There are some bowl games that I'd love to give, but I've hesitated on some, due to questionable motives(Alabama, Oklahoma), and some due to surprising uneven match-ups (Arkansas, LSU).
Here are 7 bowl games you can bet on.
Straight up, its 35 bets.
If you wanna use Wisconsin as a base, its 15 bets.
If you wanna combine Wisconsin with another game you see strongly, its down to 5 bets.

Insight Bowl


Missouri(-1) - Iowa
Pretty good match up here.
Having watched both teams very carefully this year, Id have to give the edge to Missouri who match up better on the defensive side.

Bet on Missouri


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Pinstripe Bowl


Kansas State (-2.5) - Syracuse


I've liked what I've seen from Syracuse at times the past few years, but they look quite amateur in comparison to Kansas State.
I expect a double digit win here.

Bet on Kansas State

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Music City Bowl


North Carolina(-2.5) - Tennessee

I almost hesitate here, as the spread looks like some kind of trick.
When i saw the game, i figured (-7.5) at least for Tennessee.
There is no comparing the two teams.
Unless there's some kind of secret i don't know about, you should go all out on Tennessee here.

Bet on Tennessee

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Sun Bowl


Notre Dame - Miami (-3)

I enjoy watching the media every year at the start of the season how they try to sell off this Irish team as certain BCS champions.
lol, every year.... its a joke really.
Miami is a really good team this year, and should easily win this one.

Bet on Miami


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Chick-fil-A Bowl

Florida State - South Carolina(-3)

I love what they've down in Florida State this season....excellent team.... I would have given them against most other teams, however, they match up against one of the best schools this season.
South Carolina is one serious team, and I'm afraid that Florida State is a little bit outmatched here.

Bet on South Carolina

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Rose Bowl

Wisconsin - TCU(-3.0)


If you're gonna use a base for these bets THIS IS THE GAME!
This is such a miss-match, its not funny.
I'm not going to go into detail about it, as I've had arguments about this under par TCU school all season.
lol @ TCU being the favorite.

Bet on Wisconsin

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

BCS Championship

Oregon - Auburn(-3)

lol @ Oregon playing in the BCS championship.
The rules are changing in college football, and in the future, small schools like Oregon will actually have to play a good school and win to get here.
Cam Newton is the shit!
If he wins the Heisman, he'll be the first worthy winner in a while.
If you haven't seen him yet, and you think its all hype, just watch this game.
Of course....

Bet on Auburn

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I'll add my quick thoughts here.

We had talked about the Auburn/Oregon game so you know how I feel, I agree with you all the way here.

I also can't wait to see Wisconsin Beat up on TCU. I was so happy when I saw this spread, I would have layed Wisconsin at 6.5 or better all day.

Miami Vs. Notre Dame is a really strong game as well. On the one hand you have the overhyped Irish, vs. a Miami team that I feel is on the rise big time.

Funny you mentioned the Missouri game, I bet it nice and early. The line has since come of the board, as the whole Iowa Program is about to get blown up, with the multiple arrests.

Definetely like the Tennessee play vs. North Carolina. I though Tennessee should have been the favourite. North Carolina at 2.5 should definetely be trying to lure people on to them.

Florida State game gave me a little uneasiness as they have definetely been coming on strong as of late. However I do feel South Carolina matches up really well against them, and should win this game by 10+.

Syracuse/Kansas State, I don't have a good read on this game. I may stay away, but I think I'm gonna trust the College Bowl Guru on this one.

I was looking at the Arkansas - Ohio State game, and the Texas A&M - LSU game.

Private message me your thoughts, if you don't want to make a public play.

Cheers
