Thursday , DEC 26th :
4pm : La Tech Vs Miami U - Miami is the more talented team BUT this play is about motivation. Miami has some offensive players out and travels to Shreveport which is essentially a home game for La Tech. The U is only 2-9 ATS its last 11 bowl games. LA TECH +6.5 2 stars
8pm: Pitt vs Eastern Mich - this is simply another play on spread record and motivation. Pitt has not fared well as a double digit favorite going just 2-6-1 its last 9 while Eastern Mich is 6-1 ATS as a double digit dog its last 7. Eastern Mich is also 21-6 away from home ATS . since 2016. So Hedgie sees this as the motivated team today. Eastern MICH +11.5 1 star
* both these lines are likely to be bet up since public bettors are only familiar with the U and Pitt....so you can probably wait and catch better lines
FRIDAY , DEC 27th :
3:20pm Michigan State / Wake Forest : the PINSTRIPE BOWL Yankee Stadium . It's been a rough year for Michigan State and they come limping into this game 3-13 ATS their last 16 games. Their defense has been ok but their offense has been abysmal. Sparty nation probably would like to see their QB of the future but HC D'antonio says he's sticking with his senior QB who has struggled all year. On the other side Wake Forest has some injury concerns. Their staring QB is banged up but is apparently a go. One of their star WRs Surratt remains out as well. Hedgie has a hard time seeing how Mich State is favored here and 15 of their last 20 games have gone under the number. This will probably be the nly Bowl Teaser the hedgie makes....leaning Wake Forest . Leaning under....take +6.5 (-120)
TEASER : WAKE FOREST +10 & UNDER 56.5 1 star
10:15 PM: Washington State / Air Force : Pure Passing team Vs Option Team . Both teams will have a hard time preparing for each other and Both teams strength is vs the opponents weakness. HC Mike Leach is an offensive genius and his team is 6th in the Nation in total offense. Meanwhile , AIR FORCE averaged 293 yards rushing per game and Washington St can't stop the run. Hedgie's favorite play today is OVER 68.....additionally, Air Force has been a covering machine going 21-7 ATS in its last 28 . non conference games and 5-2 ATS in its last 7 Bowl Games
Air Force/ Washington State OVER 68 4 stars
Air Force -2.5 1 star
