“Bear Bets” are actual bets Chris “The Bear” Phallic is definitely doing.
College soccer bowl season is underway and underway.
Just like we have performed all yr, we now have our weekly posts on picks and playing present.
As at all times, I am unable to wait to share my finest soccer bets and playing nuggets (Bear Bytes) with you.
So should you’re seeking to spend some cash on massive video games, I’ve obtained you lined.
Let’s have some enjoyable and hopefully make some cash.
Here are my favourite bets thus far this bowl season.
DOCUMENTATION
Last week: 1-1 (one match pending)
Season: 51-36-2
(All occasions ET)
Louisville in opposition to Washington (2 p.m., CBS)
December thirty first
Playing newbie psychologist is at all times a enjoyable train throughout bowl season, however trying on the waiver choices right here suggests UW is on the best aspect. Louisville might be with out QB Tyler Shough and high WR Ja’Corey Brooks, in addition to some key defensive items. Winning a bowl recreation to cap off his first season in Seattle is one thing I believe Jed Fisch and the Huskies can unite round.
PICK: Washington (+2.5) will lose by lower than 2.5 factors or win outright
Duke in opposition to quantity 14 Old woman (7:30 p.m., ESPN)
January 2
Ole Miss could have most of its staff for the Gator Bowl and that is unhealthy information for Duke, which might be with out QB Maalik Murphy ranging from an already common offense. It might be a tall order for the defensive thoughts of Manny Diaz to maintain the Rebels’ offense in examine. For those that assume Ole Miss will not be tremendous motivated right here, contemplate this thought: One of Duke’s losses was a 28-27 OT loss to SMU, which was awarded a playoff berth over the Rebels. Knowing what we expect we find out about how Lane Kiffin’s thoughts works, cannot you see him beating Duke by as many factors as attainable to fireside off that postgame tweet with the 2 scores aspect by aspect? Of course I can.
PICK: Ole Miss (-14.5) wins by greater than 14.5 factors
CFP quarterfinals: n. 6 Pen State in opposition to quantity 3 Boise State (7:30 p.m., ESPN)
December thirty first
We noticed how a lot schedules mattered within the first spherical, as groups with schedule deficiencies Indiana and SMU had been drilled. This is a big step ahead from MWC opposition for Boise State. Penn State will welcome the Broncos by merely throwing Ashton Jeanty at them, because it probably will not be a superb match for the Heisman runner-up. Before the bracket launch we talked about how nicely it was shaping up for the 5 and 6 seeds contemplating their probably opponents within the quarterfinals, and it definitely did. Ask James Franklin and Penn State followers in August whether or not he would join a house recreation in opposition to SMU and a neutral-site recreation in opposition to Boise State for a visit to the CFP semifinals and each considered one of them would nearly laughably say sure 100 out of 100 occasions.
PICK: Penn State (-10.5) wins by greater than 10.5 factors
