College Football Playoff - First Round
Tennessee Volunteers vs Ohio State Buckeyes

Spread: Ohio State -7.5 | Moneyline: Ohio State -275 | Total: 46.5

Scooter's Coffee Frisco Bowl
Memphis Tigers vs West Virginia Mountaineers

Spread: Memphis -4.5 | Moneyline: Memphis -194 | Total: 58.5

Bettors have been underestimating Memphis all season, but they're finally installed as chalk versus the Mountaineers. But the Tigers haven't really been tested this year, and West Virginia can put up points. This sets up as a flat spot for Memphis.

Prediction: West Virginia 45 - Memphis 38

Boca Raton Bowl
Western Kentucky Hilltoppers vs James Madison Dukes

Spread: James Madison -7 | Moneyline: James Madison -255 | Total: 51.5

Western Kentucky's perceived value has taken a hit, but this game will be much closer than the betting line implies.

Art of Sport LA Bowl
California Golden Bears vs UNLV Rebels

Spread: Cal -1.5 | Moneyline: Cal -113 | Total: 48.5

If not for Boise State, UNLV would be one of the country's top teams. A Golden Bears-friendly crowd won't help Cal in this one.

Prediction: UNLV 35 - Cal 28
R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl
Georgia Southern Eagles vs Sam Houston Bearkats

Spread: Georgia Southern -5.5| Moneyline: Georgia Southern -210 | Total: 48.5

Sam Houston made a late-season charge up the standings, coming up short in the CUSA. Still, they get past the Eagles at the Caesars Superdome.

Prediction: Georgia Southern 27 - Sam Houston 28
StaffDNA Cure Bowl
Ohio Bobcats vs Jacksonville State Gamecocks

Spread: Ohio -3.5 | Moneyline: Ohio -154 | Total: 54.5

Ohio plays a more complete game than Jacksonville State, but it won't be an easy task getting past the Gamecocks.

Spread: Notre Dame -7.5 | Moneyline: Notre Dame -285 | Total: 51.5

College Football Playoff - First Round
SMU Mustangs vs Penn State Nittany Lions

Spread: Penn State -8.5 | Moneyline: Penn State -320 | Total: 53.5

Clemson Tigers vs Texas Longhorns

Spread: Texas -11.5 | Moneyline: Texas -450 | Total: 51.5
