Play: West Virginia (-2.5 -110) Line Source: SPORTSBOOK Posted on: December 31, 2009 @ 9:31:04 PM EST College Bowl Game of the Year Release Florida State vs. West Virginia With this being Bobby Bowden's last game as the head coach of the Seminoles the public is all over Florida State here feeling all of his players and coaches will want to send him out a winner. This emotion will last maybe a quarter and than perhaps the worst defense of all the bowls teams will come crashing down as the Mountaineers roll to the lopsided win here today. The Mountaineers have won four consecutive bowls and # 5 is on tap here as West Virginia dominates in all aspects of the game here today. Seminoles are 1-5 ATS vs. a team with a winning record. Seminoles are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games after allowing more than 450 total yards in their previous game.

Play: Louisiana State (+1 -110) Line Source: SPORTSBOOK Posted on: December 31, 2009 @ 9:39:22 PM EST LSU & Penn State at Orlando We are having a hard time seeing the Nittany Lions as the favorite here. They didn't beat a single ranked team all season and their two toughest games, against Iowa and Ohio State at home none the less were losses by a combined 28 points. While Coach Paterno has strong career bowl game marks his teams have dropped 5 of their last 8 post season appearances. When it comes to SEC & Big 10 games as of late the southern outfit has shown a much superior edge in speed, and we simply don't think the midwest contingent has made enough progress. Coach Miles is a perfect 4-0 straight up and ATS in bowl action and the former Michigan man would love nothing better than getting the best of a Big 10 squad. LSU is a perfect 22-0 straight up and 14-6 ATS against non-conference competition since Miles entered the Bayou. With the SEC being 9-3 ATS in the roll of bowl dogs we will step out with a sizable play on the underdog Tigers. PLAY LSU

The Buckeyes are not playing in the BCS Title game like they did in 2006 & 2007; however, this game is very import to Coach Tressel. The Buckeyes will enter this game on a three game bowl losing streak.

Matchup: Ohio State at Oregon Time: 5:00 PM EDT (Fri) Play: Ohio State (+4 -110) Line Source: SPORTSBOOK Posted on: December 31, 2009 @ 9:41:59 PM EST 6 Unit Play. #25 Take Ohio State over Oregon (Rose Bowl Friday 4:30 pm ABC) Top Bowl Game. The Buckeyes are not playing in the BCS Title game like they did in 2006 & 2007; however, this game is very import to Coach Tressel. The Buckeyes will enter this game on a three game bowl losing streak. Ohio State has not played since November 21st, one must wonder if the layoff will hurt them. My opinion is no, as this will give Coach Tressel more time to finally win a bowl game. As one looks at the Ducks, their offense has been outstanding but the defense has been a real question mark. Now that outstanding offense has to face one of the best defenses in the country. This defense held USC to 18 points and Penn State to 7. Ohio State will come ready to play and they have the talent to stop the Ducks and a low scoring upset would not surprise me. Ohio State 21, Oregon 17.

3* New Year's Day Bailout (Sugar Bowl, FOX) on Florida -12.5 I think this spread is this high for a reason. When you hear Florida's players talk about Urban Meyer, they absolutely love this guy. This very well could be Meyer's last game as Florida's head coach, and while I don't think it will be, I expect the Gators to treat it that way by sending out their leader with a bang. And then there's that Tim Tebow guy who MUST end his storied career on a winning note. While Florida is disappointed that it is not playing in the BCS championship game, it won't fail to take this opportunity to show the undefeated Bearcats how overrated they are. "It's full speed ahead. We're going to do everything possible to win this game," Meyer said. The fact that Meyer is back for this game gives his team a big lift while the Bearcats suffer with Brian Kelly walking away. The key here is how good Florida is defensively, doing it against, perhaps, the best conference in the country. The Gators are only allowing 11.5 ppg and their 3rd ranked pass defense figures to test the Bearcats beyond what they have seen. This says it all to me: Florida is 9-1 ATS versus good teams outscoring their opponents by 10 or more ppg over the last 3 seasons, winning in these spots by 17.3 points on average. Take Florida.
