The Independence Bowl is somewhat of a home game for UL-Lafayette, being played a few hours north of their campus in Shreveport. The 6-6 Ragin Cajuns are close to home and making their fifth straight bowl appearance, but the offshore sportsbooks still have them as TD underdogs against the Houston Cougars (7-5), who have one […]
In a perfect world the Armed Forces Bowl would go to a service academy school, in this case the Air Force Falcons (9-3) who are looking for their second straight double-digit win season. Getting this victory is not going to be easy though, as the Falcons find themselves over a FG underdog against the Baylor […]
The top two picks in the 2021 NFL Draft go head to head on Thursday night when Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars visit Zach Wilson and the New York Jets on the short week. Jacksonville (6-8) has been enamored with their #1 pick Lawrence as they control their own destiny a game back from […]
The New York Knicks (18-13) have the longest current win streak in the NBA at 8 games, but keeping it going gets a bit more difficult on Wednesday night playing on the back-to-back. Luckily for NYK their 132-94 win over the Warriors on Tuesday night was a pretty easy one, but the Toronto Raptors (13-18) […]
Hierarchy in the East will be better sorted out on Wednesday night when the top team in the conference the Milwaukee Bucks (22-8) visit the #3 Cleveland Cavaliers (21-11).

Liberty had climbed into the top 20 after an 8-1 start to the season, but a 36-33 loss to UConn in week 11 sent them into a tailspin of three straight losses to end the year. Liberty (8-4) has faded so much that they are underdogs on Tuesday night in the Boca Raton Bowl against […]
Eastern Michigan has one bowl win in program history, 30-27 against none other than the opponents they meet on Tuesday, San Jose State in the 1987 California Bowl. Otherwise the Eagles are 1-5 in bowl games including last year’s 56-20 loss to Liberty in the LendingTree Bowl. While revenge from the loss from 35 years […]
The offshore sportsbooks aren’t expecting Monday’s Myrtle Beach Bowl to be very competitive, setting Marshall as over a dozen point favorites. The Thundering Herd (8-4) did have one of the best defenses in the country this season and their signature win is an upset at Notre Dame, but 6-6 Connecticut was hot down the stretch […]
Could this be the last Monday Night Football game at Lambeau Field for Aaron Rodgers – at least as a member of the home team? The 5-8 Packers need to win out the rest of the year to have any shot at a possible wild card berth, and even then they need help so this […]
The big goal for Dallas on Sunday is to avoid looking ahead. After the visit to Jacksonville the Cowboys head home next week for a clash with Philadelphia who they trail in the NFC East by two games. That will also be the final home game of the regular season Cowboys, so it will be […]
