game is something I might put a few dollars on the Buckeyes to cover the spread and maybe even surprise the Tigers, it all depends on how the 2 qbs play and which one is more motivated to win. If both of them get hot this game could go over the 68 posted total.
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021, we got here only by the grace of God.
I will be back again tomorrow with more bowl picks.

I hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year and that 2021 is WAY BETTER than 2020 has been. I did hit both my picks yesterday with Wisky and Oklahoma and hope to do the same today. I have picks below for the Thursday 12/31 bowl games.
In the ARMED FORCES BOWL in Fort Worth, Tx the over is 44 between Mississippi State and Tulsa. I like the over here as Mike Leach is not known for his defense so I can see this game going over the total.
In the ARIZONA BOWL in Tucson, AZ, San Jose State is giving 9 points to Ball State. The Spartans are undefeated this season and have not won a game by less than 10 points the whole season and I don't see that being broken today. I like SJSU here.
I will be back again tomorrow with more bowl picks.

I wish I had put out picks for yesterday as I did love Texas but I also liked Miami so it would have been a push. I have picks below for the Wedneday 12/30 bowl games.
In the DUKE'S MAYO BOWL in Charlotte, NC Wisconsin is favored by 9 over Wake Forest. Wake Forsest hasn't played since Nov. 14th and their top DE player has opted out. They also did lose to Louisville that day. Wisky is no powerhouse offense but after losing 3 in a row they did beat Minn on Dec. 19th. Just a small play on Wisky here.
In the COTTON BOWL in Arlington Texas, Oklahoma is giving 3 points to Florida. The Gators have a slew of players opting out of this game, including TE Pitts, Trask's favorite target and that makes me think Okie will cover this spread, I also think this game could go over the 67 1/2 total.
I will be back again tomorrow with more bowl picks.

First of all I want to wish everyone who reads my posts a very MERRY CHRISTMAS, it sure has been a year all of us want to forget.
Well I wish I knew before I posted the Houston pick that Houston had a lot of first stringers opting out of the game including 4 WRs, but that's the way this season has gone. I have a few picks below for the Thursday and Friday bowl games.
In the CAMELLIA BOWL in Montgomery Alabama, Buffalo is favored by 3 over Marshall on Thursday. I have liked Buffalo all year and I am going to stick with them here. The Bulls and Jaret Patterson win this game by at least a td.
In the FIRST RESPONDER BOWL in Dallas Texas, ULLAF is giving 13 points to UTSA on Friday. The Ragin Cajuns' have played a tougher schedule and I just think if they want to win this game they will win it by more that 2 tds. I am going with ULLAF.
In the CURE BOWL in Orlando Florida, the over is 59 1/2 between Coastal Carolina and Liberty. on Friday These have been 2 of my favorite teams to watch this year and I just think 59 1/2 is very very doable for these 2 teams. This game will easily go over the total.
I will be back again with more bowl picks and I will post my picks tomorrow night on the Friday and Saturday NFL games.
Once again have a safe and Merry Christmas.
