I'll be traveling to New Mexico while these games are being played, so the previews will be short and sweet. The Belk Bowl features NC State and Mississippi State. The cowbells of Mississippi State should ring often as the Bulldogs are led by Dak Prescott their prolific QB one more time. The senior QB should get the win, but the Wolfpack should be playing in front of a friendly crowd. Mississippi State is the 6 point favorite in Vegas.
POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR Aggies! Heh, heh, heh. A&M has lost not one, but two quarterbacks in the last two weeks as Kyle Allen and Kyler Murray have transferred. Head coach Kevin Sumlin may start the mascott Reveille at quarterback. Seriously, the Aggies seem to be self destructing, but they are an SEC team. Louisville is the 5 point favorite, but have also played multiple quarterbacks this year. The difference? Louisville's quarterbacks are staying at Louisville. Obviously, the story is if Sumlin can pull the remaining Aggies together to overcome the turmoil. If not, the Cardinals should win handily.
My son's first college football game as a student was watching USC destroy his Arizona State Sun Devils in Tempe on a fall night. USC can look really good, like they did on that September night, and then they can look pedestrian as they have in many other contests. Wisconsin is traditionally a smash mouth program while the Trojans are glitz and glamour. The Holiday Bowl is traditionally a fun contest full of scoring and drama. USC is the 3.5 point favorite. Look for their athletes to dominate the Badgers if they are mentally in the game.
