Let me give you some advice Checkmark. Never pick a team from the MAC. Historically they are awful in bowl games. Right now they have lost both of them as I type and Eastern Michigan is currently losing. Toledo should have been the underdog, they suck.

I picked a bunch of MAC teams in ESPN's Bowl Mania contest this year more of less as a theme in games I don't really care to handicap. Bad idea so far.

One more thing Checkmark! Oregon St is the 7 point favorite, you have them as the underdog. You suckered Marshall Bennet into picking them off your spread. I guess so, how about you tell us who you like now. The game just started and Oregon St. scored a touchdown in under a minute.

I swear that Oregon State was an underdog but I guess they are the 7 point favourite like what you said

Sorry

That's okay buddy, but you better hope Marshall didn't walk up to the window and put his life savings on Oregon St. thinking he was getting seven. If he did and he loses he will be pissed at you.

Percentage wise it was a very minor input error CM considering you are handicapping the world year round, that is not a easy task.

Eight bowl games in the book, the underdog has covered six of them and the game has gone over the number in 7 of 8. The only one that didn't involved a Power 5 team.

I like Old Dominion and the points also. The over/under is 54.5, I will take the over since that is the trend so far this bowl season.

IDAHO POTATO BOWL

Wyoming is a 3.5 favorite over Kent St. with an over/under of 59.5. Wyoming was all over the map this year, destroying Utah St. but barely beating Connecticut. Take Wyoming and the under. If you like Kent St. bet the money line to make more, Kent St. either wins outright over gets beat by a touchdown or more. Kent St. has no defense where Wyoming does.

FRISCO BOWL

San Diego St. is a 3 point favorite over UTSA with an over/under of 49. Polar opposites just like the game above. UTSA has a solid offense but so so defense whereas the Aztecs have a very good defense and a below average offense. Look for this to go over the number and take UTSA plus the three.
