Bowl season…
Tis’ the season to avoid those end-of-the-year work projects and watch college football during weekday work time instead.
It’s so much fun there used to be an advertising jingle for it.
It also means the season is coming to a close. So, let’s get right into this weekend’s action.
Mr. Yours Truly, Mr. SportsKnowItAll, is going with a mixed 6-game parlay between the Bowl Season and NFL games.
‘Never Bet the Farm3’ Week 15:
Southern Miss -6.5 vs Rice
UNDER 41 total points Marshall @ UConn
OVER 43.0 total points MIA Dolphins @ BUF Bills
DEN Broncos -1.5 vs ARI Cardinals
UNDER 45 total points CIN Bengals @ TB Buccaneers
NE Patriots +1 @ LV Raiders
Insights:
I’m pretty sure Rice, with a losing record, got into this Bowl game because they get good grades. That’s great and all that jazz, but I’m betting against them on the field. Look for Southern Miss to win easily!
On Monday afternoon, get ready for a defense like no other – the Thundering Herd defense. UConn is going to try to run the ball (because that’s what they do), but it’s going to be a struggle against Marshall. We’ll see if they can do it. Regardless, I’m going with the under!
Even in the snow, Miami and Buffalo are going to light the field on fire tonight! Snow games are tough to predict, but these two offenses are already too tough to cover with traction. Now, imagine covering Diggs and Hill without traction. You’re not. I’m going with the over!
The Denver Broncos won’t have Russell Wilson this week, and I honestly think the offense might play better. Arizona isn’t any good either, but I see the Broncos in a full-blown QB controversy by Monday. Look for Denver to win and cover!
The GOAT vs the Future GOAT… Maybe? It’ll be many years until we truly know the latter. In this particular game, the Bengals are a much better team. But Cincinnati doesn’t really run up the score – generally. Therefore, I’m going with the under!
Why is New England an underdog? Neither team is good. I get it. But what makes you think Belichick is going to allow his former assistant to beat him? Bill talked Josh out of a job before, remember? I got a feeling this is simply a more roundabout method. Look for New England to make the upset!
The bowl-worthy Barstool Sportsbook & Casino App bet builder shows me how $10 should turn into a present of $485.45 before you start working Tuesday morning (we both know you’re during last-minute Christmas shopping online Monday at work). Badda-bing, Badda-boom.
EASY MONEY !!!
Just remember all you wannabes…
Don’t bet any more than you’re willing to lose, and never bet the farm3.
