Bowl Season Expert Predictions for January 2

ESPN

Game | Mark Schlabach
TaxSlayer BowlLiberty Bowl | Georgia 20 – Penn State 17Arkansas 31 – Kansas State 28

[sc:NCAA240banner ] ESPN is siding with Georgia and Arkansas in these two tilts. The Bulldogs are currently looking at a -6.5 point favoriting (which is a word), while Arkansas is favored by -13. So, if you’re liking Mark’s picks, you’re take Penn State and Kansas State ATS.

Athlon Sports

Game | Mitch Light
Alamo Bowl | Oregon – win

Mitch Light at Athlon Sports likes Oregon over TCU. The Bullfrogs went 2-2 over their final four games in November and have a had a month off. This is a great thing though for ailing QB Trevone Boykin. Oh wait…Boykin isn’t playing after all. Trevone got into some hot water on Wednesday night when he allegedly struck a police officer at a bar. He’s been suspended indefinitely by the team along with wide out Preston Miller. The two will now miss the Alamo Bowl. Sadly Boykin is a senior and this would’ve been his final game as a Frog.

Long story short, with all that’s happened as of late, Mitch Light can now go Mitch Heavy with that pick.

Bleacher Report

Game | Ryan McCrystal
Cactus Bowl | Arizona State – ATS

Ryan McCrystal of Bleacher Report likes Arizona State over West Virginia and for good reason. The spread in this game is one point, meaning it’s going to be extremely close to call. With that said, the Sun Devils have the second-best rushing defense in the Pac-12 and second-most tackles for a loss in the country. Why is this good news? Well, the Mountaineers love to run the ball.

Combine that with this game being played in Phoenix, Arizona. ASU is not a bad choice any way you slice it.
