No. 1 Clemson not favored in Orange Bowl as playoff field set

College football’s Football Bowl Subdivision now has the four teams in place for its national semifinal playoff games. And while Clemson is the No. 1 seed, the Tigers aren’t the biggest favorite. In fact, they’re not favored at all.

Rather, it appears oddsmakers and bettors believe No. 2 seed Alabama is the best team in the championship field. Johnny Avello, executive director of race and sports for Wynn Las Vegas, installed the Crimson Tide as 8.5-point chalk against No. 3 seed Michigan State in the Cotton Bowl at AT&T Stadium on New Year’s Eve.

Cotton Bowl - Michigan State vs. Alabama (-8.5)

Alabama (12-1 SU, 7-6 ATS), the SEC champion, has won 10 in a row SU since a stunning home loss to Mississippi. That includes Saturday’s 29-15 victory over Florida in the conference title game, though the Tide failed to cash as a hefty 16.5-point fave.

“The Alabama offense hasn’t lit it up this year, but it has done enough to win football games while covering the spread in six of the 11 games we booked this year (Charleston Southern excluded),” Avello said. “Quarterback Jake Coker isn’t flashy, but he makes the big play when needed and keeps the turnovers to a minimum.

But Avello isn’t dismissing Big Ten champ Michigan State, by any means. The Spartans (12-1 SU, 5-7-1 ATS) upset Ohio State on the road last month, then got a touchdown in the final minute of the Big Ten title game Saturday to edge Iowa 16-13 and get a push as 3-point chalk. Avello thinks Michigan State might like its draw in the Cotton Bowl.

“This is the type of game the Spartans like to play – a low-scoring, cat-and-mouse, who-can-make-the-least-mistakes type of contest,” he said. “Alabama’s rush defense is the best in the country, and Michigan State’s is seventh. I opened the Tide an 8.5 point favorite, so let’s see where the bettors take the number.”

Orange Bowl - Oklahoma (-3) vs. Clemson

The fourth-seeded Sooners got the oddsmakers’ nod of approval in the other New Year’s Eve semifinal, with Avello making them a 3-point favorite against the only undefeated team in the country. There is no Big 12 championship game, so Oklahoma was off this past weekend, but it has made a statement the past several weeks.

After a shocking loss to Texas in the Red River Rivalry, the Sooners (11-1 SU, 9-3 ATS) went on a 7-0 SU and 6-1 ATS tear to finish the regular season. Six of those wins were by double digits, and five were flat-out routs, capped by the Bedlam Game at Oklahoma State – a 58-23 beatdown with Oklahoma laying 7.5 points.

Clemson (13-0 SU, 6-7 ATS) hasn’t been quite that impressive on its way to the ACC title, but the Tigers have knocked down everyone the schedule makers have put in front of them. On Saturday, in the conference final, Clemson held off a North Carolina rally for a 45-37 victory to cash as a 6.5-point fave.

“I realize Clemson is the No. 1 seed, but I opened Oklahoma -3,” Avello said, pointing to several factors – including revenge from the 2014 bowl season. “Stronger schedule, more potent offense, program recognition and a 40-6 loss in the Russell Athletic Bowl last year as a 5-point favorite. The Sooners were held to 275 yards of total offense and didn’t score until late in that meaningless bowl game last year. I anticipate a better effort with so much more at stake.”

Ohio State opens as a healthy favorite versus Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl

The Buckeyes crushed the Michigan Wolverines 42-13 as 1.5-point favorites in the regular season finale.

College football’s four-team playoff will certainly be riveting come New Year’s Eve, when the two semifinals will be contested. But the rest of the so-called New Year’s Six bowl games will also certainly be appealing to bettors and fans alike.

Most notable among them: a matchup of traditional powers Notre Dame and Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl, on New Year’s Day in Glendale, Ariz. The Buckeyes were No. 7 in the College Football Playoff rankings released Sunday, just one spot above the Fighting Irish, but Ohio State is a healthy favorite in this contest.

Johnny Avello, executive director of race and sports for Wynn Las Vegas, sent the Buckeyes out as 6-point favorites.

Ohio State (11-1 SU, 5-7 ATS) didn’t make it to the Big Ten title game, but bounced back from an upset home loss to Michigan State by hammering Michigan 42-13 as a 1.5-point road chalk in the regular-season finale.

Notre Dame had a chance to play its way into consideration for the playoff, but fell in its regular-season finale at Stanford. The Irish (10-2 SU, 8-4 ATS) scored a touchdown with 30 seconds left to take a 36-35 lead, but let the Cardinal get a last-second field goal, losing 38-36 catching 4 points.

Notre Dame’s two losses came by a total of four points.

“Notre Dame didn't play a Big 10 team this year, and now the Irish probably get the best the conference has to offer,” Avello said. “With a little luck, both of these teams could have been undefeated this year, but make no mistake, this game will be as popular as either of the playoff games.”

Rose Bowl - Stanford Cardinal (-6) vs. Iowa Hawkeyes

The Hawkeyes saw their perfect season thwarted, and with it a berth in the four-team playoff, in the Big Ten title game Saturday. Iowa allowed Michigan State to consume nine minutes of the fourth quarter, giving up a touchdown in the waning seconds of a 16-13 loss to push as a 3-point underdog.

But the Hawkeyes (12-1 SU, 7-5 ATS), fifth in the final playoff rankings, got a nice consolation prize with their first trip to Pasadena in 25 years.

No. 6 Stanford, meanwhile, followed up its thrilling win over Notre Dame with a relatively easy victory in Saturday’s Pac-12 title game. The Cardinal (11-2 SU, 9-4 ATS), riding the versatility of Christian McCaffery, ripped Southern California 41-22 giving 4.5 points.

“My initial thinking was that this game would be an Ohio State-Stanford matchup, but the committee dropped Iowa just one notch after its loss to Michigan State,” Avello said. “Stanford is going to be close to a touchdown favorite here, because the Cardinal are playing as good as any of the teams in the four-team playoff.”

Sugar Bowl - Oklahoma State Cowboys vs. Mississippi Rebels (-7)

The Rebels (9-3 SU, 7-5 ATS) finished the season with a pair of good wins, cashing in both efforts. After thumping Louisiana State 38-17 as a 7-point home fave, Ole Miss capped the regular season with a 38-27 Egg Bowl victory as a 2-point road chalk against Mississippi State.

Meanwhile, Oklahoma State started out 10-0 SU, but ended the regular season on a sour note, losing its last two SU and ATS. In the regular-season finale, the Bedlam Game, the Cowboys (10-2 SU, 6-6 ATS) got hammered by Oklahoma 58-23 as a 7.5-point home pup. But they still managed the invite to a New Year’s Six game as the second-place team from the Big 12.

“Oklahoma State finished the season losing their last two, and no matter who the Cowboys play, they're going to give up big numbers,” Avello said. “Mississippi has played a very tough schedule this year, and nothing should surprise the Rebels.”

Peach Bowl - Houston Cougars vs. Florida State Seminoles (-7)

The Seminoles (10-2 SU, 8-4 ATS) were ninth in the playoff rankings, above Mississippi (12th) and Oklahoma State (16th), but got the less-glamorous matchup with a trip to Atlanta. Florida State finished the season pretty strong, cashing five in a row while going 4-1 SU, with the only loss at Clemson. The ‘Noles capped the regular season with a 27-2 beatdown of Florida giving 2.5 points on the road.

Houston (12-1 SU, 8-5 ATS) got into a New Year’s Six bowl by virtue of being the highest-rated team from the Group of 5 – the five non-power conferences. The Cougars, ranked 18th, won Saturday’s American Athletic Conference title game 24-13 giving 5.5 points against Temple.

“This is a big spot for a Houston team that normally plays in the Armed Forces Bowl or the Compass Bowl,” Avello said. “The Cougars catch a very successful team during the bowl season in Florida State, which has won six of its last seven bowl games. It's all about preparation, and we'll see if Houston coach Tom Herman, the former Ohio State offensive coordinator, learned anything from Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer.”

Three college football bowl bets you shouldn't wait on

Utah currently stands as a 2.5-point favorite over BYU and most books still have that line. But a few have gone to -3 already.

Las Vegas Bowl: Utah Utes (-2.5) vs. BYU Cougars

Utah currently stands as a 2.5-point favorite over BYU and most books still have that line. But a few have gone to -3 already. I expect this line to hit the key number of three at the majority of sportsbooks, so shrewd bettors should jump on this game now.

Brigham Young is losing head coach Bronco Mendenhall to Virginia, but he will coach the Cougars in this game. However, that's a tricky situation, especially for the players who will be returning to BYU next season. They may tune Mendenhall out, and the distraction is enough to make BYU a fragile team. Utah has no such issues, and they'll come with their best effort against an in-state rival. Bettors should play this game now and take the best of the number.

New Mexico Bowl: New Mexico Lobos (+10) vs. Arizona Wildcats

This line briefly came out with Arizona as a -12.5 to -13 point favorite over New Mexico, but it quickly settled on the current line of -10. This line should eventually tick down below the key number of 10 at some point, so bettors should get on this game now.

New Mexico is essentially playing a home game. The Lobos went 5-2 SU at home this season with one of those losses only coming by seven points. Arizona went 2-4 SU on the road with one of its wins coming by seven points. The Wildcats went 1-4 SU down the stretch while the Lobos went 3-2 SU over their last five games. Take New Mexico now before the line goes lower.

Hawaii Bowl: Cincinnati Bearcats vs. San Diego State Aztecs (N/A)

Cincinnati and San Diego State are complete opposites. The Bearcats have a potent offense and a terrible defense. Cincinnati likes to throw the ball a lot. They average 373 passing yards per game. The Aztecs run the ball essentially on every play, averaging 48 rushing attempts per game while running for 235 yards per game.

This total, which has yet to hit the board, will be a difficult one for the oddsmakers to set because of the opposite styles of play. Cincinnati is currently a 1.5-point favorite over San Diego State. That indicates that this total may be shaded to the Over just a bit. Cincinnati to the Over and San Diego State to the Under are correlated in this game.

Game of the Day: Army vs. Navy
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Navy quarterback Keenan Reynolds rushed for 100 yards and one touchdown and passed for another score as Navy posted a 17-10 win in last season's meeting.

Army Black Knights vs. Navy Midshipmen (-21.5, 50.5)

Game played at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia

One of college football's great rivalries has barely resembled one of late as Army tries to snap a 13-game losing streak against No. 22 Navy on Saturday in Philadelphia, but oddsmakers don't give the Black Knights much of a chance after installing the Midshipmen a three-touchdown favorite. The biggest factor in Navy's favor is senior quarterback Keenan Reynolds, who is on the verge of becoming the most prolific scorer in NCAA Division I history.

Reynolds has scored all 83 of his touchdowns on the ground and needs two to break the combined FBS and FCS record for rushing TDs set by Georgia Southern's Adrian Peterson and Towson's Terrance West. He also needs one score to break the FBS record for total touchdowns, a mark he shares with former Wisconsin standout Ron Dayne and Louisiana Tech's Kenneth Dixon, who has one game remaining. If the Midshipmen defeat Army, they will have a chance to set a school record for wins in a season with 11 in the Military Bowl against Pittsburgh on Dec. 28, but the Black Knights will be eager to salvage their fifth straight losing season and 18th in the last 19. "If they talk amongst themselves, I allow them to prepare the best way they think they have to prepare themselves mentally but from my standpoint, I never talk about the streak," Midshipmen coach Ken Niumatalolo, who reportedly is a candidate to become coach at BYU, told reporters.

TV: 3 p.m. ET, CBS.

LINE HISTORY: Books opened Navy as 22-point favorites but that has moved to -21.5. The total opened at 54 and is down to 50.5.

WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the low-60s under partly cloudy skies. Wind will blow across the field at around four miles per hour.

INJURY REPORT:

Navy - T Blake Copeland (Questionable, foot), CB Shelley White (Out for season, Achilles), S Kwazel Bertrand (Out for season, ankle), WR Marc Meier (Out for season, knee).

Army - QB A.J. Schurr (Probable, undisclosed), QB Ahmad Bradshaw (Probable, ankle), LB Alex Aukerman (Probable, undisclosed), RB John Trainor (Probable, shoulder), DB Rhyan England (Probable, knee), DL Andrew McLean (Out for season, foot), OL Drew Hennessy (Out for season, ankle), DB Josh Jenkins (Out for season, concussion).

WHAT BOOKS SAY: "Despite the 21.5-point spread that the Midshipmen need to overcome, the action is still almost 2-1 on Navy for bet count and money in Saturday’s 3pm ET Army/Navy game. The line has danced around a little between 23 and 21.5, however it appears to be quite stable at this point. With a spread of 21.5, and a total of 50.5, it’s obvious that there isn’t much faith in Army being able to score more than 10 points in the game."

WHAT CAPPERS SAY: "Navy is already locked into a bowl game as they play Pittsburgh in the Military Bowl on December 28th. Normally a team might get caught looking ahead in this situation, but Navy should remain focused for their arch rival Army as this game is actually a bigger game for the Midshipmen. This will be Army's "bowl" game as the Black Knights are just 2-9 SU this season. Army only has an 8% chance of winning this game straight-up, so the question becomes can they stay within the inflated pointspread of three full touchdowns. Normally, military teams make decent big underdogs as they run the ball and keep the clock moving. However, the negative is that once Army gets behind, they cannot catch up since they have no passing game. The line is inflated compared to prior matchups as Army has been just a +12 point underdog on average in the past nine meetings versus Navy, with an average loss by -17 points per game."

ABOUT NAVY (9-2 SU, 8-3 ATS, 7-4 O/U): The Midshipmen boast a potent rushing attack with Reynolds (1,093 yards, 19 touchdowns) and senior fullback Chris Swain (847, 10). Navy would claim the Commander-In-Chief's Trophy - awarded to the service academy that wins the yearly round-robin competition - with a victory after defeating Air Force 33-11 earlier this season. The Midshipmen have been ranked for five straight weeks - their longest run since an all-season 12-week stretch in 1963.

ABOUT ARMY (2-9 SU, 4-6-1 ATS, 4-7 O/U): Coach Jeff Monken hasn't publicly named a starting quarterback for Saturday after freshman Chris Carter made his collegiate debut in a 31-21 loss to Rutgers on Nov. 21 - the Black Knights' fourth straight loss. Carter took over after injuries to sophomore Ahmad Bradshaw (468 rushing yards, five touchdowns) and senior A.J. Schurr (384 rushing yards, seven TDs) - Army's second- and third-leading runners. Junior Aaron Kemper has a team-high 506 rushing yards and three touchdowns while Edgar Poe has five TDs - the most by a Black Knights receiver since 2009.

TRENDS:

* Under is 9-0 in the last nine meetings.
* Midshipmen are 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall.
* Black Knights are 0-5 ATS in their last five games following a straight up loss.
* Over is 4-0 in Midshipmen last four games overall.

CONSENSUS: Fifty-three percent of users are backing Army.

Big profits from betting these NCAAF small-conference bowl teams

Arkansas State has scored 35 or more points in all of its wins and has hit the 50-point mark in each of the last three games.

Team to watch: Houston Cougars

Line: +7 vs. Florida State in the Peach Bowl

The Houston Cougars had a spectacular season this year and Greg Ward Jr, had he played in a Power 5 conference, could have potentially been a front runner in the Heisman race. Houston amassed an impressive 12-1 record this season and had it not been for a game in which Greg Ward Jr. sat out in versus Connecticut, the Cougars could have potentially ended the season undefeated.

Houston is not a pushover by any means and this contest against Florida State is its chance to prove that the Cougars can hang with the elite teams in the country. They have already knocked off quality teams like Louisville (on the road), Memphis, Temple and Navy this season. The fact that they’re playing in a BCS Bowl game against a Power 5 school like Florida State will only add to their motivation. Florida State will be fortunate to come out of this contest with a win, but it likely won't come easy and Houston will keep things within a touchdown.

Team to beware of: Louisiana Tech Bulldogs

Line: -2 vs. Arkansas State in the New Orleans Bowl

The Arkansas State Red Wolves pose an interesting challenge to the Bulldogs in this contest. Arkansas State has had an impressive season, going 9-3 overall including a perfect 8-0 in conference play. They are an extremely explosive offensive team led by Fredi Knighten and have managed to score 35 or more points in all of their wins this season and have hit the 50-point mark in each of their last three games. They come into this contest on an eight-game winning streak.

Like its counterpart, Louisiana Tech has an extremely prolific offense, ranked fourth all-time in program history in points scored (441) and total yards (5,589). The Bulldogs currently rank 20th in the nation in points per game averaging 36.8 per game. This will no doubt be a high-scoring offensive affair, but the difference in this one will likely be which team is more battle tested. Arkansas State faced arguably the toughest schedule in the nation in the early part of the season taking on both USC and Missouri back-to-back and then an extremely tough Toledo team two weeks later. That toughness and step up in competition will be the difference in this contest.

Total team: Bowling Green Falcons

Line: 66 vs. Georgia Southern in the Go Daddy Bowl

Both of these teams have prolific offenses which should turn this contest into a shootout. Bowling Green comes into this contest ranked fourth in the nation in total offense and has managed to light up the scoreboard in nearly each and every game it’s played. Led by the arm of Matt Johnson, the Falcons rank third in the nation in passing yards per game.

Georgia Southern, on the other hand, is no slouch on the offensive end as it brings the No. 1 ranked rushing offense in the country into this contest. The Eagles come in averaging an impressive 355.6 yards per game on the ground behind the legs of Michael Breida. This should be a highly-entertaining, offensive contest with both teams possibly cracking the 40-point mark.

South Florida Bulls: After starting the season 1-3, Willie Taggart’s Bulls went on to win seven of their final eight outings by an average of 22.5 points per game, which includes four consecutive ATS wins to conclude the season.

Akron Zips: One of the stingier defenses in the land, Akron held the opposition to 21 or fewer points in eight of the program’s final ten games while boasting a turnover differential of plus-8 on the season.

Utah State Aggies: Utah State head coach Matt Wells is a perfect 2-0 both SU and ATS the spread in bowl games, but be advised that his squad lost three of its final four regular season contest.

Marmot Boca Raton Bowl: Tuesday, December 22

Toledo Rockets: The Rockets have failed to cover the spread only two times over the team’s last 15 games. However, Toledo is currently receiving just 21 percent of the action heading into the Marmot Boca Raton Bowl.

Temple Owls: The Owls are 10-4 ATS over their last 14 games overall and should have plenty of motivation for this matchup considering the fact that the program hasn’t appeared in a bowl game in four years.

Boise State Broncos: The Broncos are 5-2 ATS over their last seven bowl games while current head coach Bryan Harsin is a perfect 1-0 both SU and ATS in postseason play.

Popeyes Bahamas Bowl: Thursday, December 24

Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders: The Raiders finished the 2015 regular season a perfect 4-0 both SU and ATS while outscoring the opposition 134-55 and averaging 495.7 total yards per game.

Western Michigan Broncos: Head coach P.J. Fleck looks to rebound from his only other bowl game performance, a 38-24 loss to Air Force last December. As it currently stands, Western Michigan is receiving approximately 69 percent of the action for this showdown.

Hawai’i Bowl: Thursday, December 24

San Diego State Aztecs: One of the nation’s premiere defensive units, San Diego State won each of its final nine games while surrendering the staggering average of just 12.6 points per contest with 24 turnovers forced. During that nine-game stretch, the Aztecs went 7-1-1 against the spread.

Cincinnati Bearcats: As a program, the Bearcats are just 2-6 ATS over their last eight bowl games while head coach Tommy Tuberville is a career 6-6 ATS in postseason play.

St. Petersburg Bowl: Saturday, December 26

Connecticut Huskies: The Huskies are just 7-17 ATS over their last 24 games overall, but be advised that this is the program’s first bowl appearance since 2011 when UConn fell 48-20 to Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl.

Marshall Thundering Herd: The Herd are a perfect 4-0 ATS over their last four bowl games, with head coach Doc Holliday a sterling 3-0 both SU and ATS in postseason play.

Hyundai Sun Bowl: Saturday, December 26

Miami Hurricanes: Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Remember when “The U” was the most feared collegiate football program on the planet? Well, this iteration of the Hurricanes has lost five consecutive bowl games by an average of 11.8 points per contest. However, Miami did go 4-1 SU after firing head coach Al Golden following a 58-0 loss to Clemson.

Washington State Cougars: As of publication, Washington State was receiving approximately 76 percent of spread bets entering the Hyundai Sun Bowl, which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise considering the fact that the program went 8-1 ATS over their final nine matchups of the season.

Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl: Saturday, December 26

Washington Huskies: Head coach Chris Petersen is a career 5-3 both SU and ATS in postseason play but is looking to avenge his only bowl game loss while leading the Washington program, which came in the form of a 30-22 defeat to Oklahoma State last January.

Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles: Southern Mississippi is a perfect 6-0 ATS over its last six non-conference games and 10-3 ATS over its last 13 contests overall. In addition, this is the program’s first bowl game since defeating Nevada 24-17 in the 2011 Hawai’i Bowl.

New Era Pinstripe Bowl: Saturday, December 26

Indiana Hoosiers: The Hoosiers are 5-1 ATS over their last six non-conference games, but more importantly, this is the program’s first bowl game since suffering a 49-33 defeat at the hands of Oklahoma State in 2007. Not surprisingly, approximately 83 percent of the early action sides with the Hoosiers.

Duke Blue Devils: Duke is 1-4 ATS over its last five games overall and enters postseason play having been outscored 190-132 over its last five contests.

Camping World Independence Bowl: Saturday, December 26

Tulsa Golden Hurricane: Tulsa is 4-1 ATS over its last five bowl games, but this is head coach Phillip Montgomery’s first career postseason appearance.

Virginia Tech Hokies: Two words: Frank Beamer. The legendary Hokies frontman will call it a career after the Independence Bowl following 29 seasons on the Virginia Tech sidelines.

Foster Farms Bowl: Saturday, December 26

UCLA Bruins: Head coach Jim Mora Jr. is a perfect 3-0 ATS in bowl games while his Bruins are 4-1 ATS over their last five games against Big Ten opposition.

Nebraska Cornhuskers: The Huskers are just 1-4 ATS over their last five games against Pac-12 opponents.

Military Bowl: Monday, December 28

Pittsburgh Panthers: Head coach Pat Narduzzi’s first career bowl appearance will come while leading a Panthers program that is just 2-6 ATS over its last eight matchups against non-conference opponents.

Navy Midshipmen: Navy is 7-3 ATS over its last 10 bowl games, but the real key here is the fact that ultra-prolific quarterback Keenan Reynolds (115 career touchdowns) will be under center for the final time in Navy’s colors.

Quick Lane Bowl: Monday, December 28

Central Michigan Chippewas: The Chippewas are 10-3 ATS over their last 13 games overall, 5-0 ATS over their last five non-conference games and 4-1-1 ATS over their last six bowl games.

Minnesota Golden Gophers: The Gophers are just 1-4 ATS over their last five bowl games and enter postseason play having dropped five of their final six contests by an average of 11.0 points per outing.

Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl: Tuesday, December 29

California Golden Bears: California went just 1-5 ATS over its final six contests while giving up an average of 203.5 rushing yards per game during the 2015 campaign. That doesn’t bode well for a matchup with Air Force, who averaged 58.7 rushing attempts and 322.1 rushing yards per game this year.

Air Force Falcons: The Falcons are 6-1 ATS over their last seven games overall and 8-2 ATS over their last 10 matchups against teams with a winning record. In addition, Air Force is 4-1 ATS over its last five bowl games.

Russell Athletic Bowl: Tuesday, December 29

North Carolina Tar Heels: Approximately 70 percent of the early action is on head coach Larry Fedora and the Tar Heels, but you have to wonder how motivated North Carolina is to play in a December 29 bowl game after winning 11 straight contests and having an outside shot at qualifying for college football’s four-team playoff before falling 45-37 to Clemson in the ACC title game.

Baylor Bears: The Bears are just 1-5 ATS over their last six games overall and, just like in North Carolina’s case, you have to question the program’s motivation to play in this game after their 8-0 start resulted in a 9-3 finish.

Nova Home Loans Arizona Bowl: Tuesday, December 29

Nevada Wolf Pack: The Pack’s six victories came against teams with a combined record of 25-47, with only one of those programs (New Mexico) concluding the regular season with a winning record.

Colorado State Rams: The Rams enter postseason play having won four straight games by an average of 10.7 points per contest.

Advocare V100 Texas Bowl: Tuesday, December 29

LSU Tigers: Considering all the nonsense that took place in Louisiana at the end of the regular season surrounding the program’s head coach position, do you really want to bet against Les Miles in this spot? After all, the last thing Miles wants to do here is give the boosters a reason to regret not firing him. As of publication, approximately 72 percent of all spread bets placed for the Advocare V100 bowl sided with LSU.

Texas Tech Red Raiders: The Red Raiders are 10-4-1 ATS over their last 14 games overall while head coach Kliff Kingsbury is a perfect 1-0 both SU and ATS in postseason play.

Birmingham Bowl: Wednesday, December 30

Auburn Tigers: The Tigers are an abysmal 5-18 ATS over their last 23 games overall and 0-8 ATS over their last eight non-conference matchups.

Memphis Tigers: Led by one of the top signal-callers in the country in Paxton Lynch, Memphis burst from the gates in early September with eight consecutive victories. But the Tigers faltered down the stretch in the face of quality competition with losses to Navy, Houston and Temple before defeating SMU in the season finale. However, be advised that this program is still 18-7-2 ATS over its last 27 non-conference showdowns.

Belk Bowl: Wednesday, December 30

North Carolina State Wolfpack: The Wolfpack are 5-1-1 ATS over their last seven bowl games, but concluded the 2015 campaign with just one ATS win in their final five outings.

Mississippi State Bulldogs: Despite approximately 76 percent of the early spread bets coming in on Mississippi State, the line for the 2015 Belk Bowl hasn’t budged from its opening position of MSU -5. Note that Bulldogs head coach Dan Mullen is 3-2 SU and 2-3 ATS in postseason play.

Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl: Wednesday, December 30

Texas A&M Aggies: While Aggies head coach Kevin Sumlin is 4-1 both SU and ATS during his career in bowl games, be advised that the point spread for this contest has moved drastically, with Texas A&M going from a 3-point favorite to a 1.5-point underdog as of publication. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the Aggies went just 1-6 ATS over their final seven games of the season.

Louisville Cardinals: The Cardinals are 6-2 ATS over their last eight matchups with SEC opponents. However, note that head coach Bobby Petrino is just 2-6 ATS in postseason play.

Holiday Bowl: Wednesday, December 30

USC Trojans: USC head coach Clay Helton went just 1-4 ATS over his final five games of the season before firing his entire defensive coaching staff after watching his squad get dismantled 41-22 by Stanford in the Pac-12 championship game. However, USC is 9-3 ATS over its last 12 meetings against Big Ten competition.

Wisconsin Badgers: The Badgers are just 1-5 ATS over their last six neutral-site games, which may serve as one reason why only 21 percent of all spread bets placed on this game at the time of publication came in on Wisconsin.

Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl: Thursday, December 31

Houston Cougars: The Cougars are 27-13-1 ATS over their last 41 games overall and won every single contest started by dynamic signal-caller Greg Ward Jr. this season. In addition, Houston is 6-1 ATS over its last seven non-conference showdowns.

Florida State Seminoles: The Seminoles are 8-1-1 ATS over their last 10 bowl game appearances and 5-0 ATS over their last five games overall.

Capital One Orange Bowl: Thursday, December 31

Oklahoma Sooners: At the time of publication, only 38 percent of spread bets placed on the Orange Bowl were in support of an Oklahoma squad that went 6-1 ATS over its final seven games of the season and 8-3 ATS over its previous 11 non-conference matchups. However, it’s worth noting that “Big Game” Bob Stoops is just 8-8 straight-up and 7-9 ATS in bowl games during his illustrious career. Arguably the most popular choice to win it all amongst sharp bettors, Oklahoma won seven straight games by an average of 32.1 points per contest after losing to Texas on October 10.

Clemson Tigers: The biggest test of head coach Dabo Swinney’s career, be advised that Clemson covered the spread just one time over its final five games during the 2015 season. Also note that the pointspread in this matchup has moved from Oklahoma -3.5 to Oklahoma -4 despite the fact that 62 percent of the action is currently favoring the Tigers. If nothing else, it tells us that the while the ticket count favors Clemson, the majority of the money bet on this game supports Oklahoma.

Goodyear Cotton Bowl: Thursday, December 31

Michigan State Spartans: After falling 39-38 at Nebraska on November 7, Michigan State destroyed their following four opponents by an average of 15.0 points per game. Sparty is now 6-0-1 ATS over their last six neutral-site games and 4-0 ATS over their last four bowl matchups, while head coach Mark Dantonio is 6-3 ATS for his career in postseason play.

Alabama Crimson Tide: Despite being universally recognized as the best head coach in the nation, Nick Saban is just 8-8 both SU and ATS in bowl games during his career. However, Alabama covered the number four times over their final five games of the 2015 season and is 5-1 ATS over its last six matchups against Big Ten opposition.

Outback Bowl: Friday, January 1

Northwestern Wildcats: He may be just 1-4 in bowl games as the head coach at Northwestern, but be advised that Pat Fitzgerald is 4-1 ATS in postseason play.

Tennessee Volunteers: Head coach Butch Jones is 3-1 ATS in bowl games during his career, which includes a 1-0 ATS mark as the boss at Tennessee following last January’s 45-28 dismantling of the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Taxslayer Bowl.

Battlefrog Fiesta Bowl: Friday, January 1

Notre Dame Fighting Irish: The Irish are 7-1 ATS over their last eight games against teams with a winning record and 7-3 ATS over their last 10 games overall, but be advised that head coach Brian Kelly is just 2-6 ATS in bowl games for his career.

Ohio State Buckeyes: A 17-14 home loss to Michigan State on November 21 was quickly forgotten following a 42-13 thrashing of the Wolverines in Ann Arbor to close out the season. Pay close attention to the fact that Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer is a blistering 9-2 both SU and ATS in postseason play.

Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl: Friday, January 1

Michigan Wolverines: Head coach Jim Harbaugh is a perfect 2-0 ATS in bowl games during his collegiate coaching career.

Florida Gators: The Gators failed to top 28 points in each of their final eight games of the season and averaged just 12.0 points per game over the program’s final five contests of the 2015 campaign. Be advised that a staggering 84 percent of bets placed on the total for this matchup at the time of publication were in favor of the under.

Rose Bowl: Friday, January 1

Stanford Cardinal: Stanford is 5-1 ATS over its last six bowl games and 12-4 ATS over its last 16 games overall.

Iowa Hawkeyes: Head coach Kirk Ferentz is a career 8-4 ATS in bowl games.

Allstate Sugar Bowl: Friday, January 1

Oklahoma State Cowboys: The Cowboys commenced the 2015 season by winning each of their first ten games before dropping back-to-back home contests to Baylor (45-35) and Oklahoma (58-23) to close out the season. In addition, note that head coach Mike Gundy is just 3-6 ATS in postseason play.

Mississippi Rebels: Ole Miss won four of its final five contests by an average of 15.0 points per game and enters January with a 4-1-1 ATS mark over its last six bowl games.

Taxslayer Bowl: Saturday, January 2

Penn State Nittany Lions: Head coach James Franklin’s first bowl appearance with the Lions resulted in a 31-30 victory over Boston College last December. But more importantly, be advised that the point spread for the Taxslayer Bowl has shifted off the key number of Georgia -7 to Georgia -6.5 despite the fact that 52 percent of the bets already placed have been in support of the Bulldogs.

Georgia Bulldogs: Big question mark here as former head coach Mark Richt is now in Miami not to mention the fact that several of his assistants have also bolted the Georgia program for other positions around the country. Georgia could very well lay an egg in this matchup, so proceed with extreme caution.

Autozone Liberty Bowl: Saturday, January 2

Kansas State Wildcats: The Wildcats are just 1-6 ATS over their last seven bowl games while head coach Bill Snyder is a career 7-9 SU and 5-11 ATS in postseason play. However, give Kansas State credit for turning a midseason six-game losing stretch into a three-game winning to close out the year and get bowl eligible.

Arkansas Razorbacks: It all came together and started clicking for Bret Bielema and the Razorbacks on October 24 when Arkansas beat Auburn 54-46 in quadruple overtime to ignite a six-game stretch in which the program recorded five victories. Arkansas is now 6-2 ATS over its last eight games overall and 6-1 ATS over its last seven games against Big 12 opposition.

Valero Alamo Bowl: Saturday, January 2

Oregon Ducks: After a disappointing 3-3 start to commence the 2015 campaign, many around the country turned their back on Mark Helfrich and the Ducks. That wound up being a big mistake as Oregon rattled off six straight wins by an average of 10 points per game to close out the year. Take note that the Ducks are 5-1 ATS over their last six games overall and 5-2 ATS over their last seven bowl games.

TCU Horned Frogs: The Horned Frogs are just 1-7 ATS over their last eight neutral-site games and 1-5 ATS over their last six bowl games.

Motel 6 Cactus Bowl: Saturday, January 2

West Virginia Mountaineers: The Mountaineers are just 1-5 ATS over their last six bowl games, but be advised that this point spread has shifted from ASU -1 to West Virginia -1 despite the fact that 60 percent of the spread bets placed at the time of publication sided with the Sun Devils.

Arizona State Sun Devils: The Sun Devils are just 1-6 ATS over their last seven bowl games.
