Independence Bowl (Shreveport)
UL-Monroe is in its first-ever bowl; they'll be excited and have lot of fan support- this is game Louisiana Tech didn't want to play in, due to their animosity with ULM. Faves won/covered last six Independence Bowls; MAC teams are 0-2 in this bowl the last nine years, losing 17-13/17-10. Ohio is playing in 5th bowl in last eight years, upsetting Utah St 24-23 in LY's Potato Bowl; Bobcats could be diappointed to be here after 7-0 start that included win at Penn State- they lost last three games, allowing 35.3 ppg- they're 1-2 as underdog this year. ULM stumbled when QB Browning was hurt, but he's back now; they're 4-3 vs spread as favorite this year, and also won at Arkansas, lost to Auburn/Baylor by combined total of 8 points. Ohio QB Tettleton is son of former big league catcher; he threw 16 TDs with only three INTs, but Browning (27 TDs, 7 INTs) is key to this game for ULM/ Sun Belt non-conference favorites are 6-3 vs spread this year, 1-1 in bowls; MAC dogs are 18-18, 1-2 in bowls.
Russell Athletic (Orlando)
This is worst Hokie team since an 8-5 team in '03; they lost 40-12/23-20 in BCS bowls last two years. Virginia Tech covered only 7 of its last 26 games (3-9 this year); they had just three offensive starters back from LY and it showed, going 3-5 SU in last eight games, covering two of eight as a favorite. Rutgers is 5-0 in bowls over last five years, but Schiano is now in NFL and Flood is first-time HC; Knights lost last two games to slip out of BCS game to here, but they've got lot of Florida kids, should still be motivated. Problem is, they scored total of 33 points in last three games, but they also covered three of four as underdog, with SU wins at USF/Arkansas/Cincinnati. Tech allowed 27+ points in all six losses this year; Rutgers scored 27+ in only two of its last eight games. ACC teams are 7-2 in this bowl last nine years; underdogs covered five of last seven, with average total in last three just 32.0.
Meineke Car Care (Houston)
Domed stadium has lent to high-scoring games in this bowl; average total in last four Car Care Bowls is 51.8. Favorites are 6-2-1 vs spread in this bowl last nine years. 6-6 Minnesota's best WR (walk-on) quit team and trashed coach on his way out door; Gophers are in a bowl for first time in three years- they've lost last four bowls, with three losses by 3 or less points. Minnesota scored 13.5 ppg in last four games. Texas Tech didn't play in bowl LY but is 4-1 in last five bowls, scoring 39 ppg in five games- they played three OT games in last six, winning two of three OT tilts. Tuberville bolted for Cincinnati, so yet another interim coach here. Big X teams lost four of last five appearances in this bowl, with Texas A&M winning here LY, in its last game as a Big X member. Tech (-7) beat Gophers 44-41 in bowl game six years ago, in only series meeting. Houston setting favors Tech; so does Minnesota's 2-6 spread record as an underdog. Big Dozen non-conference underdogs are 4-3 vs spread. -
Ohio Bobcats vs. ULM Warharks
Point Spread - Pick
Ohio Bobcats (8-4 SU, 4-8 ATS) vs. Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks (8-4 SU, 8-4 ATS)
Independence Bowl
Date/Time: Friday, December 28th, 2012, 2:00 p.m. EST
Where: Independence Stadium, Shreveport, La.
TV: ESPN/DirecTV 206
by Badger, Football Handicapper.
Point Spread: OU +7/Louisiana Monroe -7
Over/Under Total: 60
The ULM Warhawks will finally get a reward for their huge season-opening upset of Arkansas, their first-ever bowl appearance, when the Warhawks take on the Ohio Bobcats in the Independence Bowl in nearby Shreveport Friday, December 28th, on ESPN.
Louisiana-Monroe made headlines and turned heads everywhere in the college football world back on September 8th when they dropped then-No. 8 Arkansas in overtime, 34-31. The Warhawks then went on to give Auburn and Baylor everything they could handle the next two weeks despite losing, proving they weren't a flash in the pan and finally putting them on the college football map under coach Todd Berry after spending most of their time as an FBS program in the shadows (moved to FBS in 1994).
With confidence at an all-time high, the Warhawks tore through the Sun Belt Conference and finished the rest of the year at 7-2, earning a bid to the Independence Bowl and a chance at another program first … a bowl victory, if they can just get past the Bobcats in what will likely be a "home" game in front of a huge Louisiana crowd in Independence Stadium.
Hopes were really high in Athens, Ohio, this season since the Bobcats were returning a host of starters as defending Mid-American Conference champions. The Bobcats pushed those expectations even higher when they scored an upset of their own on opening weekend, defeating Penn State on the road in State College, Pa., 24-14.
Ohio was cruising along and looking at a repeat of MAC West champions into mid-October when injuries started to mount and those expectations took a tumble in the form of an upset loss on the road at Miami (OH). The Bobcats then went on to lose their final three games of the season to finish 8-4, in third-place in the MAC West and come limping into the Independence Bowl.
Once the matchup was announced in early December, oddsmakers set the opening point spread with Louisiana-Monroe as 7-point touchdown favorites. The money so far has been mixed enough on both sides that the number hasn't changed at all, although there are a scant few online sportsbooks currently listing the game at minus -7.5.
The over/under total opened at 60 and also has yet to move in either direction really. You might find a 61 in Las Vegas, since most of the early sharp action has been on the over, but for the most part the number has held at 60.
The early action on the total has favored the over for good reason, since both teams feature dynamic junior quarterbacks in Ohio's Tyler Tettleton and Louisiana-Monroe's Kolton Browning.
Tettleton, the son of former MLB catcher Mickey Tettleton, isn't the MAC's most accurate passer (62%, 2,513 yards, 16 TD), but he's an excellent decision maker in the Bobcats spread-option offense and he rarely makes mistakes (3 INT). Ohio has a very good running back in Beau Blankenship (1,500 yards, 11 TD) and a strong offensive front that helps the Bobcats run the ball for over 200 yards a game (202 ypg - 29th).
But if the Bobcats are going to get the win, Tettleton will have to throw it and try and take advantage of the Warhawks weak pass defense (allowing 272 ypg - 108th). With most of the Bobcats dangerous outside weapons graduated, Tettleton's favorite target has become Donte Foster (7 TD), who will have to have a big game against the Louisiana-Monroe secondary.
Browning leads the Warhawks spread-option attack, but unlike the Bobcats, the Warhawks prefer to pass-first with an average of 297 yards a game in the air (27th). Browning is dangerous (65%, 2,830 yards, 27 TD-to-7 INT) and a great leader, and especially important because when he missed two games in the middle of the season with a foot injury Louisiana-Monroe lost both games. Ohio's defense does a decent job against the pass (allow 230 ypg - 55th), but they'll face a tough task in stopping Warhawks receiver Brent Leonard. Leonard crossed the 1,000-yard mark and added 10 touchdowns in his 97 catches this season, but if Ohio chooses to double-team him they'll have to watch out for Je'Ron Hamm (14.9 ypc, 6 TD), who is probably the Warhawks best deep threat.
These two schools have never met before, so betting trends and playing histories are like most bowl game matchups … non-existent.
Ohio started the season as a great wager, but they went 1-7 ATS in the final eight games this year to bleed money for anyone silly enough to stay with them. In six of those eight games they were the favorites, but they closed the season as 6-point and 9.5-point underdogs and lost both of those games too (and failed to cover), so wager on Ohio in this game with caution. Ohio does seem to like playing on Friday though, going 8-2 ATS in their last 10 Friday night games and 4-1 ATS in their last five non-MAC games.
Louisiana-Monroe went a perfect 4-0 ATS in their non-conference games this year and are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games overall, but they haven't done well against MAC teams in the past going 0-4 ATS over the years.
The over is looking like an excellent wager, since it's 4-0 in Ohio's four games against a Sun Belt team, 8-3 in Ohio's last 11 non-conference games and also 6-0 when Louisiana-Monroe plays in non-conference too.
Badger's Pick to Cover the Point Spread: Picking a side in these "mid-major" conference bowl games is always a hard proposition. I truly believe that Ohio can not only cover, but also probably win this game straight up if they weren't playing so bad right now. Considering that Louisiana-Monroe is the very definition of Cinderella this year, I hate to go against them in this spot too. All of this leads me to think that maybe the best wager is the over, since I don't think either defense is well enough equipped to stop the other, even with three weeks to prepare. I'm taking the over of 60.Comment

Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs. Virginia Tech Hokies
Point Spread - Pick
Rutgers Scarlet Knights (9-3 SU, 7-5 ATS) vs. Virginia Tech Hokies (6-6 SU, 3-9 ATS)
Russell Athletic Bowl Preview
Date/Time: Friday December 28th, 2012. 5:30PM Eastern
Where: Florida Citrus Bowl Orlando, F.L.
TV: ESPN
by Jay, Football Handicapper.
Point Spread: Rut +2/VT -2
Over/Under Total: 41
Typically the Virginia Tech Hokies' goal each season is to play in South Florida at the Orange Bowl. After all Coach Frank Beamer has consistently kept Virginia Tech at the top tier of the ACC and the Hokies are usually in the midst of the ACC Championship hunt where the winner plays in the prestigious Orange Bowl. Well this year the Hokies are headed to South Florida but possibly not as far south as they had hoped. Following one of the worse seasons in the Frank Beamer era, the Virginia Tech Hokies will meet the Rutgers Scarlet Knights in the Russell Athletic Bowl in Orlando on Friday December 28th.
The Hokies had to rally this season to win their final two games to finish at 6-6 at earn a postseason bowl bid. Still, the 6-6 mark is the worse for a Virginia Tech team in 20 years dating back to the 1992 season. It is unclear whether Beamer is truly in the hot seat considering the type of prestigious program he has built in Blacksburg. However, Virginia Tech definitely wants to avoid ending the year with a losing record when they meet the Scarlet Knights this Friday night. Luckily the Hokies have a little history on their side considering ACC teams have won the last 8 of 9 pairings in the Russell Athletic Bowl.
For Virginia Tech to keep the ACC trend intact they will have to take down a solid Rutgers' team that is coming off a respectable 9-3 campaign and a share of the Big East Championship. The Scarlet Knights narrowly fell to Louisville 20-17 in the season finale. If a few things would have turned out differently in that game, the Scarlet Knights would have been headed to the Sugar Bowl. Instead, the Scarlet Knights will have a chance to win their 6th straight postseason bowl game when the meet the Hokies in Orlando.
Ironically this game will feature two teams with eerie similar identities. Both Rutgers and Virginia Tech have struggled tremendously on offense while riding their defenses all year. Rutgers especially has been horrible on paper averaging just 341 total yards (100th in FBS) per game. QB Gary Nova has battled consistency issues all season and as a result the offense has kept the ball on the ground more often than usual. Tailback Jawan Jamison has carried the team for 1,054 yards on the ground this season and he will likely be the key guy again for the Scarlet Knight's offense against Virginia Tech.
Still, Rutgers' strength this year has been the play of their defense that has held teams to just 321 total yards (14th in FBS) per game. Rutgers has a lot of talent on the defensive side of the ball and they are superb against the run. Virginia Tech's main issues this year has been the play of the offense. The Hokies have averaged just 391 total yards (71st in FBS) per game. Bud Foster's defense has been solid as usual holding opponents to just 344 total yards per game (24th in FBS). However, Virginia Tech has to find a way to move the football against one of the best defenses they have had the privilege of playing all year when they meet Rutgers.
One of the main factors surrounding the Hokies struggles on offense this season surrounds the play of QB Logan Thomas and a subpar running game. Virginia Tech has had the luxury of housing some really talented tailbacks over the last few years but have yet to find that breakout guy in the backfield this season. Thomas actually leads the team with 528 rushing yards. The coaching staff had a lot of high hopes for Thomas entering this year but the junior has not met those expectations throwing the football. Thomas has completed just 52% passing for 2,783 yards with 17 scores and 14 picks. Obviously the turnovers have been an issue and a big reason the Hokies' offense has been rather vanilla this year. It will be interesting to see what type of game plan Coach Beamer puts together and if he allows Thomas the opportunity to throw the ball often if the Hokies fail to have any success running the football. Somehow either Virginia Tech or Rutgers is going to have to find a way to break through on offense.
Jay's Pick to Cover the Point Spread: The total for this game is set very low at the 41 mark making it one of the lowest totals for the entire bowl season. However, I think this game will still go under that mark because both offenses have been pathetic down the stretch. I'll take my chances on the under 41. Good luck!Comment

SEASON RECORD: 53-36-1
Meineke Car Care Bowl: Texas Tech Red Raiders 31 – MINNESOTA GOLDEN GOPHERS 21 (9:00 ET 12/28) – The line opened with Minnesota as a 13-point underdog, and that has held for weeks. Texas Tech has an offense that throws it all over the place, while the Golden Gophers rank 11th in the land in pass defense. An ailing offense should find some consistency over the course of the next two weeks, and Minnesota should at least be able to stick inside of the number, knowing that it has gone 3-4 SU in seven bowl games, but has lost three of those games by three points or fewer.

24 points: Louisiana-Monroe over Ohio
AdvoCare V100 Independence Bowl (Dec. 28; Shreveport, La.)
Pick Center Matchup
Quarterback Kolton Browning and a talented set of receivers operate an up-tempo passing assault that produces right around 300 yards per game. An Ohio defense that's been thinned by injuries will have trouble countering the Warhawks' speed. Defensively, Monroe has been susceptible to big-play vertical passing attacks, but that's not the Bobcats' forte; none of Ohio's top seven pass-catchers average better than 12 yards per reception. The Warhawks undoubtedly would have preferred a matchup with Louisiana Tech, but they are still playing close to home in the school's first-ever bowl game against a program with a scant record of postseason success.

19 points: Texas Tech over Minnesota
Meineke Car Care of Texas Bowl (Dec. 28; Houston)
Pick Center Matchup
Texas Tech is one of the biggest favorites of the bowl season, but given the circumstances, a wide range of outcomes are possible and we can't let the Red Raiders ascend too far up the list just yet. Minnesota's pass defense has been the best-looking part of its team for most of the year, so in a sense the Gophers match up pretty well, but Seth Doege and Co. are vastly more talented than a Minnesota offense that's managed just 272 yards and 18 first downs in its past two games combined and can't claim a receiver with even 20 catches. Tech, though, is not likely to be too excited about another trip to a third-tier in-state bowl to face another heavy underdog from the lower half of the Big Ten standings. The departure of head coach Tommy Tuberville -- along with that of playcaller Neal Brown -- makes this a messy game to predict.
Texas Tech 34, Minnesota 24
10 points: Virginia Tech over Rutgers
Russell Athletic Bowl (Dec. 28; Orlando, Fla.)
Pick Center Matchup
Both teams feature excellent defenses and inefficient, self-destructive offenses. It's hard to see either side managing even 15 first downs, so we'll opt for the team with positive momentum and a coaching advantage. The Hokies ended the regular season by topping rival Virginia to keep Tech's 20-year bowl streak alive, while Rutgers choked away the biggest game in school history last time out.

Meineke Car Care Bowl: What bettors need to know
Minnesota Golden Gophers vs. Texas Tech Red Raiders (-13, 55.5)
MEINEKE CAR CARE BOWL OF TEXAS STORYLINES
1. Offensive line coach Chris Thomsen, who has seven years of coaching experience at Abilene Christian, will guide the Red Raiders following the surprise departure of Tommy Tuberville to Cincinnati. The good news is that some players, angered by Tuberville's decision to leave, said they want to take out their anger on Minnesota.
2. Beside stumbling to the finishing line on the field, Minnesota also had its share of issues off it. Wide receiver A.J. Barker, who had a team-best 30 receptions and seven touchdowns, quit the squad late in the season claiming mistreatment by coach Jerry Kill and the training staff over an ankle injury while backup quarterback Max Shortell announced he was transferring.
3. The Gophers, who scored 30 or more points in a game only three times this season, must find a way to slow down a high-scoring Red Raiders' offense that averaged 37.75 points and scored 41 or more points in a game seven times.
TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN.
LINE: Texas Tech opened around -12.5 and has been bet up to -13. The total opened at 57 and has been bet down to 55.5.
CONSENSUS: 66 percent of Covers Consensus players are on Texas Tech while 69 percent are on the over.
TRENDS:
* Golden Gophers are 4-1 ATS in their last five non-conference games.
* Red Raiders are 1-5 ATS in their last six Bowl games.
* Under is 7-3 in Golden Gophers' last 10 non-conference games.
* Over is 5-0 in Red Raiders' last five bowl games.
ABOUT MINNESOTA (6-6, 2-6 Big Ten, 5-7 ATS): Despite a 2-6 finish in the Big Ten that saw the Gophers outscored by a combined 64-24 in back-to-back regular season ending losses to Nebraska and Michigan State, Jerry Kill's squad is making its first appearance in a bowl game since losing to Iowa State in the 2009 Insight Bowl. Only seven seniors on the squad played in that contest so the Gophers, who went 3-9 in both 2010 and 2011, are happy to be here, especially the 13 players on the team that hail from Texas. Kill, who has had epilepsy for nine years, missed the second half of the season finale against Michigan State after suffering a seizure. The Gophers are solid on defense but have struggled badly on offense, ranking 111th nationally with an average of 317.5 yards. Freshman quarterback Philip Nelson, who took over the starting job for the final month of the season, completed only 50 percent of his passes and threw more interceptions (seven) than touchdowns (six).
ABOUT TEXAS TECH (7-5, 4-5 Big 12, 6-6 ATS): Like Minnesota, the Red Raiders also sputtered to the finish line, losing four of their last five games with the only victory a 41-34 double overtime victory over 1-11 Kansas. That win was sandwiched between losses to Kansas State, Texas, Oklahoma State and to Baylor in double overtime in the season finale. Senior quarterback Seth Doege passed for 3,934 yards and 38 touchdowns while completing 70.4 percent of his passes, including 81 to senior wide receiver Darrin Moore. Although the defense allowed almost 32 points per game in the wild, wild Big 12, it ranked a respectable 39th nationally in total defense allowing 367 yards per game.Comment

Independence Bowl: What bettors need to know
Ohio Bobcats vs. UL Monroe Warhawks (-7, 60)
ADVOCARE V100 INDEPENDENCE BOWL STORYLINES
1. It did not take long for either team to make a major splash on the national scene this season. One week after Ohio opened its season Sept. 1 with a victory at Penn State, Louisiana-Monroe started what would become a historic campaign with a win over then-No. 10 Arkansas. The Warhawks are playing in the first bowl game in program history. The Bobcats gained a bowl bid for the fourth straight time and the fifth time since 2006.
2. Both teams had some bumps in the road following their season-opening victories over major-conference opponents, most notably Ohio. The Bobcats gained a Top 25 ranking after going 7-0, but lost four of their last five, the last three by a combined score of 106-47.
3. Louisiana-Monroe lost only two of its last nine games. It is not a coincidence that those two games came with quarterback Kolton Browning on the sidelines with a foot injury. Since coming back, Browning has returned to form and enters this one on a roll. In his last two games of the regular season, the junior completed 77.8 percent (56-for-72) of his passes and accounted for six touchdowns, including two on the ground.
TV: 2 p.m. ET, ESPN.
LINE: Louisiana-Monroe opened as low as -6 and has been bet up as high as -7.5. The total opened at 60 and has moved to 61 points.
CONSENSUS: 56 percent of Covers Consensus plays are on UL Monroe while 54 percent are on the over.
WEATHER: There is a 60 percent chance of rain for Independence Stadium and temperatures are expected to be in the low 50s. Winds are expected to blow NNW at 6 mph.
TRENDS:
* Bobcats are 4-1 ATS in their last five non-conference games.
* Warhawks are 0-4 ATS in their last four vs. MAC.
* Over is 4-0 in Bobcats' last four vs. S-Belt.
* Over is 6-0 in Warhawks' last six non-conference games.
ABOUT OHIO (8-4, 4-4 MAC, 4-8 ATS): The Bobcats' 7-0 start was their best since 1968 and it came on the heels of a victory over Utah State in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl last season. However, to finish on a strong note again they will need to get over the late-season skid. In the finale against Kent State, Ohio's own mistakes hurt. Frank Solich's squad had two turnovers in the first quarter, both of which were returned for touchdowns. The Bobcats got the usual contributions from junior running back Beau Blankenship, whose 145 rushing yards gave him exactly 1,500 for the season, good enough to rank ninth nationally. Junior quarterback Tyler Tettleton was a steady presence under center. He had 16 touchdowns against only three interceptions and ran for four more scores. Ohio was invited to participate in the Independence Bowl after Louisiana Tech, which finished 9-3, did not immediately act on an invitation from bowl officials.
ABOUT LOUISIANA-MONROE (8-4, 6-2 Sun Belt, 8-4 ATS): Browning's primary target has been Brent Leonard, who ranks sixth nationally with 97 catches, 10 of which have gone for touchdowns. Leonard had 13 catches, including two on the game-winning drive in overtime, in the Warhawks' 23-17 victory over Florida International in the last game of the regular season. That was one of four overtime games for Louisiana-Monroe. They won three of them, including the opener against Arkansas, showing the late-game mettle that has made this the best Warhawks team since it joined what would become the FBS in 1994. This game will be played less than two hours away by car from the Warhawks' campus, making this a veritable home game for Todd Berry's team.Comment
