30 DIMER - OREGON STATE BEAVERS....10 DIMER - NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS 30 DIMER - OREGON STATE BEAVERS
BYU is playing in Vegas for the 5th straight season, and while the proximity of BYU to Las Vegas makes it a no-brainer for the bowl to have BYU participate, the Cougars playing this game against the Pac 10 has not been so kind to BYU.
BYU covered just 1 of their last 4 bowl games against the Pacific 10, and this Oregon State team is likely to drop that number to just 1 cover in 5 tries.
Oregon State brings some serious matchup problems to the table for the Cougars, as the Rodgers brothers will see to it that the Beavers team speed is used to its fullest potential tonight.
The Beavers bring a nice 5-0 straight up bowl record under Mike Riley into Sin City this evening, and they have also covered in 4 of those 5 bowl games.
With Sean Canfield firing away, Quizz Rodgers slicing and dicing, and James Rodgers hauling in passes, I have a strong feeling the Beavers will prevail in this one.
Mark the G-Man down for a play on the Beavers to notch another bowl win and cover.
10 DIMER - NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS
I feel bad for Marshall tonight, as North Carolina just allowed 103 points to Texas in their weekend loss at Cowboys Stadium.
I have a feeling Roy Williams cracked the whip at practice, and you will see a defensive effort put forth tonight from the Heels.
Marshall brings in a 9-1 record to tonight's game, but playing the likes of High Point, Brescia, Binghamton, and Salem International is not the same as going up against ACC heavyweight North Carolina.
Not only going up against the Heels, but going up against them after a loss like they just suffered, and also having to play them in their own gym!
UNC has covered 8 of their last 11 lined home games, and they will roll tonight.
