Rotation # 111-112
BYU/Texas Tech Under 49.5
Texas Tech has played solid defensive football, especially over the last month, and top-notch football across all three phases. BYU has also played well, and we will see if the moment is too big for freshman QB Bear Bachmeier. LJ Martin is an outstanding running back who should get a lot of carries for the Cougars. Senior QB Behren Morton leads Texas Tech. The Red Raiders have multiple running backs who can wear down defenses. Both defensive front sevens can put pressure on the quarterback, and both secondaries are talented enough to break up potential big plays. It will be an early kickoff for both teams. It is hard to understand how the teams closest to the West Coast are playing the earliest game on the card today. Look for a slow start and a feeling-out process. As long as there are no defenses or special teams scores, we should be in for a lower-scoring game. Take the Under.

Rotation # 115
Georgia -1.5 over Alabama
Kirby Smart has taken over as the SEC’s top coach, having won the title in 2 of the last 3 years. Both teams are capable of winning the SEC Title, but it’s hard to overlook all the injuries the Crimson Tide has. Alabama could be short-handed at running back, as Jam Miller’s status is in question. Alabama has been hit hard by the injury bug on the front-seven, with multiple starters missing significant time. LT Overton is missing today’s game, and the Tide has been without Jah-Marien Latham and just got back Qua Russaw, who is not in peak game shape. The Bulldogs should run the football with Nate Frazier and Chauncey Bowens. The improved running ability of QB Gunner Stockton could make all the difference today. Alabama has a great secondary, but the Bulldogs have a talented receiver room. Look for Kirby Smart to control the clock and win a tight defensive battle. Take Georgia.

Rotation # 119
Indiana +4 over Ohio State
Both teams have outstanding defenses. Both teams have quarterbacks completing over 70 percent of their passes and outstanding running games. We couldn’t have asked for a better matchup. Indiana coach Curt Cignetti has done nothing but win in his two seasons, and while Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day blocked out all the noise over the last few years, he silenced his critics by winning the National Title last season. Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza has more experience than Ohio State QB Julian Sayin, and running backs Roman Hemby and Kaelon Black are two seniors looking to continue on their journey to play for a national title. Ohio State’s top running back, Bo Jackson, is just a freshman. The Buckeys have done a tremendous job this year with two new coordinators taking over without missing a beat. Fan bases always expect to go back to a national title, but there were plenty of excuses the Buckeyes had if they didn’t get back to excellence. The window for Indiana is now. Look for the Hoosiers to keep the game within the number. Take Indiana.

Rotation # 118
Virginia -4 over Duke

Virginia/Duke Over 57.5
Duke QB Darian Mensah is fun to watch. The Blue Devils are never out of a game the way he throws the ball. It’s a miracle in itself that Duke made this game, where so many things had to bounce just right. For as much as I would like to take Duke, you can’t get over how unprepared the Blue Devils’ secondary can be at times. Virginia QB Chandler Morris has plenty of weapons that can take the top off the Blue Devils’ defense. The Cavs hit a transfer portal homerun, finding the likes of running backs J’Mari Taylor and Harrison Waylee from lesser-known football conferences. Virginia recently beat Duke on the road in a game that was more of a beatdown than the final score indicated. There is no doubt that the Cavs are the better program. I don’t know why the oddsmakers made them smaller favorites on a neutral site, given how they dominated the Blue Devils on the road. We will also take the Over in this game, as the only way Duke can stay in the game is to score. They are incapable of winning a defensive battle. Look for the Cavs to pull away early and for Duke to get points late to help make this a higher-scoring game. The winds will be a non-factor tonight. Take Virginia. Take the Over. No Parlays.

OHIO STATE (-4) over Indiana

Sharp money on Indiana has caused Ohio State to drop from a 6?-point favorite to -4 in the Big Ten title game. But CBS Sportsline handicapper Bruce Marshall made the Buckeyes his best bet, and Whitelaw took them on the money line (-190).

“It’s never as easy as it looks, but the Buckeyes are making it look routine for coach Ryan Day on their 16-game win streak while covering 14 of those games,” Marshall said. “Can’t forget last season at the Big Horseshoe, when the Buckeyes took control after a slow start and waltzed home 38-15 winners (over the Hoosiers). Closer this time, but not close enough for Indiana.”

Texas Tech (-12?, -115) over BYU

Texas Tech whipped BYU 29-7 on Nov. 8, and pro sports bettor Chuck Edel and WizardSportsPicks.com handicapper Dana Lane expect a similar result in the rematch in the Big 12 title game.

“I believe in betting defense, and Texas Tech owns one of the nation’s elite units,” said Lane, who took third in the Review-Journal College Challenge (36-33-1 ATS). “My power rankings have the Red Raiders at No. 1 after holding opponents to just 7.2 points per game over their last five. The Red Raiders are 11-1 ATS this season. No need to overthink it. This is a defense bettors can trust.”

BYU (+13) over Texas Tech

GamblersWorld.net handicapper Chip Chirimbes, who won the RJ College Challenge (39-30-1) after winning the RJ College Bowl Challenge (10-3-2) last season, made the Cougars his best bet, as he projects Texas Tech to win but not cover.

“Knowing what they are up against this time around, the Cougars will claw their way to a point-spread win,” he said.

TULANE (+2?) over North Texas

South Point studio host Alex White, who took second in the RJ Challenge (37-31-2) for the second straight year, is backing Tulane in the American Conference title game.

“I am taking the points with the better defense,” said White (@alexwhitee). “North Texas’ offense is electric … but their defense ranks 79th in the country in yards allowed and 72nd in points allowed.”

Ohio State-Indiana

Sharp bettors are backing No. 2 Indiana over No. 1 Ohio State in Saturday’s Big Ten title game. The Buckeyes opened as 6?-point favorites in the battle of 12-0 teams but the line has moved to 5?.

“We definitely have some sharp money on the ’dog in that game,” Salmons said. “We had some takers at 6? and even some at 6, so we’re at 5? right now.”

Ohio State beat Indiana 38-15 last season at home and has won 16 straight games while going 14-2 ATS.

“This will be by far the hardest game they’ve played all year,” Salmons said. “I think Ohio State’s better but there’s definitely been some sharp money that would hold me back a little bit (from betting on the Buckeyes). It could be a close game where Ohio State wins but doesn’t cover.”

Georgia-Alabama

Georgia has shot up to a 2?-point favorite over Alabama in the SEC title game after the line opened at pick ’em at Circa. The Crimson Tide beat the Bulldogs 24-21 as 2?-point underdogs at Georgia on Sept. 27.

“I think the main reason it’s moved up is they like to take whoever lost the first game and bet the other team in the second game,” Salmons said.

Alabama has won and covered the last three meetings with Georgia.

BYU-Texas Tech

Texas Tech shot up to a 13?-point favorite over BYU in the Big 12 title game after the line opened at 11?. The Red Raiders, who have the best spread record in the country at 11-1, crushed the Cougars 29-7 on Nov. 8 as 13?-point home favorites.

“Texas Tech’s defense has been phenomenal this year,” Salmons said. “For BYU to cover that game, they’re going to need to score 20 points and I don’t think they’re capable of that. So, I’m not surprised that line went up.”
