College Football
Russell Athletic Bowl
Miami vs Louisville
10:45 AEST
This will be Louisville's QB: Teddy Bridgewater's final game of his college carrer. There is something about this guy and he should go very high in next years NFL draft. Originally he commited to Miami. Which makes this game a little more interesting. If Miami concerntrate to much on " Getting after the QB" all day I think Teddy will make alot more plays. Miami already have a weak pass defense.
Louisville Defense is ranked very high in all aspects. Miami do have a high Octane Offense but they will not run over Louisville today. This will be a great game but Louisville will come out on top by at least a touchdown.
Later today is the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl at 2:15 AEST. Our recomended play here is on the UNDER 55.5
BET ON: Louisville -3.5
BET ON:Michigan/Kansas STate UNDER 55.5
Take note: The above tip is simply the author’s opinion, so bet at your own risk and always bet responsibly. Happy punting!
