It was a much better Monday with my best bets as I went 3-1 ATS losing the Georgia game in overtime. So I now stand at 10-8 ATS and that’s winning to me. It has been a pleasure doing this again this year and I hope to do it again next year. And now with only 6 bowl game left I will give you my best bets for the remaining bowl games.

 

 

2011-12 College BOWL Games up-to-date stats 

Best Bets 10-8 ATS

 

My first best bet is on Monday, January 9th and it’s on LSU getting a point from Alabama in the BCS CHAMPIONSHIP BOWL. I like LSU plain and simple and why they are getting a point is beyond my intelligence. In my opinion this game should be between Oklahoma State and LSU not Alabama but that’s the BCS for you. They beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa so I see no reason why they can’t beat them New Orleans. After going undefeated in the very tough SEC, I can’t see LSU all of a sudden losing this final game against a team they already beat AND being the underdog besides. Why the bookmakers think Alabama should be favored is just giving LSU more fuel for the fire, snubbing them as the favorite in this game. Take the point LSU won’t need it they will win this game and prove they deserve to be the BCS champions.

 

My next best bet is on Sunday, January 8th, in the GODADDY.COM BOWL between Northern Illinois and Arkansas State and I like the OVER 63. These 2 teams both average in the 30’s and I think this will be a very offensive minded game with both teams having very good quarterbacks in Alpin for the Red Wolves and Harnish for the Huskies. This should be a very entertaining game as both teams should have no problem scoring. Take the over in this game as it should be over before the start of the fourth quarter.

 

My next best bet is on Wednesday, January 4th, in the ORANGE BOWL between West Virginia and Clemson and I like the OVER 62. Both these teams can score as WVU’s quarterback Geno Smith has thrown for 25 touchdowns and Clemson’s Tajh Boyd throwing for 31. Also, both defenses give up almost 4 touchdowns a game so there might not be much defense in this game. This should also be a very entertaining game as I like an offensive game over a defensive one. Take the over in this game as it could be over shortly after halftime.

 

My last best bet of the college season is tonight on VIRGINIA TECH getting 3 points from Michigan in the SUGAR BOWL. In bowl games I always like to bet against the Big 10 and on ACC underdogs, this is the case in this game. Not that I don’t have great respect for what Michigan’s coach has done this year but playing in the Big 10 and playing in the ACC to me are two different things. VT beat Clemson in the ACC championship game and I see momentum from that win carrying into this bowl game. The only thing worrying me is the suspension of both place kickers for VT. I think Denard Robinson will keep Michigan in the game but in the end VT will come out on top. Grab the 3 points but I don’t think VT will need them as they win this game on the up but it will be close.

 

I will be back on Friday night with my NFL playoff picks.

 

 

As always, remember to bet with your head and not over it.    :)
