Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Per the ap on my phone and the worldwide leader, here are the match-ups sorted by line from most favorable for the B1G to least favorable to the B1G:

• Ohio State -6.5 vs Utah in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena
• Wisconsin -6 vs ASU in the SRS Distribution Las Vegas Bowl in Vegas
• Minnesota -5 vs WVU in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl in Phoenix
• Maryland -3.5 vs VaTech in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl in the Bronx
• Michigan State -2.5 vs Pitt in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl in Atlanta
• Penn State -1 vs Arkansas in the Outback Bowl in Tampa
• Iowa +3 vs Kentucky in the Vrbo Citrus Bowl in Orlando
• Purdue +5 vs Tennessee in the Music City Bowl in Nashville
• Michigan +7.5 vs UGA in the CFP Semi-Final Orange Bowl in Miami
• Rutgers +14.5 vs Wake in the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl in Jacksonville

I see this as three solid favorites (tOSU, UW, MN), four basically picks (UMD, MSU, PSU, IA), two solid underdogs (PU, M), and one HUGE underdog (RU). 

We are favored in six but that probably works out to about 5-5 on something like this:

• 2-1 as solid favorites
• 2-2 as picks
• 1-2 as underdogs

So my guess is going to be 6-4 but I think 5-5 is much more likely than 7-3. 

I'm not sure I can assign one or even two reasons to this  but I have yet to watch a snap of the bowl games and I'm not sure I'll have any as appointment viewing before 12/31.

TBH, I'm the same way.  I haven't watched a snap yet.  There are a few reasons:

• I was an early cord-cutter so I don't get ESPN and LOTS of bowls have migrated there.  
• I have kids now so it isn't easy to just run to the bar to watch.  
• With COVID/distancing that limits the ability to see non-broadcast games as well.  

I'll probably watch UCLA/NCST tomorrow because it is on FOX.  


On Wednesday Maryland plays at 2:15 but I'll be at work.  If I didn't have kids and it was a close game I'd probably stop at a bar after work to watch the end but no.  

Same for Purdue/TN on Thursday at 2.  

MSU/Pitt Thursday at 7pm is a game I would definitely watch if it was on broadcast but it isn't so I'll miss it.  

I'm off work Friday:

• Rutgers vs Wake at 11am I would watch if it was broadcast but it isn't.  
• I have no need to see Bama slaughter Cincy.  
• I'd watch Michigan/Georgia if it was broadcast but it isn't.  I *MIGHT* run to a friends' house for the end if it is close.  

Saturday I'll watch Iowa/Kentucky because it is on ABC then I'm going to a party for the RoseBowl.  

I just started on bowl season, with the Detroit bowl...

I was having trouble getting into it before Christmas, especially with teams I couldn't care less about. Not that i care about WMU or Nevada, but I had nothing better to do than drink coffee and watch this.

4-6.

I am going with 8-3,  assuming the NCG counts as a bowl.

Out of curiosity is that 8-2 with a CG loss to Bama or 7-3 with a CG win over Bama?

The latter.

Looking pretty good so far.  Our teams are now 2-0 and while both winners were favored, they both comfortably beat the spread:

• Minnesota was favored by 5 over WVU, won by 12.  
• Maryland was favored by 3.5 over VaTech, won by 44.  

Today we have:

• Purdue as a (now) 7.5 point underdog vs Tennessee in Nashville.  
• Michigan State as a (now) 3.5 point favorite vs Pitt in Atlanta.  
• Wisconsin as a (now) 6.5 point favorite vs ASU in Vegas.
