Memphis Tigers vs No. 18 Tulane Green Wave (-13.5)
It's still a longshot for Tulane to make the College Football Playoff, but putting together a convincing win to close out their regular season won't hurt.

Prediction: Tulane 37, Memphis 20

Oregon State Beavers vs No. 11 Boise State Broncos (-18.5)
It's been hard to trust this Boise State team to cover the number as favorites. I don't envision they lose this matchup, but the Beavers keep it close enough.

Prediction: Boise State 32, Oregon State 22
Oklahoma State Cowboys vs No. 23 Colorado Buffaloes (-16.5)
Although they no longer control their own destiny, the Colorado Buffaloes are very much capable of putting together some style points in Week 14.

Prediction: Colorado 42, Oklahoma State 20
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets vs No. 6 Georgia Bulldogs (-19.5)
The Georgia Bulldogs have already punched their ticket to the SEC Championship Game. Still, the Bulldogs will want to put together a complete effort, and really don't want to keep this all that close.

Prediction: Georgia 35, Georgia Tech 14
No. 16 South Carolina Gamecocks vs No. 12 Clemson Tigers (-2.5)
The Gamecocks have played spoiler for large chunks of the season. That continues here against a Clemson Tigers squad still alive in the playoff mix.

Prediction: South Carolina 24, Clemson 20
No. 7 Tennessee Volunteers (-10.5) vs Vanderbilt Commodores
The Tennessee Volunteers know they need to come out on top in this matchup. Still, the Commodores present a real challenge in certain areas to keep this close.

Prediction: Tennessee 27, Vanderbilt 23

Michigan Wolverines vs No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes (-20.5)
The Ohio State Buckeyes have been waiting patiently for this one. As much as you'd like the Wolverines to be more competitive, the Buckeyes make them pay for defeating them in three straight seasons.

Prediction: Ohio State 35, Michigan 10

UTSA Roadrunners vs No. 25 Army Black Knights (-6.5)
After a disappointing showing last week against Notre Dame, the Army Black Knights bounce back with a strong effort in Week 14.

Prediction: Army 30, UTSA 22
No. 5 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (-7.5) vs USC Trojans
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish know they'll be hosting a College Football Playoff game if they come out on top in this matchup. That's exactly what they do here.

Prediction: Notre Dame 27, USC 17
Washington Huskies vs No. 1 Oregon Ducks (-18.5)
As much as there isn't a lot on the line for the Oregon Ducks in this matchup, they do enough to secure a blowout victory in home against Washington.

Prediction: Oregon 33, Washington 10

No. 14 Arizona State Sun Devils (-8.5) vs Arizona Wildcats
As much as the Wildcats can play spoiler here, I don't think the Sun Devils will let them stay close enough in this game to even think it's a real possibility.

Prediction: Arizona State 31, Arizona 20
Maryland Terrapins vs No. 4 Penn State Nittany Lions (-24.5)
The Penn State Nittany Lions can't afford to let their guard down here. Luckily for them, the Terrapins don't have a ton going for them at the moment.

Prediction: Penn State 37, Maryland 10
No. 8 Miami Hurricanes (-10.5) vs Syracuse Orange
As much as the Miami Hurricanes have the firepower to torch the Orange, I'm not convinced their defense holds up enough to make this a blowout.

Prediction: Miami 40, Syracuse 35
Auburn Tigers vs No. 13 Alabama Crimson Tide (-11.5)
This doesn't feel like the Alabama Crimson Tide program we're accustomed to. The Tigers have played spoiler on multiple occasions this year. Although that doesn't continue with the outcome, the Tigers keep it close enough to cover.

Prediction: Alabama 29, Auburn 21
California Golden Bears vs No. 9 SMU Mustangs (-13.5)
I like this line a lot. The SMU Mustangs have the world in front of them, and continue to highlight they very much deserve a spot in the playoff.

Prediction: SMU 33, California 17
No. 3 Texas Longhorns (-5.5) vs No. 20 Texas A&M Aggies
With a trip to the SEC Championship Game on the line, the Aggies show much more urgency than the Longhorns. The Aggies have the recipe, similar to Georgia, that can give this Texas team trouble.

Prediction: Texas A&M 27, Texas 24
Purdue Boilermakers vs No. 10 Indiana Hoosiers (-29.5)
After a disappointing showing against Ohio State, the Indiana Hoosiers conclude their regular season with a blowout win over the Boilermakers.

Prediction: Indiana 41, Purdue 10

Memphis Tigers vs No. 18 Tulane Green Wave (-13.5)

Prediction: Tulane 37, Memphis 20
