Tue 12/27 241 Baylor +7? -130

Fri 12/30 259 North Carolina +7 -140
2:00PM 260 Stanford -7 +100

8:00PM 266 Michigan -6? -110

Seen a few 4's and 5's for Michigan after opening number of -7 1/2, Florida State with tenacious "D" and steallar RB who's probably going to be playing in his last game for Noles.

LSU vs Louisville - Citrus Bowl - Camping World Stadium - Orlando. FL
Mon 1/2 267 LSU -3? -120
11:00AM 268 Louisville +3? -120

Heisman jinx game possibly and Ed Orgeron's first as newly named HC for Tigers, could be a bad greeting as a small fav over an ACC team with higher expectations.


Kentucky vs Georgia Tech - Taxslayer Bowl - Everbank Field - Jacksonville, FL
Sat 12/31 269 Kentucky +3 -125
11:00AM 270 Georgia Tech -3 -115

3:00PM 272 Alabama -13? -138

Got a slew of lines here for Bama, pick and choose, I'm leaning heavy on the dog as the line is up to 16 or more at some houses, way too premature to jump on the fav in this tilt right now.


Ohio State vs Clemson - Fiesta Bowl - University of Phoenix Stadium - Glendale, AZ
Sat 12/31 273 Ohio State -3 -110 -153
7:00PM 274 Clemson +3 -110 +133

7:00PM 274 Clemson +2? +110
Sat 12/31 273 Ohio State -3? +110
7:00PM 274 Clemson +3? -130

Clemson man for man matches up with OSU easily and they have the better QB in Watson imo.

Iowa vs Florida - Outback Bowl - Raymond James Stadium - Tampa, FL
Mon 1/2 275 Iowa +1? -120
1:00PM 276 Florida -1? -120

Should be a decent game at the Tampa Buc's stadium. Ferrett face vs SEC blowout loser.

Western Michigan vs Wisconsin - Cotton Bowl - AT&T Stadium - Arlington, TX
Mon 1/2 277 Western Michigan +8? -125
1:00PM 278 Wisconsin -8? +105

Wisky vs the undefeated. Bring an extra OAR.

USC vs Penn State - Rose Bowl - Rose Bowl - Pasadena, CA
Mon 1/2 279 USC -7? +105
5:00PM 280 Penn State +7? -125
Mon 1/2 279 USC -7 -115
5:00PM 280 Penn State +7 -105
Mon 1/2 279 USC -6? -135
5:00PM 280 Penn State +6? +115

Penn State still getting no love, several lines to choose from, I'll bite closer to game day on this one, you have a Frosh QB in Darnold vs a scrappy QB in McSorley who busted his ass vs Wisky. USC "D" is not the same as Wisky's imo.

Auburn vs Oklahoma - Sugar Bowl - Mecedes-Benz Superdome - New Orleans, LA
Mon 1/2 281 Auburn +5 -110
8:30PM 282 Oklahoma -5 -110

Is this line right? Sooners by 5? Hmmm...Auburn and Oklahoma both recruit NOLA well, should be an entertaining game.

Excellent WB. One small thing, So Miss (Hattiesburg, Ms) is actually a tad closer to New Orleans than Lafayette. So Miss use to recruit this area real hard (can't blame them), and probably still do. Thanks again, you touched on several things that I hadn't thought about.

I hope it turns out that way but they are probably going to have problems stopping the triple option; maybe they can score enough to make up for that.

I'm hoping the prep time will help...We will see but like 'em....

WildBillPicks7 do you know when Bowl Totals will be out

Hey Sporty, I'm hoping today they will be, if not, probably by next Monday. Vegas likes to get that early side action in, then watch the weather reports and such so that they have the numbers to get that 50/50 action on totals. I'm surprised they didn't come out last night. Some games still off the board because Army/Navy play this weekend, Houston interim HC, QB for for Middle Tenn??? So just keep looking.

The lines link above sometimes has them up for the off-shore places like Pinny, Betonline, WagerWeb and 5D.

GL!!

Georgia favored? LOL Hogs shouldn't be here at 5-7, so they could upset the Dawgs here.


Were you trying to say the Frogs are 5-7? If so, they are not. Not much better at 6-6 though. This will probably be a low scoring game.
