Baylor -9.5 Over Washington 25 Dimes
Washington has a lot going against them in this mach-up. They have one of the worst defenses in college football, and they are going up against one of the most prolific offenses in the country, featuring Heisman winner Robert Griffin III. The Huskies also limped into the postseason as they lost three out of four, while their opponent, Baylor, won their last five. Expect the Bears to come out firing as tonight could be RGIII's last game in a Baylor uniform.
Prediction: 48-27 Baylor

SPORTS WAGERS

Notre Dame +4 over FLORIDA STATE

Florida State owns a dominant defense but the Seminoles' offense has struggled for much of the year and ended the season with a putrid 95-yard output at Florida. The Seminoles haven't managed much of a running game and EJ Manuel has been sacked far too often for a quarterback with his mobility. Florida State's offense is one of the most frequently penalized units in the nation while three-and-outs are more often than nots. The Notre Dame defense is a top-20 unit that should be able to do its part in this defensive struggle. The offense has faded down the stretch but if they wake up and perform like we’ve seen at times, they will get the job done here. Quarterback Tommy Rees struggled in November. He also has a propensity for turnovers but the Irish have enough playmakers to find the end zone a couple of times. That may be enough in what will be a low-scoring affair. Florida State does boast one of the nation's best overall special teams but in a tight game that neither team figures to break open, we'll take points with 187-game winner Brian Kelly over second-year boss Jimbo Fisher and the ‘Noles. Play: Notre Dame +4 (No bets).

BAYLOR –9½ over Washington

Art Briles is 0-4 as a bowl coach and Baylor is still basking in the glow of season-closing wins over heavyweights Oklahoma and Texas, along with the school's first-ever Heisman Trophy. Neither a flat start from the Bears nor an inspired effort from Washington would be a surprise and that makes this one difficult to pick a side on. Baylor has the firepower to make up ground quickly, especially on the Huskies' much-maligned defense. The Bears can also control the clock with a lead behind the power running of 1,300-yard rusher Terrance Ganaway. Washington has the better special teams and will land plenty of its own punches with record-setting quarterback Keith Price and workhorse Chris Polk but with a home crowd in their corner, the Bears will get Briles his first postseason victory in one of the bowl season's highest-scoring games. Play: Baylor –9½ (No bets).
