php_snippet_ga-offense Georgia's offense ranked #9 in YPP vs. Alabama's defense ranking #1 in YPP defense: First of all this is the best defense that Georgia has faced all year, but it is also the best most balanced offense that Alabama has faced this year and by far. Auburn comes in at #34 with LSU #42 in S&P. Colorado State from group of 5 conferences ranked #13 and put up 23 points on AlJan 01, 2018 Freddy Wills
Alabama -3 4.4% play As a Clemson fan I hate making this play. I think they are really disrepsected being an under dog here, but I think a deeper look at the match-up and it's rightfully so. Not only did Clemson get in a tough situation with the location of this bowl game being in New Orleans which is a major advantage to Alabama, but they have to go up against a highly motivatedJan 01, 2018 Freddy Wills
Oklahoma +125 5.5% POD The SEC has not played well in bowl games thus far going 1-3 while the Big 12 as I mentioned might just be the best conference this year. They have gone 5-2 in bowl games. The SEC is still getting too much credit for being the SEC, and there is a thought out there that Oklahoma just doesn't play defense which just is not true. Oklahoma went on the road and faced OhioJan 01, 2018 Freddy Wills
Notre Dame +145 1.5% Free Play - 10-5 ATS on Free plays during the 2017 season, and 12-3 ATS in 2016. This is our first free play of the bowl season. The SEC was not as strong this season, and LSU has worst losses coming against Miss State, Troy, and Alabama. LSU will be without their OC Matt Canada who is out, and that's a big deal in this game. Notre Dame's defense is also a lot healthieJan 01, 2018 Freddy Wills
Michigan -7.5 -1.05This game reminds me a lot of Michigan's bowl game 2 years ago against a Florida team that had a very bad offense and good defense. Michigan defeated them 41-7 in that bowl game. I think the extra time off helps Michigan more than it does South Carolina, and I think Michigan is looking to make a statement. Brandon Peters will start at QB which makes a world ofDec 31, 2017 Freddy Wills

Wisconsin / Miami Under 45 3.3% play These are two of the slower paced teams in the country at 95th, and 100th and both will lean on the run slowing this game down even more in my opinion. Both teams are led by their defenses who have stepped up in big games. Even Miami who gave up 38 points to Clemson held that offense to 331 yards. You have Miami with their young QB Rosier who down thDec 30, 2017 Freddy Wills
Washington +115 3% playLooking at these two teams it's like looking in a mirror there are so many similarities. Both were considered as the #4 playoff team last year and Washington got in over Penn State. Both teams this year have faced similar competition with Washington facing probably more balanced competition from an offensive and defensive perspective (better offenses in PAC12).&nDec 30, 2017 Freddy Wills
Iowa State +165 4% play This is great value right now on a Big 12 team that actually plays defense. Iowa State held 9 of its 10 conference foes to 10 or more points below their season average. They are the only team to defeat Oklahoma, and they also had a quality win over TCU. They have all the right things to pull this "upset."Memphis is a high tiered offense that can run aDec 30, 2017 Freddy Wills
A match-up between the Big 12 and the SEC will prove a lot moving forward. Is the SEC still alive and dominant or is there more parity in college football?Dec 30, 2017 Freddy Wills
Here is a look at the Clemson vs. Alabama match-up for this year's college football playoff from a stat and strength of schedule perspective.Dec 29, 2017 Freddy Wills
USC / Ohio State Over 64.5 3.3% PLAY / USC +8 2.2% PLAYBoth teams rank in the top 15 in explosive plays and both offensive strengths are their opponents defensive weaknesses. USC gave up 49 and 35 points the two times they faced a good running team who also had a good running QB. Ohio State has averaged 53 points per game when they don't face a top 50 run defense. Ohio State hasDec 29, 2017 Freddy Wills
Arizona State +7 3.3% play We have a unique situation with a coach being fired and sticking around for the bowl game to coach while the new coach is out recruiting. Originally I thought that might be a nightmare of a situation, but the more I am reading the more I am understanding that Todd Graham is respected around this program. He has recruited all of these players who are a tiDec 29, 2017 Freddy Wills
Wake Forest -3 5.5% POD This game is being played at BOA in Charlotte which gives Wake Forest a home field advantage. I also think there is a lot of value here with Wake Forest who had better results and faced a tougher schedule. On average they ranked #41.2 facing an average opponent ranking #56.1, while Texas A&m ranked #71 facing an average opponent ranking #59.7. A&M went 1-4 agDec 28, 2017 Freddy Wills
Michigan State -1.5 5.5% PODThis Michigan State team has a huge chip on their shoulder as they feel slighted for not being picked for the New Year's Day Outback Bowl. instead their rival who they beat, Michigan was chosen. I think they will give it their best to win and dominate this game and I think they can over a Washington team that has plenty of holes.First of all we need to bringDec 28, 2017 Freddy Wills
Stanford +140 3.5% play I like Stanford in this spot with David Shaw in the under dog role he is 11-3-1 ATS lifetime with 10 outright upsets. Stanford has also played the tougher schedule according to S&P, and they played their best football down the stretch. Even their defense picked up down the stretch and I think they match up well here in this game against TCU who is a borDec 28, 2017 Freddy Wills
Oklahoma State -5.5 3.3% play This is a bit of a square play for me, but I have said all along that I thought the Big 12 was a bit better than the ACC from top to bottom. This to me is a bad match-up for Virginia Tech. Oklahoma State is a balanced offense that probably would have better numbers had their offensive line not been banged up in the middle of the season. Virginia Tech leans on theDec 28, 2017 Freddy Wills
Virginia -1 4.4% play I really like this match-up for Virginia in their first bowl appearance in 6 years. If this wasn't being played on Navy's home field this might be a max POD. Nonetheless, Virginia is about 150 miles away and should still have plenty of fans in the stands to balance it out a bit. The ACC went 3-0 vs. the AAC this year outscoring them by 30 points.

Texas +130 3% playTom Herman as an under dog is a profitable bet going 9-1 ATS with 6 outright upsets. We backed him and Texas on several occasions this year in this very role. Tom Herman is building a winning program here at Texas, and the defense was the story in 2017 ranking 5th vs. the run, and 51st vs. the pass in a very talented QB conference in the Big 12. Texas went up against 4 QB's thDec 27, 2017 Freddy Wills
Purdue +142 5.5% POD Coaching edge to Jeff Brohm here as Rich Rodriguez has a 2-8 ATS bowl record, but for some reason Arizona is favored probably because of Khalil Tate. This offense reminds me of the offenses that Rodriguez had at Michigan with Denard Robinson which you can easily scheme for. If you can stop the run you should win the game and perhaps even dominate. The other thing to con
