I deliberation it’s astir clip to chalk this 1 up arsenic a “season from hell” for Best Bets. We went 1-2 past week pinch BB sitting astatine 23-25 and it seems for illustration we conscionable can’t get complete nan hump. We did rally a spot connected our wide picks and vanished nan week 3-3 arsenic ever truthful we’re 48-48 connected nan season. Oh well, we ne'er discontinue present astatine Rock M Nation truthful I shall persist until nan bitter end. This week we’ll jump into immoderate of nan much nosy vessel lucifer ups and prevention nan adjacent information of playoff picks for adjacent week. Here we go:

California vs. Hawaii (-1.5)

This 1 is for each america shot knowers who find ourselves building play sets, doll houses, and successful my case, an full god**** trampoline erstwhile nan sun goes down connected Christmas Eve. Watching shot judge thumps immoderate cheesy Christmas movie while laboring for love, truthful you amended stake I’ll person this 1 connected done nan model arsenic I toil successful nan backyard. Other than enjoying nan tropical islands successful December, Cal doesn’t person a full batch to play for. They’ve mislaid their coach and person a caller one. I’m judge successful a period nan full unit will beryllium turned complete arsenic will half nan roster. On nan flip side, Hawaii has had their champion play successful astatine slightest a decade and are looking to decorativeness strong, each nan while sleeping successful their ain beds and not dealing pinch four-hour clip changes. Give maine nan Warriors.

Georgia Tech (+4.5) vs. BYU

Both teams are emotion beautiful disappointed successful being successful this game, moreover if it is nan prestigious Pop Tarts Bowl. BYU feels (erroneously) that they beryllium successful nan playoffs while Georgia Tech had a late-season illness leaving them retired of nan ACC title crippled and their ain changeable astatine nan playoffs. I’m taking nan Jackets present because I deliberation they will muck this crippled up capable to support it close, moreover if they don’t yet win. It should beryllium a fun, ugly, debased scoring game, which is conscionable really I consciousness aft I location a fewer popular tarts myself.

Virginia (+4.5) vs. Missouri

This 1 whitethorn look for illustration a spot of copium, but I’m not emotion ace assured successful nan Tigers’ chances successful nan Gator Bowl. If this was nan regular play and some teams were playing pinch their afloat compliment of players, I’d prime Mizzou. But without Pribula, 3 of nan team’s apical walk catchers and nan starring tackler, arsenic good arsenic nan position of some starring walk rushers up successful nan air… this 1 sounds for illustration it mightiness not spell Mizzou’s way. I deliberation nan Tigers are capable to tally nan shot efficaciously capable to enactment successful nan crippled and possibly moreover triumph a adjacent one, but 4.5 points is excessively galore to consciousness bully astir taking nan bully guys here.

New Mexico (+2.5) vs. Minnesota

Similar successful immoderate ways to nan Hawaii Bowl, nan Lobos are coming disconnected 1 of their champion seasons successful years while Mid-esota is beautiful meh arsenic always. The Gophers are nan much talented squad but I deliberation New Mexico comes retired fired up and wanting to adhd a P4 tegument to nan wall.

Pittsburgh vs. East Carolina (+9.5)

The Pirates are different 1 of nan astonishment G5 teams of nan twelvemonth arsenic they came retired of obscurity to compete for an AAC title crippled commencement down nan stretch. They aren’t a awesome squad by immoderate means, and Pitt surely has much talent, but I don’t spot nan Panthers’ discourtesy to people capable points to rustle retired East Carolina. I deliberation Pitt will win, but 9.5 points is simply a lot.

LSU vs. Houston (-2.5)

With nan authorities alteration already good successful nan works, I’m not rather judge what LSU has to play for successful nan Texas Bowl too pridefulness (and this squad hasn’t really shown a ton of that this season.) Houston has made a bully rebound nether Willie Fritz (to nary ballknower’s surprise) and this is simply a virtual location crippled for nan Cougars. I’ll return UH to triumph by astatine slightest a section goal.
