Arkansas State Red Wolves at Northern Illinois Huskies

The Arkansas Red Wolves have some coaching issues for this game. Their new head coach will be Gus Malzahn, the former offensive coordinator at Auburn. Hugh Freeze parlayed his sucess at Arkansas St. into the head job at Ole Miss. Malzahn will not be on the sidelines for this game, and he asked the inerim head coach David Gunn to return to the staff and coach this game. Talk about a lame-duck coach. Northern Illinois is all about Chandler Harnish. he led the MAC at rushing for 112.6ypg as well as passing for an additional 2,692 more. The Northern Illinois offensive line has not allowed a single sack all season. They will meet an imposing force in the Arkansas St. defense that ranks #20 of all teams and allows just 19.3ppg. They allowed just 26 in a game earlier this season at Virginia Tech, so the Wolves can play some defense. They held Tech's David Wilson (1,713 yards on the season) to 88 yards on 21 carries. red Wolves also have 16 INT's in their last 9 games. Brandon Joiner is a legit NFL draft pick on the Red Wolves defensive line, he had 12.5 sacks on the season and 15.5 tackles for a loss. Darryl feemster had 5 INT's on the season as well. Arkansas St. is 16-4-2 to the under in their last 22 vs a winning team and Northern Illinois is 7-1 to the under in their last 8 at a neutral site. We have seen 15 teams enter their bowl game allowing less than 20 points on the season this year, and despite some huge scores, just 2 of the 14 have played in a game totalling more than 65 points, and 10 of the 14 played to 57 or less. Value is on the under, and so is the play in this one. Play on the under.

SMU Mustangs @ Pittsburgh Panthers Saturday January 7, 2012 1:00 pm
The SMU Mustangs were at one time 5-1 but failed down the stretch to finish 7-5. The season was just the opposite for Pittsburgh who opened the season with 2 wins but then lost 4 out of 5 and rallied back to finish 6-6 to make a bowl game. This is a bit of a grudge match now for ... read more

West Virginia Mountaineers @ Clemson Tigers Wednesday January 4, 2012 8:00 pm
This Bowl is definately a disappointment Bowl for Clemson, not from the Bowl magnitude aspect, but from an opponent aspect. The Big East was down this season, and any of 5 teams could have won it, and none carry the noteriety of being a top team this season. With that said, Dana ... read more
